We are going to dissect the life and crimes of transient serial killer, Samuel Little. In between the years 1970-2005, this man ravaged women and tore apart families. We are going to take a look at his early life and try and document his many travels and we will end part one with the attack of an unmatched victim in 1984, and then continue on in part two until we talk about his final arrest. Unfortunately, he chose victims who were 'less dead' and whom police and much of the public frankly didn't care about. But they mattered, their stories and their presence here on earth mattered. RIP to the over 50 people that this worm destroyed. Part 2 drops tomorrow. Until then, stay safe. Don't forget to rate and review the pod on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and Subscribe on YouTube!

Belle Gunness, the Black Widow of the Midwest, lured 14 (or 40!!) men to their deaths at her home in La Porte, Indiana, and her crimes came to light in 1908 when her home burst into flames. What happened to Belle Gunness and what do you believe about who started the fire? Was it all a coverup, or did Belle believe she couldn't get away, her back was against the wall, and had had enough? Let's dive into this horrific case and uncover the mystery. I will be back in two weeks with another exciting case.

We are going to talk about the tragic case of little, 5-year old Elijah “Eli” Lewis of New Hampshire. This angel didn't get a chance at the life he deserved, instead he was sent to live with his sorry excuse of a monster and her boyfriend where he was horrifically killed. A very big trigger warning for child abuse, here. RIP little Eli, fly high.

The historical mini today has us looking at the disturbing life and crimes of Jesse Pomeroy, known as America's youngest serial killer. Listener digression advised throughout, however. What he had to endure as a child, and even more so what he inflicted on other children is not for the faint of heart. Truly depraved.

In the final part of our coverage of Heather Hanson's case, her mom has given us the opportunity to listen in on the police footage and I have included 4 separate recordings for us to listen too. First, is Officer Hernandez pulling over Carr for speeding (a mere few hours before his vehicle would collide with Heather's). Second and Third, are clips from former Police Chief Salazar. And Fourth, is Carr's interview at the station. What do you think about this case?? Thank you for trusting me with your daughter's case, Carla. And RIP Heather, you deserved the world, I'm so sorry it was taken from you.

In part 2 in our interview with Carla (Heather's mama), we talk more about the events that unfolded the day of the deadly crash, and the prosecutor who tells the family that they have a good case for Manslaughter against the driver, however, sadly that prosecutor goes MIA and the new DA of Ellis County Ann Montgomery is not giving Heather's case the light of day and refuses to prosecute the driver who hit Heather resulting in her death. Come along with us as we try and figure out WHAT IS GOING ON, and question why Heather doesn't matter to the DA and why she isn't getting the justice she deserves. Thanks for listening.

We are joined by Carla Hanson as she advocates for Justice for her daughter Heather as she was killed 1/29/19 on the I-45 Interstate in Ellis County, Texas, by a driver who should NOT have been driving that day. Heather deserved the world and had a promising career and loving family with her, but her life was taken from her. Why as the driver who caused Heather's death not faced consequences yet? There is a lot in this case that doesn't add up, and we are going to dissect it all with Carla.

November 2, 1999, Byran Uyesugi stormed the offices of his workplace at the Xerox Corp and methodically shot and killed some of his coworkers who he was convinced were trying to make his life miserable and sabotage his career. One even working for the FBI and CIA according to him. However, this sadly was not true and all fabricated in his own sick mind, and 7 men lost their lives because of it. This tragic case was Hawaii's worst mass shooting and it is still rocking the small community who once felt safe.

This case is short, yet somehow JAM-PACKED with everything you could imagine. Murder, a US Capital bomb, an assassination - the twisted mind of Eric Muenter/Frank Holt and the frenzied July 2nd and 3rd, 1915, attacks will leave your mind spinning. In this historical mini, we talk about his at first seemingly normal life and family, then watch it spiral to his second life. Let's dive in.

In the conclusion, into Dennis Nilsen's crimes, we discuss how the media portrayed the victims and looked down on them, his eventual arrest, and finally close the chapter on this disgusting character. A man who took advantage of a marginalized group of people, some just down on their luck and de-humanized them for his sick pleasure. A serious listener digression warning on this one, guys!

