This week, Drewby and Yergy travel to Hawai'i to discuss the case of Ariel Sellers, also known as Isabella Kalua in the media. Little Ariel was born on the island of Oahu in the small township of Waimanalo, just outside of Honolulu, to parents Melanie Joseph and Adam Sellers. She and her siblings had been taken in by Child Protective Services due to her parent's issues with substance use, and in 2019, was placed in the home of Isaac and Lehua Kalua. In all, the Kalua's ended up with 4 of Melanie and Adam's children in total... which was a huge mistake. On September 23, 2021, Ariel was reported missing by her adoptive mother, however, things quickly didn't add up. After authorities spoke with Ariel's older sister, things began to look grim, and the police suspected foul play. As of the date of release in August of 2024, Ariel Sellers is STILL missing.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.facebook.com/melanie.josephsellers.9 https://www.facebook.com/mommii.mellii.143 https://www.facebook.com/MoMMiiMeLLii https://www.facebook.com/HGIH808 https://www.civilbeat.org/2024/05/a-working-group-that-emerged-from-a-tragedy-sets-out-to-reform-child-welfare-services/ https://www.staradvertiser.com/2024/01/06/hawaii-news/bail-denied-for-adoptive-father-in-murder-of-6-year-old-girl/ https://www.khon2.com/local-news/hearing-to-unseal-adoption-foster-care-documents-in-isabella-kalua-case-set/ https://www.businessinsider.com/isaac-kalua-felonies-filed-for-bankruptcy-ahead-of-adoption-2021-11#:~:text=Isaac%20Kalua%20%E2%80%94%20who%20was%20charged,for%20bankruptcy%20in%20June%202020&text=Isaac%20and%20Lehua%20Kalua%20were,death%20of%20their%20adopted%20daughter https://www.civilbeat.org/2023/08/state-failed-to-heed-warnings-of-waimanalo-girls-abuse-lawsuit-alleges/ https://www.civilbeat.org/2023/08/a-hawaii-mother-haunted-by-the-brutal-killing-of-one-child-tries-to-hold-onto-another/ https://abcnews.go.com/US/missing-hawaii-girls-adoptive-parents-arrested-charged-murder/story?id=81108634 https://www.staradvertiser.com/2021/11/23/hawaii-news/abuse-reported-years-before-isabella-kaluas-death/ https://www.khon2.com/local-news/family-friends-waimanalo-community-hold-vigil-for-isabella-kalua-after-adoptive-parents-arrested-for-alleged-murder/?ipid=promo-link-block1 https://www.khon2.com/local-news/couple-charged-with-murdering-adopted-daughter-expected-in-court-as-waimanalo-memorial-for-ariel-grows/ https://www.khon2.com/local-news/where-is-she-a-year-after-isabella-kaluas-disappearance/ https://www.civilbeat.org/beat/trial-of-couple-accused-of-killing-waimanalo-girl-is-postponed/

This week, Drewby and Yergy head over to Boulder, Colorado, to discuss the case of Jason Midyette, a two and a half month old baby boy who was born into a well to do local family. On February 23, 2006, Jason was rushed to his pediatrician, Dr. Jill Siegfried, after he was described as “out of it, lethargic, stiffening his arms and legs, moaning and just not feeling well.” After being transferred to Boulder Community Hospital Foothills, it was found that baby Jason had a skull fracture, mixed chronic and acute subdural hematomas, and a complete loss of gray-white interface involving the cerebrum.  X-rays taken revealed a number of fractures in various stages of healing.  These fractures included the left parietal skull, right clavicle, left forearm, corner fractures of both femurs, and fractures on both ends of the left tibia.  Jason had a total of 30 broken bones to his body, in various stages of healing. The sweet little boy who should have lead a happy an healthy life, passed away on March 3, 2006.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Iowa to discuss the case of Gracie Buss who fell victim to one of the most common monsters that we've seen on this show... Mom's new boyfriend. Gracie, her brother, and her mother - the barely literate Kristi Buss - lived in a duplex is Waterloo back in 2014, when Chad Allen Little came into the family's life. Around this same time, Gracie kept suffering injuries, which Chad attributed to seizures and "falls down the stairs." In the early morning hours of May 30th, 2015, Gracie suffered another such mysterious injury. After several hours, she  was rushed by ambulance to Covenant Medical Center. However, Gracie’s injuries were so extensive that he transferred her to the pediatric intensive care unit at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, where she was placed on life support. Three days after she arrived at the ICU, Gracie was taken off life support and passed away. Her organs were donated to children in need.