She even is said to have made a deal with the devil in order to maintain her youthful beauty.

Until the day the demon came.

As shared in part one of her story, Kiersten Hathcock is a multi-crime survivor, self-taught carpenter, entrepreneur, author, volunteer intuitive medium, and co-founder of the non-profit organization, The National Institute of Law and Justice. Although she was born and raised in Ohio, her journey has taken her to many places and through many professional phases. It wasn't until turning 36 that her trajectory became much more spiritually-based, and she realized she had become re-attuned to an ability she had first experienced as a child. In the process, she would also recover memories of her own childhood sexual abuse. In uncovering her past, as well as many other victims' untold narratives, she has become an advocate for the voiceless within her work. Since starting her volunteer role as a medium in cold case murders and other related crimes, she has helped bring justice and/or solace to families across the country. The Broken Cycle Media team is so grateful for her energy, advocacy, and openness to share, and the listener's nuanced understanding of Kiersten's narrative.

The three mustaches discuss the disturbing case of the Bever family in Broken Arrow, OK. At around 11:30 p.m. on July 22, 2015, police were alerted to 709 Magnolia Court by a 911 phone call made by 12-year-old Daniel Bever, who stated his brother was attacking the family. Screaming, commotion, and a male voice were heard in the background before the line went dead. Dispatchers tracked the address by searching the number. After a failed attempt to contact the father, David Bever, they dispatched officers to the scene.Try Our New 8% Seltzers at HardAFseltzer.comGet 20% StrikeForceEnergy.com with Promo Code: DrinkinBrosSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/crime-corner-with-jessie-wiseman/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On June 24th, 2007, Chris Benoit failed to appear at a WWE Pay Per View event he was scheduled to perform at telling fellow co workers his wife and child were sick. At the next day's TV event, he still hadn't showed up and nobody heard from him in over 24 hours. That day, three bodies were found in his home which was confirmed to be that of him and his wife and child. What was initially thought of as an untimely tragedy soon turned into to something horrific and unimaginable as the news progressed to what actually occurred over that fateful weekend.Check out our YouTube where we post shorts, clips, full episodes, and exclusives!youtube.com/@bangdangnetworkBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/show/outlaws-gunslingers/support.

The holidays are upon us, and what better way to celebrate than with more themed murder cases! This week we're diving back into a topic we have previously visited, but this time we're putting a wintery spin on things and bringing you four horrible cases of society murders committed during the holidays (or at least in the wintertime, if nothing else!) From a would be socialite found dead in a closet, to a spoiled brat acting as only a brat can, we have a group of cases that will make you think twice about vacationing at a resort town (or raising rich kids!)

How many times have you heard of family members being murdered by one of their own. In the recent times, we've witnessed the murders of children by their own parents who eventually kill themselves too, the most recent being the mother in Eastern Cape who poisoned three of her children to death before dying by suicide in Lusikisiki. What causes this tragedy? What leads somebody to that thought before even committing the action. Joining us to unpack the psychology of Familicide, is Clinical and Forensic psychologist, Ivan De Klerk.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
War trauma leads to a wide range of psychological consequences and disorders that can be quite disabling to individuals and their families. At times of war, existing resources become limited to deal with all demands of trauma sufferers. The current conflict between Israel and Palestine prompts one to question the impact of this war on children and how that trauma manifests as they grow older. For a child born into a war-torn country, raised in it and survives into adulthood, what kinds of therapy are available to deal with that kind of trauma? Talking to us about this is Dr Zlatina Kostova, a clinical psychologist based in the US who's involved in a project that treats Ukrainian children and families affected by the war since March 2022.

(Sparkles) *** An old man opens up to something that happened to him over six decades ago that he has never told anyone before – something that he says ruined his life. (Something Happened 63 Years Ago) *** A woman in bed is startled awake in the middle of the night when she feels someone pull her arm out from under her head – but she's the only one in her apartment. (Someone Or Something Moved My Hand) *** We'll look at a brief history of the classic Lon Chaney film, “The Phantom of the Opera” - and how the film itself has a haunting attached to it! (The Real Horror Behind The Phantom Of The Opera) *** Mirrors, mirrors, mirrors everywhere. The more mirrors Lucida had the more she could admire herself. She even is said to have made a deal with the devil in order to maintain her youthful beauty. (The Creepy Story of Lucida Mansi) *** Village life in Lemont, Illinois was as peaceful as it could be, and the Willmans farm was one of the collection of typical sleepy homesteads in the region. Until the day the demon came. (The Demon of Lemont) *** Chillingly, statistics suggest that a child is more likely to be killed by a parent than by a stranger and in most cases, the killer takes his own life after the act. We'll look into the disturbing psychology of family annihilators.

Familicide is impossible to understand. How does a family member kill their entire family? The Lawson Family Murders took place on Christmas Day in 1929. Left in the wake of Charlie Lawson's murderous rampage were the bodies of his wife and six of his children. Also left behind is some spiritual residue in several locations connected to the murders.

