  • Bible Belt Strangler: The 40-Year Hunt for a Killer Who Targeted Redheads

    Bible Belt Strangler: The 40-Year Hunt for a Killer Who Targeted Redheads
    Nov 27 2025
    Bible Belt Strangler: The 40-Year Hunt for a Killer Who Targeted RedheadsSo there's this case that's been sitting in the shadows for over 40 years. Between 1978 and 1992, women with red hair started turning up dead along interstates across the South. Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Mississippi. All strangled or beaten. All dumped like they were nothing. The FBI task force called them the Redhead Murders. The media went with "Bible Belt Strangler." Most of these women stayed nameless for decades. Jane Does. Because they were hitchhikers, sex workers, women nobody was looking for. Then in 2018, forensic genealogy finally gave them their names back. Tina Farmer. Espy Pilgrim. Tracy Sue Walker. Michelle Inman. DNA pointed to a truck driver named Jerry Leon Johns for at least one of the murders. Investigators still don't know if he killed them all, or if there were multiple killers working the same routes, hunting the same type of woman. Before the cops even announced Johns' name, a group of Tennessee high school students profiled the killer in a sociology project and got it right. This is about women the system failed twice. Once when they were alive, and again when they died. And it's about how science finally forced us to remember them.#RedheadMurders #BibleBeltStrangler #TinaFarmer #JerryLeonJohns #TrueCrime #ColdCase #ForensicGenealogy🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  • Thanksgiving Day 2012: How Byron Smith Executed Two Teen Burglars

    Thanksgiving Day 2012: How Byron Smith Executed Two Teen Burglars
    Nov 26 2025
    Thanksgiving Day 2012: How Byron Smith Executed Two Teen BurglarsByron David Smith, a 64-year-old retired security engineer, shot and killed teenagers Nicholas Brady and Haile Kifer during a home invasion in Little Falls, Minnesota on Thanksgiving Day 2012. The double homicide investigation revealed audio recordings Smith made of the entire incident, leading to his arrest, trial, and conviction for first-degree premeditated murder. Forensic evidence and witness testimony showed Smith had prepared an ambush in his basement after multiple prior burglaries of his property.Smith had been burglarized before. His father's POW watch was gone. Four thousand dollars in cash, stolen. By Thanksgiving 2012, he was exhausted, paranoid, wearing a gun around his own house. When two teenagers broke into his basement that day, Smith was ready. He'd moved his truck to make the house look empty. He had two guns. And he turned on his audio recorder. What that recording captured over the next twenty minutes would become the most damning evidence in Minnesota legal history. This case redrew the line between the Castle Doctrine and cold-blooded execution, and Smith documented every second of his own downfall.#ByronSmith #LittleFallsMurders #TrueCrimePodcast #CastleDoctrine #SelfDefenseGoneWrong #MinnesotaMurder #ThanksgivingMurders🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  • The Barron Wisconsin Murders and Jayme Closs’s Escape

    The Barron Wisconsin Murders and Jayme Closs’s Escape
    Nov 25 2025
    The Barron Wisconsin Murders and Jayme Closs’s Escape

    You know what terrifies me most about this case? Jake Patterson had never met Jayme Closs. Never spoken to her. He saw her getting on a school bus one morning and decided right then that he was going to take her. He killed both her parents, dragged her from her home, and kept her hidden under his bed for 88 days while police chased thousands of dead-end leads. But Jayme Closs refused to stay a victim. This is the story of how a 13-year-old girl saved herself when nobody else could find her.