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://law.justia.com/cases/iowa/court-of-appeals/2021/19-1062.html https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/crime-and-courts/2019/08/09/waterloo-kristi-amber-buss-pleads-guilty-sentenced-4-year-old-daughter-gracie-buss-may-2015-death/1973829001 https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/147422228/gracie-vernell-buss https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/147422228/gracie_vernell-buss/photo https://www.news8000.com/news/crime/iowa-man-convicted-of-murder-in-death-of-4-year-old-girl/article_0675a174-3e80-56bf-b8a0-1abed18df67e.html https://www.kcrg.com/content/news/Waterloo-man-gets-life-for-killing-girlfriends-daughter-511475422.html https://www.facebook.com/KWWL7/posts/4-year-old-gracie-buss-was-found-unconscious-in-her-waterloo-home-in-may-2015-gr/10154960446531528/ https://disability-memorial.org/gracie-buss https://www.kcrg.com/content/news/Waterloo-woman-pleads-guilty-in-4-year-old-daughters-death-531028091.html https://www.news8000.com/news/crime/trial-delayed-for-couple-charged-in-4-year-old-s-death/article_67b133a4-0910-5881-8d4a-a04bfa87b7eb.html https://www.radioiowa.com/2015/06/04/waterloo-residents-raising-funds-for-young-girls-funeral/ https://www.kcci.com/article/4-year-old-girl-found-unresponsive-has-now-died/6907887 https://www.kwwl.com/news/chad-little-motions-for-new-trial/article_1c3bd846-9d60-5191-bf4a-3f3504391297.html https://www.nhregister.com/texas/article/Waterloo-man-charged-with-death-of-4-year-old-girl-10023548.php https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/crime-and-courts/2019/06/18/waterloo-murder-trial-iowa-man-gets-life-killing-girlfriends-daughter/1491788001/ https://www.kwwl.com/news/jury-selection-starts-for-trial-of-waterloo-man-accused-of-killing-4-year-old-gracie/article_fdc94513-1d5f-5781-8aec-1f5cd689c277.html https://www.kwwl.com/news/autopsy-photos-show-numerous-injuries-on-4-year-old-s-body-in-murder-trial/article_7f49fe3f-7122-50d7-af26-414bdaca632d.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AB2I9IYtmQ https://www.facebook.com/kristi.buss.98 https://www.facebook.com/kristi.buss.3 https://www.facebook.com/chad.little.963 https://www.kcrg.com/content/news/Waterloo-woman-pleads-guilty-in-4-year-old-daughters-death-531028091.html https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?ref=watch_permalink&v=815258638845452 https://www.facebook.com/KWWL7/videos/815258638845452 https://doc-search.iowa.gov/Offender/Search https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=744535471008484&set=a.744544754340889 https://www.gofundme.com/f/vzjch9s https://www.radioiowa.com/2015/06/04/waterloo-residents-raising-funds-for-young-girls-funeral/

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Columbus, Ohio to discuss a highly requested story, and that is the case of Darnell Taylor. Darnell was a sweet toddler who was placed in the care of his grandparents after his mother, Latitia Taylor, made concerning comments following a 911 call that made police believe that she was a danger to herself and her son. Soon, Darnell's grandparents found that taking care of a rambunctious little boy was just too much for them, and called on family friend, Pammy Maye, to look after the little boy. As the family had known Pammy for 42 year, they thought this was going to be a great fit for everyone... However, Darnell's placement with Pammy ended up having dire consequences...  