  • The Case of Christian Choate

    This week, Drewby and Yergy head out to Gary, Indiana, to discuss the case of Christian Choate, a beautiful little boy who was locked inside a dog crate by his father and stepfather, who also ordered his older sister to act as his jailer. Christian was kept in that dog crate for about a year until he was ultimately beaten to death.

  • The Case of Jazmine Rose Robin

    This week, Drewby and Yergy head back to Houston, Texas, once again, to discuss the case of Jazmine Rose Robin, who was killed just 11 days after coming home from the NICU. Medical Examiner Dr. Pramod Gumpeni found a total of 96 fractures on the infant. Her skull was fractured in two places. One of these head wounds was a fracture of the right parietal bone, which measured 8.5 centimeters – that’s a crack almost 3 and ½ inches long on a tiny newborn skull. Her ribs were broken in 71 places and the long bones in her arms and legs were broken in 23 places. Some of the rib fractures showed signs of healing. She was also bruised and battered. The doctor noted five distinct trauma areas on her right arm, six trauma areas to her left leg, and three trauma areas to her right leg. She had five bruises on her face, ten on her scalp and nine on her chest and belly. There were retinal hemorrhages in both eyes, and Dr. Gumpeni said her brain was markedly liquefied. She had old and fresh brain bleeds, as well as old and fresh areas of bleeding on her spinal cord, indicating multiple episodes of injury. The most severe bleed covered the surface of the right half of her brain and extended along the base of her brain on both sides. She had bled so much from her brain that the blood pooled there. Her cause of death was blunt force trauma of the head with subdural hemorrhage and skull fracture. A contributing factor was blunt force trauma to the torso and extremities. Her manner of death was homicide.

  • The Case of Samuel Olson

    This week, Yergy and Drewby head to Texas to discuss the tragic case of Samuel Olson, a little boy whose story has become all too common on this channel... A child is born, the parents separate, and then one (or both) of the parents get involved with a significant other who means nothing but harm to their child. In this case, Samuel's father, Dalton, became involved with a woman named Theresa Balboa. Theresa was no stranger to the court system, having already lost custody of her own children previously. However, in late May of 2021, Samuel went missing, and the last person to see him alive was Theresa. On June 2nd, police confirmed that Samuel's remains had been located inside of a plastic tote in Jasper, Texas. He'd been killed 17 days prior to his 6th birthday.

  • The Case of Lola James

    This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Wale to discuss the tragic case of Lola James, a toddler from Haverfordwest who at the time of our story, was living with her mother, Sinead James, and her mother's boyfriend, Kyle Bevan. On July 17th, 2020 (into the early morning hours of the 18th), Kyle beat little Lola near death, documenting the abuse of his cell phone. Lola passed away at the hospital just days later. Meanwhile, Kyle claimed that the family dog, Jessie, tripped Lola, causing her to tumble down the stairs. This false accusation caused Jessie to be put to sleep, and it would be almost three years before justice would be served.

  • The Case of Victoria Stafford

    This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Canada to discuss one of the country's most tragic stories... the senseless and brutal murder of Victoria "Tori" Stafford. Tori was a spunky little girl who loved Hannah Montana and dressing up for Halloween. Her favorite color was purple, and she had an older brother named Daryn who loved her very much. On April 8th, 2009, Tori was walking home from school when she was approached by 18-year-old Terri-Lynne McClintic, who offered to show her a Shih Tzu puppy. Instead, she and her boyfriend, 28-year-old Michael  Rafferty abducted the little girl, after which she was raped, murdered, and dumped beneath a rock pile in a remote location.

  • The Case of Timothy Ferguson

    This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss the case of Timothy Ferguson of Michigan, a 13-year-old autistic boy who lived with his mother and stepfather, Shanda and Adam Vander Ark, as well as his older brother, Paul Ferguson. But when Adam suffered a serious of medical events that caused him to be placed into the care of his parents, Shanda and Paul turned Timothy into a literal prisoner in his own home... locking him in a closet, monitoring him with cameras and motion sensors, depriving him of both sleep and food (aside from hot sauce bread), and making him take ice baths until his 69 pound body could suffer no more.

With the help of forensic sketch artist, Lois Gibson, as well as a shocking photograph of the dead child's face that was released to the public, detectives were able to track down "Little Jacob's" caretakers - his mother, Rebecca Suzanne Rivera, and her girlfriend, Dania Amezquita Gomez.
