The 2000 Quintuple Murders In Marin & Contra Costa Counties Perpetrated By Self-Proclaimed "Prophet Of God" Glenn Along with Followers Justin Helzer & Dawn Godman

In the summer of 2000, 9 duffel bags were fished out of Northern California's Mokelumne River which contained the disarticulated body parts of 3 individuals, while during the same week in a seemingly unrelated case in the next county over, 2 individuals were shot to death in a small studio apartment in Woodacre, California.  Investigators would eventually link both cases to one depraved individual, a self-proclaimed prophet of God who was on a mission to destroy Satan and the LDS church.

The Murders Of Paul Vados & Kenneth McDavid Planned & Orchestrated by Septuagenarians Helen Golay & Olga Rutterschmidt [Part 3]

This is the third part of a 3 part series. Helen Golay & Olga Rutterschmidt met in the 1980s at a local Hollywood gym.  Before long, the two ladies became friends, and over time, that friendship grew into a complex, love/hate relationship as they came to find that they had much in common in terms of how they wanted to live their lives and earn their livings.  They teamed up to become a pair of unlikely con artists who befriend and took advantage of men.  After two decades, the tenuous relationship began to fracture as their crimes grew much more serious and the mistrust between them grew much deeper.

This is the second part of a 2 part series. The Murdaugh Family maintained a strong hold on the Solicitor's office in the Low Country Area of South Carolina for a Century.  That is until the 2019 actions of 19 year old Paul Murdaugh threaten to topple the Family Dynasty.  By the summer of 2021, his father Alex was realizing the boat crash Paul was responsible for that killed 19 year old Mallory Beach was on the verge of not only bringing down the family, but also expose the years upon years of financial crimes (and possible murders) that were about to be linked to him.  So in a convoluted and misguided effort to throw everyone off and save himself, Alex orchestrated the brutal murders of both his wayward son and his wife AND followed that up with a half-hearted "suicide" attempt of his own.  We covered this story back in January of 2022...this is how Alex's story has finally come to an end - for now.

The 1984 Murder of Miramonte High School Student 15 year old Kirsten Costas Perpetrated By Classmate Bernadette Protti

Kirsten Costas was on top of the world going into summer vacation 1984.  She would be joining the cheerleading team in the upcoming fall, she was on the varsity swim team, and she had just been recruited to join the school's elite social club for girls - The Bob-O-Links, or Bobbie's for short.  Her life would be tragically cut short on a Saturday night out to what Kirsten thought was an initiation dinner for the Bobbie's, and the identity of the killer would remain elusive for months.  When investigators finally arrested a suspect, the entire community of Ornida, California was stunned to find out who was behind the brutal killing.
