In July of 1993, a group of Florida teenagers committed one of the most shocking and senseless murders in modern true crime history. The crime, later dramatized in the 2001 film Bully, was not the work of hardened criminals or masterminds, but of suburban kids. At the center of the story were two childhood friends: Marty Puccio, quiet and impressionable, and Bobby Kent, a young man many described as charismatic but deeply controlling. Those closest to them claimed Bobby bullied, manipulated, and terrorized Marty for years. Marty's friends convinced themselves the only way to escape Bobby's influence was to kill him.What followed was a clumsy, chaotic, and brutally violent attack carried out in a remote swampy area of Broward County. Their plan unraveled almost immediately, leading to multiple arrests, wildly different prison sentences, and decades of debate about what was true, what was exaggerated, and what was simply self-serving testimony. Was Bobby Kent truly the monster the killers claimed he was? Or did a group of teenagers justify murder by rewriting the story after the fact?

In this episode, we start with Abducted at an HBCU: A Black Girl Missing Movie a gripping Lifetime film that dives into the disappearance of a young woman at a historically Black college. When a student suddenly vanishes, her counselor refuses to look the other way, uncovering a system that too often dismisses missing Black women and girls. The story is fictional, but its message hits painfully close to home.The film shines a light on how the media and institutions frequently overlook these disappearances. How urgency fades, headlines never come, and families are left to fight alone for attention and answers.From there, we turn to the real-life disappearance of 18-year-old Cleashindra Hall, a decades-long missing person case that deserves to be remembered.Cleashindra, or “Clea,” as her family calls her, was an honors student from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, with dreams of becoming a pediatrician. On the evening of May 9, 1994, she finished her shift working for a local business and called her mother to say she'd be home soon. But Cleashindra never made that second call, and she was never seen again.Over the years, her family has searched tirelessly for answers. There were searches, interviews, and countless leads — yet no arrests have ever been made, and no trace of Cleashindra has been found. Despite the time that's passed, her loved ones have never given up.Like the story told in Abducted at an HBCU, Cleashindra's case reflects a painful reality: when young Black women go missing, the attention they receive rarely matches the depth of the loss. This episode is about remembering her, and about refusing to let these stories fade into silence.Sources: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3odKv1Fin0https://www.the-sun.com/news/11962351/lifetime-abducted-hbcu-black-girl-missing/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Cleashindra_HallBlack Girl Gone: The Disappearance of Cleashindra Hall https://www.kark.com/news/local-news/family-of-cleashindra-hall-still-hopes-for-answers-nearly-30-years-after-her-disappearance/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09Z4loP9G5ghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63MC4OwNYmEhttps://news.morehouse.edu/professor-avery-o.-williams-86-writes-screenplay-for-lifetime-original-abducted-at-an-hbcu-a-black-girl-missing-moviehttps://www.fox16.com/news/only-on-fox16-transcribed-interviews-from-larry-amos-following-teenagers-disappearance/https://www.yahoo.com/news/family-cleashindra-hall-still-hopes-221635171.htmlSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Here is an audio preview of one of the new shows coming out on our Strange Midnight AV YouTube channel.
In the early 1990s, the college town of Gainesville,Florida was paralyzed by fear. Over just three days, five students were brutally murdered in their own apartments, victims of Danny Rolling, the man the press would call The Gainesville Ripper. His crimes were savage, his methods deliberate, and the terror he left behind felt like something straight out of a horror movie.Years later, screenwriter Kevin Williamson watched a documentary about those killings while home alone. That fear he experienced while watching that documentary became the spark for Wes Craven's Scream (1996). Set in the quiet town of Woodsboro, Scream follows a masked killer who taunts his victims with phone calls and deadly games, blurring the line between fiction and reality. What began as a true story of terror became a movie that made us all ask the same question…“What's your favorite scary movie?”Sources:World's Most Evil Killers: S3,EP13 https://maamodt.asp.radford.edu/psyc%20405/serial%20killers/rolling,%20danny%20-%202004.pdfhttps://www.ksla.com/video/2024/03/29/archives-murders-tom-julie-sean-grissom-shreveport-la-1989/https://www.shreveporttimes.com/story/news/crime/2019/11/08/grissom-family-murders-shreveport-louisiana-gainesville-murders/4157607002/https://www.aetv.com/articles/how-serial-killer-danny-rolling-inspired-scream-with-his-1990-slayingshttps://people.com/serial-killer-gainesville-ripper-danny-rolling-exclusive-11763591https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Rollinghttps://www.tampabay.com/archive/1993/02/20/5-dead-may-have-been-stalked/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTvIh8rC4akSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this sermon, Pastor Chris Romig delves into Revelation chapter 9, highlighting its relevance to both end-times prophecy and the spiritual challenges Christians face today. He explains how the chapter describes escalating judgments, including the release of demonic hordes and supernatural devastation, yet insists that God remains in control throughout the chaos. Romig interprets the imagery, such as the 200-million-strong army, not as a human military force, but as a representation of a vast demonic onslaught. He connects the historical and spiritual significance of the Euphrates region, showing how patterns of sin and rebellion there foreshadow greater spiritual battles to come. Turning to personal application, Romig warns that Christians, though protected from possession, are still vulnerable to spiritual attacks and demonic influences, especially when opening doors through habitual sin, the occult, unforgiveness, or dishonesty. He urges believers to confess and renounce anything that may give evil a foothold, emphasizing the liberating power and protection found in Jesus Christ. The sermon closes with encouragement: though spiritual warfare is real, Christ's authority and victory are greater. Believers are called to remain vigilant in faith, rely on God's Word, and claim the freedom that Jesus offers in every spiritual battle.
Bedlam, or Bethlem Royal Hospital to give it its full name, is actually the world's oldest psychiatric institution. It began life in 1247 in the Priory of St Mary of Bethlehem, which stood where we now find Liverpool Street Station. Yet the hospital has inspired a range of books, films, and TV series, with its infamous reputation lasting well into the 21st century. The hospital has since become a valued institution for psychiatric treatment, yet the ghost of its former incarnations still linger. After all, the word 'bedlam', meaning chaos, came from this very hospital. People shortened 'Hospital of Saint Mary of Bethlehem' to Bethlem, and then Bedlam, in around the 1660s. The word even went on to inspire the word 'Bedlamite', used to describe someone suffering from insanity, from the 1620s. So how did this hospital gain such a fearsome reputation, and how has it survived well beyond the hospital's adoption of new practices? Let's find out in this week's episode!

