    True Crime Tuesday of a Grave Obsession: Murder Suspect Chase Across States - Alexander Grunke

    True Crime Tuesday of a Grave Obsession: Murder Suspect Chase Across States - Alexander Grunke

    In this True Crime Tuesday episode of Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide, AI Jane takes the helm to dissect the case of Alexander Grunke—a story so twisted, it will leave you questioning the depths of this man's depravity.

    The tranquility of Lamont, Dubuque County, Iowa, is shattered when 32-year-old Tana Poppe is found lifeless, her two children missing, and her ex-lover, Alexander Grunke, embroiled in a web of violence and chaos. As the investigation unfurls, a high-speed chase, a tragic standoff, and a history of disturbing behavior are unveiled.

    AI Jane delves into the past of Grunke, revealing a man with a for harassment, and an incident of necrophilia that once made headlines. The case is compounded by a series of restraining orders, a suspected illicit relationship with a minor, and a mother's worst nightmare—losing her daughter to the influence of a man she deemed "bat shit crazy."

    Could the justice system's loopholes and a family's torment have been the catalyst for this tragic end? 

    Today's poll: Should necrophilia charges have been resolved in the first trial, without the need for higher court rulings?

    From Breakup to Breakdown: A Colorado Murder Spree - The Case of Daniel Sanchez

    From Breakup to Breakdown: A Colorado Murder Spree - The Case of Daniel Sanchez

    In this episode of Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide, AI Jane steps in to unravel the case of domestic abuse, murder, and self-destruction in Longmont, Colorado. At the center of this case is 25-year-old Beatrice Silva, a young woman whose attempt to escape a four-year cycle of fear and violence at the hands of her ex-boyfriend, Daniel Sanchez, ended in a night of bloodshed.

    At 4:13 am on December 18, 2012, a 911 call captures the final moments before Daniel Sanchez's rampage claimed four lives, including his own. With a detailed recount of the fateful encounter between Beatrice and Daniel in a Best Buy parking lot, AI Jane walks us through a series of events that culminated in an unthinkable act of violence.

    Despite Beatrice's brave efforts to break free and her subsequent report to the police, Daniel was released on bond, only to unleash his rage less than 24 hours later.

    If you are experiencing domestic violence, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233, or go to thehotline.org. All calls are toll-free and confidential. The hotline is available 24/7 in more than 170 languages.

    Poll Question: Do you think this could have been avoided if the police had taken the domestic abuse allegations more seriously and kept Daniel in jail a lot longer?

    Also, bonus question: tell me your thoughts on the 911 operator.

    Also, at the end of this episode, AI Jane gives an update on Ky's situation.

    Florida Man Friday - 23-Year-Old Woman Posed as a 14 Year Old to Molest Kids - Alyssa Zinger

    Florida Man Friday - 23-Year-Old Woman Posed as a 14 Year Old to Molest Kids - Alyssa Zinger

    In today's Florida Man Friday installment of Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide, we uncover the mindboggling actions of 23-year-old Alyssa Ann Zinger. With the guise of a 14-year-old girl, Alyssa infiltrated the lives of unsuspecting minors, leading to a series of deplorable crimes with lots of minors.

    Alyssa's calculated deception began on Snapchat, where messages vanish, allowing her to prey on children with disturbing ease. Her initial arrest in November 2023 for engaging in over 30 sexual acts with a student and distributing explicit materials was only the tip of the iceberg. As the investigation unfolded, the depth of her manipulation became clear, with multiple victims from Wilson Middle School in Tampa falling prey to her plot.

    The Tampa Police Department's discovery that Alyssa had posed as a homeschooled teen to gain the trust of her victims adds a layer of horror to her actions. When caught shoplifting, her attempt to maintain her false identity crumbled, unraveling a year-long police investigation and leading to her arrest on multiple counts of lewd and lascivious conduct.

    Join me as we delve into the psyche of a predator who exploited the innocence of youth and the legal system's response to such heinous acts.

    In today's poll, we ask: Should Alyssa Zinger have been denied bail from the outset, given the severity of her alleged crimes?

    Midweek Mini - Former Killeen Army Capt Jailed for an Ambush Shooting Murder - Adrianna Veal

    Midweek Mini - Former Killeen Army Capt Jailed for an Ambush Shooting Murder - Adrianna Veal

    In this midweek episode of Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide, we take a journey into the life of former Army Captain Adrianna Jean Veal who, one day lost it, and ambushed her Ex boyfriend and attempted murder.

    In Killeen, Texas, police discover a man shot in the chest. The investigation quickly spirals into the unexpected when the perpetrator, Adrianna Veal, is captured. With a history of service and a looming promotion to Major, Adrianna's life is a stark contrast to the crime she commits against Timothy Custer, her on-and-off boyfriend and a dedicated Army Chief Warrant Officer.

    Adrianna's calculated break-in and subsequent attack, carried out with a stolen gun and a hammer, reveal a premeditated attempt to end a life. As the courtroom drama ensues, we hear the victim's account and delve into the mind of a woman whose academic accolades and military rank could not shield her from the grip of violent passion.

    The defense paints a picture of a commendable life marred by a few fatal minutes, while the prosecution demands justice for a crime that not only endangered a life but sought to tarnish a reputation with false accusations.

    Poll: Should Adriana Veal have been granted probation based on her background, or was the life sentence proposed by the prosecution more fitting for her crime?

    True Crime Tuesday - Vegas Man Caught with Severed Head Claims It's Not His - Eric Holland

    True Crime Tuesday - Vegas Man Caught with Severed Head Claims It's Not His - Eric Holland

    In today's True Crime Tuesday episode of Love and Murder, we go through the case of Eric Holland, a man whose run from the law is a scene straight from a movie.

    As the Las Vegas police chase a Toyota Tundra with a suspended registration, little do they know that this pursuit will unearth a macabre discovery. The driver, 57-year-old Eric Holland, attempts a cinematic escape, swapping vehicles in a desperate bid for freedom. But his choice of a conspicuous gold Chevy Avalanche proves to be his undoing.

    The standoff that ensues is a bizarre spectacle, with Holland hurling random objects at officers before being subdued by a taser. But the real shock comes when the police uncover a severed human head and dismembered body parts stashed in coolers in the bed of the truck.

    The victim, identified as Richard P. Miller, had been brutally shot and dismembered, with evidence suggesting a personal connection between him and Holland. Despite initial claims of innocence and theories of being a "hapless car thief," Holland's tangled web of lies begins to unravel, exposing a history of criminality and a shocking plea deal confession.

    As we delve into the layers of this case, we're left wondering of Holland's thought process and mourning the tragic loss felt by Miller's family.

    When you're done listening, share your thoughts in our poll: Did you initially believe Eric Holland was innocent, or did you suspect his guilt from the start?

Murder & Mimosas ,

LOVE is the first word for a reason

It seems fitting that the name of this podcast starts with Love because I LOVE it. I stumbled on a recent-ish episode that was a raw rant and agreed with many of the sentiments. That made me decide to listen to more episodes!

Jersey Girl in Vermont ,

Really,really good!

Just discovered and I’am here to stay. Very good stories and the host is excellent. She has a charming way of keeping you interested from beginning to end.

CJIam12 ,

Great!

I love this show! If true crime is your thang, listen to Love and Murder! It’s detailed and the utmost care is taken when discussing the victims
