    Blurred Lines Podcast: Crime, Conspiracy and the truth behind the Gossip. Wade Wilson: What the Internet missed, Two women killed

    In this episode of Blurred Lines, we step away from viral narratives and focus on the lives that were lost. Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz were two women killed by Wade Wilson after a documented pattern of escalating violence. While parts of this case garnered attention online under misleading nicknames and edited clips, the reality is far more serious—and far more devastating. This episode examines the warning signs of domestic violence, how escalation can turn deadly, and the harm caused when true crime becomes entertainment. We center the victims, acknowledge the survivor whose voice mattered, and look at how social media blurred the line between accountability and idolization. This is not a story about a persona. It’s a story about real women, real loss, and the consequences of ignoring red flags. Be aware, I did change Melissa's nickname just due to her privacy thanks! Listener discretion is advised.

    Blurred Lines: Crime, Conspiracy and the truth behind the gossip. Blood in The Lanes: The Las Cruces Bowling Alley Massacre

    Episode: Blood on the Lanes — The Las Cruces Bowling Alley Massacre On February 10, 1990, an ordinary Sunday morning at a Las Cruces bowling alley turned into one of the most disturbing mass shootings in New Mexico history. Seven people were shot execution-style. Five would ultimately lose their lives — including one victim who survived for nearly a decade before dying from complications related to her injuries. Two survived, one of them a 12-year-old girl who, despite being shot five times, managed to call 911. Thirty-five years later, the case remains unsolved. In this long-form episode of Blurred Lines, we take a careful, fact-focused deep dive into the Las Cruces Bowling Alley Massacre — a case that has been widely misreported for decades. Victim names have been confused, survivor accounts blurred, and key details repeated incorrectly. This episode sets the record straight. We walk through: Who was inside the bowling alley that morningWhat is known — and what is still unknown — about the attackThe bravery of a child whose 911 call saved livesThe long-term impact on survivors and the communityWhy is one victim officially recognized as a fatality years laterHow misinformation has shaped public understanding of the caseThe current status of the investigation and the standing rewardThis is not speculation. This is not sensationalism. This is a deliberate, respectful reconstruction of a case still waiting for justice. If you have information related to this case, a $25,000 reward is still being offered through Crime Stoppers of Las Cruces–Doña Ana County. Sometimes the truth lives in the blurred lines.

    In this episode of Blurred Lines, we step into one of the most baffling missing-person mysteries to ever happen at sea.

Just a timeline full of questions and decades of reported sightings that keep her case alive. We break down the night she disappeared, the investigation that followed, and the updates highlighted in recent documentaries and case reviews. From overlooked leads to unsettling eyewitness accounts, we walk you through the pieces of a story that still refuses to add up.
