  • Dead Men Tell No Tales: Chelsea Perkins Fatal Revenge

    Dead Men Tell No Tales: Chelsea Perkins Fatal Revenge
    Sep 26 2025
    In tonight’s episode of Serial Napper, we’re diving into the twisted case of Chelsea Perkins—better known online as OnlyFans model Sabrina Savage. Chelsea claimed she was tired of being a victim, and in 2021, she tracked down the man she said raped her, 31-year-old musician and father of two, Matthew Dunmire. She lured him out under the guise of reconnecting, drove him into Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and shot him in the back of the head. But Chelsea wasn’t the only one fueled by revenge. As investigators built their airtight case against her, Matthew’s grieving parents launched a deadly plan of their own, one that ended in even more tragedy. This is a story about obsession, about the fallout when justice feels out of reach, and about how revenge rarely ends where you think it will.

  • His Sister’s Secret: The Story of Charlie Brandt

    His Sister’s Secret: The Story of Charlie Brandt
    Sep 19 2025
    On the surface, Charlie Brandt looked like a quiet, ordinary man who loved fishing, drinking, and his wife, Teri. But in 2004, when he murdered Teri and brutally killed his niece Michelle Jones before hanging himself, investigators uncovered a nightmare decades in the making. This episode dives into Charlie’s violent past, beginning at age 13 when he killed his mother—the secrets his family buried, and the trail of victims he likely left behind. From the confirmed murder of Sherry Perisho to cold cases eerily matching his signature brutality, we’ll piece together how one man hid his darkness in plain sight. What makes a serial killer? Was Charlie a product of trauma, a family that refused to face the truth, or something much darker? And how many victims will never be known?

  • The Devil in Bellaire: Nathan Brooks and the Murder of His Parents

    The Devil in Bellaire: Nathan Brooks and the Murder of His Parents
    Sep 15 2025
    In 1995, 17-year-old Nathan Brooks promised his classmates he’d be “famous by Saturday.” What no one realized was just how horrifyingly true that would become. On September 30th, in Bellaire, Ohio, Nathan murdered his parents in what he believed was a satanic ritual — shooting and decapitating his father, stabbing and bludgeoning his mother, and leaving behind a chilling hit list of names that included his own brother. The brutality of the crime shook the entire town, cancelling Halloween and sparking decades of fear and questions about how no one stopped him sooner. Almost thirty years later, Nathan Brooks is serving a life sentence but is now eligible for parole. Has he changed, or are some crimes too horrific for second chances? Join me as we unpack the warning signs, the murders, the trial, and the ongoing debate over whether the so-called “Devil in Bellaire” should ever walk free again.

  • She Lived Fiercely. He Took It Away: The Murder of Onyx Cornish

    She Lived Fiercely. He Took It Away: The Murder of Onyx Cornish
    Sep 12 2025
    Hope “Onyx” Cornish was just 18 years old when her life was stolen inside her Caldwell, Idaho home. Bold, stylish, and unapologetically herself, Onyx was queer, trans, and known for her kindness, empathy, and fierce individuality. She was thriving—sober for over a year, in a new relationship, working shifts at Wendy’s—when her adoptive father, Delbert Cornish, carried out a plan he admitted he had been thinking about for more than a year. On August 18, 2025, Delbert shot his daughter in the head, then draped her body in a Pride flag in what he later claimed was a twisted gesture of “honor.” He wrote suicide notes on the walls, killed her cat, and confessed that he had wanted to kill all of his children before taking his own life. Onyx’s younger brother fought back, disarming him and escaping, saving his own life in the process. Now, Delbert faces charges of first-degree murder, aggravated assault, and animal cruelty. Prosecutors say their case is built on overwhelming evidence, including Delbert’s own confessions and notes. A trial date is set for January 2026. Meanwhile, Onyx’s family, friends, and community continue to mourn and demand justice—not just in the courtroom, but in how she is remembered: as an outspoken, radiant teen who lived authentically in a world that too often wanted her quiet.

