True Crime Creepers

• The Murder of Holly Williams

  This week, we’re covering the shocking double murder of Holly Williams and her boyfriend Bill Lanway who were found shot to death in a car off the highway in Nashville in March 2020. At first, it looked like a tragic car accident, but what police uncovered pointed to something far more sinister. Holly, a Nashville aesthetician with a secret life, had unknowingly become the center of a dangerous web involving blackmail and a hit squad of ex-military operatives, hired not by a cartel or crime boss, but by a wealthy Texas car dealer trying to protect his reputation.

• The Kilgore Rangerettes Kidnapping

  It started as a normal evening in Longview, Texas. Dana Blair and her daughter Alexa were packing for a trip to the Cotton Bowl, where Alexa was set to perform for the first time as a Kilgore College Rangerette. But when a woman knocked on their door wearing a wig and covering her face with a greeting card, everything changed. This week, Kristin tells the unbelievable true story of a home invasion and kidnapping driven by drill team drama, Facebook connections, and a shocking grudge. The case would lead police to Nancy Motes, a mother whose obsession with her daughter’s high school dance career escalated into a violent act that no one could have predicted.

• The Murder of Jorge Torres

  It’s one of the most bizarre and disturbing cases we’ve covered yet: when Sarah Boone called 911 in 2020 to report her boyfriend dead, she claimed it was all a tragic accident during a game of hide and seek. But the body of Jorge Torres told a different story.... and so did the videos Sarah forgot to delete. This week, we’re diving into the shocking case of Sarah Boone, the Florida woman who said she zipped her boyfriend into a suitcase “as a joke” and then left him there overnight. But investigators quickly found evidence that shattered her version of events, including horrifying footage of Jorge pleading for his life and Sarah laughing in response. We’ll break down the twisted timeline, the toxic relationship history, the long delayed trial, and the controversial use of battered woman syndrome as a defense. Was this a case of reactive abuse pushed to the limit, or calculated revenge? And what does justice look like when both people in a relationship have been hurt?

• FROM THE VAULT: The Satanic Panic

  Due to unforeseen scheduling craziness, we were unable to record an episode this week, so thought we'd drop one of our favorites from the vault! In this bonus episode, Kristin tells Mogab all about the Satanic Panic of the 80's and 90's, starting with the book Michelle Remembers, a controversial "memoir" detailing repressed memories of satanic ritual abuse, and culminating in the McMartin Preschool Trial where several employees at the preschool were accused of performing satanic ritual abuse on children (spoiler... none of it was true).

• The Murders of Olivia Hope and Ben Smart

  On New Year’s Eve 1997, 17-year-old Olivia Hope and her close friend Ben Smart vanished after a party at the remote Furneaux Lodge in New Zealand’s stunning Marlborough Sounds. They were last seen boarding a water taxi in the early hours of the morning with a man who’s never been conclusively identified. What followed was one of New Zealand’s most high-profile investigations, leading to the arrest and conviction of Scott Watson — a man who still claims he’s innocent. But the deeper you look into this case, the murkier it gets. With wildly conflicting witness statements, contaminated evidence, an allegedly unreliable memory, and new information buried for decades, this case has everything: mystery, obsession, media bias, and a whole lot of reasonable doubt ... or is there? Today, Kristin dives deep into the 40,000-page police file and multiple sources on both sides of this controversial case to try and answer one big question: Did Scott Watson really kill Ben and Olivia… or was he wrongfully convicted?
