The Case of Phoenix Sinclair

The Case of Phoenix Sinclair

This week, Drewby and Yergy head north of the border to Manitoba, Canada, to discuss one of the most notorious CPS failures in the country's history, and that is the case of 5 year old Phoenix Sinclair. Phoenix was murdered by her mother, Samantha Kematch, and her stepfather, Karl "Wes" McKay, despite CPS receiving 13 complaints about the little girl being abused, starved, and neglected. Her death lead to what was known as the "Inquiry into the Circumstances Surrounding the Death of Phoenix Sinclair." It was one of the largest public inquiries ever held in Manitoba, examining the glaring holes in the child welfare system.

The Case of Ghislaine Maxwell

The Case of Ghislaine Maxwell

She was born into wealth, luxury, and power… But behind the diamonds and designer clothes lurked something truly sinister. Ghislaine Maxwell wasn’t just Epstein’s confidante... She was his enabler, his hunter, and his partner in one of the darkest sex trafficking rings in modern history.In this video, we expose the chilling double life of the so-called “socialite of sin.” From high-society parties to private jets, Maxwell used her charm, influence, and money to lure vulnerable girls into Epstein’s web of abuse. She wasn’t just an accomplice... She was a predator hiding in plain sight.Support Our Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Our Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials:https://www.facebook.com/victimsrefusesilence/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia_Giuffrehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mar-a-Lagohttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-53268218https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/07/the-fall-of-ghislaine-maxwellhttps://www.courtlistener.com/https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/article221404845.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/02/nyregion/ghislaine-maxwell-arrested.htmlhttps://www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey-epstein-little-st-james-island/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/epstein-island-jeffrey-sex-crimes-b1851226.htmlhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-03/epstein-s-private-islands-in-virgin-islands-sell-for-60-millionhttps://www.reuters.com/legal/ghislaine-maxwell-appeals-conviction-sentence-sex-trafficking-case-2023-07-11/https://people.com/virginia-giuffre-family-speaks-out-about-her-suicide-at-41-exclusive-11722711https://www.instagram.com/p/DH0vvDKzDvu/https://www.speakoutactreclaim.org/https://nypost.com/2025/04/26/world-news/jeffrey-epstein-victim-virginia-giuffre-wrote-she-was-not-suicidal/https://x.com/VRSVirginiahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yURAdqdvb0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLBje7Fiwv4“Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich” (Netflix, 2020)“Surviving Jeffrey Epstein” (Lifetime, 2020)“House of Maxwell” (BBC documentary series, 2022)“Fall: The Mystery of Robert Maxwell” by John Preston

The Case of Hershall Creachbaum Jr.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head back to Ohio to discuss the case of Hershall Creachbaum Jr, a young boy with cerebral palsy who was beaten to death by his drunken stepfather. But the horror didn’t end there... In a desperate attempt to cover up the murder, the man staged a fake kidnapping and fed investigators a twisted lie. Even more disturbing? CPS had been warned. Reports were made. The bruises were visible. But no one acted.Support Our Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Our Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials:https://www.newsobserver.com/news/nation-world/national/article310779555.htmlhttps://www.daytondailynews.com/local/mothers-boyfriend-had-history-of-domestic-violence-charges-before-7-year-old-reported-dead/2ROUL2PETZGX7B4UGKMPPMTXF4/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/crime/autistic-boy-kidnap-death-dayton-ohio-b2790457.htmlhttps://www.daytondailynews.com/local/they-wont-help-us-school-staff-called-children-services-multiple-times-before-boys-death-per-911-calls/CSLIE4OVKVE4PFE7K5TFGSO7UA/https://www.facebook.com/trevor.leet.1/posts/-the-heartbreaking-homicide-of-7-year-old-hershall-creachbaum-jrin-the-early-mor/4017868111762508/https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/wont-help-us-school-staff-140500214.htmlhttps://www.wlwt.com/article/hershall-creachbaum-remains-death-dayton-ashley-johnson/65488010https://spectrumnews1.com/oh/columbus/news/2025/07/18/community-members-honor-life-of-hershall-creachbaum-https://www.facebook.com/groups/1646577629368815https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-eLXV2_uKohttps://www.wdtn.com/news/hershall-creachbaum/defendant-in-7-year-olds-death-case-seeks-record-restriction/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook_WDTN-TV&fbclid=IwY2xjawMDEydleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHilXP3SLVJQMTm9YCeWJAPpTiuDrZVnj9b9Qzka5YCvNeGcVfuaidLRokh8k_aem_vG40r6PRFV5KmRdPvy37Vghttps://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-2923.13https://www.facebook.com/michael.kendrick.1238292https://www.facebook.com/ashley.johnson.980052https://www.facebook.com/hurshiie.dvbosshttps://www.facebook.com/missy.creachbaumhttps://www.facebook.com/hurshiie.dvbevst

