EP169: Baby Lollipops
On the morning of November 2, 1990, a Florida Power & Light crew was working on an electrical box located in a wealthy Miami Beach neighborhood. The neighborhood was known for its beachfront mansions, however, on this day, it would be known for something that would horrify the community. Tucked along the base of one of the mansion’s exterior walls was what the electrical worker first thought was a discarded lollipop wrapper. However, upon closer inspection, the worker was aghast to find the body of a very small child, wearing a t-shirt with three lollipops on the front. Soon, this child would be known as “Baby Lollipops” throughout southern Florida. Listen to this week’s episode to hear more about this tragic and shocking case.Join us on Facebook and IG: @HARDCORETRUECRIMEWeb: www.crimesandconsequences.com-------->Get ad-free early releases of each episode, plus over 170 exclusive Members Only episodes by going to Patreon.com/tntcrimes or joining our Apple Channel on the Apple Podcast App.Sources:1)Court Records 2) Book: True Crime Case Histories—Volume 9: 12 Disturbing True Crime Stories by Jason Neal3) Rolling Stone Article: https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/inside-brutal-baby-lollipops-murder-case-that-shook-south-florida-113594/ 4) Daily Mail Article: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5174495/3rd-trial-mom-Baby-Lollipops-killing-nearing-end.html 5) Local10.com Article: https://www.local10.com/news/2017/12/12/former-inmates-say-defendants-lover-confessed-to-killing-baby-lollipops-in-1990/ 6) The Sun Magazine Article: https://www.thesunmagazine.org/issues/431/baby-lollipops

EP167: 17 Dead in 17 Days
In 1973, Willie Steelman and Doug Gretzler met by chance. This meeting would end up being deadly for 17 people in Arizona and California that same year. During a 17-day span, Willie and Doug would kill acquaintances, strangers, and children all for what seemed to be just for the thrill. This spree killing would leave not only many dead behind, but dozens more traumatized over losing their friends or loved ones. Ultimately, what they did landed them on death row in Arizona, and neither of them saw another day of freedom after their sentencing.Join us on Facebook and IG: @HARDCORETRUECRIMEWeb: www.crimesandconsequences.com-------->Get ad-free early releases of each episode, plus over 170 exclusive Members Only episodes by going to Patreon.com/tntcrimes or joining our Apple Channel on the Apple Podcast App. Sources:1) Court Records2) Book--"Where Sadness Breathes: The True Story of Willie Steelman and Douglas Gretzler and the 17 People They Murdered in the Autumn of 1973" by Jack Earl3) Tucson.com: https://tucson.com/entertainment/books-and-literature/killing-spree-consumes-relative/article_c4d8b012-ea37-592b-8cdd-b6e91d0380fc.html4) Arizona Daily Star: https://www.newspapers.com/clip/32938363/arizona-daily-star/5) UPI.com: https://www.upi.com/Archives/1998/06/03/Admitted-killer-of-17-executed/6447896846400/6) Dreaming Casually Blog: https://dreamingcasuallypoetry.blogspot.com/2018/06/remembering-victor-murders-of-1973.html7: Douglas Gretzler's Murderpedia page

EP165: Deadly Neighbor
THANK YOU TO JOYCE D. WHO SUGGESTED THIS EPISODE!Ann Hoover bought her first home in 1995 in the Pittsburg, Pennsylvania neighborhood of South Oakland. This neighborhood was somewhere that needed a lot of TLC (tender loving care) and Ann, along with her neighbors, were excited to rehab the area. Everyone including Ann and her next-door neighbor, Roy Kirk, looked forward to the transformation and had wonderful and exciting plans for their neighborhood. However, when Roy started doing things to his home that damaged Ann's, Ann felt her only path to recouping her losses was to eventually go to court.Episode written by Terra Bella and edited by TonyaJoin us on Facebook and IG: @HARDCORETRUECRIMEWeb: www.crimesandconsequences.com-------->Get ad-free early releases of each episode, plus over 170 exclusive Members Only episodes by going to Patreon.com/tntcrimes or joining our Apple Channel on the Apple Podcast App. Sources:1) TV Show: Fear Thy Neighbor2) Medium: https://medium.com/crimebeat/the-horrific-house-dispute-that-ultimately-ended-in-tragedy-acf8f44fe1f3) The Cinemaholic: https://thecinemaholic.com/ann-hoover-murder-is-roy-kirk-dead-or-alive/4) Tampa Bay Times: https://www.tampabay.com/archive/1997/03/26/after-neighbor-is-dismembered-suspect-hangs-self-in-police-van/5) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0ZoLIK6-tE6) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbr6n4D1OIw
