Crime Salad

After reading, or listening, to enough true crime, you might find the cases become somewhat formulaic. A person goes missing, a search party is sent out, a body is found, an arrest is ma de. Our case this week, though, is anything but that. Instead of inching closer to a solution, each new update only seems to generate more controversy and mystery around the Murdaugh Family.

When Tyler posted on Facebook that he was having a party, over a 100 people came to his parents' house to drink, do drugs, and party. What they didn't know was that only hours before, Tyler had brutally murdered his parents.

In 1989, there were about 20,000 murders, but only 12,000 were solved. That's only a 60% success rate, and that number hasn't changed much in the last thirty years. You would think that with technology like DNA analysis and surveillance in more places, we'd be doing better. And of those unsolved crimes, few are solved years later. One of those 8000 unsolved cases in 1989 was the disappearance of Jacob Wetterling. Unlike so many others, this cold case did get a resolution, but it wasn't until 27 years later. As a warning, this case references sexual abuse of children. Sponsors: One Farm  Visit https://onefarm.com/coupon/crimesalad/ to find the plant-based natural remedy that fits your life.

Colleen was a young, well-loved math teacher in a small Massachusetts town, and her killer was a quiet, but seemingly kind, freshman soccer player. With no record, no prior offences, what made this young boy suddenly snap? The death of any person at the hands of a killer is always terrifying, but today's case, which grapples with understanding how a 14 year old could suddenly murder his math teacher, is truly frightening.

When it comes to true crime, one of the biggest names that people think of is BTK--a serial killer whose reign of terror over Wichita, Kansas lasted more than 15 years. But while BTK might be the most famous killer, for the people of Wichita, Reginald and Jonathan Carr's week long crime and killing spree caused citizens to fear for their lives both while out and inside their own homes. In the 20 years since the Carr Brothers committed what is now dubbed the Wichita Horror or Wichita Massacre, they have filed multiple appeals, keeping their crimes in headlines in town and preventing closure for the families who lost so much. Sponsors: Dame Products Go to dameproducts.com/CRIMESALAD today for 15% off sitewide.

A few months back, we covered the 2004 case of Lisa Marie Montgomery--a woman who murdered Bobbie Jo Stinnet as she brutally cut open Bobbie Jo's abdomen to take her unborn baby. This case made national headlines, and in 2021, Lisa Marie became the first woman to be executed by the federal government in decades. Our case this week follows a similar trajectory. A 22 year old pregnant woman was lured into a neighbor's apartment, only to be attacked, killed, and had her unborn baby stolen from her womb.
