***TRIGGER WARNING***
Death and Injury from Trampling, Fire, and Smoke Inhalation

On the evening of February 20th, 2003, hundreds of people had filled The Station Nightclub in Warwick, Rhode Island.  They were all there for a concert headlined by Great White, a rock band that formed in the late 70s, and has been together ever since, even though some members have changed over the years.  Before the band was even able to finish their first song though, a fire ignited that quickly spread throughout the venue.  100 people lost their lives that night, and 230 more were injured.  132 people escaped without any physical injuries, but the trauma from the night remains with them.

253: The Station Nightclub Fire

We could tell you about our show, but in the words of LeVar Burton, "don't take our word for it!" Here is an actual listener's description of the show: "Think Cher Horowitz meets Dolly Parton... create a love child. Then THAT person meets Bill Kurtis.... and two random girls are the product of that.... that's Tyrella and Tori (sisters and hosts). Smart, weird, pretty, blonde, hilarious, southern, and just really okay with being themselves.... even when it is weird. It made me realize [they] became their role models without even meaning to." Give it a try if you like ANY of those people and/or a lighter take on your True Crime!

True crime

On February 26, 2016, Terry Sanderson was skiing at Deer Valley Resort in Park City Utah. That same day, Gwyneth Paltrow, her significant other, and their children were also skiing there. Just before noon, Terry and Gwyneth collided on the hill. Three years later, Terry Sanderson filed a lawsuit against the actor turned lifestyle influencer for $300,000 in damages. Gwyneth Paltrow countersued for $1. The case went to trial in 2023 to determine who was at fault for their ski hill collision.

Gwyneth Paltrow Ski Trial

Michelle O'Connell's death in 2010 is shrouded in mystery to this day. She was found dead from a gunshot wound, and her death was initially ruled a suicide. Over time though, questions arose due to her troubled relationship with her boyfriend, Jeremy Banks, who was also a sheriff's deputy in St. Augustine, Florida. Despite evidence suggesting foul play, the case was closed, leaving her family frustrated and seeking justice. The case gained national attention as it raised concerns about law enforcement bias and the handling of domestic violence cases. Michelle's family continues to fight for a proper investigation, hoping to uncover the truth.

The Mysterious Death of Michelle O'Connell (Suicide or Murder?)

On July 9th, 1993, at 1:40 a 911 call was placed by Russell Bennett Peterson. He told the operator that he and his girlfriend had a fight and that she had been shot, but he claimed to not know who shot her. Stephanie Wasilishin was the mother of two young children who tragically lost her life that night. It has been 30 years since Stephanie’s death, and justice has still not been served. Her older daughter, Nikki, has taken up the fight for her mother, and she is on a mission to find the answers that no one seems to want to provide.

The Murder of Hailey Dunn

Serving as a sheriff's deputy in Martin County, Florida, Gerard Schaefer led a double life, portraying himself as a dedicated officer while secretly engaging in gruesome acts. Schaefer was convicted of the first degree murders of two young women, Susan Place and Georgia Jessup. Investigators suspect that Schaefer was responsible for as many as thirty murders from the late 60s to the early 70s before his arrest and eventual conviction. During his incarceration, Schaefer penned short stories depicting the abduction and murder of women, some of which contained chilling details correlating with women who had been reported missing or bodies that had been found, adding a disturbing layer to the already gruesome nature of his crimes.
