True Crime 24/7

Creator at Obomedia

True crime is rarely defined by a single piece of evidence or one version of events. True Crime 24/7 examines criminal cases through the details that shape investigations: timelines, witness accounts, forensic evidence, unanswered questions, and the decisions that can change the direction of a case. From murders and disappearances to cold cases and complex investigations, the focus stays on understanding what happened, what investigators were able to establish, and what may still remain unresolved. Every case raises questions that go beyond the headline. Which details were known from the beginning? What evidence changed the investigation? Where do witness statements agree, and where do they conflict? How can a timeline expose gaps that were previously overlooked? The show follows these investigative threads carefully, separating established facts from allegations and uncertainty while giving listeners the context needed to understand how criminal cases develop. What to Expect on True Crime 24/7: Immersive Storytelling: Clear, focused narratives guide you through the people, events, and investigative developments surrounding each case without losing sight of the larger picture. Investigative Details: Timelines, evidence, testimony, forensic findings, and unresolved questions are examined to show how individual details can influence the understanding of a crime. Case Context: Each story looks beyond the central incident to examine the circumstances, investigative challenges, and unanswered questions that continue to matter. Behind every investigation are victims, families, communities, and consequences that extend far beyond a case file. The pursuit of answers matters because understanding what happened can clarify responsibility, expose failures, preserve important facts, and keep unresolved questions from disappearing with time.

    The fabricated identity of Mark Hacking

    The fabricated identity of Mark Hacking: The murder of Lori Hacking A new mattress purchased between two calls to the police. A pregnant wife disappears in the early morning of July 19, 2004, and her husband says he simply forgot to mention that he had replaced the bed that very morning. But the impossible is not the forgetfulness: it is that no one in his life - neither his family, nor his church, nor the university - knew that the man with whom they slept every night was completely fictitious. In this episode, we explore how Mark Hacking built a life of systematic lies: the false graduation in psychology, the nonexistent acceptance to medical school in Chapel Hill, the job as a therapist that never existed. While Lori discovered the truth on July 16, Mark was already preparing his definitive silence. How did a serial killer of parallel lives manage to deceive two families, an entire church, and a university for years? Victim: Lori Hacking Date: July 19, 2004 Location: Salt Lake City, Utah Status: Crime solved - life sentence - Mark bought a new mattress and clean sheets between 10:07 and 10:49 on July 19 - exactly when he was reporting his wife's disappearance. - Lori's keys, wallet, and purse were in the apartment, completely invalidating his version that she went out for a run alone. - The seat and mirrors of the car were adjusted for a person 1.80 meters tall; Lori was 1.63 meters - someone taller drove that vehicle. - An undated letter found in the guest bedroom documents that Lori already knew Mark's lies before the final crime.

    The lie that cost a life: Donald and the perfect crime

    The lie that cost a life: Donald and the perfect crime: The murder of Mark McDermott in West Virginia Mark McDermott was quietly reading on his sofa on the morning of his adopted son Donald's graduation when two gunshots rang out. The impossible: the young man he had lovingly raised for 20 years had planned for months to stage a murder-suicide of his mother to hide that he was falsifying his college grades. A jammed slide saved the mother; the son confessed without remorse. In this episode, we explore how a two-year academic lie transformed into a cold plan of premeditated murder, how a young man with no history of violence trained at shooting ranges months prior, and why he decided that killing was easier than confessing the truth to his parents. The details of the investigation reveal disturbing contradictions: a mother willing to take the blame, a weapon deliberately loaded with three specific bullets, and a confession where the son claimed he would do it again. Victim: Mark John McDermott Date: May 25, 2013 Location: Stanford, West Virginia Status: Life sentence without parole - Donald loaded the weapon with exactly three bullets: two for Mark, one for his mother Joana, according to his own confession. - A poorly handled slide prevented the third shot; the only factor that avoided the second murder was a technical error by the killer. - Joana Line Spade arrived at the police station willing to take all the blame before revealing that her 25-year-old son had attempted to kill her. - During interrogation, Donald stated with no visible emotion that he considered murder easier than facing his parents, and that he would repeat the crime without hesitation.

