    S03E26: Bound by Blood: Kenneth and Kari Allen

    Most of us have a sibling we’d do anything for. We grow up sharing toys, secrets, and eventually, the stresses of adulthood, but for Ken and Kari Allen, that bond took a sharp, lethal turn. It wasn't just 'us against the world'—it was 'us against anyone in our way.' Kenneth Allen, Jr. had spent most of his life away from his family, particularly his sister, Kari who was 11 years his junior, back in Indiana due to his parents, Sharon and Kenneth Allen, Sr divorcing when he was 14. Ken grew up in Florida while Kari lived with her mother in Noblesville, Indiana. After a life of counterfeiting, forgery, and theft, Ken decided to move home with his sister and mother at the age of 29 after doing a 14 month stint in prison in Arizona. He and 18-year-old Kari concocted a plan to kill their grandparents and take their money they had saved. Since their mother, Sharon, refused to help them, she had to die, too. After their killing spree, the pair buried the remains of all three victims under the basement floor at their grandparents' Indianapolis home and headed for Vegas, but a routine traffic stop uncovered their heinous crimes.  Sources Justia (2008) WTHR (2005) Los Angeles Times (2005) Sun Journal (2005) Find A Grave (2005) Find A Grave (2005) Find A Grave (2005) Audio/Docs Evil Kin Season 1 Episode 1 Thicker Than Blood Killer Kin Podcast Thicker Than Blood Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dark-deeds--6216218/support.

    S03E25: Cruelty in Numbers: The Greensburg Six Crimes Against Jennifer Daugherty

    In February 2010, the quiet town of Greensburg, Pennsylvania, was shaken by a crime so senseless it defied logic. Jennifer Daugherty, a 30-year-old woman known for her kind heart and trusting nature, thought she was spending time with friends. Instead, she walked into a trap that would lead to one of the most harrowing cases of group-think and depravity in modern history.  A group of six people she met and befriended at a place called West Place Clubhouse held Jennifer hostage in an apartment they all shared on North Pennsylvania Avenue for almost 2 days while they brutally tortured and humiliated her due to one group member's jealousy. The group ultimately decided to kill Jennifer, dismember her, and place her remains in a trash can which they placed in the parking lot of a nearby middle school.  This case brought to light the frequent exploitation and abuse that individuals with intellectual disabilities often face and helped push a law into effect that allows witnesses of crimes to be charged if they don't report the crimes.  Sources Supremecourt.gov  PAcourts.us (2020) Pittsburgh Post Gazette (2022)  NBC News (2010)  r/TrueCrime (2022)  Audio/Docs  Very Local |YouTube| Hometown Tragedy: The Twisted Horror of the Greensburg 6 Cruel Intentions: Frenemies: Loyalty Turned Lethal (2013)  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dark-deeds--6216218/support.

    S03E24: Stealing a Life: The Betrayal of Stevie Allman

    In 1997, a house fire in Oakland, California, captured the hearts of the community. Emerging from the smoke was Stevie Allman, a beloved alleged anti-drug activist who claimed local dealers had firebombed her home in retaliation for her neighborhood watch efforts. As she lay in the hospital with severe burns, the city rallied behind her, even receiving a sympathy letter from the White House.But as police looked closer at the woman in the hospital bed, the story began to fracture. Fingerprints revealed a horrifying truth: the woman being hailed as a hero wasn’t Stevie Allman at all—it was her sister, Sarah Mitchell. While Sarah Mitchell was being treated for her burns and basking in public sympathy, investigators returned to the charred remains of the Allman home. They weren't just looking for arson evidence anymore; they were looking for the real Stevie.The search ended at a large, chest freezer located in the basement. It was securely padlocked and wrapped in heavy chains. When investigators finally cut the locks, they made a discovery that halted the investigation in its tracks: the body of Stevie Allman, dismembered and frozen, hidden in plain sight while her sister lived just feet away.Forensic analysis later revealed a haunting timeline. Stevie hadn't died in the fire; she had been murdered earlier. Sarah had been living in the house with her sister’s body, cashing Stevie's checks and perfecting her impersonation, using the "firebombing" as a final, desperate act to cover her tracks and explain Stevie's permanent disappearance.

