The Misery Machine

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Ohio to discuss the case of Matthew James Dunmire, a a 31-year-old aspiring musician and father who was murdered in March 2021. His death became the subject of a high-profile federal investigation after his body was discovered in a secluded wooded area of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. On March 5, 2021, Matthew left a local bar to meet a woman he had been communicating with online. Surveillance footage and phone records tracked him to an Airbnb and eventually to the park's Terra Vista Natural Study Area. He was shot once in the back of the head. Hikers discovered his body three days later. Chelsea Perkins (aka Chelsea Savage), a 35-year-old U.S. Coast Guard veteran and adult film performer from Virginia, was identified as the killer. Chelsea lured Matthew to the national park under the false pretense of filming a video. Prosecutors characterized the crime as a calculated "revenge killing". Chelsea had accused Matthew of sexual assault in Virginia Beach back in 2017. Local police investigated at the time, but no charges were filed due to a lack of evidence. In May of 2025, Chelsea Perkins pleaded guilty in federal court to second-degree murder and using a firearm in a violent crime. On September 9, 2025, a federal judge sentenced her to 22.5 years in prison. She is serving her sentence at a federal facility in West Virginia. In December of 2025, a federal judge ordered Chelsea to pay restitution to Matthew's estate and family to cover funeral expenses.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Oklahoma to discuss the case of Dustin Joel Walker and Cherie Dawn Walker, a couple who received life prison sentences in mid-2026 following a horrific child sexual abuse and neglect investigation in Muskogee County. The case came to light in August 2025 when Cherie's 11-year-old daughter gave birth at home without any prenatal care or medical assistance, and subsequent DNA tests proved that her stepfather, Dustin, was the father of the child. : When authorities raided the Muskogee residence, they discovered the couple's five other children (ages 2 to 9) living in absolute squalor. The home had no running water or air conditioning, was heavily doused in animal feces and urine, and the children were found completely unclothed. Cherie's mother, Michelle Lynn Justus, was charged with six counts of felony child neglect. She has not entered a guilty plea, and is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to New Port Richey, Florida, to discuss the case of 41-year-old Scooter Abrahamsen, who was brutally murdered on May 15th, 2010 by pornstar couple Amanda Logue (aka Sunny Dae) and Jason Andrews (aka Addison). Scooter, known locally as a fun-loving biker and owner of Embellishing Tattoo & Piercing (among other businesses), hosted a sex party at his residence. He hired Amanda to work at the party. While guests were present, Amanda and her boyfriend exchanged an extensive series of graphic text messages plotting Scooter's murder and robbery. Once the other guests departed around 5:00 AM, Amanda instructed Scooter to lie face down on a massage table. She then messaged Jason, who was waiting outside in a car, giving him the signal to enter. Together, they attacked Scooter, stabbing him multiple times and fracturing his skull with a sledgehammer. After the murder, they stole $6,000 in cash, credit cards, a laptop, and cameras.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head back to Georgia to discuss the crimes of Sarah Grace Patrick, a teenage girl who, according to prosecutors, killed her mother and stepfather in cold blood. On February 20th, 2025, 41-year-old Kristin Brock and her husband, 45-year-old James Brock were found shot to death in their bed. Their then 5-year-old daughter discovered their bodies. Sarah, who was 16 at the time, called 911. Following the murders, Sarah posted emotional videos on TikTok and delivered a funeral eulogy that concluded with "I'm sorry," which prosecutors contend was part of an effort to manipulate public opinion. She also contacted a number of true crime content creators, begging for them to cover he parent's story... Some did. Sarah remains held without bond at the Carroll County Jail. She has pleaded not guilty, and her biological father, as well as several members of her church have publicly maintained that she is 100% innocent.
