Papi Killed Mommy15 Jun 2025

Letter from a friend: Laurie Swift

BONUS EPISODE: A Letter From a Friend

Before Papi Killed Mommy officially launches on July 9th, I wanted to give you the chance to meet the woman at the heart of this story — my mom, Stacy.

This bonus episode features a letter written by one of my mother's oldest and closest friends. In it, she shares vivid memories and heartfelt reflections that paint a picture of who my mom truly was — beyond the headlines, beyond the tragedy.

You'll hear stories about Stacy's warmth, her humor, her strength, and her love for her children. These are the memories that don't make it into crime reports or news coverage — the kind that come from years of friendship, laughter, and life shared.

This episode is raw and real. It's meant to honor my mom as a full person — not just a victim. You'll get to know her as the vibrant, complicated, beautiful soul she was.

If this touches you, please tune in when Papi Killed Mommy premieres on July 9th — exactly 32 years after the night I said goodnight to her for the last time.

This podcast is my way of reclaiming her story. It's a journey through truth, trauma, justice, and survival — and I'm inviting you to take it with me.

🐾✈️ Traveling to CrimeCon with my best friend, Dickie Birdie, comes with some unexpected expenses — his recent vet visit alone was $827. If you'd like to help make sure he's safe and comfy on this trip, I've put together a small Amazon Wishlist with his travel essentials (like a stroller, pop‑up kennel, and car seat). Every bit of support means the world. 💙
