Too Close to Home

David Elliot Penton was a sadistic child predator. He stalked his victims until the moment was right. His hunting ground? Just a few miles from where I grew up in North Dallas. This real life boogeyman was every parents worst nightmare. Unable to satiate his urge to murder, David would leave families and the victims who survived, irreparably damaged.

The Most Dysfunctional Family in America, Pt. 2

November 6, 2016September 6, 2019 LanieLeave a comment

Explicit content warning.

Eddie Lee Sexton was the patriarch of a family ruled by his word. He was a user and master manipulator; he forced his children to commit heinous acts against each other and other innocent victims. Part one provides a foundation into the early life of the Sexton clan; Part two of this episode covers the Sexton’s trip to Florida and the murders of Joel Good & his 10-month old son Skipper Lee. The Sexton saga comes to an end in this deeply dark episode.
