When you are in school you develop a few things; you most likely have a top 3 for your future career and friends- but for Juliet and Pauline their friendship would exceed your typical high school BFFs, no these two wanted to be inseparable and they didn't care who they had to take down in order to maintain that.

May 31, 2022 Behind Closed Doors: The Turpin Family Ep 4
Louise's face on the footage from the body cam of the officers who made entrance into the Turpin home told the world all we needed to know... they were caught.
17-year-old Jordan Turpin would make a decision, one that she had been planning for more than 2 years... Despite being able to verbally tell officers what was going on behind the closed doors of her family's home, she was able to show photos for proof, photos to say the words she didn't even know existed. Her story went from a tale-tell to one of the worse child abuse cases to be uncovered in America. This time all the children would escape their prison, unlike other children who are abused or neglected.
Join me tonight to close out this house of horrors series and the closeout of yet another season of TTCL...
If you know of a child being abused or neglected or suspect that a child is being abused or neglected please contact your local law enforcement or call the National Hotline for Child Abuse 1-800-422-4453, give a voice to the children fading into the background...

May 16, 2022 Behind Closed Doors: The Turpin Family Ep 2
Louise dreamed of having a large family and with the birth of 8 children she is well on her way but what she didn't account for is taking care of them and being an actual mother. Instead with each child David and Louise would design rule after rule to keep their life secret and their children out of the sight of everyone because what was happening behind the closed doors of the Turpin family home was pure torture that had no rhyme or reason...

May 09, 2022 Behind Closed Doors: The Turpin Family Ep 1
Those who lived on Muir Woods Road in Perris California could have never guessed what was going on behind the closed door of the house sitting at 160 Muir Woods. 13 children were rescued from that home; 7 of which were legally adults. The 1-year-old was the only one to not appear malnourished or abused. To understand how something like this could happen we have to go back and start at the beginning...

April 18, 2022 Miss American Serial Killer: Aileen Wuornos Ep 3
Aileen was now a killer, her first victim Richard Mallory dead from multiple gunshot wounds, and now she has found a better way at robbing these men... kill them first- she claims self-defense in each and every victim's case but not all were out to rape and beat her.

PTSD can make the mind see and hear completely different things than what is actually going on- for Lee the repeated rapes she suffered came to a head and burst into an uncontrolled burning rage within Lee. Triggered possibly by finding herself alone with a man in the woods and her fight or flight response kicked in causing her to take the lives of David Spears, Charles "Chuck" Carskaddon, and Peter Siems but she wouldn't stop at just these men... she was going to keep killing and keep robbing them until one beat her to death or until the cops figured her out...

April 11, 2022 Miss American Serial Killer: Aileen Wuornos Ep 2
Aileen and Ty meeting created tsunamis in their life together, they both loved each other (Lee would later say like sisters, however, Ty had been introduced as Lee's Wife on more than one occasion) but never the less these two were virtually inseparable from June of 1986 into 1991 when Lee would be arrested for the murder of 7 men and faced the electric chair for her crimes.
Lee desperate for love and acceptance turned her to the only person she could trust, Tyria. Lee did anything and everything to make sure Ty stayed in her life, even killing in order to support their dream bubble for as long as possible, and a wrong-place, wrong-time scenario landed Richard Mallory in a chance encounter with an angry Lee who claims to have acted in self-defense when the sex-crazed Richard went rouge and decided to rape her... per her side of the story...
