SEASON FINALE BABY! This is the end of our first season of Teachers Talk Crime.  Thank you so much for the amazing support as we ventured through this together. You stuck with us as we learned and as we are still learning. So, THANK YOU!

This is episode 34 and it is literally unpredictable. As Ashleigh went through this case I thought I had it solved, but boy was I wrong. This is the case of Sharon Carr, who is better known as "The Devil's Daughter". Sharon is the youngest female murder in Britain. She brutally murdered Katie Rackliff, an 18 year old girl leaving a night club. Sharon was only 12 years old when she committed this horrific murder.  Listen as we go through this tragedy.

We took a survey a few weeks ago and our results showed that you guys would be open to a case like this and our take on the matter, so we are giving it a go. This is episode 32! 

The Cleveland Elementary School shooting was a school shooting that took place on January 29, 1979, in San Diego, California. Although no children lost their lives the principal and a custodian were killed due to the actions of Brenda Spencer. Brenda Spencer is America's first female school shooter. She used a . 22-caliber rifle from her family's house across the street. This case goes deeper then anyone could have imagined and it still leaves people with questions today.

We have been tagged in this IG video twice and are so incredibly stoked because we all know that students don't learn in government-funded classrooms. The beautiful and immaculate classrooms that you see all over social media are actually funded by teachers themselves! With that being said, we give a major shout out to @teacherwishlists on IG and Tik Tok. She's posted TENS OF THOUSANDS of teacher wish lists with the hopes that teachers will be gifted what they need to kick off the school year right with their kiddos. Click here for the massive list of teachers' amazon wish lists. Anything helps :) Also, shoutout to one of our listeners, Miss Rider! She's number 502 on the list <3

It's not your typical happy hour episode, but nonetheless we are bringing you a case that will have you all over the place.  There is no guest today, so you are stuck with us again! Enjoy!

Today's case is brought to you by Brooke. This is the case of Raymond Payne, an English teacher that was convicted of the murder of Debbie Gama, his high school student. This case brings us all the way to 2020, the height of the pandemic and please hang on tight this case has a major turn.

Drink of choice for this full moon was:
Diet Dr. Pepper (Brooke is trying "sober curious")
High Noon Pool Pack 

Episode 30 and I don't know why this number is hitting as hard as it is, but I am so proud we have made it 30 episodes. Ahhhhh!!

Today's episode is brought by Brooke and be warned she goes on a rant at the end (but one worth having). This is the case of Pedro Bravo, who murdered his best friend Christian Aguilar over love. Pedro was charged with first-degree murder and the other six counts in August 2014. He still claims he is innocent while in prison, although the evidence says otherwise.

Thank you for all the emails and DM's. We love hearing from you. Keep em' coming and welcome to episode 27. We are bringing you some cross curriculum today as we discuss history and the justice system.  

Episode 27 is brought to you by Ashleigh and warning we get heated in this case today and rightfully so. George Stinney Jr. from South Carolina was wrongfully convicted and executed at 14 years old for the murder of two young girls, Betty June Binnicker, 11, and Mary Emma Thames, age 7. After more than 70 years George Stinney Jr. has officially been exonerated (2014), but that will never be enough to undo what was done. The young girl's real killer was never found or convicted and tragically three beautiful lives were lost.