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.wtap.com/video/2024/02/16/graphic-911-call-audio-pammy-mayes-husband-calling-police/ https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/missing-persons/amber-alert-issued-after-foster-mom-alleged-she-harmed-her-5-year-old-foster-child https://www.10tv.com/article/news/local/darnell-taylor-taken-children-services-after-2022-incident-biological-mom-report-shows/530-34b81806-3a7f-48b2-adb8-f6d3085db862 https://www.10tv.com/article/news/local/biological-family-of-darnell-taylor-worried-for-his-safety/530-e1855c89-eda5-422b-b4f6-cc9722a5154b https://www.10tv.com/article/news/local/ohio-amber-alert-darnell-taylor-pammy-maye/530-8b8c3da9-614c-4ab7-92ab-cd2d38743550 https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/local/ohio/ohio-amber-alert-darnell-taylor-columbus/95-e1cdaad8-0bf5-4adc-9f5c-6616f293e0f7 https://www.10tv.com/article/news/local/biological-family-of-darnell-taylor-worried-for-his-safety/530-e1855c89-eda5-422b-b4f6-cc9722a5154b https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaN1-d5nVLs https://abcnews.go.com/US/missing-ohio-5-year-darnell-taylor-found-dead/story?id=107288327 https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?ref=watch_permalink&v=697287685909049 https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/state/2024/02/15/darnell-taylor-kidnapping-what-we-know-about-the-missing-5-year-old/72612250007/ https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/columbus/boy-found-dead-after-amber-alert-was-removed-from-mothers-home-after-being-left-outside-alone/ https://www.cleveland19.com/2024/02/16/timeline-what-we-know-after-columbus-amber-alert-ends-death-5-year-old/   https://www.cleveland19.com/2024/02/18/find-justice-my-grandson-grandmother-murdered-5-year-old-wants-answers-after-amber-alert/ https://www.29news.com/2024/02/18/you-threw-him-out-sewage-5-year-old-boy-allegedly-murdered-by-foster-mother/ https://myfox28columbus.com/news/local/south-columbus-pays-tribute-memorial-grows-at-drain-site-where-young-boys-body-found https://myfox28columbus.com/news/local/gallery/south-columbus-pays-tribute-memorial-grows-at-drain-site-where-young-boys-body-found?photo=4 https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/2024/02/21/what-we-know-and-dont-know-darnell-taylor-pammy-maye-investigation-columbus-ohio-amber-alert/72640549007/ https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/crime/2024/02/27/woman-accused-suffocating-5-year-old-amber-alert-pammy-maye-darnell-taylor-ohio-columbus/72761659007/ https://www.10tv.com/article/news/crime/columbus-woman-accused-killing-5-year-old-boy-extradited-to-franklin-county-jail/530-76587aca-e434-4f3b-ab0d-be7da9e30554 https://www.insideedition.com/pammy-maye-foster-mom-murder-sewer-darnell-taylor https://myfox28columbus.com/news/local/ohio-state-highway-patrol-issues-amber-alert-darnell-taylor https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/columbus/twins-who-grew-up-in-foster-system-walk-for-darnel-taylor/ https://abc6onyourside.com/newsletter-daily/pammy-maye-accused-of-killing-5-year-old-darnell-taylor-indicted https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/crime/pammy-maye-arraigned-murder-charges-darnell-taylor-death-ohio-amber-alert/95-12c385ce-2975-4a29-828e-ec9814aadc8f https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/crime/ohio-amber-alert-pammy-maye-trial-darnell-taylor-columbus/95-b1e01853-f226-404f-afee-96dd02c8d991 https://www.wlwt.com/article/bodycam-video-pammy-maye-columbus-amber-alert/60483922 https://www.10tv.com/article/news/crime/pammy-maye-confesses-killing-darnell-taylor-police-body-camera-video-shows/530-e4f98e4c-4003-45c9-9fb7-800689ac1802 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9L36Q9wvdU https://spectrumnews1.com/oh/columbus/news/2024/06/04/autopsy-columbus-ohio-darnell-taylor-amber-alert https://www.10tv.com/article/news/crime/how-mental-health-could-factor-into-case-against-pammy-maye/530-9dd95a20-f074-4faa-a169-493dc7634c9b https://m.cwcolumbus.com/news/local/pammy-maye-darnell-taylor-ohio-amber-alert-accused-killing-5-year-old-boy-legal-guardian-columbus-cleveland https://www.diehl-whittaker.com/obituaries/Darnell-Taylor?obId=30901056 https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/264088683/darnell-taylor https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100088178340905

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Florida to discuss the case of Jordan Belliveau, and absolutely adorable little boy who was thriving in the case of his foster family. However, after his mother, Charisse Stinson, petitioned for her son's return, she robbed the little boy of his happy ending. Instead of enjoying life with his foster sister, whom he loved very much, Jordan was found decomposing in a swamp behind a baseball field after Charisse staged an abduction in an attempt to cover up her crime.

