Cousins on Crime

April 3, 1985 rocked the upper-middle class community of Boonsboro, Virginia when a couple was found brutally butchered in their home. Investigators were at a standstill until a rental car agreement broke the case wide open. What followed, is a twisted tale of two fugitives living under false identities, committing check fraud, and ultimately turning on each other.Instagram: @CousinsonCrimePodcastEmail: [email protected] Music by AleXZavesaCheck out our merch store! https://cousinsoncrime-shop.fourthwall.com/?Sources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTVw5j9bOv0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QzO-wR2K4s&t=144sNetflix: Til Murder Do Us Parthttps://inews.co.uk/culture/television/jens-soering-till-murder-do-us-part-who-killed-derek-nancy-haysom-2726217?srsltid=AfmBOoqWTDDaNKFqs7z3g89YkQHsCWka-s1zOUDNTKDxlTPj-sVjBjENhttps://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1987-08-24-mn-2062-story.htmlhttps://thesoeringcase.substack.com/p/testimony-of-ricky-gardner-june-8https://scholar.lib.vt.edu/VA-news/ROA-Times/issues/1995/rt9504/950405/04050090.htmhttps://www.29news.com/2026/02/25/decades-after-conviction-jens-soering-seeks-vacate-murder-verdict/https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/11/09/blood-ties#:~:text=Gardner%20was%20feeling%20pressured%20for,visit%20Lynchburg%20on%20October%2015th.

Alyssa Burkett thought she'd found love in Andrew Beard, but once their daughter was born, it became clear that their relationship would not last. Each of them moved on to someone new, continuing to fight every step of the way to gain sole custody of their little girl. The feud grew so toxic that eventually neither one of them would get the child, because one would end up dead and one would end up in prison.Instagram: @CousinsonCrimePodcastEmail: [email protected] Music by AleXZavesaJoin our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/CousinsOnCrimeCheck out our merch store! https://cousinsoncrime-shop.fourthwall.com/?Sources:https://youtu.be/SVmcBhsMrPo?si=LT9UaZ3WwkLo4Niqhttps://youtu.be/cgB3cOhbN_8?si=zP6yfJ060ToWwfWahttps://www.resthavenfuneral.com/obituaries/Alyssa-Ann-Burkett?obId=33582798https://abcnews.go.com/US/young-texas-mom-killed-brutal-ambush-workplace/story?id=128052898

Nearly a year after the Sims family triple homicide, Tallahassee, Florida was struck with another heinous set of crimes. Two teenage girls were found brutally beaten, stabbed, and shot in a wooded area near Blue Sink. Unlike the murders of the Sims family, police had a viable suspect for the double homicide near the remote swimming hole. The question that haunted the community was impossible to ignore: were these crimes connected—or was Tallahassee facing a second, unrelated nightmare?

Loving father and husband, Keith Gentry, had built a beautiful family with his college sweetheart, Darlene, in Robinson, Texas.

Police quickly gravitated to the most obvious suspect, but they had no idea that she, herself, would lead them to the evidence they needed - hiding just beneath the surface.Instagram: @CousinsonCrimePodcastEmail: [email protected] Music by AleXZavesaJoin our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/CousinsOnCrimeCheck out our merch store! https://cousinsoncrime-shop.fourthwall.com/?Sources:
