On this week's episode I'm telling Russ the insane case of Michelle O'Connell. Michelle was a young, beautiful mother who was making a lot of positive changes in her life. Shockingly however, Michelle suddenly dies. Was this a suicide? Or was this a homicide at the hands of her newly ex boyfriend, who just so happens to be a cop? Moral of this story...

Originally I was going to tell Russ about the mysterious death of Jimmy Hoffa but as I researched that case I learned about the relationship between Jimmy Hoffa and Frank Sheeran. Learning about Frank and is journey to becoming a mafia hitman was so interesting and I knew I had to tell Russ about it! Moral of this story...

On this week's episode I'm telling Russ about one of the most well known serial killers in American history, Aileen Wuornos. Aileen had an absolutely horrific childhood and it led to her being a cold hearted killer. But like we've discussed before it's usually a combo of nature and nurture for these serial killer folks. In her case bad genetics mixed with a childhood of nobody giving a shit was a deadly recipe for disaster. Moral of the story.... Shit always floats to the top.

We sat down with our good friend and crime family member Deniz Kofteci to discuss why women love true crime! Deniz is a documentary producer and researcher for HBO. She produced a news segment a few years back on the topic. Being a true crime fan herself she was faced with the question we all ask ourselves... Why do we love hearing about murder??

We had a lot of fun hanging out with her through Zoom! We've known Deniz for about 8 years now! So in true WOC fashion we drank, laughed, roasted each other and got off topic! Enjoy!
