Stephanie Soo
Rotten but still a little sweet! Rotten Mango is a true crime + all things spooky podcast. We love doing deep dives into the darkest crimes and we tend to not leave out any details - which can get a little rotten at times. If you want deep dives in the psychology of killers, no holding back storytelling of crimes, and stories of lesser known criminals from around the world this is the place for you.

#131: Pretty Little Liars Killers (Case of Skylar Neese)
The three girls never went anywhere without each other. They were besties.Well, except Biology Class - the one class that only Rachel and Sheila were in.Maybe that’s why during biology Sheila would ask a lot of strange questions.“Excuse me, what kind of acid would you dispose of a body in?”“I don’t know… why?”“Oh, we’re trying to figure out what to do with Skylar.”Rachel would be off on the side giggling. That’s how the two girls started to plot their best friend’s murder in biology class.Full Source Notes: rottenmangopodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
