    11-8 The Turpins
    Jul 12 2024
    I'm baaaaaack!
    I am bringing you a "House of Horrors" story suggested by multiple listeners of the show- The Turpin Family. Thank the Lord no one is killed, but this case is far from having a happy ending. Trigger warning- this case involves child abuse.

    11-7 Taylor Shabusiness - The death of Shad Thyrion
    Apr 18 2024
    This episode is extremely gruesome and disturbing. Fair warning...
    Taylor Shabusiness (there is a story behind this interesting last name) and her boyfriend Shad Thyrion were high on meth when they began to engage in some rather kinky sexual acts- resulting in Shad's death.

    In today's episode, I discuss the 2007 murder of Paige Birgfeld in Grand Junction, CO.

    In the beginning, there are two main suspects- her ex-husbands. I mean... its always the husband, right? But the investigation becomes more complex when Paige's secret life as a high-end escort is revealed.