The Case of Melony Rose Granados

The Case of Melony Rose Granados

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Arizona, to discuss the case of Melony Rose Granados, a young girl who lived with her mother, grandmother, and 4 other siblings in a small townhome in Tempe. Melony was born with myoclonic atonic epilepsy and was developmentally delayed. It's said that she had the mental capacity of a 3-year-old. However, when her grandmother, 55-year-old Virginia Lujan couldn't handle Melony's special needs, rather than reach out for help, she allegedly caged her granddaughter... and let her slowly die in her own filth.Support Our Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Our Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials:https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laneur/article/PIIS1474-4422(25)00032-8/abstracthttps://www.google.com/search?q=myoclonic+atonic+epilepsy&rlz=1C1VIQF_enUS1084US1084&oq=Myoclonic+atonic+epilepsy&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgAEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyBwgBEAAYgAQyBwgCEAAYgAQyCAgDEAAYFhgeMggIBBAAGBYYHjIICAUQABgWGB4yCAgGEAAYFhgeMggIBxAAGBYYHjIICAgQABgWGB4yCAgJEAAYFhge0gEHNDg5ajBqNKgCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8https://disability-memorial.org/melony-granadoshttps://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/grandmother-charged-in-disabled-teen-s-death-after-13-year-old-was-kept-in-a-cage/ar-AA1xRy0Shttps://scallywagandvagabond.com/2025/01/13-year-old-az-girl-kept-in-cage-grandmother-mom-virginia-lujan-jami-hodges-arrested-after-she-dies/?fbclid=IwY2xjawL7HxRleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHi4-tTm-OgLauTMS7kCGwaUTb2kZTLIOyDpvt2QpOUDmm7GhbhhekRrK8WnU_aem_AoheXDqiBgIVeZ-DmFOU2Qhttps://www.google.com/maps/place/E+Carter+Dr+%26+S+Mill+Ave,+Tempe,+AZ+85282/@33.3838971,-111.942326,17.53z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x872b061d59afd5fb:0x1494c8328ce3461!8m2!3d33.3832805!4d-111.9394486!16s%2Fg%2F11f342f7ql?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDczMC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3Dhttps://www.fresnobee.com/news/nation-world/national/article299035885.htmlhttps://www.tempe.gov/Home/Components/News/News/18132/1546https://www.facebook.com/jami1416https://www.facebook.com/jami.hodges.5/https://littlethings.com/lifestyle/grandmother-charged-disabled-teens-death-cage-arizonahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwWgscF8IYAhttps://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/tempe/2025/01/25/tempe-girl-13-died-grandmother-is-now-a-suspect-here-is-what-we-know/77931211007/https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/tempe/2025/01/25/tempe-girl-13-died-grandmother-is-now-a-suspect-here-is-what-we-know/77931211007/https://www.instagram.com/reel/DFMQ6VuNYkd/https://www.facebook.com/groups/661671761602462/posts/1241884413581191/https://www.tempenews.com/news/tempe-grandmother-indicted-in-caged-teen-s-death/article_13835b46-e5aa-11ef-b858-2f2261e1da4c.htmlhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/grandmother-indicted-granddaughter-found-grossly-130329514.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAND4w6r7_1Viuz5CYtp0yRhiVvdSO82Lz9oWWxvWqKs4iqnUDNzOb9oaSCCCUrj6VUkZjnmlD_KyJ_MTm3msXAEF4dq9thmLcC94PoPJWuNeQ5WV2hWs18ILbDTdAFjD4L3kTVhulCnOQdFlWp301fZa3BRW5dSlwisddwNhuyEihttps://www.ahwatukee.com/news/police-probe-caged-tempe-teen-s-death/article_f51454fc-dd03-11ef-99af-0b87d1eb2efa.htmlhttps://maricopacountyattorney.org/DocumentCenter/View/3682/Virginia-Lujan-Indictmenthttps://maricopacountyattorney.org/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=1161https://www.the-sun.com/news/13372620/disabled-girl-abused-death-forced-live-makeshift-caged-bed/https://www.abc15.com/news/crime/mother-grandmother-arrested-in-connection-to-death-of-13-year-old-girlhttps://www.fox10phoenix.com/news/court-docs-reveal-new-details-deadly-tempe-child-abuse-case-crime-fileshttps://www.azleg.gov/ars/13/03612.htmhttps://maricopacountyattorney.org/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=1161

