    In 1978, 15-year-old Barbara Nantais was brutally murdered on Torrey Pines State Beach in San Diego, California, while camping with her boyfriend, Jim Alt, who was severely injured but survived. She was beaten, strangled, sexually assaulted, and mutilated. The case went cold due to insufficient evidence. Six years later, in 1984, 14-year-old Claire Hough, visiting from Rhode Island, was found murdered on the same beach with similar injuries—strangled, sexually assaulted, and mutilated. In 2012, DNA evidence linked Claire’s murder to Ronald Tatro, a convicted rapist, and Kevin Brown, a former San Diego Police Department criminalist. Tatro died in 2011, and Brown died by suicide in 2014 before charges were filed, amid claims of possible evidence contamination. Despite similarities, police concluded the murders were not connected. Barbara’s killer remains unidentified, and both cases remain unresolved, leaving lasting grief for the victims’ families.

    Judy Buenoano (born Judias Anna Lou Welty in Texas on April 4, 1943) was an American serial killer, infamously dubbed “the Black Widow.” She was convicted of murdering her first husband, son, and attempting to kill her fiancé—primarily for financial gain through life insurance payouts. Her crimes culminated in a trio of convictions—including two murders and one attempted murder—and she paid with her life in Florida’s electric chair.

  • Episode 142: The Disappearance of Joshlin Smith
    2025/06/27

    Send us a text

    Joshlin Smith was a 6‑year‑old South African girl who vanished from her home in Middelpos, Saldanha Bay near Cape Town on 19 February 2024. Her disappearance triggered a massive search, including community efforts and an Interpol inquiry, but she remains missing. Her mother, Racquel “Kelly” Smith, along with her boyfriend Jacquen Appollis and friend Steveno van Rhyn, were arrested and charged with kidnapping and human trafficking, accused of orchestrating a plot to sell Joshlin to a traditional healer (a “sangoma”) for her eyes and fair skin. Neighbor witness Lourentia Lombaard testified that Smith admitted “I did something silly… I sold my child to a sangoma,” and described seeing the mother leaving with Joshlin in a white vehicle. In May 2025, all three were convicted of kidnapping and human trafficking. Kelly Smith and her co-accused were sentenced to life in prison, with an additional concurrent 10‑year term for kidnapping. The judge noted a lack of remorse from the defendants during sentencing. Despite the conviction, Joshlin’s whereabouts remain unknown and the search continues, supported by both local police and Interpol.

  • Episode 141: The Murder of Jason Corbett // Part 2
    2025/06/20

    Send us a text

    Jason Corbett, an Irish businessman living in North Carolina, was brutally murdered on August 2, 2015, by his wife, Molly Martens, and her father, retired FBI agent Tom Martens. He was beaten to death in his bedroom with a baseball bat and a concrete brick. Molly and Tom claimed they acted in self-defense, alleging Jason was abusive. However, prosecutors argued the killing was motivated by a custody dispute over Jason’s two children, whom he had with his late first wife.

    In 2017, both were convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to 20–25 years in prison. The convictions were later overturned, and in 2023, they accepted a plea deal for voluntary manslaughter. After serving around four years, they were released in June 2024. The case remains highly controversial, with divided public opinion over whether it was an act of protection or premeditated murder.

  • Episode 139: Botched Executions // Part 2
    2025/06/06

    Send us a text

    Join us this week as Lindsay lays our the grisly details on what can happen when a death penalty execution goes wrong. Part 2 is finally here and it was worth the wait! Part 2 brings us to more modern times as Lindsay breaks down the issues in the firing squad, the gas chamber, the electric chair, and lethal injection.


    Botched executions refer to instances where the process of carrying out a death penalty is flawed, leading to prolonged suffering, physical complications, or failure to follow protocols. These incidents can occur across various methods of execution, including lethal injection, electrocution, gas chambers, firing squads, and hanging. Common causes include improper drug administration, equipment malfunction, or human error. Lethal injection, the most commonly used method in the U.S., has faced significant scrutiny for its risk of painful complications due to drug shortages and improper training. Botched executions have sparked ethical debates, raising concerns about the cruelty and reliability of capital punishment, and have fueled broader calls for reform or abolition of the death penalty in many regions.

  • Episode 138: The Haight Family Familicide
    2025/05/30

    Send us a text

    Michael Haight was a 42-year-old man from Enoch, Utah, who, on January 4, 2023, killed his wife, Tausha Haight; their five children, aged 4 to 17; and Tausha’s mother, Gail Earl, before taking his own life. The tragedy occurred two weeks after Tausha filed for divorce and days after Michael removed firearms from the home, potentially leaving the family defenseless. In 2020, Michael Haight had been investigated for child abuse following allegations from his daughter, Macie, who reported incidents of choking and shaking. Although the investigation concluded there was insufficient evidence for prosecution, the case raised concerns about his behavior. Prior to the killings, Haight had expressed concerns about maintaining a facade of a perfect life, both personally and professionally. He had recently lost his job at Allstate Insurance and was reportedly seeking to start his own agency. The murder-suicide shocked the tight-knit community of Enoch, where many residents knew the family through their shared involvement in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The incident has been a somber reminder of the complexities surrounding domestic violence and the devastating impact of family tragedies.

    Ash Armand, born Akshaya Kubiak, is a former reality TV star known for his role in Showtime’s Gigolos. In July 2020, he was arrested for the murder of Herleen Dulai, a 29-year-old personal trainer and client. Dulai was found dead in Kubiak’s Las Vegas home, having suffered blunt force trauma and strangulation. Kubiak claimed he blacked out after consuming psychedelic mushrooms with Dulai and acted in self-defense during an alleged attack. However, evidence indicated a violent struggle, and Kubiak was charged with first-degree murder. In September 2021, he pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and mayhem to spare Dulai’s family a trial. He was sentenced to 8 to 20 years in prison and is currently incarcerated at the Southern Desert Correctional Center in Nevada, with eligibility for parole in 2028.
