    Beheaded and Burned Down Under, The Beauty and the Geek | Profiling Evil
    Aug 18 2025

    A shocking murder in Australia has rocked the small fishing town of Port Lincoln and captivated true crime followers around the globe. Former Beauty and the Geek contestant Tamika Chesser is accused of killing and dismembering her boyfriend, 39-year-old Julian Story, before setting a fire to hide the evidence. She walked away as if nothing happened. But this isn’t just a gruesome crime—it’s a case that raises profound questions about mental health, delusion, attention-seeking behavior, and the devastating consequences of untreated psychosis. What motivated such extreme violence? What warning signs were missed? And most importantly—how do we learn from this horror to protect ourselves and those we love?

From a secret affair to a supposed late-night confession, digital breadcrumbs to bleach-soaked crime scenes—this story has it all. We’ll also include exclusive analysis shared on Court TV and how investigators connected the dots through GPS data, forensic evidence, surveillance footage, and witness testimony.
