  • 362. Natural Born Killer: The Murders of Stephen Dempsey & Ezzedine Bahmad
    2026/06/02
    The southeastern shores of Australia are famous for gorgeous beaches, whale watching, and sunny holiday vibes, but in late 1994, the people of Sydney’s Northern Beaches were shocked by two horrific crimes. It began with a 34-year-old landscape gardener, Stephen Dempsey, who went missing after an impromptu stop at the Deep Creek Reserve. Months later, a gentle father of seven and taxi driver, Ezzedine Bahmad, was brutally murdered during a late-night shift. Police were left with two separate mysteries until a gruesome discovery in the waters of Pittwater broke both cases wide open. The clues led investigators straight to a 21-year-old local predator and a secret inside a refrigerator. Join Jen & Cam as they discuss "Natural Born Killer: The Murders of Stephen Dempsey & Ezzedine Bahmad."

  • 361. The Sleepover: Browning Family Massacre
    2026/05/27
    In the quiet suburb of Cockeysville, Maryland, nothing bad was supposed to happen. Families left their doors unlocked. Neighbors trusted one another. And the Browning family seemed picture perfect. Fifteen-year-old Nicholas Browning was bright, polite, and dependable, a Boy Scout, a good student, the kind of teenager parents trusted without question. But on a cold February night in 2008, that image would shatter forever. After being dropped off for what should have been an ordinary sleepover with friends, Nick returned home the next morning to a nightmare scene: his parents, John and Tamara Browning, and his two younger brothers, Benjamin and Gregory, had all been brutally murdered. What investigators uncovered next would shock an entire community and reveal a darkness hiding behind the facade of an all-American family. Join Cam and Jen for this episode of Our True Crime Podcast, titled ‘The Sleepover: Browning Family Massacre.’ Be sure to check out the promo for Rogue Transmission from our friend Edward at OctoberpodVHS. This 80s-inspired cyberpunk audio anthology brings together independent horror and true crime podcasts for a special DungeonPunk-themed broadcast on June 2. And if you listen closely… You just might hear a familiar voice or two. And speaking of Edward, that is him with our listener discretion at the top of the show.

  • Special: The Murder of Kiara Agnew with Nikki for Serial Napper
    2026/05/25
    In this month’s special, Cam and Jen talk with Nikki from ⁠Serial Napper⁠. In March 2023, 23-year-old Kiara Agnew left her home in Dawson Creek, British Columbia, to celebrate her birthday in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. It was her very first time leaving Canada. Less than twelve hours after checking into a luxury five-star resort, the dream vacation was shattered. Kiara was found beaten to death in the resort's laundry room, with her boyfriend discovered asleep right next to her body. What the Mexican authorities initially called an "open and shut" case of femicide quickly spiraled into a complex web of legal battles, a shocking "not guilty" verdict, and deeply divided families. Listen as Nikki helps us unpack a devastating case marked by conflicting timelines, missing surveillance footage, and a family's ongoing fight for answers. Don’t forget to subscribe to Nikki’s podcast,⁠ Serial Napper⁠. Available wherever you get your podcasts.

  • 360. In the Woods: The Murders of Kara Kopetsky & Jessica Runions
    2026/05/20
    On a May morning in 2007, a 17-year-old girl walked out of her Missouri high school, stepped away from a security camera, and vanished. For nearly ten years, her family lived without answers. They were certain they knew who took her, but without any physical evidence, the case went completely cold. Then, in September 2016, history repeated itself. Another young woman, just 21, disappeared after leaving a party with the same man. What followed was a frantic search and a series of dark discoveries in the Missouri brush. Two girls vanished ten years apart, but their stories ended in the exact same place, deep in the Cass County woods. *****If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence or relationship abuse, confidential help is available 24/7.

  • 359. Stolen: The Abduction and Murder of Hailey Owens
    2026/05/13
    Just after 5:00 p.m. on February 18, 2014, ten-year-old Hailey Owens set out on the short walk home from a friend’s house. What began as an ordinary Tuesday turned horrific when neighbors Carlos and Michelle Edwards watched a tan Ford Ranger pull alongside Hailey. After asking for directions, the driver suddenly grabbed her and dragged her into the truck as she tried to walk away. Carlos Edwards sprinted after the vehicle, nearly reaching Hailey before the truck disappeared down the street, while another neighbor chased the kidnapper and called 911. Michelle managed to provide the police with the license plate as panic swept through the quiet neighborhood. Just doors away, Hailey’s mother, Stacey, was preparing dinner, expecting her daughter home any minute, only to be met instead by flashing police lights, frantic officers, and the horrifying realization that her child had been abducted. As volunteers flooded the streets with flashlights and Hailey’s smiling photo spread across social media, the entire city of Springfield, Missouri, held its breath.

  • Special: Sister Tadea Benz & Johnny Garret with Courtney from Book of the Dead
    2026/05/11
    This month, we have a talk with Courtney from The Book of the Dead, who joins us to talk about the murder of Sister Tadea Benz and the execution of Johnny Frank Garret. In October 1981, the quiet city of Amarillo, Texas, was rocked by a crime that felt like a nightmare: the brutal assault and murder of 76-year-old Sister Tadea Benz inside St. Francis Convent. The pressure to catch the killer was on, and the police quickly set their sights on 17-year-old Johnny, who lived across the street. Johnny Frank Garrett was executed by the state of Texas in 1992, but was he a cold-blooded killer, or a convenient scapegoat? Don't forget to subscribe to Courtney's podcast, ⁠The Book of the Dead⁠.

  • 358. Unbelieveable: The Murder of Mindi Kassotis
    2026/05/06
    When hunters in Bulltown Swamp discovered the remains of an unidentified woman in late 2022, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation was left with a mystery that felt impossible to solve. There were no matching missing person reports, no DNA matches, just a dental implant and a crime scene that looked like an attempt to make a person disappear forever. Months later, the GBI got the lead they needed when someone recognized the victim from an artist’s rendering that appeared on television. What they would soon hear would be unbelievable.