    The Oscar Call: The Perfect Crime of Julie Dixon

    The Oscar Call: The Perfect Crime of Julie Dixon: The Murder of David Twig in Lincolnshire A woman dials 999 hysterically reporting that her husband is burning trapped in a fire. Firefighters rescue him. No one survives. She has facial burns and a perfect story. The judge compared her to a performance worthy of an Oscar. But three days earlier, an arrest warrant had been issued against her husband for debts she had hidden for months. In this episode, we explore how a woman built an impossible alibi: three contradictory versions of the same night, gasoline purchased hours before the fire, remnants of her own eyelashes in the workshop bathroom, and computer searches about methods that leave no traces. Investigators uncovered a hidden bankruptcy of £17,000, blocked correspondence, and witnesses who swear that David was happy and never knew the truth. Victim: David Twig Date: March 13, 2011 Location: Burgh le Marsh, Lincolnshire, England Status: Guilty, life sentence - Julie bought 22 liters of gasoline in two cans the morning of the fire, contradicting her version of external attackers. - The burned eyelashes and eyebrows found in the workshop bathroom belonged to Julie, proving she was inside during the crime. - Previous searches on her computer: "what kills you without showing up in an autopsy" and "how to disguise pills with food." - The judge stated with certainty that David wanted to live and that the fire was premeditated murder, not assisted death.

    Nine years walled in: the confession that solved two deaths

    Nine years walled up: the confession that solved two deaths: The homicide of Sibora Gagani A man stops his life in front of a missing woman poster from nine years ago and confesses: "I killed her and walled her up." Sibora Gagani disappeared on July 7, 2014, from an apartment in Torremolinos. Nine years later, Marco Ciao Romeo lived in the same place, changed partners, went to the gym, smiled at neighbors. How was it possible that no one discovered the body for almost a decade? In this episode, we explore the architecture of crime: how Marco convinced Sibora to return after a breakup, how he hid her corpse in a wall with lime and flowers, and how the same pattern of violence reappears years later with Paula, who received 14 stab wounds. Two deaths linked by a man, a stolen knife, and a system of alerts that documented everything but stopped nothing. Victim: Sibora Gagani Date: July 7, 2014 Location: Torremolinos, Spain Status: Resolved by confession; trial pending - Sibora was found in saponification inside a drawer behind a wall, identified by tattoos documented in the original missing person report. - Marco was registered in the VioGén system for gender violence before Paula's crime, with precautionary measures that did not prevent new cohabitation. - The 30-centimeter knife with a black handle was stolen by Marco from a shop days before killing Paula, the same type of weapon used with Sibora. - The last record of Sibora alive is a WhatsApp message sent to Marco on July 7, 2014; the phone has been disconnected since then.

    The letter that confessed the horror: Zac Bowen and Adi Hall

    The letter that confessed the horror: Zac Bowen and Adi Hall. The murder of Adi Hall in New Orleans A letter in the pocket of a man who jumps from the seventh floor describes with surgical precision where to find the remains of his girlfriend: scattered between the oven, burners, and refrigerator of the apartment. But the impossible part is that for twelve days, he continued working, socializing, and smiling as if nothing had happened. In this episode, we explore the spiral of violence between Adi Hall and Zac Bowen, two survivors of Hurricane Katrina whose lives fractured in October 2006. We will examine the lease that sealed their fate, the eight handwritten pages that narrated every detail of the crime, and how a war veteran with PTSD became a murderer. What led them from shared survival to coldly premeditated death? Victim: Adi Hall Date: October 4-5, 2006 Location: New Orleans, French Quarter, Rampart apartment Status: Case solved by confession and suicide - The lease signed only in Adi's name four days before the crime was the direct trigger for the final fight. - Zac wrote an eight-page confession detailing the strangulation and dismemberment while continuing to work normally. - Twenty-eight cigarette burns on his body represented, according to his writing, each year of life he considered a failure. - The letter in his pocket provided the police with exact instructions on where to find Adi's cooked remains.

