About this listen

Whether it's a true crime case or a morbid historical tale, we understand that the devil is in the details. In each episode, we comb through the facts, scrutinize the suspects, and deliver the disturbing stories that keep you on the edge of your seat. If you enjoy evidence-driven storytelling with a dash of gallows humor to make the disturbing (somewhat) tolerable, we suspect this is the pod for you. But this is A Trial by Podcast, so we'll let you be the judge.Askolta Media True Crime

  • Ep. 067 | Live or Die Time: Mary Vincent McGriff
    Aug 12 2025

    In 1978, 15-year-old Mary Vincent was brutally attacked by Lawrence Singleton, who picked her up while she was hitchhiking in California, assaulted her, and cut off both of her forearms before leaving her for dead. Remarkably, Mary managed to crawl to safety and survived, later helping to convict Singleton despite his receiving a shockingly light sentence. She went on to become an artist using prosthetic arms and an advocate for victims’ rights, sharing her story to inspire resilience and push for stronger sentencing laws.

  • Ep. 066 | Kim Jong-nam [Part 2] & the Death of Otto Warmbier
    Aug 5 2025

    Kim Jong-nam, the estranged half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, was assassinated on February 13, 2017, at Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia. Two women, Siti Aisyah from Indonesia and Đoàn Thị Hương from Vietnam, smeared a lethal dose of VX nerve agent on his face, allegedly believing they were participating in a prank video. The attack was widely believed to be orchestrated by North Korean agents as part of a state-sanctioned assassination.
