This week, Drewby and Yergy hop on I-95 and head up to Bangor, Maine, to discuss the case of Braxtyn Smith, a 10-year-old boy who died in February of 2024 following two years of severe, prolonged abuse, starvation, and physical restraint at the hands of his family. Because he was homeschooled and socially isolated, the extreme neglect went unnoticed by authorities until he was brought to a hospital weighing only 48 pounds. His tragic case resulted in a series of major criminal convictions and has triggered a sweeping state-level investigation. But as Maine residents, we have to ask ourselves... How the hell did this happen? AGAIN.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Washington state to discuss the crimes of Jack Owen Spillman III. Known as the "Werewolf Butcher," Jack is a serial killer and rapist from Spokane, Washington, who is currently serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole at the Washington State Penitentiary. In April 1995, Jack murdered 48-year-old Rita Huffman and her 15-year-old daughter, Mandy Huffman, in East Wenatchee, Washington. Following his arrest for those crimes, he also confessed to the 1994 slaying of 9-year-old Penny Davis in Tonasket, Washington. Jack broke into homes, brutally slaughtered his victims, and subsequently engaged in gruesome post-mortem sexual mutilation and theatrical staging. He once told a cellmate that he imagined himself as a werewolf stalking its prey. His personal journals, later recovered by investigators, detailed dark fantasies of consumption, transformation, and primitive animalistic dominance. While in custody, he openly declared to a cellmate that his ultimate ambition was to become "the world's greatest serial killer."

NOTE: Just a reminder... We're relaying a story to you that has nothing to do with our own personal opinions. Local, state, federal, and international laws have nothing to do with us. Had Kara been smoking anything other than weed, that would have been reported. This is a double homicide, and those details just don't get missed. Whether you personally believe weed had anything to do with it isn't up to any of us to decide. That's the UK Court's business. If she's lying, I then guess that didn't seem to work out for her, now did it?

This week, Drewby and Yergy head over to the UK to discuss the case of Marley and Elijah Thomas, two young boys who were drowned in a bathtub by their mother, Kara Alexander, after an evening of smoking "skunk," which is a catchall for strong cannabis strains. On December 16th, 2022, the two boys were found dead at their home on Cornwallis Road in Dagenham, East London. Their father, Selvin Thomas, became concerned after failing to reach Kara and went to the house, where he discovered the boys' bodies lying together in a bunk bed. Post-mortem examinations determined that Marley and Elijah died from either drowning or suffocation. During her trial at Kingston Crown Court, Kara denied the murders. She claimed she had put the boys in the bath and fell asleep, arguing that they had "accidentally" drowned. Prosecutors successfully dismantled this defense, proving the children could not have drowned accidentally at the same time and that she had deliberately held them underwater.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Philadelphia, PA, to discuss the case of 4-year-old Zya Singleton. On October 30th, 2019, emergency services responded to a home in Philadelphia's Fairmount neighborhood. Zya's guardian, Samiya Brown, claimed that the toddler had accidentally fallen out of a second-story window while playing with a cat. Zya was hospitalized in critical condition and tragically died from her injuries and a severe blood infection on November 3rd. Medical professionals and the city medical examiner quickly determined that the window-fall story was a lie. An autopsy revealed that Zya had endured years of horrific, systemic physical abuse. Her injuries included severe malnutrition, multiple broken bones, acid, cigarette, and thermal burns, human bite marks, as well as homemade stitches that Samiya had haphazardly sewn into Zya's skin, which ultimately led to sepsis. The Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office described the tragedy as "potentially one of the worst cases of child abuse anyone has ever seen." Samiya was immediately arrested and denied bail. In May of 2022, she avoided a first-degree murder trial by pleading guilty to third-degree murder, endangering the welfare of a child, and possessing an instrument of crime. Zya’s biological mother, Jasmine Singleton, had voluntarily given custody of Zya to Samiya, who was a family friend and married to her stepbrother, around two years prior to the murder. Jasmine did so because she lacked the immediate financial means to care for her daughter and wanted to prevent Zya from entering the formal foster care system.

