Domestic violence leaves a dark stain on the childhood of those who bear witness to its cruel and indiscriminate destruction. A New Jersey mother had nearly escaped her abusive past, and was celebrating Christmas with her two young children when all hell broke loose in December of 2016. Were it not for one 12-year old boy’s relentless commitment to his family’s safety - a murderer may well have walked free.

What first appears a tragic accident in a Walmart parking lot in Yulee, Florida - quickly evolves into coldblooded murder in front of shocked bystanders. Quick thinking witnesses follow the perpetrator all the way back to his house in a nearby subdivision. A chance occurrence between two men who haven’t seen each other in nearly ten years… ultimately turned deadly for both.

Construction workers discovered a sick Halloween prank near a work site in Chillicothe, Ohio on October 13th, 2015. A bloody mannequin had been strung up on a fence outside of a power substation plant. As they prepared to clean up the mess - they discovered it wasn’t a prank at all… but a grisly crime scene.
Billed as the most “extreme haunted house” ever created, participants must pass a physical and psychological pre-screening, sign a 40-page waiver, and surrender themselves entirely to a guaranteed near death experience for a $20,000 prize. But some claim there is more to the McKamey Manor than advertised. Many believe, it is a torture house in disguise, and tens of thousands of Americans want it shut down immediately. Listen to the owner and operator Russ McKamey when he tells you… that...

It’s the case of two mysterious fires, one family business, and a Thanksgiving the town of Colts Neck, New Jersey will never forget.

The nearly unidentifiable remains of an 18-year old woman are found burning behind a middle school in Mayfield, KY in 2000. The lead investigator fumbles the crime scene, ignoring vital clues and eventually focusing exclusively on one primary suspect. A judge ultimately dismissed the case, condemning the police work as problematic from the start. Justice seemed out of reach - until an amateur detective set up a Myspace tribute page and hit the streets herself to track down the real suspect.&n...

A 61-year old woman slips and falls in the shower, hitting her head on a stone bench in the family’s massive Syracuse, NY mansion. What at first appears a tragic accident, quickly shows all the signs of foul play. A devastated family has to choose - support their loved one accused of murder, or turn him in for “the scary man” he allegedly was behind closed doors.

Title: Addicted to Love
What would you do for love? Some would lie. Others would fight. Few would steal $200,000 and kill a family of three… but one man did. And he did it all for an internet webcam model that he had never met in real life. A stunning case of internet pornography addiction turns deadly when one man’s lustful desires evolved into misguided delusions of love.

After six combat tours and countless traumatic experiences, something was off. He found himself craving the thrill of the kill. And on one March evening in 2017, he returned to the killing fields.

A terrified 17-year old man phones 911 to report gunfire coming from inside the family home in Edmond, Oklahoma in the early morning hours of March 4th, 2019. The gunman standing next to him begging him not to call the police, is his brother. Two bodies, one pillow, and a gallon jug of holy water are all that remain as clues in Edmond’s first double-homicide in nearly 30 years.
I was mobilized this week for a large-scale hostage/riot simulation so the usual Felony Friday episode will be delayed until this weekend after I've had a chance to sleep a few hours. Sorry for the delay!

A flashlight, the new boyfriend, and just the right amount of jealousy are enough to drive one man over the edge - to murder. 37-year old Christie Solaro was viciously gunned down in the streets outside of her home on July 14th, 2019. Most thought they were hearing fireworks. But a few actually witnessed her tragic murder as it unfolded. This case gives an entirely new meaning to the phrase “protect and serve.”

A father reports his adopted daughter missing in the early morning hours of October 7th, 2017 in Richardson, Texas. But the story doesn’t add up. And before long, local police and the FBI suspect there is more to Sherin Susan Mathews’ disappearance than her father is letting on. If not for a diligent spider spinning a web in front of a motion activated security camera, she might well have disappeared forever.

Happy Thursday Everyone! Tonight I'm releasing "The Spiderweb" early. It's the next full Invisible Choir Episode to release on the free feed.