    The recording that condemned the wrong friend

    The recording that condemned the wrong friend: The femicide of Silvia Jazmín Armendaris Silvia Jazmín recorded an audio before disappearing, naming her ex-boyfriend as a suspect if anything happened to her. She delivered that recording to her best friend Andrea. Four years later, Andrea was sentenced to 70 years in prison for the same crime. The contradiction: the judge who sentenced her was arrested months later for selling freedoms in homicide cases. In this episode, we explore the three competing versions of cell phone geolocation, the protected witnesses who got dates wrong, and the sentence that collapsed when judicial corruption came to light. The question remains: Was Andrea an accomplice or a victim of a system where 89% of femicides in Veracruz go unpunished? Victim: Silvia Jazmín Armendaris Date: August 14, 2019 Location: Minatitlán, Veracruz, Mexico Status: Aldo detained; Andrea sentenced to 70 years; corrupt judge arrested in March 2023 - Silvia was burned alive in flammable bags; only her legs remained unburned, allowing identification by her nails - Judge Florencio Hernández Espinoza, who sentenced Andrea in September 2022, was arrested three months later for releasing murderers in exchange for money - Andrea's geolocation placed her at a spa confirmed by her mother; the court rejected this exculpatory evidence without public explanation - Aldo was accidentally captured in July 2020 after a drunken altercation at a bus stop, not through direct investigation Silvia Jazmín Armendaris, Minatitlán femicide 2019, incineration, serial murder judicial corruption, forensic investigation, imperfect justice, criminal minds, homicide Veracruz, true crime Spanish To listen ad-free and access premium episodes, start your 30-day free trial at obomedia.com OBOMEDIA presents true crime storiesa true crime podcast built on real cases.

    The Challenge That Cost Moría Her Life

    The Challenge That Cost Moría Her Life: The Murder of Moría González A 15-year-old girl dared her friend, telling her she didn’t have the guts to hurt her. It was her last mistake. In the early hours of March 17, 2012, a driver discovered a charred body on a gravel road in Texas. What began as a find that seemed impossible to identify ended up unraveling a premeditated crime and a decade of evading justice. In this episode, we explore how Moría’s cell phone records pointed directly to Jennifer Puente, how a crown tattoo under the neck made identification possible when all seemed lost, and why Jennifer took more than ten years to be captured in Mexico. The postmortem mutilations reveal an act of symbolic violence that defies any understanding of what could have motivated such brutality. Victim: Moría González Date: March 17, 2012 Location: Ellis County, Texas, United States Status: Convicted (Jennifer Puente, 40 years old) - Jennifer Puente remained a fugitive for ten years after the murder, crossing the border into Mexico. - The body was found charred, but the crown tattoo under the neck remained intact, allowing for definitive identification. - Joe Alvarado was an eyewitness to the murder without intervening; he later negotiated immunity in exchange for testifying against Jennifer. - The postmortem mutilations formed a five-pointed star with insults carved into it, indicating premeditation and criminal symbolism.

    Two Days to Kill: The Flaw That Cost Milo

    Two Days to Kill: The Failure that Cost Milo: The Homicide of Milo Alexander Derto Guerrero A court order granted custody to Felipe. But Paula was notified in advance. In those 48 hours, the two-year-old boy was suffocated in his bed. The system saw all the signs: videos of Milo unconscious, audio recordings where Paula threatened to "take him with her in the same coffin," photos of extreme neglect. All were rejected or filed away. In this episode, we explore how a report of threats went unaddressed, how the police dismissed prior warnings, and how the protective measure itself became a trigger for the crime. The injuries to Milo's mouth and cheek were not consistent with CPR. Paula's toxicology ruled out alcohol and medication. The grounds for the conviction were never published. Victim: Milo Alexander Derto Guerrero Date: January 15, 2022 Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina Status: Sentenced to 3 years; released the same day - Paula sent audio messages to her brother saying that before handing Milo over, "she would take him with her." - Found with the unconscious child at a bus stop under +30°C; Felipe summoned to the scene. - OVD issued a custody order to Felipe on January 14; Paula was notified before it was executed. - Autopsy revealed cerebral edema, pulmonary congestion, and bite marks on the cheek inconsistent with attempted resuscitation.
