    Minisode EP 03: Homotown Murders | Splattered Pants and Splattered Walls | Steven Lorenzo

    Minisode EP 03: Homotown Murders | Splattered Pants and Splattered Walls | Steven Lorenzo

    Today's Homotown Murder was submitted by Julius Vaughn. Not only is he an avid Homocide listener and follower, he is also a friend of hosts Kevin and Brandon. His energy is addicting, and his storytelling - is on point, henny!
    In his Homotown murder, Julius tells the tale of sleazeball shitbag, Steven Lorenzo. Taking his fantasies to an extremely unhealthy level, Steven quickly becomes the reason behind Tampa gays creating a buddy system. This twisted story will keep you on your toes, helping to drive the message that it's always important to trust that little voice in your head that says, "no f*ckin way!" We'll keep it direct — stranger danger is real, people!

    EP 20: Are You Kid-ing Me!? | Daniel Bartlam and Mary Bell

    EP 20: Are You Kid-ing Me!? | Daniel Bartlam and Mary Bell

    Leave the murdering to the adults, kids! God, these murderous children have no manners! Today is part two of kids who kill so BUCKLE UP. This episode will have you looking sideways at that creepy kid whose always making disturbing comments. Turns out, you actually can’t always chalk it up to a wild imagination.
    Brandon is taking us to England where an argument about sneakers apparently turned south and ended with a mother slain by her own child. Jacqueline Bartlam, mother to Daniel and Dominic, was described as a sweet woman. People even described Daniel and Jacqueline as being close!
    So why would her own child turn against her? Surely it wasn’t just because of a pair of shoes. Well, certain disturbing incidents (…pooping and peeing in super inappropriate places…), definitely pointed towards mental illness. But you’ll have to tune into the episode to find out what the verdict in Daniel’s case was!
    Then, Kevin is introducing us to an iconic (demonic?) little girl named Mary Bell. Mary Bell and her creepy, gross friend Norma might bring the shining twins to mind. Mary Bell was taking her childhood trauma and inflicting it tenfold on the younger kids in the schoolyard. Four-year-old Martin Brown was found with an empty bottle of pills next to his body. Originally, his death was assumed to be an accident. Weird oversight considering Mary Bell actually strangled him!
    We’re diving into nature vs. nurture, The Mary Bell Orders (think witness protection…for convicts), and a b!tch named Sarah. It’s a wild ride that’s sure to keep you up at night! Just what you twisted weirdos ordered! XOXO - love you! For source material, click HERE.

We’ll make out with you virtually as a thank you. And lastly, if you have a little Homotown murder you want to share with us, send it over to murder@homocidepodcast.com.

    EP 19. Open Water is Scary Enough | Richard Parker and Oba Chandler

    EP 19. Open Water is Scary Enough | Richard Parker and Oba Chandler

    95% of our ocean is unexplored. If that doesn’t make you sh*t your pants a little… we don’t know what will! There are so many “lost at sea” tales out there. But, what is it actually like to be lost at sea? How desperate would you actually get?
    Well, today we’ve have a special guest, Hillary Burtnett, Kevin’s long time friend from his high school years. As a member of the US Coast Guard, she’s got the inside scoop on atrocities at sea. Also…cheating husbands with their pants down on a boat? Get it together people! I’m looking at YOU, Florida Man.
    Kevin starts us off by taking us back in time to 1884, when a small crew set sail on the Mignonette, a small yacht that left out of the same port the Titanic would later leave from (bad juju, amiright?). Little did they know, this trip would turn them into cannibals! But these cannibals might actually be crowned “Cannibals with the Most Integrity,” because they admitted their crimes as soon as they were rescued. Slay!!!!... I suppose.
    Brandon then takes us to for a deep dive into darker waters. Thanks a lot, Brandon! Oba Chandler, an average looking Joe who came from a family of dairy farmers, used his boat for pure evil. Are we surprised that a white straight man with a boat is an awful human being? No! But we were a bit surprised to find out that he was caught... you'll see why!
    Moral of the story? Don’t get on a boat with a stranger! And maybe keep your pants on while you’re out there too. The ocean is way too convenient of a spot to dump a body. Go to the mountains instead! You can meet Kevin there.

