    One thing that never ceases to amaze me, in the worst possible way, is the price some people are willing to put on a human life. If you’re a regular listener, you already know – some people kill for a house, or custody of their children, or to retain their shares of a business. But sometimes there’s a concrete price on the line. Content Warnings: murder, infidelity. For Ad Free Content visit Patreon or Apple Subscription Sponsors: Feeling the need to pamper yourself?

    Kamp-Johnson Murders

    The Murder of Johnathan Willette

    In a court of law, you might assume that there’s a certain level of decorum that needs to be maintained by defendants, witnesses, and lawyers alike. Speaking clearly, respectfully, and not using profanity unless it’s strictly necessary for relaying past events or direct quotes. That sort of thing. Content Warnings: murder, desecration of a body, mentions of child abuse. For Ad Free Content visit Patreon or Apple Subscription Sponsors: Feeling the need to pamper yourself?

For anyone with half a heart, intentionally harming anyone we love is almost unthinkable.  More Info: The court document referenced can be found here: People v. Borizov  Content Warnings: murder, intimate partner violence, mentions of drug use and mental illness.

    True Crime Conversations: Feat Lanie Hobbs, Gillian Pensavalle & Alvin Williams

    From the outside, the world of true crime podcasting may seem small. Once you are in it, you realize how expansive, diverse, and deeply personal the landscape really is. In this special conversation, Lanie sits down with two standout creators in the genre: Gillian Pensavalle from ⁠True Crime Obsessed⁠ and Alvin Williams from ⁠Affirmative Murder.⁠ The three explore their individual journeys into podcasting, what inspired them, what keeps them going, and how their approaches, audiences, and storytelling styles differ while still sharing a commitment to intentional and ethical true crime storytelling. You will hear about the importance of community, the influence of personal backgrounds on the way we cover crime, and how authenticity becomes a bridge between creator and listener. Whether you are discovering these creators for the first time or have followed their work for years, this conversation offers a look behind the microphone and into the heart of what motivates us to tell these stories with care. If you enjoy this episode, check out True Crime Obsessed and Affirmative Murder, and let them know you first heard them on True Crime Cases with Lanie.

    The Zoloft Defense

    I’M BACK – Thank you so much for hanging in there with me, while I took some time away from the podcast rather unexpectedly. I miss my dad quite a bit, so coming back has been really daunting. If you read this far, thank you again for hanging out until I got it all together to come back to a place I’ve called ‘home’ for the last 10 years. I’m not done with TCCWL [probs will do this into my 70s! lol] You might remember this phrase from health class: “All medicines are drugs, but not all drugs are medicines.” It was a simple reminder that while there’s nothing wrong with needing medication, even the ones that sound intimidating, we have to be careful about what we take and how much. All medicines are drugs, and all drugs carry risks. Content Warnings: murder, prescription drug use, familicide, mentions of suicide.

    The Murder of Mike Sisco & Karen Harkness – Dana Chandler’s Trial

    It’s one of those trends you see a lot on social media – “post a photo of yourself five, ten, fifteen years ago, and a photo of you now!” If you’ve participated in that, you’ve probably felt the same way everyone else does – like that person existed an entire lifetime ago.  Content Warnings: murder, mistrials.
