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.pdf https://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-slayings https://people.com/serial-killer-gainesville-ripper-danny-rolling-exclusive-11763591 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Rolling https://www.tampabay.com/archive/1993/02/20/5-dead-may-have-been-stalked/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTvIh8rC4ak See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we dive into the true story behind Left for Dead: The Ashley Reeves Story, the Lifetime movie that shocked viewers. We recount the 2006 case of 17-year-old Ashley Reeves, a high school student from Illinois who was lured to a remote park by her former teacher and brutally attacked—strangled and left paralyzed, alone in the woods for over 30 hours. Miraculously, she survived. We’ll examine how the film portrayed the events, explore key differences between the dramatization and reality, and discuss the psychological aftermath of the attack. This crime highlights the dangers of authority abuse and the strength it takes to reclaim one’s life after trauma.

The 1983 made-for-TV movie Adam tells the true story of six-year-old Adam Walsh, who was abducted from a Sears department store in Hollywood, Fl in July 1981. The movie follows his parents, John and Reve Walsh, as they struggle with the devastating loss of their son and the failures of the system meant to protect children. The real-life case behind the movie had a lasting impact. John Walsh became a well-known victims' rights advocate and later hosted America's Most Wanted. The Walsh family helped establish the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. Adam remains one of the most influential true crime TV movies in American history, remembered not just for its emotional storytelling but for the real change it helped create.

Send us a text Laurie Show was a 16-year-old high school student from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, whose life was tragically cut short in 1991 in a brutal act of jealousy and revenge. She had briefly dated an older teen, Lawrence  Yunkin, who was in a volatile relationship with another teenager, Michelle Lambert. Lambert became increasingly obsessed with harassing and threatening Laurie. On the morning of December 20, 1991, Laurie was attacked and murdered in her home by Lambert and her friend Tabitha Buck.  The horrifying case gained national attention and led to lengthy trials, appeals, and changes in Pennsylvania’s anti-stalking laws, largely due to the advocacy of Laurie’s mother, Hazel Show. In 2000, Lifetime adapted the story into a made-for-TV film titled The Stalking of Laurie Show, dramatizing the events leading up to Laurie’s death.  Sources: Overkill by Lyn Riddle  The Stalking of Laurie Show  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCwRY0qffDI https://lancastercountypa.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=1008&ARC=1439 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItVOg2lzq4E https://co.lancaster.pa.us/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=1008&ARC=1438 https://www.pennlive.com/news/2019/12/28-years-after-killing-laurie-show-teen-murderer-tabitha-buck-is-bound-for-freedom.html https://www.wgal.com/article/wgal-becomes-courtroom-for-appeal-by-convicted-killer-lisa-michelle-lambert/60178594 *This podcast is independently produced using publicly available information and personal research.

Send us a text In 1991, Wanda Holloway, a mother from Channelview, Texas, became the center of national outrage when she attempted to hire a hitman to kill the mother of her daughter’s cheerleading rival. Holloway believed that eliminating the rival’s mother would emotionally destabilize the girl freeing up a coveted spot on the high school cheerleading squad for her own daughter. Her plan unraveled when the man she approached for help, her ex-brother-in-law, went to the police and recorded her murder-for-hire plot. Holloway was arrested, tried, and convicted, sparking headlines across the country and prompting conversations about obsession, parenting pressure, and small-town competition taken to extremes. HBO turned the bizarre true story into a dark comedy in 1993 with The Positively True Adventures of the Alleged Texas Cheerleader-Murdering Mom. The film starred Holly Hunter as Wanda Holloway, delivering a chilling performance that earned her an Emmy. The movie uses biting humor and courtroom dramatization to highlight the absurdity of the crime, the media circus surrounding it, and the warped values that can emerge in the pursuit of perfection and popularity.

Send us a text In 1995, a tragic crime in Grand Prairie, Texas, shocked the nation and became known as the Texas Cadet Murder. The case involved two promising high school students—Diane Zamora and David Graham—both of whom were aspiring military cadets with bright futures ahead of them. Their intense romantic relationship took a dark turn when jealousy and obsession spiraled into violence. According to court records, Graham confessed to Zamora that he had a brief encounter with fellow student Adrianne Jones, a 16-year-old track star. Enraged by the revelation, Zamora reportedly demanded he "make things right." What followed was a carefully planned and ultimately fatal ambush. In December 1995, Adrianne was lured out under false pretenses and murdered. The shocking nature of the crime and the young age of those involved drew widespread media attention. In 1997, the story was adapted into a made-for-TV movie titled Love's Deadly Triangle: The Texas Cadet Murder, starring Holly Marie Combs and David Lipper. The film dramatizes the events leading up to the murder and offered viewers a glimpse into the psychological unraveling that led to such a tragic outcome. More than two decades later, the case remains a haunting example of how unchecked emotions and toxic loyalty can have irreversible consequences.

