This week, in Terra Linda, California, a young lady has a very strange home life, with a seemingly mentally ill mother, who the young woman calls "Hitler". She delves into a world where she calls herself a High Priestess, and a witch, while consuming massive amounts of drugs, and convincing one young man that her eyes have powers. The brutality this all leads to can be seen coming, but it doesn't make it any less mind boggling. And the outcome may be the craziest thing of all!! Along the way, we find out that James Hetfield probably avoids the locals, that someone's eyes shouldn't be the thing that has power over you, and that you shouldn't need 4 different murder weapons!!

Along the way, we find out that we don't really want shrimp from Wyoming, that being drinking buddies with the other guy who is seeing your girlfriend might lead to uncomfortable situations, and that if someone tells you they're going to kill you, maybe you should believe them.

This week, in Summerfield, North Carolina, a very unlikely couple, decide to take on their families, and everyone else they feel has wronged them, with horrifying, murderous results. Why are they an unlikely couple? Because they're first cousins, from a very prominent high society family. They turn out to have more in common than blood, because they're both liars, and maybe more than a little insane. Together, they are responsible for 9 deaths!! Along the way, we find out that we have no idea what ladderball is, that it's never a good idea to hook up with your first cousin, and that Vitamin C may not cure polio!!

#406 - Not Even A Little Sorry - Flagstaff, Arizona
This week, in Flagstaff, Arizona, a move across the country doesn't quite cure the relationship between a young couple, instead causing an attempted break up. This results in terribly brutal murder, complete with a horrifying final deed. Surprisingly, the not remorseful killer not only wants the death penalty, he demands it! Will the court give him what he wants, after they read some of his crazy writings? It's a very cruel murder, committed by a very strange person!! Along the way, we find out that sometimes it snows when you're high in the mountains, that you shouldn't listen to any imaginary interplanetary gods that tell you to kill, and that there really is no limit for how low a human being can sink!
