Hey friends!
On this podcast, we will be talking about all thing’s crime. From murder, to missing persons, to mass shootings, to just plain old spooky! Layered with some lighthearted humor...and some not so lighthearted humor. Please be advised that this podcast is filled with adult content and explicit language; listener discretion is advised.
Happy Pride month! In honor of pride month, we will be covering cases that were catalysts for change in LGBTQIA2+ community, cases that weren’t investigated due to their connections to the community, and cases that were blatantly ignored due to homophobia. We want to highlight the adversity’s this community has and continues to face as well as the absolute strength and resilience shown throughout history and today.
For this episode, we discussed the absolute weirdo that is, Dennis Nilsen. He killed in England from 1978-1983, targeting members of the LGBTQIA2+ Community and other marginalized populations taking 15 lives and attempting to take 7 others. Dennis was able to continue killing for several years due to the homophobia in England at the time which led to police officers ignoring crimes that resembled “gay crimes” – which Dennis knew and used to his advantage. Our hearts are with the victims that were lost and with those that luckily survived.
Please take a moment to remember the men that lost their lives and the others who nearly lost theirs:
WARNING: this episode contains very dark humor, uncomfortable laughter, younger victims, and graphic descriptions of crime scenes. Some people may find this episode triggering and may find it difficult to listen to.