Today, we are going to talk about one of Scotland's most notorious serial killers, "The Muswell Hill Murderer and The Kindly Killer..." And if those nicknames weren't bad enough, buckle in, because this guy is one of the worst. Very depraved, evil and we can't trust him as far as we can throw him. I am privileged to have Elisha from Dead On: A True Crime Podcast with me, and she and I dissect this gross man's life to find out why he did what he did and to shed light on his victims who sadly got ignored and stereotyped in the media back in the 70s and 80s.  In part 1, we discuss his early life and background then discuss the first few murders and his first run-in with law enforcement. Part 2 is coming out tomorrow so make sure you check that out as well to finish discussing all the murders, his arrests, and the impact after he's off the streets.

In today's historical mini-sode, we discuss the horrific actions of Andrew Kehoe and the devastating effects it had on the rural, tight knit community. May 18, 1927 a bomb detonated and killed 38 school children and 4 teachers, most of the victims ranging from 4th-6th grade, and tore the community apart. Let's talk about the case, but a trigger warning, the information is very heavy and includes child and animal deaths.

December 16, 2011, Ayla was laid in her bed on a seemingly very normal night to go to sleep. The next morning, she'd be missing and the state of Maine and the country would be turned over on its head in a frenzy. The more time went on, the more people realized there were people who knew more, and people who did not have Ayla's best interests at heart. In this still very active investigation, this no-body case has more questions than answers even after 11 years. Where is Ayla? What happened to her, and why have no criminal charges been filed yet?

In this short episode, we hear the alleged recording of the 911 call that Tim Walthall made to police after he observed Heather Teague's abduction through his telescope August 26, 1995 while she was sunbathing. *Before listening to this please listen to The Abduction of Heather Teague: Interview with Sarah Teague Part 1 AND 2 so you know what we are referencing and all of the details. Sarah Teague said that this call you are hearing isn't the original call at all, rather, it is the 2nd 911 call. She said that when they first heard a recording of Tim Walthall's call that he mentioned that the person who approached Heather on Newburg beach that day was wearing a wig and mosquito netting... as you are going to hear in this recording, he doesn't say that at all. Now the KSP outright deny that there were ever two recordings and this one is the only one that existed. If that is the case, why was the family shown that recording in 2008? That is just one question into the plethora of questions that Sarah has about her daughter's case. And it always circles back to what is the police hiding? Who are they protection and why? and where is Heather Teague? If you know anything that could help the Teague family find Heather and bring her home, please reach out directly to Sarah Teague at Sarah.Teague5@gmail.com Addicted to Crime Podcast is a member of PodMoth Media Network www.addictedtocrime.org imaddictedtocrime@gmail.com

"When hearts break with ours...the walls of injustice will fall down." - Sarah Teague In this second and final part of my interview with Sarah, she dives deep into the sketchy acts of the Kentucky State Police, the corruption, the FBI, the mysterious snuff film and the seeming most probable suspect connected to Heather, whom the police fail to investigate...  this episode is FULL of the convoluted acts of evil individuals. Why oh WHY are they (the KSP) seemingly ignoring evidence and flat out denying clear proof? Sarah has thoughts about that and she shares them all with me in this chilling part 2. CALL TO ACTION: Reach out to Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear and ask him why the Kentucky State Police are sitting on important DNA evidence that could lead to catching the person who abducted Heather Teague in 1995.

In the final part of our deep dive into Danny Rolling's life and crimes, we focus on the victims lives, accomplishments and their impact on the communities they touched. They were truly a light to the world that was prematurely snuffed out. Thankfully though, also in this part, we hear about Danny's downfall and sentencing.

The Gainesville Ripper Danny Rolling's childhood was bleak, and horrific due to the treatment he received from his abusive father. As we see in this episode, he slowly begins to have a disregard for human life and a disrespect for women. In addition to armed burglary and countless rapes, he takes the lives of the Grissom family enjoying their weekend together, and some college students who have their whole lives ahead of them. This episode is bleak and I want to include a trigger warning for a plethora of disturbing topics. Proceed with caution.

During the Victorian period of the United Kingdom, Amelia Dyer was taking advantage of young, single mothers' misfortune and conniving ways to take their money and their children. She would sadly murder the children once they were in her care and disregard them like they were garbage. As it is with all of these asinine serial killers, she got cocky and that was her downfall. Let's dissect this woman's life and go over her crimes in this month's historical mini episode.

