As someone who has been personally effected by homicide, I approach every True Crime case I cover with the goal of balancing facts with empathy—giving victims a voice while exploring the larger cultural and societal implications of the cases. I want you to leave my episodes not only knowing that the people who I talk about are real.. what happened to them is real but also acknowledging that they are much more than just their deaths. Each audio file from this podcast is taken from my videos on YouTube. If you want to see me in action, you can search "Bratterstein" there.

Cheerleader Killed a Week Before Graduation: Michelle DeMarzo and Neil Constanzo

As always, thank you for hanging out and remembering Michelle Camile DeMarzo with me today.

In June 1978, 18-year-old Michelle DeMarzo was found brutally murdered at a conservation center in Cranford, New Jersey, nude, bludgeoned, and surrounded by signs of extreme violence.

Her former boyfriend, Neil Costanzo, who had known Michelle for years and from whom she had broken up a while earlier, was arrested and charged with her murder.

The killing rocked the community, turning a suburban high school graduation season into a scene of horror and fear. To this day, the case stands as a chilling reminder of how violence can shatter lives and the innocence of youth.
