#85 Michelle Knotek — "The House That Hurt People”

Tell me what stayed with you—I read every message. Your thoughts might even shape what the Quiet Jury hears next on Patreon. 🎙 Episode 85: “Michelle Knotek — The House That Hurt People” Standalone Episode Michelle Knotek didn’t kill with knives or rage. She used manipulation, isolation, and slow, invisible cruelty. She took in the vulnerable—friends, family, boarders—and offered them safety. What she delivered instead was psychological torture, starvation, humiliation… and, eventually, death. In this episode, we walk through the haunted halls of her home, where kindness was a weapon, silence was a sentence, and escape was never an option. From Kathy Loreno to Ronald Woodworth to her own nephew, Shane Watson—Michelle didn't just erase people… she made them feel like they erased themselves. This is not a story about a violent explosion of rage. This is the story of a woman who took her time. 📍 Location: Raymond, Washington 📅 Date of Crimes: 1991–2003 👥 Victims: Kathy Loreno, Ronald Woodworth, Shane Watson ⚖️ Conviction: Two counts of second-degree murder, one count of manslaughter, multiple counts of assault and criminal mistreatment 🔒 Sentence: 22 years in prison (released in 2022) 📚 Sources: Washington State v. Michelle Knotek, court transcripts and plea documents Testimony from Nikki Knotek CBS News, The Seattle Times, The Daily Chronicle Department of Corrections records Forensic evidence and investigative reports Recorded interviews with law enforcement and family members 🎧 Murderess Podcast is written and hosted by Sidney Smith. 🎙 In conjunction with Sidney Smith Cre8tiv, LLC, this is a You Hear Good Things production. 📅 New episodes released weekly.

Your thoughts might even shape what the Quiet Jury hears next on Patreon. 🎙 Episode 84: “Debora Green — The Doctor Who Prescribed Her Own Destruction” (Part of the Mothers Who Kill Arc) Deborah Green was a brilliant physician, a mother, and a woman seemingly in control—until everything around her began to collapse. Beneath the facade of success and stability, resentment, betrayal, and emotional unraveling festered. In this episode, we peel back the layers of a woman who burned down her own world—both figuratively and literally. When arson and poisoning collide with a crumbling marriage, the result is a tragedy that devastates an entire family—and exposes how slow, calculated destruction can hide in plain sight. 📍 Location: Prairie Village, Kansas 📅 Date of Crime: October 23, 1995 👥 Victims: Timothy Green (13 years old) and Kelly Green (6 years old) ⚖️ Conviction: Two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted murder, one count of aggravated arson 🔒 Sentence: Two consecutive 40-year sentences (no parole eligibility for 40 years) 📚 Sources: Bitter Harvest by Ann Rule (primary nonfiction account)Court records and trial transcripts from Johnson County, KansasCoverage by The Kansas City Star and The New York TimesFire investigation reports and forensic toxicology reports🎬 CREDITS 🎧 Murderess Podcast is written and hosted by Sidney Smith. 🎙 Music, editing, and production by Laugh Local Studios. 🔪 This is a Laugh Local Network production. 📅 New episodes released weekly.

#106 Erin Caffey - "The Door She Opened (Revisited)

Tell me what stayed with you—I read every message. Your thoughts might even shape what the Quiet Jury hears next on Patreon. 🎙 Episode 106: Erin Caffey — “The Door Was Unlocked” This episode revisits a story that meant a great deal to someone who believed deeply in this show March 1, 2008. Emory, Texas. Just after midnight, a fire erupts at a quiet brick home on a rural road. Firefighters expect an accident. Instead, they discover something unthinkable. Inside the house: A mother and two young boys, shot execution-style. A father barely alive — burned, bleeding, whispering a truth no one expects. Down the road, a teenage girl waits. Uninjured. Crying. Telling police the same thing again and again: “They shot my family.” But this is not a story about strangers breaking into a home. It’s a story about control, faith, adolescence — and a door that was unlocked on purpose. In this episode of Murderess Podcast, Sidney Smith examines the case of Erin Caffey: a deeply religious upbringing, a forbidden relationship framed as rescue, and a plan that turned obedience into annihilation. This is not a Romeo-and-Juliet story. It’s not a cautionary tale about rebellion. It’s a study of agency, influence, and the devastating consequences of choice. 📍 Location: Emory, Texas 📅 Key Dates: 1990 birth → early 2000s escalating conflict → March 1, 2008 murders → 2009 conviction → post-2010 sentencing changes 👥 Central Figures: Erin Caffey, Charlie Wilkinson, Terry Caffey, Penny Caffey and Matthew & Tyler Caffey 🧠 Themes: Control vs. autonomy, Faith and obedience,Manipulation and agency, Forgiveness without erasure and The difference between influence and responsibility 🎧 Murderess Podcast is written and hosted by Sidney Smith 🎙 Produced in partnership with Sidney Smith Cre8tiv, LLC and the You Hear Good Things podcast network 📅 New episodes every Thursday 🔗 Find past episodes, bonus content, and Quiet Jury access: https://www.sidneysmithcre8tiv.com → Cre8tiv+ 🎧 Listen on your favorite platform: Spotify | Apple Podcasts | iHeartRadio 📱 Follow Sidney Smith: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | Facebook | Twitter → @sidneysmithcre8tiv Official Sources Used:– Texas v.

