On this weeks episode I'm telling Russ the story of Jane Toppan. This case simultaneously fascinates and infuriates me. Jane is widely known as the first female serial killer in US history. But, what makes her even more of a scum bag is she was a NURSE! Moral of this story... if you see something, say something because if your instincts tell you something is super sus ... you're probably right!

On this episode I tell Russ about the crazy and mysterious death of Kanika Powell. Kanika was a young ambitious woman who held a top secret security clearance and worked for the Applied Physics Laboratory at Johns Hopkins University. With the type of job Kanika had her friends and family thought she would be protected from danger but her job may have been the very thing that led to her death.Moral of this story... there is no lesson to be learned here because Kanika did everything right and still couldn't escape her killer.

On this week's episode I tell Russ about the murder of Reeva Steenkamp. Reeva was murdered by world famous Olympian Oscar Pistorius. This was a sensational case out of South Africa and was reported on all over the world. Was this a case of cold blood murder or a terrible mistake?? Oscar was a disabled olympic gold medalist who was truly inspirational until this happened. Moral of the story... If you're claiming self defense, you gotta make sure your story ads up. In my opinion something just ain't right about this one.

On this week's episode I tell Russ about the case of Arne Johnson. This case is also well known as "The devil made me do it" case. Arne was an all around nice guy who committed a horrible crime. To police the case was open and shut, but according to Arne, his girlfriend Debbie and Ed and Lorraine Warren, Arne was innocent because the devil made him do it. As most of you know, Russ doesn't believe in anything supernatural especially angels and demons, so I already knew what I was getting myself into with this one! Moral of the story.... A couple that fights the devil together stays together! Happy Halloween!!

On this week's episode I tell Russ about the infamous case of Lizzie Borden. This case is super popular around this time of year. It's a classic " who done it" type of case...a little bit of American folklore. But did Lizzie Borden actually kill her parents? Or could it have been someone else? I tell Russ everything I know about the Borden case (because of course he has no idea who she is) and I wanted to see what he thinks. Moral of this story... "As long as greed is stronger than compassion, there will always be suffering"

On this week's episode I tell Russ about the brutal murder of Faith Hedgepeth. Faith was a 19 year old UNC Chapel Hill student who was brutally murdered in her apartment in 2012. There are a ton of details and twists and turns that just don't make a lot of sense. This case has been unsolved for the last 9 years but just last week there was an arrest made so I really wanted to tell Russ about this one! Moral of this story... "Don't trust everything you see, because even salt looks like sugar."