But as their relationship unfolded, so did a pattern of control, jealousy, and escalating red flags that too many people overlooked. Her tragic story would later inspire the 1996 TV movie No One Would Tell, serving as a powerful reminder of the dangers of ignoring abuse—even when it’s happening in plain sight.

Kimberly’s case would unravel a chilling chain of events involving foster care failures, jealousy, betrayal, and a horrifying method of body disposal few could imagine. Investigators would trace a single link of chain to a hardware store… uncover a disturbing love triangle… and find themselves staring at a grainy surveillance video that would blow the case open. This is the haunting true story of Kimberly Holton — the girl they tried to silence, and the case that refused to sink.

Send us a textLaurie Kellogg was just 16 when she met a man more than twice her age — a man who would later become her husband. To some, it looked like a scandal from the start. But no one could have predicted how it would end: with a gunshot in the middle of the night... and a group of teenagers caught in the middle of a murder plot. Was Laurie Kellogg a calculating instigator? Or was she a teenager trapped in a life she couldn’t escape? What really happened behind closed doors — and who should be held responsible?  Sources:  https://www.pennlive.com/crime/2021/06/the-injuries-to-the-brain-were-devastating-the-murder-of-bruce-kellogg-30-years-ago.html https://andyman122.tripod.com/helpfreelauriekellogg/id8.html https://law.justia.com/cases/pennsylvania/superior-court/1994/435-pa-super-581-2.html https://www.syracuse.com/news/2017/08/exclusive_interview_man_who_pulled_trigger_as_teen_in_laurie_kellogg_case_speaks.html https://www.newyorkupstate.com/news/2017/03/laurie_kelloggs_release_trial_was_shocking_small-town_tale_of_sex_betrayal_viole.html https://www.newyorkupstate.com/finger-lakes/2016/06/throwback_thursday_laurie_kellogg_arrested_for_conspiring_to_kill_husband.html *This podcast is independently produced using publicly available information and personal research.

Send us a text Melissa Turner, a former cosplay model from Riverview, Florida, called 911 on October 18, 2019, reporting that she had found her fiancé, Matthew Trussler, unresponsive and covered in blood on their patio. Initially telling police she didn’t know what had happened, Turner later stated that Matthew had attacked her during a drunken altercation and that she acted in self-defense. However, investigators uncovered home surveillance footage capturing the sounds of a heated argument hours earlier, during which a woman's voice—believed to be Turner’s—could be heard shouting angrily. Authorities also noted delays in seeking help and inconsistencies in her statements.  Sources:  https://www.peacocktv.com/watch/playback/vod/GMO_00000000488441_01/29b41bb9-fcf3-3b72-b8f4-4b8471724fc7?paused=true https://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/matthew-trussler-murder/ https://www.cbsnews.com/video/surveillance-footage-gives-clues-to-what-happened-when-matthew-trussler-was-killed-prosecutors-say/ *This podcast is independently produced using publicly available information and personal research.

Send us a text In this episode, we tell the heartbreaking story of Peggy Carothers, a 15-year-old girl from Hammond, Indiana, who vanished without a trace in May of 1997. Raised in a tight-knit family of six children, Peggy was bright, funny, and full of life. Her best friend remembers the two of them dancing and singing Alanis Morissette songs, dreaming about the future like any teenage girls would. But everything changed on a sunny school day when Peggy didn’t come home. Rumors swirled. Friends revealed a secret Peggy had been hiding—one that pointed to a boy she thought she loved. Weeks passed with no answers… until two teens stumbled on a shallow grave in a wooded area known as Higgins Woods. What followed was a chilling investigation built entirely on whispers, secrets, and circumstantial evidence—leading to a shocking arrest, and a trial that exposed a carefully hidden truth. In the end, Peggy’s story is one of innocence lost, justice fought for, and a small town forever changed.
