The Misery Machine

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Amherst County, Virginia, to discuss the case of Elsie Wiggington, a 45-year-old nurse and mother of two who went missing in June of 2023, after confession to her former foster sister that she feared for her life. Elsie's case went cold until a new sheriff took office, and what was found beneath a six inch concrete slab on her estranged husband's property shocked Amherst to it's core.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head over to Inkster, Michigan, to discuss a case that they have wanted to discuss for a very long time now, and that is the case of London Thomas. London was a beautiful 17-year-old girl with a promising future that went missing in April of 2025. Not long after, her remains were discovered sealed in a tote inside of an SUV. Her ex-boyfriend Jalen Pendergrass and his mother, Charla, have been arrested in connection to her death.

This week, Drewby and Yergy bring you to Utah to discuss the case of Mackenzie Lueck, a 23-year-old college student who was studying to be a nurse. While in school, Mackenzie discovered the world of sugar dating, which led to her meeting a man named Ayoola Ajayi, who worked in IT. However, what was supposed to be a first date turned into a nightmare.

In Capitol Heights, Maryland, a mother of three vanished, and the truth behind her disappearance would shock everyone who loved her. Alexis Schuler was brutally shot in the head by Devonte Gray, the father of one of her children, in an act of unimaginable violence and betrayal. To add insult to injury, her body was encased in concrete and hidden behind a freshly constructed wall inside of his home.

After a long career in nursing, John Torneo did what many retirees do... they pack up and head on down to the Sunshine State to live out their golden years in the warm weather. While in Florida, John met a young man that was down on his luck and needed a place to stay. Unfortunately, John's kind nature would put him in grave danger when the arrangement didn't pan out. This week, Drewby and Yergy head back down to Polk County to discuss the case of John Torneo, a New England native with a big heart that should have been left in peace... but he sadly wasn't.

On Christmas Eve, a young man went missing after a date arranged through Grindr, and what followed would shock an entire community. Kevin Bacon, a 26-year-old hair stylist from Michigan, never made it home that night. His disappearance would soon be linked to Mark Latunski, a man hiding a dark and disturbing secret behind the walls of his rural farmhouse. This is the story of Kevin Bacon, and the crime that unfolded during a holiday meant for family, warmth, and peace.

On a quiet afternoon in Polk City, Florida, a teenage breakup spiraled into unimaginable violence. What began as a dispute between 17-year-old Hunter Penton and his ex-girlfriend quickly escalated into a brutal attack inside his own home... an assault carried out by multiple teenagers and captured on video. But the violence didn’t end there. As Hunter’s mother, Suzette Marie Penton, rushed to protect her son, she was struck and killed by a church van driven by 18-year-old Elijah Paul Stansell. This week, Drewby and Yergy examine the tragic chain of events that led to Suzette’s death, and how youthful anger, peer involvement, and reckless decisions destroyed a family forever.

Some of the most devastating crimes are not committed by strangers in dark alleys, but by the very people meant to protect and love us. In this compilation, we examine four separate cases that shook communities to their core, each involving a biological father who betrayed the most fundamental bond of parenthood. Phoebe Jonchuck, Maddox Lawrence, Dylan Redwine, and Takoda Collins were children whose lives ended far too soon at the hands of their own fathers. Though these cases occurred in different places and under different circumstances, they share a haunting common thread: warning signs missed, systems that failed, and innocent lives lost. This week, we will tell their stories, not for shock value, but to remember who they were, to confront the uncomfortable realities of family violence, and to ask how tragedies like these can ever be prevented.

It was a story that gripped Southern California and eventually broke hearts across the nation. In August of 2025, 7-month-old Emmanuel Haro was reported kidnapped from a Yucaipa parking lot during a broad-daylight attack on his mother.

The parents, Rebecca and Jake Haro, went on television pleading for their son’s safe return. But behind the scenes, investigators were finding holes in their story. Surveillance footage showed no kidnapping, and soon, the mother’s account began to crumble...

On a quiet train ride through North Carolina, surrounded by strangers and moving steadily toward its destination, no one could have imagined that violence was about to unfold in one of the most confined public spaces imaginable. Iryna Zarutska was just another passenger that day... until her life was taken in a brutal and senseless act that would shock travelers, law enforcement, and an entire nation.

What makes this case especially disturbing isn’t just the crime itself, but where it happened: aboard a moving train, a place many people associate with safety, routine, and anonymity. In today’s video, we’ll examine who Iryna was, what is known about the moments leading up to her death, how the attack unfolded, and the questions this case raised about security, vulnerability, and violence in public spaces.
