The Warwick Slasher

February 27, 2017September 6, 2019 Lanie1 Comment

The Warwick Slasher. A Moniker that was given to the person who murdered 4 people in Warwick, Rhode Island in 1987 and 1989. The brutality and savagery of the murders would leave the town on edge.

Many in the community would ask “What Monster could do commit such unspeakable crimes”?

The answer would come in the form of a child. A child so hungry for the thirst of blood that he committed murder, just because.

Deadly Daddy

February 8, 2017September 6, 2019 Lanie1 Comment

John Battaglia Jr. would brutally murder his two daughters, Faith and Liberty while his ex-wife listened on the other end. He wanted to control everything around him and when he felt like the control was slipping, he decided on the ultimate act of revenge using the most innocent victims. Their deaths would create changes in child custody arrangements.

Help Find Christina

January 23, 2017September 6, 2019 LanieLeave a comment

Christina Morris was last seen entering a parking garage with an acquaintance at the Shops at Legacy in Plano, TX on August 30, 2014. That acquaintance, Enrique Arochi, is now serving a life sentence in prison for the aggravated kidnapping of Christina. She has still not been found.

This was a very important case for me to cover. I’ve felt a connection with her disappearance ever since she disappeared in 2014. My hope is to help get her name out to a broader audience and help bring Christina home.

If you have any information regarding the disappearance or current whereabouts of Christina Morris, contact Plano Police at 972-424-5678 or leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers at 877-373-TIPS.

A $30,000 REWARD IS OFFERED. #FindChristina

Where is Joan?

January 2, 2017September 6, 2019 LanieLeave a comment

Joan Risch disappeared mysteriously on October 24, 1961 in Lincoln, Massachusetts. A mother of two, she seemingly vanished into thin air. After discovering what she was checking out of the library, the mystery is further scrutinized by the public at large. Further complicating matters is the crime scene, was Joan attacked in her home and then murdered elsewhere? OR did she stage her own disappearance to escape the monotony of being a homemaker. After listening to the episode, you decide.

Sylvia & Erica – The Crossover

December 17, 2016September 6, 2019 Lanie2 Comments

The True Crime Fan Club Podcast & The Bone Palace Ballet Podcast have creatively joined forces to bring you this unique crossover episode. While a departure from our original format, we are hoping to bridge our listeners together to hear the sad cases of Sylvia Likens & Erica Parsons.

The murder of Sylvia Likens and Erica Parsons though decades apart have striking similarities. They were both abused and murdered by people who were charged with their care. Their abuse was witnessed by strangers, neighbors, friends, or close family members and still, no one spoke up.

The silence of the ongoing and tortuous abuse would lead to their sad deaths. It is our hope with this episode that you are courageous enough to speak up if you recognize the signs of abuse.

Our respective shows to honor the memory of Sylvia Likens & Erica Parsons have donated to: http://preventchildabuse.org/ Our donations will go directly to assisting this organization meet it’s mission of preventing child abuse in America. Please consider making a donation to this organization.

Too Close to Home

November 21, 2016September 6, 2019 Lanie11 Comments

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.

The Gray Man

October 22, 2016September 6, 2019 LanieLeave a comment

**UPDATE** We are working on fixing the audio for the first few episodes. Please be patient with me! I recommend continuing with the newer episodes as the sound quality has dramatically improved.

Please enjoy the Inaugural episode of the True Crime Fan Club Podcast. I chose Albert Fish for the first episode because he is really sick & depraved. I’ve been a “fan” of True Crime since I was 12 (that is also when I first read about Fish), so it made sense to use Albert as my “muse” for this episode. I plan to change up the format & I’m open to listener suggestions. Can’t wait for your feedback.

Look out for updates on Episode 2!
