Metal For Hire: True Crime Podcast

Albuquerque, New Mexico was the last place you wanted to be between 2001-2006, particularly if you were a dark-haired woman (ala Ted Bundy?). What originally started as a string of missing women reports, eventually led to one of the most prolific serial murderer cases in Albuquerque's recent history. This is a case that haunts Dorian and Alison, the victims' families, and our (local)  community...still to this day.

At an Atmosphere concert on July 16th, 2003, Marissa Mathy-Zvaifler's young life was tragically stolen. Following her death came an overdue jail sentence, bills passed in Marissa's name, and a haunting song by Atmosphere, called 'That Night'.   http://www.marissamission.org/marissa.html    Educating Marissa Documentary https://vimeo.com/242484018?fbclid=IwAR1rrQ_6gR2D-uOjnJuqtPpiC7nnihCsio8POYchjwdcvWQ2CN_etxuUzqs

On a quiet Monday afternoon in the summer of 1999, a woman could be seen running for her life down a dirt road of Elephant Butte, New Mexico. She was nude, bloodied from head to toe, and wrapped around her neck was a padlocked metal collar. This woman was Cynthia Vigil, and she would be the last victim of David Parker Ray, the Toybox Killer.    https://www.trueconsequences.com/   https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/albuquerque/items-david-parker-ray   https://www.streetsafenewmexico.org/ 

Meddling kids, beware. Toybox Killer, David Parker Ray, makes watching any Rob Zombie film feel like a safe and warm walk through the park. Although it is suspected David Parker Ray is responsible for abducting, torturing and killing anywhere from 60 to 100 woman...ZERO bodies have been discovered in relation to David Parker Ray. In Part 1, we discuss the making of one of the most prolific sadist serial killers in recent history, and his freaky 'friend' group.   Cries in the Desert: The Shocking True Story of a Sadistic Torturer, by John Glatt https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781429904711

In 1981, four bodies were found bludgeoned to death inside of 8763 Wonderland Ave. in the hills of Los Angeles, CA. The house was a known drug hot-spot where the Wonderland Gang lived and trafficked drugs out of. On the night of the gruesome murder, many neighboring houses heard screams of terror, but 911 was never called for help. The Wonderland Murders are brought to you by a gaggle of characters including a Porn Star, a drug Kingpin and whole bunch of seedy personalities, as well as innocent and unsuspecting victims who were dragged along for the ride of their life, that was anything but a wonderland.   Crime Scene Walk Through https://vimeo.com/1158214   Dawn Schiller Interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cWQQOmyc7I   Sharon Holmes Obituary https://wonderland1981.com/2013/08/09/the-obituary-for-sharon-holmes/ 

In honor of ½ of this show (co-host, Dorian) turning 28 today, we are covering ‘The 27 Club'!!! The number 27 has become an infamous, fickle little number (SPECIFICALLY) in rock n' roll after BIG musicians: Brian Jones, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, AND Janis Joplin all died at the age of 27, back-to-back in a matter of just 3 years between 1969 and 1971.  So obviously people took notice of this odd coincidence, and the term ‘27 club' started getting thrown around a bit. But it wasn't until 1994 when Kurt Cobain passed away at the age of 27, where all shit hit the fan and the term ‘27 Club' stuck & became a huge phantom phenomenon. We will light-snorkel-dive into a handful of the artists who made a significant mark in our world through their talents, but unfortunately also made way for a permanent '27 Club' residency.   Mia Zapata Case: Jesus Mezquia Court of Appeals records STATE v.

Metal! Murder! Religion?...what do these three topics have in common? This week, Dorian takes the podium as he covers Tim Lambesis, vocalists for the once-Christian metal band, As I Lay Dying. Tim was known and loved by thousands (if not millions) of fans, and well respected in the metal community, until his arrest in 2013 when he unsuccessfully tried to hire a hit man to take out his then-wife, Meggan. Was it a change of heart, lifestyle, or was something more sinister brewing? Only one way to find out...   As I Lay Dying's Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/asilaydying   As I Lay Dying Youtube Page https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC05WaqA-0OLM5Y7NmmHq1hw   Tim Lambesis Instagram https://www.instagram.com/timlambesis/

The luck of the Irish was not with Kenyan native, Farah Noor on March 20th, 2005. When Farah Noor's torso and ligaments were found floating in the Dublin Royal Canal, just a matter of Day's after St. Patrick's Day, police wondered if they had a ritualistic killing on their hands. Little did they know how close to home they would find their suspects.

When the disappearances and murders of two young high school girls are linked, police begin an investigation that they never expected as they reveal a predator long sought after in the Scarborough area, and uncover that another young victim was buried with (some of) her family thinking her death was an accident. It gets rougher and rougher as we go further down the dark rabbit hole that is Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka.   Fireside Chat Transcript (explicit) http://mascaramurder.blogspot.com/2012/03/karla-homolka-and-fireside-chat.html  Impact Statements https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/crushing-and-debilitating-pain-paul-bernardo-parole-board-hears-from-victims-mothers-1.4139378 Paul Rapping Paul Bernardo Rapping - YouTube  Paul Bernardo — Police interrogation of notorious serial killer - YouTube Paul Bernardo Interview part 2 - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBVZ2ew3JJI  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdnS3F4-S_M  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdnS3F4-S_M

Buckle up boys and girls, it's about to get real…gross. On the same day as their fairytale wedding, body parts of one of their victims were discovered. What looked like a 'Ken and Barbie' couple and a match made in heaven, wound up being two wolves in sheep's clothing. Part 1 of Episode #2 takes a deep into the making of not one, but TWO sick sadists: Karla Homolka and Paul Bernardo.
