The Pig Farmer with 49 Victims | Serial Killer Robert Pickton

The Pig Farmer with 49 Victims | Serial Killer Robert Pickton

Timestamp to skip to the case" (5:12)

Canadian man Robert William Pickton is a serial killer also known as ‘The Pig Farmer’ or ‘The Butcher.’

He and his brother were raised by their parents on a pig farm that was described as a ‘creepy looking place.’ A 600lb (275kg) boar roamed freely around the farm.

When Robert’s parents died, he and his siblings inherited the pig farm.

Under the guise of throwing huge parties, Robert lured many vulnerable women to the property. From the 1990’s onward, more than 60 women disappeared from the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver.

Robert would end up confessing to the murder of 49 women. He ended up being convicted of 6 of those.

It's ALWAYS the husband... allegedly | Part 1 | Melinda Davis and Crystal Rogers

It's ALWAYS the husband (allegedly). Over the next two episodes we discuss cases where all signs point to the victim's significant other, but they are seemingly getting away with it.      In part one we talk about Melinda Davis, who was found deceased in the trunk of her car in March, 2021 after meeting her ex-partner to pick up some belongings, and Crystal Rogers who has been missing since July, 2015 after last being seen "playing games on her phone" by her boyfriend.

Missing Executives Alan White & Jake Cefolia

Missing Executives Alan White & Jake Cefolia

In two separate but similar incidents, Alan White and & Jake Cefolia were both last seen on surveillance pumping gas before each of their luxury vehicles were found abandoned in vacant areas. After months of searching, neither man has been found and clues to their disappearance are limited. While some have speculated that either man could have left to start a new life, others fear something much more sinister may have happened to them.

Home is where the body is

Home is where the body is

When someone is reported missing, it's generally safe to assume they're not in their house. Surely, the police or the family would have checked there already.  Except sometimes, after the headlines, the search parties, and the emotional public pleas from family members - that's exactly where the person turns up. In this episode, we cover a handful of cases where this phenomenon happened and the theories surrounding them. Julie Snyder, Molly Meghan Miller, and Christopher Woitel were all found dead in their homes after being reported missing and searched for.  Don't want to listen to the intro?

Moms Who Murder

Moms Who Murder

A mother is meant to be the ultimate protector of their children.  Sometimes though, they are perpetrators of the ultimate betrayal. In this episode we speak about four cases where mothers have taken the lives of their children, before killing themselves.  What could drive a woman to the edge like this? 1 – Michele Boudreau Deegan drugged her twin 7 y/o daughters before shooting them and then herself in the head 2 – Cynthia Collier fired 34 rounds into her four adopted teenage children, before taking her own life 3 – Kimbra Shanafelt and her 5 y/o daughter were found dead in their home from carbon monoxide poisoning 4 – Tristen Watson was pregnant when she took her toddler son into the Rocky Mountains National Park.  She shot him and then herself, and her unborn baby also passed away.