Happy Father's Day! (welcome to our Collaboration) For many this is a happy occasion & a time to celebrate, though the stories gathered here in honor of the holiday will leave you with a number of horrifying questions. What kind of dark secrets could drive a father towards an unhealthy obsession, abuse, or worse yet, to even kill his entire family? Could an unassuming father figure be driven by greed to commit a heinous crime that forever scars the date? Join That's So Fucked Up, Twisted and Uncorked, PNW Haunts & Homicides, Weird Distractions, Ye Olde Crime, & Sandman Stories for a holiday collaboration of epic and horrifying proportions as we delve into cases that range from the heartbreaking to healing.(0:03:00) - A Murder Most Foul in a Victorian Mansion John List's prideful decision to hide his layoff from his family is often pointed to as the beginning of the end for the List family. One man's perceived downfall would lead to the eventual murder of his entire family in a 19 room Victorian mansion.(0:18:09) - Tragic Honor KillingsThese twisted honor killings resulted in the death of two teenage girls following years of abuse and surveillance that they endured at their father's own hands in his ruthless pursuit of control. Sadly, after Amina and Sarah were tracked down in Oklahoma they would be brutally executed by Yaser Abdel Said, the very many who should have loved them most. (0:36:26) - The Father's Day Bank MassacreWe'll let you be the judge of the evidence presented in the Denver, Colorado case of the 1991 Father's Day Massacre. Was James King a precise and cunning killer who pulled off the perfect heist, or a convenient and unlucky scapegoat doomed to live out his days in solitude and under suspicion?(0:45:42) - Deadly Dessert Travis Stackhouse was convicted of homicide, child neglect, and child abuse due to evidence of blunt force trauma and a criminal record. The cause of his incredibly senseless act of violence will leave you absolutely speechless. (0:52:10) Yeeted into Old-Timey Familicide This story takes us back to 1873, still years ahead of the Whitechapel slayings known as the canonical five, the victims of none other than Jack the Ripper. Though as you'll soon learn, a dreadful murder, indeed, took place in London that year. (1:03:55) - Sandman StoriesThis Sandman Story tells of a mighty hunter, his children, and the sage wisdom of his wife.

Abi tells the horrifying story of how two brothers chose to murder their family. A thunderstorm is actively happening throughout the recording and can be heard in the background* Homeschooled and largely secluded with their family in a suburb of Oklahoma, teen brothers Robert and Michael Bever spent much of their free time researching serial killers. They grew more and more attracted to the notoriety and fame and thus planned to use their seclusion to their advantage. Had it not been for a 911 call, the young killers may have gotten away with more than they did, luckily there was some justice. TW: graphic material
In March of 1992, a vicious murder in one of Fort Worth's richest neighborhoods shook the community. Businessman and former banker Jack Koslow, along with his wife, former banker and patron of the arts Caren Koslow, were viciously attacked in their home in the middle of the night.

On September 19th, 2009, a cloud of unimaginable violence and darkness shrouded the city of Naples. It was a crime described as the worst of the worst - Mesac Damas had murdered his wife Guerline, and their five children. After the killings, he fled to Haiti, where he was eventually captured. He confessed to the murders but blamed his mother-in-law for "voodooing his ass" and casting a bad spirit in him.Join us on Facebook and IG: @HARDCORETRUECRIMEWeb: www.crimesandconsequences.com-------->Get ad-free early releases of each episode, plus over 170 exclusive Members Only episodes by going to Patreon.com/tntcrimes or joining our Apple Channel on the Apple Podcast App. ------>Sources:1) Accused killer Mesac Damas wants to represent himself - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92VVwOyoFHw2) Mesac Damas to judge: May my blood be upon your shoulders - https://www.naplesnews.com/story/news/archive/2017/03/09/changed-man-confessed-family-killer-mesac-damas-claims-new-creature-christ/98973172/3) A changed man?

When a family's financial situation drastically improves, temptation can lurk around every corner. And sometimes, outward appearances completely obscure a less glamorous reality. Chris Foster of Lancashire, England had known a working-class lifestyle for most of his adulthood. In 1997, though, fortune suddenly smiled upon him. At 39 years old, following a monumental tragedy, Foster invented and patented a product that would revolutionize the global oil and gas industries. In a darkly ironic twist, oil would play a major role in the unthinkable crimes he committed in 2008. His crimes shocked all of Britain and made headlines, as far as Australia, for years to come.

IN THIS EPISODE – INCLUDES BLOOPERS AT THE END!: (Dark Archives episode, originally posted November 20, 2019) Weirdo family member, Katie Jo, tells us that as a child she saw something similar to glitter – but in a very supernatural form! (Sparkles) *** An old man opens up to something that happened to him over six decades ago that he has never told anyone before – something that he says ruined his life. (Something Happened 63 Years Ago) *** A woman in bed is startled awake in the middle of the night when she feels someone pull her arm out from under her head – but she's the only one in her apartment. (Someone Or Something Moved My Hand) *** We'll look at a brief history of the classic Lon Chaney film, “The Phantom of the Opera” - and how the film itself has a haunting attached to it! (The Real Horror Behind The Phantom Of The Opera) *** Mirrors, mirrors, mirrors everywhere. The more mirrors Lucida had the more she could admire herself. She even is said to have made a deal with the devil in order to maintain her youthful beauty. (The Creepy Story of Lucida Mansi) *** Village life in Lemont, Illinois was as peaceful as it could be, and the Willmans farm was one of the collection of typical sleepy homesteads in the region. Until the day the demon came. (The Demon of Lemont) *** Chillingly, statistics suggest that a child is more likely to be killed by a parent than by a stranger and in most cases, the killer takes his own life after the act. We'll look into the disturbing psychology of family annihilators.
