Doomed to Fail

This week Farz covers the murder of Dee Dee Blanchard by her daughter’s boyfriend. The twist is that Dee Dee had been keeping her daughter, Gypsy Rose, in a state of medical distress for no reason. She pretended Gypsy had Muscular Dystrophy, Cancer, and more. Plus, she told her that she was  younger than she was?? All for attention & free trips to Disney. It’s Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy to the e...

Join us this week for the haunting story of the 1922 murders at the Hinterkaifeck Farm. The family heard noises & saw mysterious footprints leading up to their murders.
