About this listen

We tell stories of true crime as well as weird, disturbing, scary, and strange tales. Many of the things you will be told about will focus on or be based in the Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S., as that is from where we hail. My hope is that you learn something that will enlighten, make you more cautious, and entertain you. We are also here out of respect for and to do our small part to ensure that those discussed here are remembered. Come along and enjoy the ride! Thanks for listening!Just A Girl True Crime

  • “THIS IS A TRUE STORY…”, but “ the rest has been told exactly as it occurred.”
    Feb 2 2025

    Unlike the movie that drew me to this case so many years ago, THIS is a true story. No names have been changed, and for education/enlightenment purposes, as well as respect for the dead, everything has been told exactly as it occurred. Please come with me today for the tragic story of the murder of Helle Crafts. This is a story of a woman in a disappointing marriage to a disappointing man who treated her like garbage. She tried to escape her situation, but there would be no escaping his monstrous nature.

    Solving this case would not at all have been possible without forensic science, and it’s a total reminder that you cannot commit a crime and get way with it, especially a murder. This case made history, set benchmarks, contributed to our present fascination with true crime, and had a hand in inspiring some of the best film-making of all-time………. Enjoy.

  • Senseless Unprecedented Carnage
    Jan 11 2025

    This is a true tale of brutality, utter senselessness, the power within enabling us to go on living, as well as the importance of a legacy. Just one day in the summer of 1990 would change many lives forever…and give us a story to discuss today that I just will never understand. Join me for the tale of The Potomac Murders.
