A mother’s role is to protect her children and to keep them safe in all situations.  Sometimes though, things go very wrong within the family unit.

Australian mother Jasmine Thomas had been struggling following the pandemic.  She suffered from depression after the births of her two children and the pandemic made her increasingly paranoid.  One night in 2022, she told her husband that she was taking their two daughters to McDonald’s.  After getting McDonald's, Jasmine drove her children to a remote area off the highway and set the vehicle on fire with her and the children inside.  All three of them died within minutes.

Texas woman Savannah Kriger was going through a messy divorce with her husband Brian.  A custody hearing regarding their son Kaiden was scheduled in March 2024.  On the day of the hearing, Savannah went to Brian’s home and destroyed every piece of clothing that he owned.  She then shot bullets through her wedding portraits and laid her wedding dresses out on the bed.  She picked up Kaiden from daycare and made him call Brian to say goodbye.  She then shot her son before taking her own life.

In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the cases of two mothers who murder – Jasmine Thomas and Savannah Kriger.