    EP 18: F*ck Satan, Eat a Banana | Christa Pike and Moises Meraz-Espinoza | Homocide True Crime Podcast

    EP 18: F*ck Satan, Eat a Banana | Christa Pike and Moises Meraz-Espinoza | Homocide True Crime Podcast

    Satanic Panic - a phrase you may have heard a few times in the past. From people like Richard Ramirez to the Son of Sam, satanic murders are nothing rare... unfortunately. Today's episode is about two lesser-known teen killers who were inspired by Satan and had one thing in common... the urge to participate in a human sacrifice. Ew. Also... Not today, Satan!
    Starting us off, Brandon dives into the story of Christa Pike, a troubled teen with a trauma-filled past and some mental health issues. This story has its ups and downs and will leave you asking - why did you have to grab the meat cleaver?! Then Kevin finishes the episode with the shocking tale of Moises Meraz-Espinoza, an 18-year-old who took revenge on his mother, who happened not to like his choice in music. Well, that and his obsession with satanic rituals. Like... can we all agree some people shouldn't have access to the internet?

    EP 17: Welcome to Colorado | John Gilbert Graham and Alex Ewing | Homocide True Crime Podcast

    EP 17: Welcome to Colorado | John Gilbert Graham and Alex Ewing | Homocide True Crime Podcast

    Welcome to Colorado! From the vastness of the Rocky Mountains to the 300 days of annual sunshine, and the diverse cities to some of the most fu*ked-up murderers, this state has something for everyone. With stories like JonBenét Ramsy, Columbine High School, Tedd Bundy, and the Aurora Theater shooting, Kevin and Brandon found two stories that are just as awful.
    With perspective from our co-host Kevin, whose formative years were spent in various cities throughout the state, this week's episode is about two awful humans that took the lives of many, right in the heart of the West. Get ready for this insane episode, and forewarning, it contains the retelling of some traumatic sexual assaults and gory events.
    Kevin starts us off by diving into the story of a greedy, narcissistic man with severe mommy issues. John "Jack" Gilbert Graham, a hapless criminal and one of Colorado's worst mass murderers, is a dude who didn't get the memo that the song "It's Raining Men" was about delicious, sexy men raining down on you, fulfilling your ultimate gay naked fantasies. Instead, he thinks the song means something quite sinister. Stupid boy.
    Then Brandon dives into the story of a 12-day murderous rampage that would take over 30 years to convict a murderer who had no motive. The story of the Colorado Hammer Killer, Alex Ewing, is a fu*ked-up tale of a small man with weirdo tendencies and a lot of hatred. The moral of this story, friends... Lock. Your. Doors!

    EP 16: Forgetaboutit - New York City Murders | Joel Rifkin and Paul Bateson | Homocide True Crime Podcast

    EP 16: Forgetaboutit - New York City Murders | Joel Rifkin and Paul Bateson | Homocide True Crime Podcast

    New York, New York, what a helluva town! From the buildings that seem to touch the skies to the majestic Statue of Liberty, New York is known for so much. One of our favorites - the murders! This week we take a deep dive into the 2nd part of our New York Murders with some chilling stories based right in the heart of the Big Apple.
    CONTENT WARNING: dismemberment, torture, rape
    Brandon starts off the episode with a twisted tale of a killer who was accidentally caught by the police. That's right, accidentally caught! Who knew that a missing license plate on a crusty old truck would be the start of a 20-minute high-speed chase around Long Island? What the police weren't expecting when they apprehended the driver was the decomposing body in the bed of the truck. Sure, the police were gooped and gaged... like literally, we would have gaged over the smell emitting from the back end too.
    From here, we learn about the slaying of at least 17 sex workers by weirdo, Joel Rifkin. The moral of this story here kids... Don't be a bully. And if you are being bullied... maybe don't be a murderer!
    Kevin then tells the tale of a gay, narcissistic, alcoholic sociopath who felt like his one-night stand should have been a lifelong love affair. Like sir, you just met... When the well-known reporter in the gay community didn't reciprocate the odd "soul connection" with this dirtbag, all hell broke lose. Described as a gay murderer with a taste for more than a dingalong... or em' dingaling... this story will have you shook for days!
    Filled with BDSM, gay life in the 70's, a potential gay serial killer, and the general lack of police protection, the story of Paul Bateson will leave you speechless. Oh, and did we mention there is a weird tie-in with the 1973 hit movie, The Exorcist? Talk about your head spinning. Hopefully, this episode won't have you projectile vomiting!
