Real Life Real Crime True Crime Time For April 21, 2026 | Father Kills 8 Children Update, Lab Poisoning Plot, Cemetery Bone Theft
In this episode of True Crime Time For, Woody and Cyndi Overton deliver a heavy and emotional lineup of cases — from heartbreaking domestic violence to bizarre and disturbing criminal behavior.
The episode opens with a chilling cold case tied to the Freeway Phantom murders, where evidence was reportedly lost by federal authorities — leaving victims and families without justice decades later.
Woody then provides a major update on the Shreveport, Louisiana mass shooting, where the suspect has now been identified as Shamar Elkins. Authorities confirm that eight children were killed — including several of his own — in what is now being classified as a family annihilation case. New details reveal the victims’ identities, the timeline of events, and the suspect’s domestic situation leading up to the murders.
Additional cases include:
- A Wisconsin lab worker who poisoned a coworker after being passed over for a promotion, using chemicals taken directly from a research facility
- A disturbing Pennsylvania case where a man stole over 100 sets of human remains from a historic cemetery and stored them in his home
- A California fire captain sentenced to life without parole for executing his girlfriend and her young son to eliminate witnesses
- A bizarre airline incident where 10 unruly passengers were arrested before takeoff after refusing to comply with flight crew instructions
- A horrific domestic violence case in North Carolina where a man set his girlfriend on fire, leaving her with burns over most of her body
- A Kansas mother charged with murdering her toddler, with investigators now re-examining the suspicious death of another child in her care
- A major drug bust in Texas involving nearly 500 pounds of liquid methamphetamine, discovered after a fatal crash
Throughout the episode, Woody and Cyndi reinforce a central message:
evil takes many forms — from calculated violence to neglect and greed — but awareness, accountability, and speaking up are critical to justice.