  • Angel-Faced Killer or Victim? The Case of Sarah Grace Patrick

    Angel-Faced Killer or Victim? The Case of Sarah Grace Patrick
    Sep 5 2025
    When 16-year-old Sarah Grace Patrick picked up the phone to call 911, she said she had just found her mother and stepfather brutally murdered in their Carroll County, Georgia home. Her 5-year-old sister made the gruesome discovery first, walking into their bedroom to see the unimaginable. But months later, investigators say Sarah wasn’t just a witness—she was the killer. Charged with two counts of murder and two counts of aggravated assault, Sarah now faces the rest of her life in prison. In this episode, we’ll walk through the disturbing case that has left a small southern community in shock: the custody battles, the chaotic family history, Sarah’s haunting eulogy at the funeral, and her bizarre social media activity where she allegedly reached out to true crime bloggers before her arrest. Was Sarah a cold-blooded teen murderer, or is there more to this story than meets the eye?

  • Murder in a Military Tent: The Case of LaVena Johnson

    Murder in a Military Tent: The Case of LaVena Johnson
    Aug 29 2025
    In July 2005, 19-year-old Army Private First Class LaVena Johnson was found dead on a U.S. base in Balad, Iraq. The Army ruled it a suicide. Her family has spent nearly two decades saying otherwise. From the very beginning, the official story didn’t add up. The gunshot wound was inconsistent with her M16 rifle. Her body showed burns, bruises, and evidence of sexual assault. Acid had been poured on her, gloves glued to her hands, and her body was discovered inside a burning contractor’s tent — details that somehow never made it into the Army’s report. The Johnson family has fought relentlessly for answers, uncovering documents, autopsy reports, and crime scene photos that point to murder and a cover-up. But nearly twenty years later, the case remains closed, stamped as “suicide.” This episode looks at who LaVena was, what really happened to her in Iraq, and why her family refuses to let the truth be buried.

  • The Disappearance of Bethany Markowski: Did She Ever Make It to the Mall?

    The Disappearance of Bethany Markowski: Did She Ever Make It to the Mall?
    Aug 22 2025
    On March 4, 2001, 11-year-old Bethany Markowski vanished during what was supposed to be a routine weekend visit with her father, Larry. He says she went into the Old Hickory Mall in Jackson, Tennessee, while he napped in the van. But there’s one big problem—security footage shows no sign she was ever there. In this episode, we’ll dig into Bethany’s life before she disappeared, the volatile custody battle between her parents, and the messy, conflicting timeline that day. We’ll talk about phone pings that don’t match Larry’s story, witnesses who contradict his version of events, and the eerie gaps in time where no one—not even her own family—knows where Bethany was. We’ll also explore the strange reported sightings over the years, including a chilling 2016 case where a girl in East Tennessee claimed she was Bethany…and knew details only Bethany could have known. Twenty-plus years later, her mother, Jonnie, is still fighting to find her daughter, still pushing for answers, and still calling out the system that failed to protect Bethany in the first place. If you have any information about the disappearance of Bethany Markowski, please contact the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation at 1-800-TBI-FIND.

  • Gone in 150 Feet: The Mysterious Case of Garrett Bardsley

    Gone in 150 Feet: The Mysterious Case of Garrett Bardsley
    Aug 15 2025
    In August 2004, 12-year-old Boy Scout Garrett Bardsley vanished in Utah’s High Uintas Wilderness — just 150 feet from his campsite. He had been fishing with his father at Cuberant Lake when he stepped into cold water, soaking his shoes and socks. Garrett told his dad he was heading back to camp to change… but he never arrived. What followed was one of the largest search efforts in the state’s history — hundreds of searchers, helicopters, dogs, and thermal imaging — but no sign of Garrett was ever found. Not his fishing pole. Not his clothes. Only a single sock, later disputed as even being his. In this episode of Serial Napper, we explore the mysterious disappearance of Garrett Bardsley, the theories of what could have happened in the rugged Uintas terrain, and the heartbreaking legacy left behind — including the creation of the Garrett Bardsley Foundation, which continues to help in search and rescue operations today. Could Garrett have gotten lost? Was there an animal encounter? Or did something more sinister happen in those mountains? 🕵️‍♀️ If you have any information on this case, contact the Summit County Sheriff’s Office.
