Few cases have left a mark quite like the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. Two best friends, just 13 and 14 years old, went out for a simple afternoon walk on the trails in Delphi, Indiana and never returned. What followed was a mystery that gripped the nation for years, filled with haunting audio, chilling images, endless speculation, and five agonizing years before an arrest was finally made. But the arrest was only the beginning. Since then, the case has unraveled into a storm of alleged confessions, leaked evidence, shocking jail calls, courtroom drama, and a divided public questioning whether the right person is behind bars. Today, we are diving back in to untangle the chaos, examine the evidence from every angle, and confront the unsettling question that still lingers: has justice truly been served?

In the middle of the afternoon, while a little girl played quietly downstairs on her iPad, something unthinkable was unfolding upstairs. A frantic 911 call reported that an intruder had broken in and stabbed a mother in her own bedroom. By the time police arrived, one person was dead, another was fighting for her life, and the two adults in the home were left trying to explain what had just happened. At first, it sounded like a tragic home invasion in broad daylight. But as investigators dug deeper, whispers of a secret affair, hidden online messages, and a plan no one saw coming began to surface. Now, with this viral trial captivating the internet and explosive testimony coming out in court, the Virginia Au Pair Murders case is forcing everyone to ask: was this self defense, or something far more calculated?

In part 1 of this exclusive collaboration with Serial Killers & Murderous Minds, I help introduce a chilling murder-for-hire scheme orchestrated by Brenda Delgado, who targeted Kendra after she began dating her former boyfriend. What unfolded was a carefully planned crime driven by jealousy, obsession, and control.
After the story, I sit down with forensic psychologist Dr. Tristin Engels to analyze the psychological motivations behind the murder, breaking down what drives someone to outsource violence and how emotional fixation can escalate into something deadly.
Be sure to follow Serial Killers & Murderous Minds for Part 2 and more in-depth psychological analysis of true crime cases.

After Bryan Kohberger admitted to murdering University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, this case is once again sending shockwaves through the true crime world. Newly unsealed records are exposing chilling new details about the brutality of the killings, while fresh debate is erupting over possible motive, whether parts of the crime scene could have been staged, and what may have never come out without a trial. At the same time, the victims? families are now taking aggressive legal action that could reveal what warning signs may have existed before the murders ever happened?

At a busy shopping centre in Kent, a young woman climbed into her car after the gym, unaware she was being watched. Minutes later, 23-year-old Molly McLaren was dead, killed in an attack so brutal it stunned even seasoned investigators. Her ex-boyfriend had been watching, waiting, and when the moment came, everything changed in an instant. What led a young man to such a frenzied act? And how could warning signs go so tragically unnoticed?

In March 2018, 25-year-old Samantha Sperry disappeared in rural Kentucky after spending time with her boyfriend and his father. What began as an ordinary outing quickly spiraled into a baffling mystery. Conflicting stories about an argument, a night spent in the woods, and the last moment Samantha was seen walking in a different direction left investigators searching for answers. Her abandoned car, missing phone, and troubling behavior from those closest to her raised quiet red flags. Despite searches by law enforcement, Samantha was never found, and years later, her disappearance remains a haunting question mark. What really happened to Samantha Sperry?

When Wade Wilson was arrested in 2019 for the brutal murders of Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz, the case horrified the public; not just because of the violence, but because of Wade himself. His cold demeanor, disturbing confidence, and growing fanbase of admirers turned the case into something far darker than a typical true crime story.
In today?s episode, we revisit the full timeline of Wade Wilson?s crimes and reveal everything that?s come to light since our original deep dive. Wade has now been officially sentenced, hundreds of his jail calls have been released, new interrogation footage has surfaced, and the Paramount documentary Handsome Devil: Charming Killer has exposed chilling details about his behavior, his manipulation, and the system failures that allowed him to remain free until it was too late.

In a quiet Texas town, the Caffey family seemed like any other devout, close-knit, and faithful family. Yet behind the walls of their home, a storm was quietly brewing. One that would test the limits of trust, devotion, and the bonds between parent and child. What really happened inside that house, and how could a life so carefully ordered spiral so completely out of control?

In October 2008, John Altinger disappeared from his Edmonton condo, leaving friends confused by mysterious emails about a new love and a sudden trip to Costa Rica. But behind the digital trail and polite explanations, a darker story was unfolding. One tied to a charming, ambitious local filmmaker with a fascination for serial killers and a dangerous obsession with blending fiction and reality. As investigators peeled back the layers of his life, strange clues, disturbing writings, and a chilling sense of premeditation began to surface, hinting at a mind capable of more than anyone could imagine?

Eight-year-old Cherish Lily Perrywinkle went out one summer evening with her mother and younger sisters for a simple shopping trip. A chance encounter at a store with a stranger offering them money for clothes seemed harmless at first, but that encounter would set off a chain of events no one could have imagined. Cherish went missing after leaving the store with him, and hours later, her lifeless body was found in a nearby creek?

She was nearly full term, days away from giving birth, when Rebecca Park vanished without a trace. Weeks later, her body was discovered deep in Michigan?s Manistee National Forest and investigators revealed a detail so disturbing it changed the case entirely: Rebecca was no longer pregnant. In this episode, we follow the frantic search for a missing mother-to-be, the haunting discovery that followed, and the chilling mystery surrounding what happened to her baby. With arrests made, answers withheld, and an investigation still unfolding, you won?t want to miss this?

Inside a secluded desert community, new ?prophecies? are being whispered, children are disappearing, and a fractured religious empire is tightening its grip once again. Warren Jeffs may be behind bars, and Samuel Bateman has now been sentenced to decades in federal prison, yet their influence continues to ripple through the group they left behind.
In this episode, we break down everything you need to know about the FLDS, from the origins of Jeffs? power to Bateman?s rise and arrest, all the way through the latest revelations, missing-children cases, and the loyal inner circle still carrying out their commands.

Fourteen years after 32-year-old Rebecca Zahau was found hanging, naked, bound, and gagged behind the Spreckels Mansion in Coronado, the mystery surrounding her death remains as unsettling as the day it happened. Officials ruled it a suicide, just as they labeled the fall of her boyfriend?s 6-year-old son, an incident that occurred only two days earlier, an accident. But Rebecca?s family has never accepted that explanation. Their relentless search for answers has uncovered strange evidence, disputed timelines, explosive accusations, and claims of a botched investigation they say still hides the truth. As new voices step forward and old questions resurface, revisit one of California?s most haunting and controversial cases?

Payton Leutner never expected a sleepover to turn into a fight for her life, but in the quiet woods of Waukesha, two 12-year-old friends led her into a nightmare inspired by the myth of Slenderman. Stabbed 19 times and left for dead, Payton?s survival and the chilling motives behind the attack shook the nation and raised haunting questions about internet lore, childhood innocence, and the blurred lines between fantasy and reality. But recently one of her attackers, Morgan Geyser, briefly escaped from a Wisconsin group home where she had been placed after being conditionally released from a psychiatric institution?
