On December 6th, 2009, Susan Cox vanished from her home in West Valley City, Utah. A beautiful, kind mother of two… gone without a trace. The person at the center of the investigation was her husband, Josh Powell. But this isn’t just a story about a missing woman — it’s about manipulation, abuse, and and a series of events that would lead to the deaths of almost an entire family.

FINALLY we have reached to end of our Bonnie and Clyde series. I'm sorry for the delay, but due to illness and scheduling conflicts we had no choice but to push this episode a little further than we would've liked. In the final part of this series, we will be discussing the last few months of The Barrow Gang's crime sprees, some devastating injuries to at least two of the gang members, a tragic death in the Barrow family, and the infamous posse, led by famous Texas Ranger, Frank Hamer, who put an end to the exploits of Bonnie and Clyde once and for all.

In this episode we will be talking about Bonnie and Ralph Fults time in jail, more burglaries, and several of the many murders that mostly Clyde committed with the help of his ever rotating cast of accomplices.

In part two of Bonnie and Clyde we are going to be talking about the early days of the new couple's relationship, Clyde's prison experiences, and the early blunders of the Barrow Gang.

Hey Everybody and Happy Halloween We are back with our first episode in a very long time! We are so excited to be bringing you the infamous story of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. In Part one of our two part series, we will be giving you the back story of the two lovebirds. This is a story that we thought we knew, but as it often turns out, we knew very little. Much of the story of Bonnie and Clyde has been romanticized and the actual story of their ill fated love affair has been embellished until it's hard to tell fact from fiction. In these episodes we hope to shed light on the true story, which is actually more tragic than it is romantic. We Hope Enjoy!

Welcome back to our third and final installment of our Pee Wee Gaskins series and believe me when I tell you, I couldn't be happier to be finished with this one. In this episode we talk about how Pee Wee was brought to justice and the last murder he committed that landed him on death row, right where he deserved. This isn't a long episode but trust me there are some nifty twists and turns that Rachel definitely wasn't prepared for. So buckle in and enjoy the conclusion to one of the most frustrating cases I've researched yet! (I had some issues with the audio while editing so I do apologize if there's some glitches. I've decided that part of the charm of Story Crime is the fact that I have no idea how to do basic things like have perfect audio! Thank you for understanding!)

With International Women’s Day coming up this week I wanted to celebrate a courageous and beautiful woman, who seriously slayed right until the end of her life. We will be discussing the murder of a 31 year old woman called Judy Malinowski. On August 2nd,2015, Judy was violently and viciously attacked by someone in her life that she should have been able to trust with her well being, her boyfriend, a 41 year old man called Michael Slager. Despite her extensive injuries after the attack, Judy would hold onto life long enough to make sure that justice was done in her case. Not only that, she used her time left on earth to fight for other people experiencing the same violence that she did at the hands of their partners. She would also become the first person in Ohio state history to testify in their own murder trial. Judy is a real inspiration of what the human spirit is truly capable of. We hope you are as inspired as we were by her incredible story. Follow us on Instagram: @storycrimepod Email us: [email protected] Thank you for listening!

Welcome back to part 2 of 3 of our Pee Wee Gaskins series. In this week's episode we will be talking about Pee Wee's life after getting out of prison in 1968 and the majority of the known murders that he committed between 1970 and 1975. Pee Wee often contradicts himself in the various interviews he gave about his life of crime so I've tried to piece the information we have together in a way that makes sense, but be aware that although Pee Wee admitted to his crimes, there's a lot of things we simply don't know, and it's almost impossible to really tell where the line between fact and fiction is actually drawn. With that said, strap in, because this is going to another wild ride.

Donald Henry Gaskins, or Pee Wee as he was nicknamed due to his small stature, was an American serial killer from South Carolina who stood just a whisper over 5 ft 4 inches tall. Despite his small size, he was convicted and sentenced to life for 13 known murders, and eventually sentenced to death after committing his 14th known murder while serving his life sentence. There’s a lot about Pee Wee’s life that is shrouded in mystery, mostly because, depending on who you ask, everyone will tell you a different story. After Pee Wee committed his final murder and was awaiting his meeting with the electric chair, he spent 15 months of his life telling his story, or his “Final Truth” as he called it, to author Wilton Earle. His life story was recorded on a series of cassette tapes and later published in a novel that was of course titled, “The Final Truth”. As Pee Wee tells it, the murders he was serving time for weren’t even the tip of the iceberg in his 5 year killing spree, and that there are somewhere between 80 or 90 more bodies out there that have yet to be discovered. However, if you ask law enforcement and those who knew Pee Wee, the “Final Truth” contains nothing but a bunch of lies and exaggerations. In this episode, we talk about Pee Wee's early life and the events that led to him committing his ghastly crimes.

Mary Bell was just 10 years old when she and her best friend, Norma, embarked on a short lived crime spree, resulting in the death of two young toddlers. Mary's life was full of trauma from an early age, and despite practically screaming out to everyone around her that she needed help, guidance, and love, her pleas were either dismissed as simply problem behaviour, or ignored completely. This is a case that asks the age old question: was it nature or nurture? Was Mary Bell a child who was born a killer, or was she a monster who was created by her environment. I know where my opinion lies and we would love to hear what you think.

In this week's episode we cover the horrendous Houston Mass Murders of the Candy Man Dean Corll. Corll was given the nickname the Candy Man because he ran the local candy factory in the area of Houston, Texas known as the Heights. Over the span of about three years, Dean, along with two teenage accomplices, would lure, abduct, torture, rape, and murder upwards of 27 boys and young men. Despite all of the victims going missing from the same area, their crimes would go undetected due to ineffective law enforcement and their tendency to write off reports of missing children as runaways. Dean would bury the bodies of his victims in different locations, but the main location would be in a boat shed that he rented from a local storage facility. This week we talk about more of the crimes committed by Dean Corll and his accomplices, how Dean met his end, and the discovery of the largest mass murder in US history up until that point. We also have a little bonus at the end that links this whole case to another infamous killer.

Anneliese Michel was a young woman from Klingenberg, Germany who underwent 67 exorcisms within the last 10 months of her life. For years, she had been struggling with what doctors believed to be symptoms related to epilepsy, but as her condition worsened, she became depressed, withdrawn, and believed that she was possessed by demons. Was this a case of a woman who had slipped into a psychosis caused by epilepsy, or someone who was truly possessed by the devil?

In the late 70’s a string of seemingly random murders terrified the people of Sacramento California. First, a drive-by shooting of an elderly man with no enemies or any reasons to be a target of such a senseless killing. This was followed by some of the most gruesome murders many in law enforcement had ever seen. A young, expectant mother was found shot in the head and her body completely mutilated. This murder was again followed by the slaughtering of an entire household, when a woman, her 6 year old son, and a family friend were found murdered. The woman was again completely eviscerated, her insides removed and organs placed in different parts of her body. Every part of the house was covered in blood and it appeared that whoever had done this had filled the bathtub with blood and bathed in it. Most frighteningly, it was discovered that the murdered woman had been babysitting her 22 month old nephew. In his crib investigators found a spent bullet and a pillow covered in blood, but the baby was missing. This would set off a frantic manhunt for a murderer that police were sure would kill again if he wasn’t caught. Join us today as we discuss the vicious crime of Richard Trenton Chase, the killer who was dubbed, the Vampire of Sacramento.