Greg Jenner is joined in ancient North Africa by classicist Professor Josephine Quinn and comedian Darren Harriott to learn about Hannibal of Carthage and his war with Rome. Located in modern-day Tunisia, Carthage was once a Mediterranean superpower that rivalled Rome. In 218 BCE, the Second Punic War began between the two powers, with the Carthaginian army led by a man named Hannibal Barca. Famously, Hannibal took his forces – including a contingent of war elephants – over the Alps and into Italy, finally marching on Rome itself. But eventually the Carthaginians were beaten back, and Hannibal ended his days in exile. In this episode we explore his epic life, from his childhood in Spain, to his tactical brilliance as a general, to his post-war career as a reformist politician. If you're a fan of ancient Rome, genius generals and new developments in classical history, you'll love our episode on Hannibal of Carthage.

For example, 42D, Demand upon reaching an "enemy border", KINGME (ah, that kind of enemy border!); 27D, What's wrong?, ERROR (cute!); and 58A, Blow it!, SMOKERING. The entire puzzle has the same feel, making this an absolutely splendid way to wrap up our crossword-solving week.

Otters are some of the most charming mammals you might encounter. Sometimes nicknamed the "water sausage" by the internet, otters are playful, intelligent, and capable of using tools. They also appear in popular culture, most notably in Tarka the Otter and The Wind in the Willows. Yet in reality, they're incredibly elusive. They might live in wetlands, along rivers, and at the coast, but seeing one isn't easy! They also enjoy woodland habitats, and even in towns, so they're a very interesting species. In this post, I'll be talking about the European otter. They're listed as near threatened on the global IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. They also raise their cubs in holts, or underground burrows, and they mostly eat fish, amphibians, crustaceans, and aquatic birds. I've seen one of the otters that lives at the Gosforth Park Nature Reserve, which was very exciting given how elusive they are! It's a woodland setting surrounding a lake, so I thought otters would make a good first stop on our Woodland Mammals tour. But given how good they are at hiding from humans, is there much folklore about them? Let's find out in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!
