Episode 14: The Grim Sleeper Part 1

The Grim Sleeper was 1 out of many serial killers who preyed on Los Angeles. What's different about this case is the skin color of the victims. Black women in South Central LA were targeted and found murdered in alleys and amongst trash and many believe that LAPD stood by and allowed it to happen. Join me in part 1 while I take ya'll thru the timeline of the victims that were found up until 2002. Part 2 is where we get into the final victims and the investigations that took place resulting in the Grim Sleeper being caught after his hiatus.

Lisa Rene was 16 years old when she was abducted and buried alive; all because of a botched drug deal. I broke this case down so we can understand that all parties were equally culpable. Lisa’s murderers walk among us today and I need to know, at what point do we forgive, at what point can someone be redeemed. Thank y’all for tuning in.

Episode 11: What happened to Kayla Barfield?

Kayla Barfield was held hostage and used for ransom after providing support to a woman claiming to be in a domestic situation. Her battered body was found in the backseat of her own vehicle in another city and her captors escaped not once but twice due to poor police response. Detective Adelemeyer and Lt. Petz from the D.C Homicide unit have failed to return phone calls, bring in witnesses, and provide updates despite the evidence available to them. Currently Kayla’s case is not seen as a homicide, but an accidental death due to the authorities claiming she said she fell down a flight of stairs.
