  • The Deception of Derek Alldred
    Dec 18 2025
    He was charming, successful, attentive... and seemed almost too good to be true. And for a lot of women across the country, that’s exactly what he was. What started as an online romance quickly turned into whirlwind relationships filled with luxury hotels, expensive dinners, big promises, and a man who always seemed to swoop in at just the right moment. But behind the tailored suits, military uniforms, and impressive résumés was something far darker. As cracks began to form, women started asking the same question: Who is this man, really? What they uncovered was a shocking pattern of deception, stolen identities, and financial devastation—often carried out when his victims were at their most vulnerable. In this episode, we follow the trail of lies, the red flags that were easy to miss in real time, and the women who eventually connected the dots. It’s a story about trust, manipulation, and how one “perfect man” managed to vanish again and again—until he couldn’t anymore.

  • The Cons of Samantha Azzopardi
    Dec 4 2025
    This week, we’re headed to Dublin, where a silent teenage girl appears out of nowhere on the steps of the GPO. She was shivering, terrified, and seemingly too traumatized to even say her own name. As police scramble to figure out who she is, they uncover drawings that hint at something horrific… and a trail that stretches far beyond Ireland. What starts as a heartbreaking mystery about a possible trafficking victim turns into the twisted, globe-trotting story of Samantha Azzopardi: a woman who slips in and out of identities like costumes, leaving devastated families, terrified teenagers, and baffled authorities in her wake. How does someone build an entire life out of lies, and what does she really get out of it? We’re digging into the many lives of “Con Girl” and the very real damage left behind.

  • The Murder of Rosalio Gutierrez
    Nov 20 2025
    When 40-year-old Rosalio Gutierrez Jr. didn’t send his usual good-morning text, his girlfriend, Sadie, felt that little prickle of worry that’s impossible to ignore. By the time she reached his Kenosha apartment the next day, that worry had turned into something much darker. The patio door was open. Something red was splattered near the entrance. And inside… well, nothing could have prepared her for what she saw through the blinds. Rosalio was nowhere to be found, although the living room told a story no one ever wants to walk into. As detectives begin unraveling what happened inside that apartment, they are quickly pulled into a messy triangle involving a jealous ex, months of stalking behavior, hidden cell phones, late-night spying, and a van that suddenly smells suspiciously like bleach. When police discover a tiny speck of blood that changes everything, the investigation explodes in a whole new direction. But for all the evidence, one thing is still missing: Rosalio.

  • The Nathan Carman Story Part 2
    Nov 13 2025
    Investigators begin to unravel Nathan’s story: his strange calm, his inconsistencies, and a drift path that doesn’t add up. Civil battles follow: an insurance fight over Chicken Pox, and a slayer-statute case that could strip him of his inheritance. Years later, a federal indictment connects his grandfather’s shooting to his mother’s disappearance at sea. With no body, no murder weapon, and a family at war, what, if anything, can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt?

  • The Nathan Carman Story - part 1
    Nov 6 2025
    This episode as well as Part 2 are available ad free at all levels on the Patreon for the first week of release! A cargo ship spots a lone life raft 115 nautical miles south of Martha’s Vineyard. Inside is 22-year-old Nathan Carman. He's alert, steady on his feet, and claiming he’s survived seven days at sea after his fishing boat, Chicken Pox, sank. His mother, Linda, was on the boat with him and is now missing. As investigators press for answers, red flags pile up: no mayday call, an oddly pristine survivor, and a family history that reads like Dynasty meets Shakespeare, complete with a murdered patriarch, a sprawling fortune, and bitter rivalries. Is Nathan just misunderstood… or the common thread in two catastrophes?

  • The Gonzales Family Murders
    Oct 23 2025
    When police arrived at the Gonzales family home in Sydney, Australia, they were met with a gruesome scene: three family members brutally murdered, and their only surviving relative, 20-year-old Sef Gonzales, sobbing hysterically in the driveway. At least, that’s what it looked like. It didn’t take long for detectives to realize something was off. The supposed break-in appeared staged, Sef’s story didn’t line up, and those dramatic tears? Completely dry. What followed was one of the most shocking and twisted murder investigations in Australian history, a story of lies, greed, and a son so desperate for approval and money that he would destroy everything in his path. This week, we’re diving into the horrifying case of Sef Gonzales and the murders of his family, a chilling reminder that sometimes the monster isn’t lurking outside your home… he’s living inside it.
