Stranger Danger: A True Crime Podcast

Susan Walters was an unsuspecting ER nurse when she was attacked in her home one evening. She fought tooth (literally, she bit him!) and nail to survive the attack, but the real plot twist is what happened to her attacker and why he attacked her in the first place.

 

Jessica Chapman and Holly Wells were best friends who suddenly went missing in their neighborhood after stumbling across the home of their teacher’s assistant, Maxine Carr. When Maxine’s boyfriend, Ian Huntley, oddly inserts himself into the investigation, all signs point to foul play. 

Was Scott Peterson actually fleeing to Mexico? Was that DIY home bleach job really to disguise himself from police? 

We’re wrapping up the arrest, the trial, and giving our final thoughts on this case before we lay it to rest. Just out of curiosity though, how many of you changed your stance throughout this case coverage? Let us know! 

Part 2 of 3 and we’re asking the age old question: did the husband do it? We’re going through the results of the search warrants, Amber Frey, and some of Scott’s behaviors and other theories surrounding the day of Laci’s disappearance. 

Scott Peterson may be guilty solely based on the fact that he eats pizza with milk... ew. 

The first of THREE PARTS may be short, but don’t fret - the next two promise to be much longer and more in depth. Today, we’re doing the highest level overview with the known facts and Scott’s accounts. In part 2 & 3, we’ll discuss the controversies. 

Wrapping up our coverage of Robert Durst, The Jinx, what happened after the hot mics, and who wrote the cadaver note (yes, we can tell you definitively who wrote it). 

Is Robert Durst jinxed, or the luckiest alleged murderer on the planet? This real estate heir seems to always to be caught up in some kind of murder drama, but lucky for us he also loves the spotlight. We're covering HBO's The Jinx and the bodies that seem to fall around Durst under the most coincidental of circumstances. 

Do you like scary movies? What's your favorite scary movie? If you answered Halloween, you're wrong. 

Brian Draper and Torey Adamcik took their love of the Scream franchise way too far when they used the movie as inspo to terrorize and murder Cassie Jo Stoddart. When they say life imitates art, I don't think this is what they had in mind. 

 

A new segment, perhaps? We're discussing some high profile, highly controversial cases in today's episode of True Crime Chats and asking the age-old question: Guilty or Innocent? These aren't deep dives, but rather a true crime snack, ice breaker, shoot-the-shit, appetizer-type-thing, if you will. 

The possibilities are endless for this segment - guilty or not guilty, would you rather?, unpopular opinions, etc. Send us your ideas/requests and join us on IG @astrangerdangerpodcast to cast your votes periodically. You may just hear your name in a future episode! 

When parents cut off their freeloading children from the gravy train (not the Thanksgiving kind that goes with turkey and mashed potatoes), things tend to escalate quickly. Deadbeat Joel Guy Jr. didn’t take too kindly to his parents forcing him to get a job, so he took matters into his own hands and did what will likely be the only manual labor he completes in his lifetime.