In today's episode, we are to talk about the dark deeds of a seemingly unsuspecting individual, Granny Nannie Doss. This case is the perfect example that the outside appearance doesn't exactly show you what the inside is capable of. Nannie doesn't look as terrifying as a man like Richard Ramirez, radiating evil, but on the inside, she is a dark and twisty mess. She had a very, very hard and abusive childhood so it is very hard to listen to her story and not feel some kind of sympathy for her. And that is okay! That is a normal, empathic human response. However, when we see her use those feelings and lash out and enact evil, then we can no longer feel sympathetic to her plights. Hang on for this wild conundrum that is Nannie Doss. *This episode was released to the patreons a month ago, and is now available to the public.

"It [torture] comes from history. It comes from the record of the Inquisition, persecuting heretics and torturing Jews and all that sort of stuff; and it comes from the other side, too, from the Protestants burning the Catholics. It comes from the insensate pursuit of innocent and crazy old women, and from the Puritans in America burning and hanging the witches — and it comes not only from the Christian church but also from the Taliban. Every single religion that has a monotheistic god ends up by persecuting other people and killing them because they don't accept him. Wherever you look in history, you find that. It's still going on.” - Paul Pullman I can think of no greater quote to end our mini-series on human torture and punishments. Join me as I close out our series talking about 9 insane tactics and tools to inflict the most pain. We are talking about the CIA, electric chairs, blood eagles... so hold onto whatever you need to hold onto, this is intense.

Ramirez was a literal piece of human garbage and he tortured, raped and murdered whomever, whenever, and wherever he felt like.

We talk about the victims, and their lives. They were PEOPLE. Mary was a horse lover and 2-time cancer survivor, Patty was a special ED teacher, Mabel “Ma” Bell was described as a “gutsy, independent lady,” and Maria Hernandez who had just gotten shot at RAN BACK to try and help her friend and roommate Dayle Okazaki. These are only a few of the brave souls who lives were ruined by the scumbag that is Richard Ramirez. This is part 1.

Melissa Sue Platt was a bright shining soul in her family's life. Her and her sister, Michelle, were two peas in a pod, and basically twins. Until one day, their mom tried to get ahold of Melissa, and couldn't. Finally, Melissa's boyfriend at the time (who had a long history of domestic abuse) cut her family off completely and unplugged the answering machine. A welfare check on Melissa, turned into a gruesome rescue when officers found her alone, bruised, bleeding with a broken jaw and unresponsive. She was naked, wrapped in a blanket and had been there between 6-11 days. The explanation? She “fell in the bathroom,” then “she fell on the porch outside.” Neither one made sense, however, no charges had ever been filed. But the tides may be turning in the family's favor, as after over a decade of hard work and endurance, they're finally close to getting answers and getting justice for Melissa. (FYI Don't forget to listen to Episode 18 on Melissa's case for the complete background before listening to this episode) I'm very thankful to Michelle for coming on and bravely sharing her sister's story. Listeners, please considering following her social medias to stay up to date with the case & please consider giving to support the family.  Thanks for the support, and stay safe.    ADs: Addicted to Crime Podcast is a proud member of Podmoth Network Check out Doe Identify Podcast    Socials: “Justice for Melissa Platt” Facebook Group https://t.co/Nr4z4vJXbh “Justice for Melissa Platt” Twitter  https://twitter.com/justice4mplatt?s=21&t=zDnTDyFsAgn3TlBiow1mBg @Justice4MPlatt Go Fund Me to Support Family -https://t.co/rXhtqdm9LQ Mile Higher Podcast's Interview with Michelle Mims https://youtu.be/qHKg6kH2YNo   Imaddictedtocrime@gmail.com (Please send Case Suggestions and Business Inquiries here)   www.addictedtocrime.org

Lou Castro (aka Daniel Perez, master manipulator) was a man who seemed to have this ability to draw families to him and convince them of the seemingly impossible. He would use his influence to even allegedly convince people to commit suicide under the guise that he could bring them back to life in a newer, healthier body. Let's talk about the horrors that went on in the Angel's Landing commune in Wichita, Kansas and see if we can backtrack Daniel Perez's confusing early life of crime and watch it progress to cult leader turned insurance scammer and convicted murderer.
