What Happened to Cari Farver? An INSANE Stalking Case

The saga of the Murdaugh family is one that is almost too unbelievable to be true.   We first covered the case with a two-part episode in 2021.  We covered the deaths of Stephen Smith and the Murdaugh family housekeeper Gloria.  We also looked into Alex Murdaugh’s shady past, the tragic death of Mallory Beach following a drunken boat crash.  The Murdaugh family finally crumbled for good following the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh in June 2021. Alex Murdaugh has just gone to trial for the murders of his wife and their son and he has been found guilty. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the recent Murdaugh trial and we also run through a comprehensive timeline of what actually happened on the day of the murders.   If you’d like to skip straight to the crime content, please goto (8:28) Read our blog for this case - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2023/03/13/how-not-to-get-away-with-murdaugh/ This episode is sponsored by: ettitude - Imagine sleeping at your favorite hotel every night!  That's exactly what slipping into ettitude's sheets feels like.  Visit ettitude.com/tcs for $25 off your bedding order.

In this age of social media, it can be all too easy for a person to pretend to be someone they are not. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast we discuss the cases of social scammers – Liver King and Maddie Russo. Brian Johnson aka Liver Ling lives what he calls an “ancestral lifestyle”, which includes eating large amounts of raw organs and meat, and he recommends eating liver daily.  His businesses based on this ‘ethos’ are said to make around $100 m per year.  He vehemently denied taking any steroids to achieve his insane physique.  In December 2022, Liver King’s empire started to crumble.  He is now facing a $25m class action lawsuit after it was revealed that he was taking around $11,000 worth of steroids each month.  Maddie Russo was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer AND leukemia, at age 19.  Maddie seemed to be defying the odds after undergoing 15 rounds of oral chemo and 90 rounds of radiation.  Except, Maddie wasn’t sick at all.  Her lies became public in January 2023 after medical professionals became concerned about the legitimacy of photos that she posted of herself online.  When Maddie’s apartment was raided, police found wigs, cash and medication that did not belong to Maddie.  She had managed to scheme almost $40k from 439 donors.    No time stamp because the chat is mainly crime related :)   Read our blog for this case - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2023/03/05/social-scammers-liver-king-and-maddie-russo/ This episode is sponsored by Better Help!

Trigger warning for this episode – sexual assault.   Madison Brooks (19) loved spending time with her family and friends.  Her family have said she loved adventures and travel.   In the early hours of January 15, 2023 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Madison accepted a ride home from a bar with four males.  She seemed to be intoxicated according to CCTV and witness reports.  The story that these ‘men’ gave was that Madison consented to sex with two of them in the vehicle.  After they were done with her, they dropped her off on the side of the road.  Madison was killed shortly after this – she was struck by a vehicle. Investigation showed that Madison’s BAC was .319%.  According to University of Notre Dame research, a BAC of between .250 and .399 indicates alcohol poisoning and loss of consciousness.    This indicates that there is NO WAY Madison could have consented in that state.  Two of the males have now been charged with third-degree rape, and the additional two have been charged with a failure to intervene. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the death of Madison Brooks, as well as the murder of Valentina Trespalacios.  Colombian DJ Valentina Trespalacios (23) met American John Poulos on a dating app in 2022.  John abandoned his three children in America to move to Colombia.  The couple were seen on January 22, 2023 on CCTV, leaving a nightclub where Valentina had just finished a set at.  John was seen soon after putting a suitcase into his rental vehicle.    Hours later, a man came across the suitcase in a dumpster.  Valentina’s lifeless body had been shoved in the case, and her head was sticking out.  John was arrested soon after, while trying to flee the country.  His story was that the cartel were involved in Valentina’s death.  He has been charged with aggravated femicide, concealment, alteration and destruction of evidence.  John has told the court that he doesn’t feel safe in the Bogota jail and he has demanded additional security.   If you’d like to skip straight to the crime content, please goto (8:07) Read our blogs for these cases - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2023/02/01/valentina-trespalacios-was-murdered-and-her-body-dumped-in-a-suitcase/ https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2023/01/27/madison-brooks-assaulted-and-left-to-die/  This episode is sponsored by: BetterHelp – Betterhelp is a convenient, flexible and affordable option if you’re thinking of giving therapy a go.  Visit BetterHelp.com/society for 10% off your first month.

Massachusetts woman Ana Walshe attempted to contact her mother overseas in the early morning hours of January 1, 2023.  Her mother was sleeping and missed the call.  She now regrets that, because Ana vanished shortly after and is assumed to have been murdered by her husband Brian Walshe. Brian’s (alleged) audacity is actually unbelievable.  He didn’t even report his wife missing, her employer called the police.  Brian’s criminal history started long before Ana’s disappearance.  He allegedly stole Andy Warhol paintings and sold fake art.  He also broke into the home of his deceased father and stole vehicles and invaluable art – he also attempted to sell the property, despite having no claim to it. Brian told police that Ana had gone to Washington DC to deal with a work emergency.  Except, right around the time she vanished, he purchased $450 in cleaning supplies, including mops, buckets, tarps, Tyveks, drop cloths and various kinds of tape. At the store, he was seen wearing a black surgical mask, blue surgical gloves and made a cash purchase. Brian also allegedly conducted google searches including: - Ten ways to dispose of a dead body if you really need to - Dismemberment and the best ways to dispose of a body - Can you be charged with murder without a body - Can you identify a body with broken teeth - How to dispose of a 115 pound woman’s body Brian has now been charged with Ana’s murder.  It is not believed her remains have been found, due to the method in which he disposed of them.     If you would like to start straight at the case content, please skip to (7:22) Read our blog here - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2023/01/15/ana-walshe-is-missing-after-her-husband-googled-how-to-dispose-of-a-115-pound-womans-body/    In this episode, we also discuss items seized from alleged Moscow murderer Bryan Kohberger’s apartment.