This week, Drewby and Yergy follow a circus performer family across the United States and discuss the tragic case of Eduardo Posso, and adorable little boy who just wanted to juggle and be free. After essentially being kidnapped by his father and stepmother, Eduardo was taken across the country and made into the family scapegoat, with some of his siblings considering him to be "not part of the family." In the end, Eduardo died from malnourishment and dehydration, and had lost 50% of his body weight. Only hair was present in his stomach at autopsy. He was also beaten with a metal bat, shocked with an electronic collar, shot with a staple gun, and chained up in the bathroom.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://thefuneralchapel.net/book-of-memories/3860815/Posso-Eduardo/obit.php?&printable=true https://fox59.com/news/mother-of-boy-shackled-starved-in-monroe-county-said-she-knew-something-was-wrong-no-one-will-listen/ https://eu.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/crime/2019/07/25/life-without-parole-sought-for-dad-stepmom-in-starving-death-of-12-year-old/46644245/  https://www.fox13news.com/news/mourners-dont-let-abused-boys-death-be-in-vain.amp  https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/in-court-of-appeals/2153597.html https://fox59.com/news/mother-of-boy-shackled-starved-in-monroe-county-said-she-knew-something-was-wrong-no-one-will-listen/amp/ https://www.wfla.com/news/local-news/manatee-county/could-eduardo-possos-horrific-death-have-been-prevented/amp/  https://www.wtsp.com/video/news/crime/vigil-held-for-12-year-old-boy-restrained-with-shackles-and-a-dog-collar-in-motel-bathroom-before-he-died/67-775fa579-1b47-4740-a92c-c4c5387282d0  https://public.courts.in.gov/Decisions/api/Document/Opinion?Id=U5DaNqVzIKHgjelhjlyoqfi5Z8DGe5MAWOEzhuAYuRKIcdLT8_PAVo43RnHM6q2Q0  https://amp.bradenton.com/news/local/crime/article230991853.html https://casetext.com/case/posso-v-state-2/ https://fb.watch/sUY3Q7sar2/?mibextid=KsPBc6 - WTHR interview  https://thefuneralchapel.net/book-of-memories/3860815/Posso-Eduardo/  https://www.wtsp.com/video/news/crime/vigil-held-for-12-year-old-boy-restrained-with-shackles-and-a-dog-collar-in-motel-bathroom-before-he-died/67-775fa579-1b47-4740-a92c-c4c5387282d0  https://www.nationalchildrensalliance.org/media-room/national-statistics-on-child-abuse/  https://www.nationalchildrensalliance.org/media-room/national-statistics-on-child-abuse/#:~:text=Child%20abuse%20is%20deadly.,compared%20to%20girls%20at%202.15  https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/juliareinstein/circus-parents-indiana-chain-son-selfie-starved  https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7087223/amp/Boy-died-evil-parents-tied-bathtub-tortured-electric-shock-collar.html  https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1011851  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_executed_in_Indiana#:~:text=A%20total%20of%2020%20people,with%20lethal%20injection%20in%201995  https://www.gofundme.com/f/eduardo-luis  https://cbs4indy.com/news/florida-investigators-say-they-found-no-signs-of-abuse-months-before-12-year-old-died-in-indiana/amp/ https://eu.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/crime/2022/10/07/judge-gives-man-65-years-in-starvation-death-of-12-year-old-son/69545042007/  https://fox59.com/indiana-news/father-pleads-guilty-to-murder-in-sons-beating-starvation-death-in-monroe-county/amp/  https://fox59.com/news/florida-investigators-say-they-found-no-signs-of-abuse-months-before-12-year-old-died-in-indiana/amp/  https://indianapublicmedia.org/news/posso-sentenced-to-65-years-after-pleading-guilty-to-murder-of-12-year-old-son-in-2019.php https://public.courts.in.gov/Decisions/api/Document/Opinion?Id=zwXyVGcWCaCNoKD5x7RXSU_cS4qf78ZgGdkOD9uu4s0lMYQ2iX8CUziLyecymlE50  https://eu.