This week, we’re going to be discussing two unique cases that took place over 1700 miles apart. But as unique as they are, they both share a shocking similarity... Mom decided that the best place for their baby was a dumpster. The saddest part? This happens more often then you might think.Support Our Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Our Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials:⁠https://www.gofundme.com/f/mateo-harding⁠⁠https://www.reddit.com/r/CasesWeFollow/comments/1dz6v1g/letter_to_esperanza_harding_who_murdered_his_poor/⁠⁠https://jailroster.hennepin.us/⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086570684819⁠⁠https://lawandcrime.com/crime/about-to-do-something-bad-boyfriend-who-told-killer-mom-to-prove-he-was-the-top-priority-before-she-drowned-infant-in-bathtub-and-threw-him-in-dumpster-learns-fate/⁠⁠https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24474672-esperanza-rae-harding/⁠⁠https://www.hennepinattorney.org/news/news/2025/May/trudeau-sentencing⁠⁠https://www.hennepinattorney.org/news/news/2025/March/harding-sentencing⁠⁠https://www.childrensmn.org/⁠⁠https://www.fox10tv.com/2024/03/13/woman-accused-drowning-baby-hotel-tub-because-she-couldnt-enjoy-her-bath/⁠⁠https://kstp.com/kstp-news/top-news/loved-ones-grieve-baby-who-was-allegedly-drowned-by-mother-discarded-in-dumpster/⁠⁠https://lawandcrime.com/crime/about-to-do-something-bad-boyfriend-who-told-killer-mom-to-prove-he-was-the-top-priority-before-she-drowned-infant-in-bathtub-and-threw-him-in-dumpster-learns-fate/⁠⁠https://lawandcrime.com/crime/woman-and-her-boyfriend-had-sex-in-another-room-after-she-drowned-her-infant-son-police/⁠⁠https://websleuths.com/threads/mn-woman-drowns-7-month-old-baby-for-interrupting-her-bath-discards-body-in-dumpster-march-9-2024.706905/⁠⁠https://kstp.com/kstp-news/top-news/woman-sentenced-to-32-years-for-drowning-infant-son/⁠⁠https://www.fox9.com/news/mother-drowned-baby-bathtub-bloomington-hotel-sentenced⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaTwf9ou1kA⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbBtj4tPhJY⁠⁠https://www.startribune.com/woman-sentenced-for-drowning-her-child-in-hotel-leaving-in-landfill/601233557⁠⁠https://abcnews.go.com/US/video/maintenance-worker-calls-911-finding-baby-dumpster-64114671⁠⁠https://phr.org/our-work/resources/delayed-and-denied-floridas-six-week-abortion-ban/#:~:text=This%20ban%20shifted%20the%20legal,2024%20ballot%20for%20voters'%20consideration⁠.⁠https://www.fox4news.com/news/florida-mother-arrested-for-abandoning-newborn-in-dumpster-deputies-say⁠⁠https://abc13.com/post/mom-accused-of-tossing-newborn-in-florida-dumpster/5296382/⁠⁠https://www.scribd.com/document/409453648/Mother-arrested-for-putting-baby-in-dumpster#download⁠⁠https://cbsaustin.com/news/nation-world/deputies-say-mom-admitted-to-throwing-newborn-in-dumpster⁠⁠https://www.wptv.com/news/region-c-palm-beach-county/judge-confession-may-be-used-against-palm-beach-county-mother-accused-of-dumping-baby⁠⁠https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/news/crime/2019/05/11/why-didnt-she-tell-me-dad-of-abandoned-baby-devastated-stunned/5179283007/⁠⁠https://www3.pbso.org/blotter/index.cfm?nor=1⁠⁠https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/news/crime/2019/05/11/why-didnt-she-tell-me-dad-of-abandoned-baby-devastated-stunned/5179283007/⁠⁠https://www.wptv.com/news/palm-beach-county/region-s-palm-beach-county/mother-who-tossed-newborn-baby-girl-in-suburban-boca-raton-dumpster-pleads-guilty⁠

