That's Disturbing - True Crime Podcast

Marion Parker was a 12 year old girl who was enjoying a celebratory Christmas party at school when she was abruptly taken from class under very false pretenses. **TRIGGER WARNING**!! This one is so sad and hard to listen to. Thanks for the case request, Lynsey!  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/8978/marion-parker https://www.newspapers.com/article/richmond-times-dispatch/51244851/ https://www.n...

Daphne did a great job telling this story. So sad, when someone you trust is the one in the very end who can't be trusted at all. Amie was smart, accomplished, respected and loved by many. She helped a ton of people and unfortunately her life was snatched from her in a very tragic and scary way. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1943215/bio/ https://www.the-sun.com/news/7224841/who-amie-harwick-dated-dr...

This is a listener request from @lynds321. Ericka and Ben Sifrit, the killer couple who's relationship was like throwing gas on a fire. These two found thrills in devious ways and the outcome had terrible consequences for an innocent couple who got sucked into a party that ended with a deadly game. The Sifrits had no remorse for the awful crime they committed. Yet more people to feel distain for....

Daphne did such a great job talking about the life of John Gotti. He was a poverty stricken kid who went on to become the highest ranking member of the Gambino Crime Family. Living his life in the spotlight like a celebrity of sorts and then the inevitable fall from grace. These stories about mobsters seem so unreal like a screenplay or book you can't put down, in fact this is real life for some....

Phillip Markoff dubbed the Craigslist Killer by the press, was a good looking guy, with ambition and moving his life in the "right" direction. Never in trouble, always following the rules and striving for the next level. Big dreams and set goals that were well on there way to being met. Then enter the dark side of maybe unexplored or hidden sexual desires and huge debt that pivot life in the direc...

Kitty Genovese's murder was shocking and senseless as all murders are. The interesting thing about this case is what has come to be known as "The Bystander Effect". Newspapers exaggerated the details as they do, and subsequent reporting led to a full study in the human response. The bystander effect was a term coined after this tragic murder. The sad reality of people not wanting to get involved a...

Daphne explains the origin of Papa Legba in relation to Haitian Vodou, Dominican Vodou, Winti and Louisiana Voodoo. Papa Legba is believed to be the gatekeeper who serves as the intermediary between God and humanity. These roots are derived from religious beliefs that span different cultures. He speaks all languages and has no evil intentions. We hope you enjoy this one which is a little off the b...

LSD 25, yuuhhh! We're not as tripped out as we'd hoped to be when learning about Project Artichoke and its subproject, MK Ultra. This episode is all about the unintended discovery of a mind melting drug, acid, and how the CIA tried to use it to spread "American values" to other nations and even its own citizens. Buckle up, we're about to go for a far out journey! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hist...

We're finally there, thank goodness. The crime was horrible, unthinkable and tragic. Unfortunately not anything new. This at least has a made a positive impact on the future for Australia and it's citizens. We hope you enjoy the outcome. https://www.smh.com.au/national/a-dangerous-mind-what-turned-martin-bryant-into-a-mass-murderer-20090427-ajk4.html https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/por...

This is the second part of a 3 parter, this one is rough and that's an understatement. Get your tissue and be aware that this is going to be brutal. This was the largest mass murder in Australia's history. It is a level above anything we've covered thus far. I actually teared up at some points during Daphne's description of these events, which is not that normal for me. I'm a Capricorn and not tha...

This one is a weird one! That's all we've got, very weird. Doesn't everyone drive with a pony in their car? But anyway, some weird events happen in Martin Bryants life that we explore in this episode. By the end of the story, you might just feel kind of sad or bad for him, and part 2 coming soon!! https://www.smh.com.au/national/a-dangerous-mind-what-turned-martin-bryant-into-a-mass-murderer-20090...

Daphne had the pleasure of finding this case about Ernest Ingenito, an unhinged Grade A douche bag. Like most spree killers, he basically just had a temper tantrum that resulted in the death of 5 people, all members of the same family. Four other family members were also injured but thankfully survived. Thank you New Jersey, the state who outdid themselves with a law they would regret.  https://ww...

We hope you enjoy. https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/articl...

This spot is known to be one of the most haunted places in America, and we can...

In this episode Gayle takes us to the Bermuda Triangle aka The Devils Triangle. This was a fun one we were able to bounce ideas off each other and go back in history and with the twist of a mystery. Aliens, Atlanteans, weather, mechanical malfunctions due to true north and magnetic north converging or poor navigation, it's all up for debate. Please let us know what you think. Chime in on our Insta...

In this episode Daphne tells us this ridiculous story of a narcissistic murderer. Ira Einhorn manipulated his way through life and conned people to buy into his cause. This was like following a game of legal twister, that went on for years.  https://the-line-up.com/the-unicorn-killer-an-environmental-activist-with-a-deadly-secret https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ira_Einhorn https://allthatsinterestin...
