She Sleuths: A True Crime Podcast

Hey guys! We'll be back next week, but in the meantime enjoy this interview Kristin did with a recent juror for a double homicide trial. 

In this week's episode, we cover crimes committed by husbands. First up this week Amy talks about the marriage and the murder involving Rod Covlin, a deadbeat, and Shele Danishefsky, a millionaire. They got married within weeks of meeting each other and there was very little marital bliss happening in their home. Rod was a money hungry womanizer, and Shele was a hard working mother, but she could only put up with so much, so when she decided it was time to separate and file for divorce, Rod was having none of it. Her death was quickly ruled an accident, but a decade later he found himself in the courts trying to prove his innocence. Listen in this week, because it gets all kinds of weird. Kristin's case is about a modern day blue beard named Lowell "Ed" Amos who murdered 3 wives and his own mother. Did he face the consequences? Find out in today's ep!

In this intense episode, Kristin & Amy talk about true crime cases involving children who murder. First up, Kristin talks about the case of Canada's most notorious child serial killer- Peter Woodcock. This kid murdered children and eventually adults, even while incarcerated! Then Amy talks about the case of Mary Bell, an 11 year old budding serial killer who murdered two small boys in the town of Newcastle on Tyne, England. She was born into a world that did not want her and prostituted to her mother’s clients for most of her childhood. Mary acted out aggressively and snuffed out two lives in the process. She would go off to detention centers and women’s prison and was in a way reformed. Hear her story and the stories of the two boys she murdered, Martin Brown and Brian Howe, on episode 13 on the She Sleuths – A True Crime Podcast!

In today's episode, we explore women who kill, so hold onto your stretchy pants. Things are about to get crazy!

First up is Kristin's case: In the early 1900’s, Louisiana and Texas was plagued by ax murders that swept across the states. Initially, a man named Raymond Barnabet was arrested for the murders, but while he was in jail more murders occurred. Police soon were hot on the trail of his 19-year-old daughter Clementine Barnabet. Was she working alone? Did she have accomplices? Clementine was sentenced to life in prison for the murders, but was eventually let go. The rest of her life was a mystery and so many questions still remain regarding the ax murders that wiped out entire African American families in the south at that time. 

This week Amy dives into the case involving, then, 18 year old, Christa Pike, who was furious over the possibility that someone else might be interested in her boyfriend. Jealous and feeling mean, Christa invites this unsuspecting girl to join them to smoke some pot and make amends, except that was the last thing Christa was wanting to do. Instead she beat this helpless woman, Colleen Slemmer, to death, leaving her unrecognizable. 

In this episode, we hop across the pond and explore some UK true crime that you may never heard of, so buckle up buttercup! We're about to experience some turbulence, baby!

Kristin explores what happens when someone you should trust the most, a doctor, goes rogue. She explores the case of a doctor turned serial killer named Harold Shipman. Shipman killed a whopping 215 patients. You'll find out how in this insane episode.

Amy talks about one of the UK's most dangerous murderers and serial killers, the Bus Stop Stalker, Levi Bellfield. This blonde hating sorry excuse of a human being has attacked countless women on the streets of London and surrounding neighborhoods with hammers, cars, and other objects. Join us this week as we head across the pond to talk true crime in the UK!

In this insane episode, Kristin & Amy discuss the cases of two cults with abusive leaders (and abusive doesn't even begin to describe their behavior).

First up, Amy explores the hell that was Tony Alamo, his wife Susan Alamo, and their apocalyptic cult, The Alamo Christian Foundation. What could possibly go wrong when a charismatic leader and their money hungry spouse start to prey on young hippies? Well, this episode has those answers!

Kristin breaks down the case of Roch Theriault and the Ant Hill Kids cult. This cult was led by Roch Theriault who was charismatic and intelligent, but also absolutely insane and abusive towards his followers. He told his followers that the apocalypse would happen soon, which prompted them to run off into the woods, so they could be saved. While out in the wilderness, Roch unleashed his insane behavior, which cost several followers their lives, including his own child. Roch was finally arrested and sentenced to life in prison. While in prison, he was shanked by a fellow inmate and died, and, after listening to our episode, you'll see how well deserved this ending for him.

In this episode, Kristin admits to being a fish murderer. Amy's hubby is finally back in town! And the girls discuss the crazy shit that happens in the state of Florida.  Amy's case talks about the Doogie Howser wannabe, Malachi 'Doctor Love' Robinson who from the age of 17 had been interested in the medical field and treating patients even without the proper licensing or education, but thanks to the internet and $29.99 later, he was able to fool and scam many people all up until he treated his last patient in 2017.  Kristin's case brings her down to sunny Miami, Florida, which was the cocaine capital in the 70's and 80's, and there was no one more infamous for trafficking that white powdery substance than Griselda Blanco. Griselda was an entrepreneur, but also a cold blooded murderer, and it's hypothesized she killed at least 40, if not over 200.