The Case of Kaylea Louise Titford

The Case of Kaylea Louise Titford

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Wales to discuss the case of 16-year-old Kaylea Titford, a teenage girl living with spina bifida. Kaylea was an active young woman who had dreams of one day becoming a Paralympian. That was until the pandemic took place, and Kaylea stopped receiving the medical care that she so desperately needed.

The Case of Marlen Ochoa Lopez & Yovanny Lopez

This week, Drewby and Yergy travel to Chicago to discuss the case of Marlen Ochoa Lopez, a young mother who was about to give birth to her second child. That was until she met Clarisa Figueroa in a local Facebook Group for moms. Under the guise of providing Marlen with some gently used baby clothes, Clarisa lured the expectant mother to her home where she and her daughter, Desiree, murdered Marlen and cut her newborn from her womb.Support Our Patreon: ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine⁠⁠PayPal: ⁠⁠https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine⁠⁠Join Our Facebook Group: ⁠⁠https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1⁠⁠Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: ⁠⁠https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM⁠⁠#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials:https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/chicago-woman-gets-30-years-for-helping-mother-kill-pregnant-teen-who-had-child-cut-from-her-womb/3450810/?amp=1https://www.chicagotribune.com/2019/06/26/marlen-ochoa-lopez-timeline-of-the-tragedy/https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/04/16/woman-sentenced-to-50-years-in-prison-for-killing-pregnant-teen-removing-baby-from-womb/https://www.chicagotribune.com/2023/01/23/boyfriend-of-woman-accused-of-strangling-marlen-ochoa-lopez-and-cutting-baby-out-of-womb-sentenced-to-4-years-in-prison/https://www.kcci.com/article/man-grieves-daughters-death-grandchild-being-cut-from-womb-in-heinous-crime/27547302https://abc7chicago.com/amp/post/clarisa-figueroa-sentenced-to-50-years-in-prison-for-pregnant-woman-marlen-ochoa-lopezs-murder-whose-baby-was-cut-from-womb/14676286/https://wgntv.com/news/chicago-news/woman-accused-in-killing-of-marlen-ochoa-lopez-sentenced-to-50-years/amp/https://blockclubchicago.org/2020/04/24/one-year-later-family-of-murdered-pregnant-teen-marlen-ochoa-lopez-still-waiting-for-justice/https://news.wttw.com/tags/marlen-ochoa-lopezhttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-48314859.amphttps://www.fox32chicago.com/news/baby-of-slain-teen-marlen-ochoa-lopez-dies-after-weeks-on-life-support#:~:text=Family%20spokeswoman%20Julie%20Contreras%C2%A0confirmed%20a,Medical%20Center%20in%20Oak%20Lawnhttps://hue.crc.nd.edu/pilsen/murals/memorial-for-marlen-ochoa-lopez-and-her-baby/https://patch.com/illinois/chicago/killer-who-cut-baby-teens-womb-gets-50-years-reportshttps://www.chicagotribune.com/2019/07/31/you-feel-powerless-marlen-ochoa-lopezs-parents-talk-about-their-panic-despair-and-grief-as-they-searched-in-vain-for-the-pregnant-teen/https://chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2019/6/3/18651006/marlen-ochoa-lopez-murder-piotr-bobak?utm_campaign=ChicagoSunTimes&utm_content=1559599500&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwY2xjawLkp4lleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHnJA0EJwL8Cnf1gkrb8DuNXN8caVOCDAKb3_H9GNLjVITGGrVEoGEmo00nsv_aem_wbPbVnvwYoz8-dQxFDzdLQhttps://www.facebook.com/marelin.perez.3https://www.facebook.com/marly0cHoAhttps://www.facebook.com/arnulfo.ochoa3https://www.facebook.com/yobaniisrael.lopezcolungahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggEQRQsUKXQ
