In this special true crime crossover episode, I joined Carter Roy for a 2-part episode of Murder: True Crime Stories. To hear part 2 and my extended conversation with Carter, follow Murder: True Crime stories wherever you listen to podcasts.For nearly 30 years, Ken McElroy terrorized the small town of Skidmore, Missouri. Accused of theft, assault, arson, statutory rape, and intimidation, he manipulated the legal system and silenced witnesses through fear. When he shot 70-year-old grocery store owner Bo Bowenkamp in broad daylight—and still managed to delay justice yet again—the town’s patience began to crack. In Part 1 of this two-episode series, I join Carter Roy to help unravel how one man’s unchecked violence exposed the limits of the justice system and pushed a quiet farming community toward the brink.Follow Murder: True Crime Stories wherever you listen to podcasts to hear me on part 2 and an extended conversation about the case with Carter Roy.

A longtime jeweler and pawnbroker whose success made him seem like easy money.They came prepared with disguises, a stolen truck, and a plan designed to look official.

In the fall of 2021, a young couple in Cobb County, Georgia thought they’d found their dream home. An upscale subdivision. A quiet street. A perfect place to raise their two year old son.What they could not have known was that the house came with an unspoken history. A neighbor who had already crossed the line. A fear that had driven the previous owners to leave. And a threat that did not disappear when the “For Sale” sign went up.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

Always present. Always helping. Always opening the door.Then one summer night, a Ring doorbell rang just before midnight. A voice screaming for help. Blood on a front porch.

It was a calm fall night in Vermont when something suddenly felt off. A neighbor heard an engine roar through the quiet, then take off again. Not long after, sirens filled the air.By morning, the state was trying to understand how five teenagers had lost their lives, and how one man, Steven Bourgoin, became the center of a tragedy that would haunt Vermont for years. What happened on the highway was only part of the story. The harder question was what led up to it, and whether it could have been stopped.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

In the summer of 2024, a woman retreats into isolation, filling notebooks with carefully written details and rehearsing every line until it feels unshakable. To anyone watching, it looks like preparation. Discipline. Control.But what she is preparing for has nothing to do with school.When police are called to a Wisconsin apartment late one humid night, the story they’re given seems simple enough. Yet as investigators begin to listen closely, timelines shift, memories fracture, and the same brief window of time splinters into conflicting versions of the truth.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Nutrafol - Start your hair growth journey with Nutrafol.

Under the glare of fluorescent lights, the world feels suspended in time. Highway stops where strangers cross paths for minutes and then vanish back into the dark. Places built on movement, anonymity, and trust between people who know almost nothing about each other.When that trust is misplaced, a journey meant for escape or healing can quietly turn into something far more dangerous. What begins on the open road, in a place designed only for passing through, drifts toward a destination no one expects.Some crossroads are meant to lead you forward.Others are where everything stops.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Nutrafol - Start your hair growth journey with Nutrafol.
