Episode 93; Susan Schwarz and Survivor Curtescine Foster Lloyd

Esplicito
Hello, Crime Family, and welcome back to Episode 93 at the True Crime BnB. This week we have a little more cussing than usual, because it comes up in quotes that really contribute to the telling of the stories. Yes! I said STORIES. I'm harking back to the Bad Guy / Good Guy days, even in a solo episode, because if i can have an upper story to close the episode, then I will do that. First up is the senseless murder of 24 year old Susan Schwarz, who was killed in Snohomish County, Washington in 1979. Because of witness intimidation by the perpetrator, it was 32 years before her killer was brought to justice, but in the end, we applaud the witness for speaking up. Susan was a victim of revenge because she tried to help someone else who was also a victim. And she deserves to be remembered for the good, kind, compassionate young woman she was. I'm closing today with the upper story of Curtescine Foster Lloyd, a 51 year old woman in Edwards, Mississippi who was accosted in her bedroom by a naked man with evil intentions. But Curtescine saw her opportunity and took it. And that would-be rapist regretted the day he ever made his way into her house. Curtescine's testimony had the jury rolling with laughter, so don't miss this episode! (this is where almost all of the cussing comes in) So thank you for stopping by, If you've missed Puss in the bloopers, she made her comeback today, so don't forget to hang around after the Outro to hear what she had to say. See you back in two weeks, take care, and do something nice for yourself today!

Episode 92; Three Teenaged Heroes--Canaan Bower_Jayden Perkins_Josslyn Millan

Hey, Crime Family, thanks for bearing with me as I am dropping Episode 92 two days late. The previous week just didn't allow me to finish it for Friday, so I am doing my first-ever Sunday release so I can stay on track for every other week. So, that business out of the way, this episode is a bit of a throwback to the old bad-guy / good-guy format that I still use in collaborations, but I'm both bad and good guy today. Today I bring you three teenagers who showed such strength, bravery, and presence of mind that they prevented the injury or death of people they cared about, or in one case, of complete strangers. Fair warning, these are hard cases to hear and definitely hard cases to narrate, so if you hear the emotion in my voice, you have no idea how many times i had to reread some of these paragraphs until I could get them out without a croak. Canaan Bower of Las Cruces, New Mexico, was 16 years old when he prevented a kidnapping, or worse, of a family at a gas station. Canaan was a champion heavyweight wrestler, but also an exemplary leader and human being, and his story is important. Jayden Perkins, of Chicago, Illinois, was 11 years old when he saved his pregnant mom and unborn sibling from almost certain death when his mom's distant ex burst into their home with a knife. Jayden was that child whom everyone adored, who brought light and sunshine into the day of every person he met. His story must be told, so that he will never be forgotten. Josslyn Millan, of Midvale, Utah, was 13 years old when her world went in an instant from a safe, family environment to absolute terror in a carjacking. Her first thoughts were not for herself, but for her infant sister, and she instinctively did all of the most important things to take control of the situation and get herself and her baby sister Ivey home safely. As per our regular format, the last story will leave you on a positive note to go out into the world feeling uplifted. As always, I'm grateful that you have stopped by here at the True Crime BnB! Have a seat, grab a frosty beverage off the bar, and let's talk about some outstanding young people that you'll never forget!

Episode 91; Joy Gayle Morningstar Stewart and the Ohio Death Penalty

Hello, I'm glad you've chosen to pop in at the True Crime BnB for Episode 91! This week's episode is pretty rough and covers a senseless crime against a West Alexandria, Ohio woman who, in February, 1989, was weeks away from giving birth to a son she had already named. Joy Gayle Morningstar Stewart was one of those rare people who brightened the day of anyone lucky enough to encounter her. When she was brutally murdered for the most disgusting of reasons, her family and loved ones suffered tremendously thereafter. And when the execution of her killer didn't go quite as intended, it set in motion a whole series of redirections that are still happening today. Thank you for stopping by, and I hope to see you back next time for Episode 92. ______ Look for episodes from True Crime BnB about every other week, still on Fridays. . . .If you enjoy our show, please share our episodes on social media--that's the greatest way to help us find new listeners.

Episode 90; Collaboration with Vintage Homicide (David 'Stringbean' Akeman and Survivor Sherri Boone)

Hello, Crime Family, and welcome back to Episode 90 here at the True Crime BnB! This week I have special guest Miss Ruby Wilde, co-hostess of the Vintage Homicide Podcast, bringing the sad and senseless murder of Grand Ol' Opry and HeeHaw regular David "Stringbean" Akeman and his wife Estelle. But even if you already know what happened to Stringbean and Estelle, Miss Ruby has widened this story to a surprisingly large number of other related, but also unrelated, murders! This case had a great impact on the greater country music scene in the 1970's. Beth follows behind with the survival story of Sherri Boone, a brave and gutsy woman in Massachusetts. She lived through a terrible attack and when the law failed her, she made it her mission to bring attention to, and bring about revisions to, the very outdated penal code in Massachusetts. Once you've listened, please go follow Miss Ruby Wilde along with her cohostess Miss Mei Day at Vintage Homicide Podcast at Instagram: @vintagehomicide and Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/vintagehomicide You can find their LinkTree here: https://linktr.ee/vintagehomicidepodcast I hope you're taking care of yourselves, and that you are being kind to others. Just because some people are murderers does NOT mean you should be one, too.

Episode 89; Just One B; Harriet Ann Eckman Hicks

Thank you for joining me to back at the True Crime BnB for Episode 89. Today I am taking you to Mexico City in 1958, and we are going to remember the murder of Harriet Ann Eckman Hicks. But there is a lot to remember about Harriet besides the way she was taken from her family. Harriet was a woman who made her own life and lived outside the bounds of what society expected of her in the 1950's. She was a creative, an entrepreneur, and a woman ahead of her time. She built a life that she loved, and that included solo travel as she saw fit. Unfortunately, on one of her trips to Mexico City, Mexico, she came into contact with a predator who used Mexico City as his hunting grounds and attacked or killed numerous other women. When you see furniture or decorations that are woven from pandanus leaves, you can thank Harriet for being one of the very first who popularized the style; when you see themed Christmas trees, she was one of the first to do that, too. Harriet Ann Eckman Hicks was an extraordinary person, a woman who didn't sit and wait for permission to make her life what she wanted it to be. And Harriet deserves to be remembered. _______ Look for episodes from True Crime BnB about every other week, still on Fridays. . . .If you enjoy our show, please share our episodes on social media--that's the greatest way to help us find new listeners.

Episode 88; Just One B; Frank and Annette Carlson

Thank you for joining me this week for Episode 88, as we head to San Francisco, California and the horrific case of Frank and Annette Carlson. This crime took place in 1974 and was so excessively violent that the perpetrator tried to pass himself off as one of the many serial killers that were in that area in the early 1970's. Annette survived but has spent the last 50 years haunted by the events of that night. ...And it's been made worse by the fact that her attacker, the killer of her wonderful husband, benefitted from the 1976 US Supreme Court decision that capital punishment laws as they existed at that time were unconstitutional. Please go to JusticeforFrank.org to help the family keep this sadistic sexual psychopath in prison and stop making the family circle the wagons every three years as they have since 1980! Let's get started, because this is a big one. _______ Mentions in this episode: Torture Podcast, referring you to the excellent two-episode series on the Synanon Foundation, you can find those in the October and November, 2022 episodes produced by Kevin Young and Dan Hourigan. @torturepod on Instagram.

Episode 87; Just One B; Survivor David Alexander

Howdy and welcome back to the True Crime BnB! Thanks for joining me for this Just One B, Episode 87! Today's case is similar to some of the cases we have covered in the past, but with one unusual factor. David Alexander was a nice Irishman living in Ontario, Canada. He was a good dad, a good husband, and carried the secret that his wife abused him. David still loved his wife Christine, but had come to the conclusion that he couldn't 'fix' her. She, like countless other abusers, decided that if he wouldn't stay with her, she couldn't let him live. This episode talks about the not-uncommon but rarely reported crime of husband abuse, and how Canada's Divorce Act makes it possible for abusers to sue their victims for spousal support!! Crazy!! Thank you for stopping by! Have a seat, Bailey and Puss will be by with the wine carafe in just a few minutes. :-) Cheers, crime family! _____________ Look for episodes from True Crime BnB about every other week, still on Fridays. . . .If you enjoy our show, please share our episodes on social media--that's the greatest way to help us find new listeners.

Episode 86; Collaboration with Social Detective Podcast; the Fager Family Murders and Survivor Jalen Morris

Esplicito
Hi guys, I'm sorry to have been MIA for the last month, but I finally made it back to this episode that we recorded at the beginning of December! But let me tell you, Episode 86 is worth the wait! This collaboration with MaryAnne from Social Detective is intense, and also longer than my normal episodes, see time stamps below. MaryAnne brings us the infuriating (no joke--this will make you angry) case of the Fager Family murders in Wichita, Kansas. Mary Fager's husband Phillip and both of her daughters, Kelli and Sherri, were senselessly murdered between Christmas and New Year's eve in 1987. All the evidence pointed to one person. This person was caught, arrested, and brought to trial. But if you assume that means there was justice....well, you'd better hear the whole story. Beth follows with a difficult survivor story of a young Georgia mother who was nearly murdered by her ex-boyfriend's attempted murder/suicide. But Jalen Morris, although she suffered immensely from what her attacker did in his final acts, rose above what most people could accomplish. Gravely injured, she shielded her six-week-old baby from gunfire, and managed to save herself and her infant boy from the baby's deranged father. The strong and beautiful Morris family is doing everything they can to be independent, but horrible crimes like this one have far-reaching effects on a family's financial structure. Please, if you can spare ANY amount , please join me in donating to the Morris Family's GoFundMe, here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/34qqpkf13c And then please go follow the Social Detective Podcast. Here is MaryAnne's LinkTree: go here for other links: https://linktr.ee/crimecakes instagram: https://www.instagram.com/social_detective_podcast/ Thank you for waiting for me. I'm back and ready to find more overlooked victims and awe-inspiring survivors to honor. We are here for them, and no one else.

Episode 84; Just One B; Heroine Rosemary Shayotovich Swiger Starry

Hello, welcome to Just One B week at the BnB! Today for Episode 84, I'm bringing you a story of a heroic mother who saved the lives of her large family when their home was consumed in a Christmas fire 62 years ago. Rosemary Shayotovich Swiger Starry thought of nothing except the safety of her bedridden husband and her eight children when their Christmas tree caused a house fire in the early morning hours of December 26, 1961. Rosemary's story made headlines across the country that year, but her selfless bravery deserves to be remembered today. Also, please take this as a reminder to check your decorations and electrical devices to prevent a house fire--and make sure your family never find themselves in this terrifying situation. Only a few minutes of your time could save someone's life. We've left a chilled bottle of wine in the fridge for you, and I've reserved the biggest room here at the BnB so you can get some quiet and have a little nap. Fat chance with Puss wandering the halls.... Take good care of yourselves--I'll be back in two weeks with a guest that you've met before and everyone loved!

Episode 83; Just One B; Sharon Galligan

Esplicito
Welcome to the November Just One B, so this week, there is no good guy. I know, rough, but this is just how it has to be sometimes at the BnB. My case this week was a senseless, tragic, and random act of violence towards a young woman who was going to do great things in her life. Sharon Galligan was only weeks away from embarking on her semester abroad when she was a junior at the University of Massachusetts. Her life was extinguished in a mall parking lot just before she headed home for the Christmas break in 1989. Sharon was the casualty of an arbitrary decision by a man with a victim complex, and since there was no connection between them, it took years before police found out who had committed this disgusting crime against a lovely young person with her whole life ahead of her. Please think about Sharon and her family as you prepare for whatever holidays you celebrate. This episode comes out the day after Thanksgiving, so I hope you're all stuffed to the gills and feeling grateful about the good things in your lives. Although every one of us has our personal struggles, as Jason Isbell says, "you should know, compared to people on a global scale, our kind has had it relatively easy." Love you, be happy, be kind. Try to do something good with your blessings.
