(20:30) - Asha Degree
(36:14) - Social Scammers

Welcome back to another episode of the True Crime Society Podcast.
In this episode, we discuss a few different cases:

It has been revealed that sports reporter Adan Manzano had Xanax in his system at the time of his death. The drug had not been prescribed to him.
February 26 marked the one year anniversary of the disappearance of Tennessee teen Sebastian Rogers.
There have been some new developments in the cold case of missing child Asha Degree. Asha has now been missing for over 25 years. We first covered Asha’s case in September 2024 so be sure to listen to that episode first. New search warrants have been executed. We have learned about some possibly incriminating text messages that were sent between the Dedmon family, who have been investigated in relation to the case. A witness has also alleged that Lizzie Dedmon confessed to killing Asha.
We also discuss two ‘Social Scammer’ cases. Amy Downs aka Slotmachinequeen allegedly took over $1m in donations for charities from her followers. She then deposited the money into her own accounts.
Marlena Valez is an influencer with over 400k followers on TikTok. In October 2024, Marlena filmed herself in a Target store. CCTV shows that she stole items at a self-checkout during that shopping trip. When police appealed for info, one of Marlena’s followers phoned in an anonymous tip, leading to her arrest.