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/crime/2022/10/07/judge-gives-man-65-years-in-starvation-death-of-12-year-old-son/69545042007/#:~:text=Posso%2C%2035%2C%20has%20been%20incarcerated,Walnut%20Street%20when%20Eduardo%20died  https://www.mysuncoast.com/2019/05/30/manatee-county-sheriffs-office-releases-child-abuse-investigation-involving-year-old-boy-who-later-died-extreme-abuse/?outputType=amp  https://www.wbiw.com/2022/07/21/indiana-court-of-appeals-denied-a-woman-a-lighter-sentence-for-the-murder-of-her-stepson/  https://public.courts.in.gov/Decisions/api/Document/Opinion?Id=pKCMQe-7smEffEpjXuqG0Eg9lREUFXv6lskxYtW-fO9O6WgE4pOm5SsR2vX2Ttc00  https://eu.tmnews.com/story/news/2019/05/31/details-emerge-in-12-year-olds-starvation-death/117328246/  https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/06/04/us/boy-starved-to-death  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzbYi7mn0z0 https://www.facebook.com/profile/100063561125871/search/?q=posso

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to both Midland, Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada to discuss yet another case where methamphetamine and "mom's new man" are a lethal combination. Logan Cline was an adorable boy with his whole life ahead of him. That was until his mother, Stormy Johnson, got involved with Corey Allen Trumbull, a meth addict who was cruel to animals and obsessed with death. Not only did Corey get both Logan and his older sister, Lexi, hooked on the drug, but he started physically abusing Logan - an act which would lead to Logan's badly beaten body being abandoned in a an old car in Wichita Falls.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.facebook.com/share/7MwcgztTsfC3mkfw/?mibextid=LQQJ4d https://www.facebook.com/share/Dh4M8Uq2ffpYjKKU/?mibextid=LQQJ4d  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100005166616651 https://www.facebook.com/share/M63icgLkWCTowygy/?mibextid=LQQJ4d  https://www.facebook.com/share/cujJ1B3U1kKkXuCg/?mibextid=LQQJ4d  https://www.facebook.com/stormyljohnson https://www.facebook.com/share/Dx8kGwck7BhrMUu2/?mibextid=LQQJ4d   https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/207744312/logan-cline   https://youtu.be/z4MT-zNSQEM?feature=shared  https://www.8newsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/59/2020/03/trumbullarrestreport_Redacted.pdf   https://lawandcrime.com/crime/jury-needed-only-15-minutes-to-convict-moms-avowed-white-supremacist-boyfriend-of-11-year-old-boys-heinous-torture-murder/amp/ https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotel_Review-g56891-d277960-Reviews-Red_Roof_Inn_Wichita_Falls-Wichita_Falls_Texas.html   https://www.gofundme.com/f/logan-cline039s-funeral-expenses   https://www.timesrecordnews.com/story/news/local/2020/04/16/trumbull-indicted-capital-murder-death-logan-cline-11/5149998002/ https://www.texomashomepage.com/news/crime/crime-crime/accused-child-murderer-corey-trumbull-booked-on-3-million-bonds/amp/  https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/corey-trumbull-appealing-capital-murder-conviction/vi-BB1jA8qZ  https://www.newschannel6now.com/2023/09/07/stormy-johnson-pleaded-guilty-sentenced-murder-logan-cline/  https://www.texomashomepage.com/news/local-news/testimony-begins-in-trumbulls-capital-murder-trial/amp/  https://www.texomashomepage.com/news/local-news/testimony-begins-in-trumbulls-capital-murder-trial/amp/ https://www.newschannel6now.com/2023/08/22/details-murder-revealed-during-corey-trumbull-murder-trial/ https://www.newschannel6now.com/2023/08/28/medical-examiner-takes-stand-trumbull-murder-trial/
