    Heather Claypool is sleeping. It’s early morning hours. A small creak stirs her. Between squinted eyes she scans the side of her bed. It was probably someone downstairs. She lived in an apartment. Heather drifts back to sleep. Another creak. She sits up. There is a man crouched at the end of your bed.

    111: Richard Henyard - The Empty Man

    Around 10 p.m. on January 30, 1993, Lynette Tschida went to the Winn Dixie store in Eustis, Florida. It was at the Grove Square Shopping Center in Lake County. She saw a young man and a teenage boy sitting on a bench near the entrance of the store.
    As she walked in the store, she noticed how intense the older one was. He was tall, muscular. His smooth, but dark skin and handsome features betrayed by a scowl. He watched Lynette enter the store and she felt his eyes on her back as the automatic doors slid shut.

    Her mother told her that her bed was freshly made with clean sheets. If Bresenia wanted to sleep with the puppy, then it needed to be in the living room. It was an easy choice. Raul Flores and Gina Marie Gonzalez, his wife, are sleeping in their bed.
    It’s 1AM in the morning when someone knocks on their door.

Episode 98

As usual, excellent episode! I feel the way you do…Tony had true remorse…rare with psychopaths..

I feel 15 years is light…but like you said, he already did 15, and I agree the next 15 may be easier for him.

This was a rare case of guilt and remorse, for sure! Thanks so much!

3rd time not a charm!

This is my third time subscribing and being disappointed and cancelling. The host used to put way to much of his own opinions in. Now, he spends 10 minutes repeatedly doing disclaimers reminding people that he DOESN'T do that. The episodes are also now shorter. The actual episode is 90 percent 911 calls, audio of other people's livestreams and background music and sounds. I was hoping after a year, there would be a ton of new content...there wasn't. Lastly I think the price is too high. I wouldn't be surprised the creator of Sword and Scale gave this creator some bad $$ advice. Not for me.