    S03E23: Ritual of Rumors: The Corpsewood Manor Slayings

    Deep in the woods of North Georgia, Dr. Charles Scudder and his partner, Joseph "Joey" Odom sought a peaceful, off-grid life in a hand-built brick mansion they called Corpsewood Manor.  Rumors always swirled about the lovers and their quaint handbuilt home in the woods. The fact that they were "homosexual devil worshippers" was often the talk of the area, but these men were kind, welcoming, and enjoyed the simple life with the occassional wild party.      But in 1982, their castle became the site of a grisly double homicide that shocked the nation when two young men devised a plot to rob the men, thinking they must be millionaires due to their extravagant home. Dr. Scudder and Joey invited a 17-year-old hunter in the area, Avery Brock to parties at their home when he stumbled upon it while hunting, asking if he could hunt on the property. Avery then discussed the men and their "so-called fortune" with his troubled roommate, 30-year-old Tony West.       On the night of December 12, 1982, Avery and Tony decided to put their robbery plan in motion by attending a party at Corpsewood Manor. They brought along two unsuspecting friends, as well, Tony's nephew, Joey Wells, and his friend, Teresa Hudgins. The pair weren't aware of the robbery plan. At the party, Avery shot and killed Joey Odom in his kitchen along with their two English Mastiffs when he tried to explain to them that there was no large fortune hidden in the home. Avery and Tony then tied up and tormented Dr. Scudder, and when he also gave them no fortune, the men shot him 5 times in the head before fleeing the scene with only silver jewelry and Dr. Scudder's black jeep.      To this day, Corpsewood Manor sits in ruins after a fire destroyed everything but the bricks. Many say it still has an eerie and sad air about it, with people claiming to hear the dogs barking, gunshots, and other unsettling noises.  Sources Abandoned Georgia (2023)  Abandoned Southeast  Atlanta Magazine (2022) Oxford American (2024)  Atlas Obscura  Church of Satan  Justia Law- Supreme Court of Mississippi (1985) Books/Documentaries The Corpsewood Manor Murders In North Georgia by Amy Petulla Dead Silent S01E2: Welcome to the Devil House Podcast by ID: Deadly Nightmares: Welcome to the Devil House Mystery Archives YouTube: The Untold Story of Corpsewood Manor-Georgia (2025) Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dark-deeds--6216218/support.

    S03E22: Bad Medicine: Dirk Greineder's Double Life

    On a crisp Halloween morning in 1999, Dr. Dirk Greineder—a world-renowned allergist and pillar of the elite Wellesley community in Massachusetts—placed a frantic 911 call from the banks of Morses Pond. His wife of 31 years, Mabel "May" Greineder, had been brutally beaten, stabbed, and almost decapitated during their morning walk. Dirk told investigators that May had stopped to rest and he went on ahead, but when he returned to her, he found she had been attacked. As investigators looked past the doctor’s grief, they discovered a tangled web of secret identities, sex addiction, digital obsessions, and a "perfect" marriage that was anything but. Dirk has been incarcerated for almost 26 years and still maintains his innocence to this day.

    S03E21: The Ruhr Hunter: The Decades of Joachim Kroll

    For over two decades, a shadow loomed over West Germany, Joachim Kroll, from 1955 to 1976, children and young women vanished without a trace, leaving a trail of terror that spanned cities, but the monster wasn’t hiding in the woods—he was living in a cramped apartment in Duisburg, working as a restroom attendant and living a life of quiet, dull routine. Children in Duisburg loved visiting Joachim as he often gave them candy and toys. He was known by neighbors to be a polite, pleasant guy to everyone, although a bit odd. How could a man dismissed by society as "dim-witted" manage to outsmart the police for 21 years until the gruesome discovery involving a neighbor's plumbing?  Sources The Serial Killer Magazine  Murderpedia  All That's Interesting (2020) Utterly Interesting  Documentaries Real Crime-YouTube-Joachim Kroll: Serial Killer Who Owned a Manor | World's Most Evil Killers (2021)  Bizarre Bazaar- YouTube- He MURDERED Them Because MEAT WAS EXPENSIVE (2024) Evil Among Us-YouTube-The Horrific Crimes of Joachim Kroll [True Crime Documentary] (2024)  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dark-deeds--6216218/support.

    S03E20: The Inside Job: Money, Malice, and the Murder of Gail Spencer

    In October 2012, 58-year-old Gail Spencer arrived at her office in Macon, Gerogia expecting another routine day as a legal secretary and office manager at Calder Pinkston & Associates Law Firm. At this time, she had no idea that a coworker had already set a lethal plan in motion to embezzle funds from the firm using her to obtain them.       On October 5, 2012, 38-year-old Tracy Jones (Gail's coworker), Tracy's 18-year-old boyfriend, Michael Brett Kelly, and their friend, 23-year-old Keith Anthony Dozier entered the home of Gail Spencer after Tracy lured her to the front door by knocking and asking to use her phone saying her car broke down nearby. When Gail let Tracy into her home, the two men entered behind her where they went into Gail's bedroom as she was getting ready for work, held a gun to Gail, tied her up, and took her work credentials that would allow Tracy to access the law firm's financial accounts.       The two men held Gail hostage while Tracy and Michael's sister, Courtney Kelly returned to the law firm so Tracy could transfer just under $1.3 million to accounts Courtney had opened at various banks. While this was happening, Michael assaulted and strangled Gail Spencer and took off in her car, leaving her body lying across her bed with a black trash bag over her face.        Gail's body was discovered the next morning when her neighbors who had asked her to let their dog out came home to find their dog in their yard and Gail not answering the door. All four perpetrators in the crime were given life sentences, with Courtney being the only one to have a chance at parole.