#100 Megan Huntsman - Part 2 (Final) - "The Confession"

Tell me what stayed with you—I read every message. Your thoughts might even shape what the Quiet Jury hears next on Patreon. 🎙 Episode 100: Megan Huntsman — “The Confession” Part 2 of a multi-part series February 2015. In a Utah courtroom, a mother admits to the unthinkable. What began as a story of one stillborn child has unraveled into a confession of six murders. In Part 2 of the Megan Huntsman story, host Sidney Smith takes you inside the interrogation room where eighteen years of silence collapsed into words, and into the courtroom where family voices, prosecution arguments, and judicial disbelief collided. Through detectives’ testimony, letters from Huntsman’s daughters, and statements from her mother and sister, this episode examines how a community tried to reconcile the woman they thought they knew with the crimes she confessed to. And in the end, it considers the broader weight of neonaticide, hidden pregnancies, and the silence that thrives in places where appearances matter more than truth. 📍 Location: Pleasant Grove & Provo, Utah 📅 Key Dates: 1996–2006 (murders), April 2014 (discovery & arrest), February–April 2015 (plea and sentencing) 👥 Central Figures: Megan Huntsman, Detective Dan Beckstrom, Joyce Huntsman, Jamie Huntsman, Darren West, Utah County Attorney Jeff Buhman, Judge Darold McDade 🧠 Themes: Secrecy, addiction, neonaticide, hidden pregnancies, the silence of community denial 📖 Next Episode Preview: A new case begins — one where secrecy takes another shape, and where the truth is hidden in plain sight. 🎧 Murderess Podcast is written and hosted by Sidney Smith 🎙 Produced in partnership with Sidney Smith Cre8tiv, LLC and the You Hear Good Things podcast network 📅 New episodes every Thursday 🔗 Find past episodes, merch, and tour dates: https://www.sidneysmithcre8tiv.com 🎧 Stream the show on your favorite platform: Spotify | Apple Podcasts | iHeartRadio 📱 Follow Sidney on social: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | Facebook | Twitter → @sidneysmithcre8tiv Official Sources Used: – Utah v.

#86 Jasmine Richardson — The Girl Who Smiled Through the Blood

Tell me what stayed with you—I read every message. Your thoughts might even shape what the Quiet Jury hears next on Patreon. 🎙 Episode 86: “Jasmine Richardson — The Girl Who Smiled Through the Blood” Standalone Episode She was 12 years old. He was 23. And together, they planned the brutal murder of her entire family. In this episode, we trace the chilling case of Jasmine Richardson—a middle school girl who fell under the spell of Jeremy Steinke, a man who claimed to be a 300-year-old werewolf. What began as gothic roleplay online quickly evolved into obsession, violence, and a triple homicide that left a town shattered and a country stunned. From the calm inside the crime scene to the messages too disturbing for court, this is the story of a child who chose destruction—and what the justice system does when the killer is still a kid. Because some crimes don’t start with rage. They start with whispers. And end with silence. 📍 Location: Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada 📅 Date of Crimes: April 23, 2006 👥 Victims: Marc Richardson, Debra Richardson, Jacob Richardson (8) ⚖️ Conviction: Three counts of first-degree murder (both Jasmine and Jeremy) 🔒 Sentence: Jasmine – 10 years under the Youth Criminal Justice Act Jeremy – Three life sentences (parole eligibility after 25 years) 📚 Sources: R. v.
