The Murder of Sherri Ponsati
2026/09/15
Episode 239: The Murder of Sherri Ponsati From the outside, Sherri and Eric Ponsati seemed like the perfect couple-- beautiful, happy, successful, with beautiful children. But beneath the surface, their relationship was riddled with instability, infidelity, and abuse. On September 7, 2017, 33-year-old Sherri Ponsati was found unresponsive in the bathroom of her Gilbert, Arizona, home. Her husband told police that she had suffered a tragic accident—that she had slipped and fallen, and she was dead. Investigators quickly determined that this story didn’t add up; her injuries were inconsistent with his version of events and her family cited a history of domestic abuse.

The Brutal Murder of Margaret Sumney
2026/07/07
Episode 233: The Brutal Murder of Margaret Sumney After her first marriage to the father of her daughters, Margaret married David Sumney. The two soon welcomed their son, David Jr. Little David was doted on by his whole family, and had everything he wanted. He grew up accustomed to the finer things and it appeared he believed when he wanted something, it had to be his. This attitude turned violent toward his parents, resulting in a severe attack against his father and several attacks against his mother. When Margaret’s family tried to reach her to notify her of the death of her brother, they couldn’t reach her. A welfare check revealed that Margaret had been tortured over several days, and the killer was her own son. His phone revealed a sinister version of events.

2026/06/30
Episode 232: The Land Before Time Murder; the Murders of Judith and Maria Barsi Judith Barsi was a beautiful little 10 year old girl who had already become a household Hollywood name. She voiced “Ducky” in “The Land Before Time” and Anne-Marie in “All Dogs Go To Heaven” and had several more acting credits. She came from immigrant Hungarian parents and it seemed the family were living the American dream. Behind closed doors, her father Jozsef emotionally and physically abused her and her mother Maria. Her father, often drunk, resented that his daughter earned more than him, and threatened her and her mother on several occasions. On July 25, 1988, a brutal double-murder-suicide ended the lives of all three in the Barsi family home.

The Murder of Randy Ferguson
2026/06/23
Episode 231: The Murder of Randy Ferguson When 40 year old Randy Ferguson met Angela, it seemed like he’d finally found his person. She was a single mom of 4, and he’d always wanted children. Randy was regarded as a gentle giant by his family, who he was very close with. They were excited for him when he married Angela and they soon welcomed their baby girl Alison. But their relationship looked different behind closed doors. Randy’s disappearance in March 2006 set off alarm bells, and before long, his body was found in the trunk of his own car. His family was devastated, and suspicion quickly fell on his wife. After his killer was convicted, Randy’s loved ones fought for legislation that changed sentencing guidelines for family members who assist in a murder.
