True Crime BnB

Hey, all you Crime Family members, welcome back to the BnB this week! As promised, we are bringing you a regular episode today and Bailey is in her usual spot out front under the big oak tree.

The first story, from Bailey, is the maddeningly stupid murderer who lured Kim Wall to her death when she was trying to interview him for an article she wanted to write. From the minute the two of them were alone together, it was 100% certain that his deranged plan would not go undetected, so why did he kill her? See? Maddening.

Beth follows up with a story that isn't a happy ending, but it's a positive for forensic science. This is the case of the sexual assault and murder of Stacey Lyn Chahorski from Michigan, who was found in Georgia in 1988. And if you believe in karma, then this does have a fitting ending.

And an update on the California Statutes of Limitations that we discussed in Episode 37, thanks to my friend from college, Don XXXXX.

Go on now, head out to the story circle in the shade, and we'll be right out with spiked lemonade. Careful not to get cat hair on your pants.

Thank you for stopping by, we are always glad you're here!

Hello mid-week, our dear Crime Family. We have arrived on a Tuesday to bring you a bonus episode that will leave a chill in your bones.

Daisy Paulsen, known to everyone as Jupiter, was 14 years old, and doing everything she was supposed to do. But on a summer Friday morning, she happened across the wrong man who brutally attacked her and took her away from her family forever.

There are many variables in this story that will leave you wondering about the mental state of her killer, but what it comes down to is that a beautiful, amazing teenager lost everything just because she crossed paths with the wrong person.

This one is tough, and left us heartbroken. But Jupiter saved a lot of people after her passing, and she deserves to be remembered for the goodness of her heart.

Buckle in, our sweet friends, and take a moment to remember Jupiter Paulsen.

Week 38, and here we are back at the BnB with stories to tell!

Bailey is in front with the case of Lee Rotatori, who was a dietitian about to embark on a new and exciting new chapter in her life. But, as in most of our stories, she never got the chance to enjoy it, because she was cut down in the prime of her life. And even though her killer was finally identified through familial DNA, that answered one question and raised a couple of new ones. This one is mysterious.

Beth brings the positive ending, but first you'd better be ready to get dragged through some thorns, because this story is a rough one. Laura Jastre and her friends were living dangerously deep in drug culture, but an unprovoked attack that killed two of her friends ended up being the jolt that Laura needed to take her own life back and try to help others do the same.

We had all kinds of tech excitement with this episode, but none of it was more distressing than Beth's alternating verb tenses in her story! Apologies to her former English teachers--she DOES know better than that!

Everyone, we appreciate your being here again this week, and as always we thank you for taking the time to listen. If you don't mind, please lock the front door before you sit down, and we'll tell you what we learned about these two cases and the people involved.

Welcome, Crime Family! Welcome. But really--please don't email Puss. (She can't read.)

Well, hello and welcome back to the True Crime BnB, where we are always 100% pet friendly....even when half of our bloopers consist of Bailey devising ways to murder the screaming demon. This episode had some operator error issues, and Beth had to record half of her story twice--so when we refer to 'the FIRST time we recorded this,' that's what we're talking about.

In fact, Beth is the bad guy this week and brings the enraging story of two vibrant, amazing young women who went out for a party in Los Angeles last year and never made it home. But it's not the usual story of being snatched off the street. These women, Christy Giles and Hilda Marcela Cabroles-Arzola, went to an after-party where the host had disgraceful and heinous plans, along with a history of doing the same to other women over the years.

Bailey tells us about Lauren Huxley, an Australian woman who was caught up in absolute horror and barely survived it. But her strength, spirit, and determination to get her life back will lift your spirits!

So this one wore us out, and we imagine it will you, too. Grab a fluffy pillow to hug, pick your favorite bean-bag chair, and we'll tell you about three women who had big plans for their lives, and the monsters who interrupted them.

Thank you for stopping by!

Welcome back to week 36 at the True Crime BnB, Crime Family!

This week Bailey walks us through the perplexing disappearance of Sandra Johnsen-Hughes in California. Having spent her life as an avid solo-explorer, the circumstances of her last known whereabouts and mysterious disappearance in a National Park leave countless questions unanswered.