This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss two cases. The first is about a newborn baby named Jeremiah who was tragically found dead inside a construction site porta potty in Gretna, Louisiana. The child's mother, 37-year-old Lakesha Lemelle, was indicted for second-degree murder by a Jefferson Parish grand jury. It was determined at autopsy that baby Jeremiah was a full term, 7.2 pound infant who was born alive. His cause of death was listed as asphyxia due to drowning in raw sewage. The second story is about a little boy whose name we don't have, and that's because he made it out alive... But not before the new woman in his father's life (allegedly) attempted to burn his ear off with scalding water because she found him "ugly." As both cases have yet to go to trial, all parties are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Rensselaer, New York, to discuss the horrific case of Josefina "Josie" Cunningham, an adorable toddler who was raped and murdered by her mother's boyfriend, 34-year-old Robert Fisher. Between July 6th and 7th of 2023, Robert was babysitting 3-year-old Josie at her home on Broadway in Rensselaer. During this time, he crushed prescription medication and forced the child to drink it. While she was conscious, he brutally assaulted her. When the child's mother returned, she found Josie unresponsive and foaming at the mouth. Robert had heavily staged the crime scene, positioning the toddler on her back with her hands folded, and had aggressively used Clorox bleach wipes to scrub her face and body in an attempt to destroy DNA evidence. She scrubbed so hard, that the pigment was removed from her skin. Josie was rushed to Albany Medical Center Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Her official cause of death was ruled as homicidal violence driven by acute internal trauma, lacerations, and acute drug intoxication.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to the waters of the mighty Atlantic Ocean to discuss the bizarre case of Ronald L. Fischer, a former anesthesiologist and convicted sex offender who was captured by federal authorities on July 16, 2026, after evading law enforcement for 21 years as one of Rhode Island's "Most Wanted" fugitives. Wait until you hear who hired him while he was on the run...

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Tucson, Arizona, to discuss the case of Christopher Mathew Payne, who was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death in 2009 for the brutal starvation and abuse of his two children, 4-year-old Tyler, and 3-year-old Ariana. His live-in girlfriend, Reina Gonzales, pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree murder and was sentenced to 22 years in prison in exchange for her testimony against him. The horrific abuse unfolded over several months in 2006... The couple locked Tyler and Ariana inside a small bedroom closet. While the couple heavily abused heroin, they initially fed the children only one sandwich a day before cutting off food entirely. The children were kept permanently in the dark closet without bathroom access. Autopsy reports later revealed that Ariana suffered a broken spine near the time of her death, alongside numerous healed broken ribs and a broken shoulder. Ariana died first from severe starvation and physical trauma. Christopher left her body in the closet with her brother Tyler, who was still alive. Tyler died approximately one week later. He then stuffed both children's bodies into plastic bags and stored them inside a large plastic container. He then rented a midtown Tucson storage unit and locked the container away. The crimes went unnoticed until February 2007, when the storage facility facility manager cleared out the locker due to non-payment. Ariana's decomposed remains were found inside. Tyler’s body was never recovered, and investigators believe he was discarded in a dumpster that was emptied into the Los Reales Landfill. The murders sparked severe public outcry when Arizona Child Protective Services records revealed that caseworkers had visited the home multiple times prior to the deaths but failed to uncover the extreme ongoing abuse.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Ohio to discuss the case of Matthew James Dunmire, a a 31-year-old aspiring musician and father who was murdered in March 2021. His death became the subject of a high-profile federal investigation after his body was discovered in a secluded wooded area of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. On March 5, 2021, Matthew left a local bar to meet a woman he had been communicating with online. Surveillance footage and phone records tracked him to an Airbnb and eventually to the park's Terra Vista Natural Study Area. He was shot once in the back of the head. Hikers discovered his body three days later. Chelsea Perkins (aka Chelsea Savage), a 35-year-old U.S. Coast Guard veteran and adult film performer from Virginia, was identified as the killer. Chelsea lured Matthew to the national park under the false pretense of filming a video. Prosecutors characterized the crime as a calculated "revenge killing". Chelsea had accused Matthew of sexual assault in Virginia Beach back in 2017. Local police investigated at the time, but no charges were filed due to a lack of evidence. In May of 2025, Chelsea Perkins pleaded guilty in federal court to second-degree murder and using a firearm in a violent crime. On September 9, 2025, a federal judge sentenced her to 22.5 years in prison. She is serving her sentence at a federal facility in West Virginia. In December of 2025, a federal judge ordered Chelsea to pay restitution to Matthew's estate and family to cover funeral expenses.
