    Justice for Iris Rita Alfera

    Justice for Iris Rita Alfera

    This story is hard to listen to, but I feel so drawn to it and have this need to share it on the podcast because I grew up in the same area where this happened, so it’s very near and dear to my heart. I came across this story from someone who shared it with me that I know personally. This may not be a very lengthy episode, but it’s a big one, especially for the family affected. This week’s story involves a child who was murdered in a tragic, horrific way, and because of the nature of this crime, please be advised, especially if you have young ears listening, that the details surrounding this case are graphic and may be disturbing.
    This devastating nightmare happened in June 2023. Recently, Pennsylvania’s Attorney General announced on January 11, 2024, that a Lawrence County woman has been arrested on charges related to the abuse and death of her boyfriend’s one-year-old daughter.
    Baby Iris Alfera's family hopes to help protect children in future cases.

    The Stockdale Family

    The Stockdale Family

    At first glance, the Stockdale family appeared to be your average close-knit American family, residing in a rural area and being very interested in both music and religion. The parents and their four boys appeared on the well-liked ABC program Wife Swap back in 2008. However, tragedy struck at the Stockdale residence on June 15, 2017. It was the first time police had ever heard from the Stockdale household when they hung up on 911 from their home.

Great show but too short

Love the show but the episodes are entirely too short. Most true crime shows are at least 40-50 minutes.