Beth brings an amazing story of survival against all the odds. Verna Sue White had no chance against the masked man who viciously attacked her in her home, but once he had threatened her daughter, Verna Sue was never going to let him prevail. And that was the turning point, sealing his fate.

And on top of all that, we have an amusing anecdote about old-timey pirates!

So as always, we love you and thank you for stopping back at the ol' True Crime BnB, and we are ready to share this week's stories with you. The snacks are out, the beverages are ready, and it's time to kick off your shoes and take in a few minutes of true crime, on us.

Meow.

So, we're back for another bonus episode, and we're thrilled that you've chosen to join us again today! Welcome!

This Just One B has Bailey running the show, with the unsolved murder of Kimberly Sue Morse. This vibrant, sunny young woman had the world as her oyster, and she was living her best life and setting up her plans for the future, until someone brutally took her life, with no answers, and no suspects.

Just have a seat, take in the story, and if you have relatives in the New England area, maybe add your DNA into the database to help find an answer using genetic genealogy. It's time to clear up all these unsolved cases that have DNA evidence with no matches!

Thank you for stopping in, we're glad you're here, and we will be back again on Friday on the regular schedule with Episode 36!

Welcome to all of our new subscribers and listeners, and we thank our whole Crime Family for being here again! Week 35's stories have made our blood boil, and then made us hopeful in remembering there are some really amazing people in the world.

We'll just warn you: Bailey's story had us so angry that there is more than our normal swearing in this episode. But if you hear the story of the disgraceful and barbaric murder of Carol Jenkins-Davis, along with the aftermath and shameful treatment by the 'Sundown Town' of Martinsville, Indiana, and you're not angry...something's wrong.

Beth has the second story this week, with cellist Friedericke Fechner, who bought a dilapidated old house to renovate and preserve, and through its history, helped reunite a family whose scattered members didn't think they had any other living relatives.

So, it's a bit of rough one, but we know you're tough enough to get through it with us. We're sorry there are no Puss interruptions in the bloopers this week, I think she knew our nerves were shot after that first story.

And now, we need a glass of wine. Care to join us? No worries, I mean, it's a BnB. You can crash here until you're good to drive.

Episode 34, and we are both on a roll in this one.

Bailey brings us the third installment of her 'Campus Murders' series with a mysterious death that took place on the campus of Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Jack Davis, Jr.'s death was shoddily investigated, and none of the original findings (mostly assumptions) stood up under the eye of a rockstar pathologist.

Beth has a survivor story, with the positive outlook and good heart of Bobby Gayle, who survived a horrific hate crime in Stockton, California. But the subject of hate crimes had her on fire, and so of course there's more to the story than a happy ending for our lovable superhero.

This week we are pleased to share the trailer for World's Dumbest Criminals, and we hope you will go check out this well-done, lightheartedly offbeat podcast by Tara Sariban!

We also want to share the web address of the Southern Poverty Law Center, which has been doing critical human rights, civil rights, and anti-hate crime work for over fifty years. Please donate if you can spare it. https://www.splcenter.org/

It's a true pleasure to have you back with us this week, as always. So now that you're here, get comfortable, put your feet up, and let's really think about how we as a crime family can make our lives, other people's lives, and the world a better place.

But first--somebody, please get the cat off the table again!

This week at the BnB, we're asking ourselves: Is it just us, or is the world cruelly ridiculous?

Beth is starting things off this week in Episode 33 with two senseless murders that, in the end, were all for nothing. It's also a reminder that even these bizarre stories are about real people who suffered, and those victims deserve to be treated with respect, despite the circumstances of their demise.

Bailey saves the day (kind of) with survivor Joi Partain, who needed a little help and nearly died for it when her ex couldn't follow through responsibly. Joi received her second chance at life, and made something admirable of it.

Thanks for being here again, our dear Crime Family. Hey, pick something nice in the wine cellar on your way to out the porch, will ya? I'll get the glasses and meet you out there in just a few. Welcome.

Well, Crime Family, it's a mixed bag this week--on the good side, we have a bonus episode for you! On the less-good side, it's a really horrible story out of California. Beth is bringing you the events leading up to and theories surrounding the murders of nine members of the Ortega family by ex-son-in-law Bruce Pardo.

So, here's your mid-week excuse to have a glass of wine and put your feet up. You might need it for this one.

Thanks for popping in for the Bonus Episode, we're glad you're here!
