This week, Drewby and Yergy head to the Tampa Bay area to discuss the case of Phoebe Jonchuck, a beautiful 5-year-old girl who was tossed off the Dick Misener Bridge into Tampa Bay by her then 29-year-old father, John Jonchuck. That same day, John had been suffering from religious delusions, driving all around Tampa and St. Petersburg looking for a priest to baptize him. These delusions were sparked by long term substance abuse, mental health issues, and an obsession with an antique Swedish bible.
