Heather Morgan wanted to be famous. Years before the world knew her as Razzlekhan—the self-proclaimed "Crocodile of Wall Street" and creator of some truly unforgettable rap videos—she built a career as an entrepreneur, writer, and startup founder. Alongside her husband, Ilya "Dutch" Lichtenstein, she cultivated a quirky online persona that seemed more cringe than criminal. But behind the scenes, federal investigators were tracking billions of dollars in stolen cryptocurrency linked to one of t...

In 1998, 6 year old Brooke Sutton survived a brutal attack that left her grandmother, Judy Johnson, dead. When Brooke identified her Uncle Clarence as the attacker, police quickly built their case around him, and despite a complete lack of physical evidence, he was convicted and sent to prison for life. But one person refused to believe the verdict: Judy's daughter, Melinda. As appeals failed and the justice system closed ranks, she launched her own investigation, following leads police ignored...

When Peggy Carr suddenly became violently ill in October 1988, doctors were baffled. She complained of excruciating pain in her feet, began losing weight at an alarming rate, and eventually slipped into a coma. Then other members of her family started showing the same mysterious symptoms. As panic spread through their small Florida community, investigators discovered the family had been exposed to a rare and highly toxic poison. But how had it gotten into their home? And more importantly, who w...

In February 2005, Danielle Imbo and Richard Petrone Jr. left a bar on Philadelphia’s South Street after a fun night out with friends — and were never seen again. Even more bizarre? Richard’s massive black Dodge Dakota truck vanished with them, without leaving behind a single trace. What began as a missing persons case quickly spiraled into one of Philadelphia’s most baffling mysteries. Investigators uncovered a contentious divorce, threatening phone calls, rumors of organized crime involvement,...

This week, we’re heading deep into the Alaskan wilderness to cover one of the most chilling mass murders in the state’s history — the 1983 McCarthy massacre. McCarthy wasn’t just remote… it was practically off the grid entirely. A tiny community tucked inside Wrangell-St. Elias National Park where residents crossed icy rivers by hand-powered tram, recognized each other by boot prints in the snow, and gathered every Tuesday for the biggest event of the week: mail day. But on March 1st, 1983, th...

Jason Young was three hours away when his wife was murdered. Receipts, surveillance footage, phone records—on paper, everything checks out. He was exactly where he said he was. But the more investigators dig in, the more that story starts to fall apart. There’s a gap in the timeline no one can fully explain. A security camera that was tampered with. A strange stop at a gas station that raises more questions than answers. And piece by piece, it starts to look less like coincidence… and more lik...

A routine favor turns into a nightmare. When Meredith Fisher agrees to stop by her sister’s house, something feels off the moment she arrives—lights on in the middle of the day, a dog whining inside, a door that won’t open. What she finds upstairs will haunt her forever: a brutal crime scene, her sister dead, and a child left behind in the aftermath. As investigators begin to piece together what happened inside that house on Birchleaf Drive, the picture that emerges is anything but simple. A m...

What starts as a messy love triangle and a drunken fight quickly spirals into something much darker. By the next morning, one man is dead, one woman is critically injured, and the person responsible has already fled the scene. But the biggest question isn’t just what happened—it’s who should be held accountable in the end.

What's that saying about the best laid plans? Well, ours were derailed this week and unfortunately we were not able to record an episode. But with Mogab's recent visit to the Masters tournament, we thought it was a good time to drop our episode, originally a mini creep over on our Patreon, about that time #1 golfer in the world Scottie Scheffler was arrested at the PGA championship.

Dr. Amie Harwick was a well known therapist in Los Angeles with a full life and a wide circle of friends, but on Valentine's Day 2020, that life was cut short in a shocking attack at her home. At first, the case left investigators trying to figure out what had even happened. But as they dug deeper, a clearer picture started to form - one that pointed to a history that couldn’t be ignored and a situation that may have been building for much longer than anyone realized. Sponsors: 🛍️ Quince – Go t...

After her death, one doctor refuses to let the case go. What he uncovers transforms a so-called “mysterious illness” into something far more sinister—and far more intentional. As investigators begin piecing things together, a chilling pattern emerges, pointing toward someone who was there all along. But in a case built almost entirely on circumstantial evidence, proving it won’t be easy. Because when there’s no direct proof, the question becomes: is it enough to convince a jury… and expose a kil...

When 40-year-old Esther Castellani begins experiencing strange and worsening symptoms, doctors can’t figure out what’s wrong. What starts as stomach pain quickly turns into something far more serious—numbness, vomiting, and a steady, terrifying decline that no one can explain. As Esther fights to get better, her husband, Rene Castellani, plays the role of devoted partner… but behind the scenes, his life is moving in a very different direction. With rumors swirling and Esther’s condition growing ...

On Mother’s Day 2020, 49-year-old Suzanne Morphew went out for a bike ride near her home in Salida, Colorado… and never came back. At first, it looked like a tragic accident, maybe even a mountain lion attack. But the deeper investigators dug, the stranger things became. A missing phone. A staged scene. A husband with a story that kept shifting. And digital evidence that told a very different version of events. Then came the secrets: an affair no one saw coming, a hidden recording device, and ...

A glamorous Fort Worth mansion. A bitter divorce. A masked gunman waiting in the dark. When Priscilla Davis came home just after midnight, she never imagined the night would end in bloodshed. Before the sun came up, two people would be dead, two more wounded, and one of Texas’s richest men would be at the center of it all. This week, we’re diving into the shocking murders of Stan Farr and Andrea Wilborn — a case filled with wealth, power, scandal, and a trial that left people questioning wheth...

What begins as a search for the person responsible quickly turns into something far more unsettling as buried connections, strange evidence, and overlooked details from the past begin to surface. As the investigation unfolds, detectives realize this tragedy may not be an isolated act of violence. The deeper they dig, th...

This episode contains discussion of child abuse. In part 1, Ruby Franke went all-in on Jodi Hildebrandt, to the point of inviting her to move into the house. That’s when everything truly crossed the line. Kevin is pushed out. Chad and Shari are cut off. The younger kids disappear from view. And people around them can tell something is wrong, but no one can get close enough to prove it. Until August 2023, when a 12 year old boy gets out and asks a neighbor for help, setting off a truly unbelie...

This episode contains discussion of child abuse. Ruby Franke built an empire on being the “perfect” mom. Millions of followers watched her raise six kids, share parenting advice, and present a picture-perfect family life. But behind the wholesome image, things weren’t as perfect as they seemed. Viewers began noticing punishments that felt extreme… then disturbing… then impossible to ignore. In 2023, Ruby Franke was arrested for child abuse, alongside a woman many people had never heard of, bu...

In 1976, 20-year-old Tulane student Ken Gutzeit was stabbed to death in front of dozens of witnesses outside his fraternity house. His killer was arrested, and then... nothing happened. No trial. No conviction. No justice. Ken’s case has been largely forgotten, it's mentioned only briefly in Netflix’s Worst Roommate Ever as the event that allegedly changed Jamison Bachman’s life. But the real story is far more disturbing. How does someone commit a public killing with eyewitnesses and a weapon...
