At least 4 children in Oakland County, Michigan, between 1976 and 1977 were the victims of a serial killer(s). Police were never able to positively ID a suspect - though there have been multiple theories about who the “Oakland County Child Killer” may have been. | The Zodiac Killer has been ID’d??? | Squid Games might be my new favorite thing to ever exist | Suspect Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/706503343497109/?ref=share | Suspect IG: https://instagram.com/suspectpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link

Joining me this week is my lovely friend, Hannah Moore, criminology major. Katie and Hannah spend the episode picking apart the Gabby Petito timeline and investigation details - a case that has quite literally gone viral due to social media. We dissect Brian Laundrie’s behavior from Moab Police Dept’s body cam footage and discuss domestic violence awareness in depth - what we think really took place over the entire timeline. Making sure to bring awareness to other cases not getting the same amount of media coverage, Katie and Hannah also discuss the suspicious missing person’s case of Daniel Robinson. | Daniel Robinson GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/6e2d7a6f | Jenn & Kyle Bethune GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/cd337f2b | Miranda Baker Tiktok Story: https://6abc.com/gabby-brian-laundrie-petito-miranda-baker-hitchhiker/11032487/ | Bethune Youtube Video Story: https://nypost.com/2021/09/20/travel-blogger-jenn-bethunes-footage-of-gabby-petitos-van-helped-cops-find-her-body/ | If you, or someone you know, is or has, experienced domestic violence, please contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1.800.799.7233 or visit https://www.thehotline.org for more information on how to help. | Suspect Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/706503343497109/?ref=share | Suspect IG: https://instagram.com/suspectpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link

In one of the deadliest mass shootings in American history, 49 people lost their lives during the attack on the LGBTQ community at Pulse Nightclub in 2016 - while others were critically injured and would be traumatized for the rest of their lives. Taking place just a few hours from my hometown, this case has always haunted me - I remember minute for minute of the day it happened. Before we dive into this week’s case, let’s talk about everybody’s new obsession: Love Island. 3 words: I can’t stop. | Human Rights Campaign: www.hrc.org #LoveWins | Suspect Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/706503343497109/?ref=share | Suspect IG: https://instagram.com/suspectpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link

This week’s case is a bit tough for me to get through - as you’ll see. We’re talking the Tulsa Race Massacre this week, going back to 1921. Even though it took place in 1921 - it’s impacted us even in 2021, crucial information to know and horrific history. Before starting we talk about Bill Cosby and his recent release from prison following sexual assault allegations.

This week we’re discussing Cindy James, the bizarre death from 1989, that officials claim was a suicide. Reddit threads seems to have multiple different theories on what they think actually took place. The one thing I’ll say: bizarre at the very least. Also updates in the beginning of the episode on Derek Chauvin sentencing and Aiden Fucci evidence and trial. | Suspect Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/706503343497109/?ref=share | Suspect IG: https://instagram.com/suspectpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link

This week we’re talking Sam Little - a case I didn’t hear about until within the last year, but one that definitely blew my mind. Claiming to have murdered over 90 women, and investigators have connected him to over 60 cases - this was a wiiiild case to research personally. Let’s talk about it. | Suspect Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/706503343497109/?ref=share | Suspect IG: https://instagram.com/suspectpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link

This week we’re talking about the McStay family murders. How does a family of 4, in 2004, vanish without a trace? *trigger warning*: death of children | Tristyn Bailey case link: https://www.firstcoastnews.com/article/news/crime/one-week-later-what-we-know-about-the-tristyn-bailey-investigation-aiden-fucci-st-johns-county-durbin-florida/77-76864383-f983-48d4-bfab-214d5083176b | Suspect Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/706503343497109/?ref=share | Suspect IG: https://instagram.com/suspectpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link

Recorded pre-conviction of Derek Chauvin. Discussing Chauvin’s trial and closing arguments, as well as recent events - including the death of Daunte Wright. Katie then jumps into the case of Danny Rolling, aka who the “Scream” movies were based on. Terrorizing the city of Gainesville in 1990 over a span of 4 days, and murdering 5 students from the University of Florida. This hit a little too close to home for Katie, this week, considering Gainesville is just about an hour or so away from her hometown. Yikes.

Emergency episode. I felt as though it was extremely crucial and critical to discuss the conviction of Derek Chauvin. A lot of us have had anxious hearts for the last year, and though the conviction is a step in the right direction - we have so much more work to do. Justice and accountability - 100% of the time. Let’s talk about the conviction, sentencing guidelines in Minnesota, and maybe what we can expect from this case to come. Sending everybody tuning in: a lot of love. | Suspect Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/706503343497109/?ref=share | Suspect IG: https://instagram.com/suspectpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link
