Send us a textIn November 1959, the small farming community of Holcomb, Kansas was shattered when four members of the respected Clutter family were brutally murdered in their own home. Herbert Clutter, a prosperous wheat farmer, his wife Bonnie, and their teenage children Nancy and Kenyon became victims of two ex-convicts chasing a prison rumor about a safe full of cash that never existed.This is the story behind Truman Capote's groundbreaking true crime novel "In Cold Blood"—a meticulously planned crime that revealed the terrifying randomness of evil and changed how America viewed rural safety forever. Dick Hickock and Perry Smith drove 400 miles across Kansas with shotguns and rope, intending to rob and kill from the very beginning. What they found instead was a family whose only crime was being in the wrong place when evil came calling.Join host Carman as she explores the psychological dynamics between two killers whose partnership amplified their worst impulses, the devastating impact on a close-knit community that never locked its doors, and the investigation that eventually led to one of the most famous manhunts in American history. We'll examine the disturbing evidence of sexual assault, the methodical execution of an entire family, and the questions that still haunt investigators more than 60 years later.This episode contains detailed discussions of violent crime, murder, and sexual assault. Listener discretion is advised.Note: This episode sets up next week's deep dive into the Walker family murders—a potentially connected case that led to the 2012 exhumation of the killers' bodies in a search for DNA evidence. https://carmancarrion.buzzsprout.com #InColdBlood #TrueCrime #ClutterMurders #TrumanCapote #Kansas #FamilyMurder #DeadlyIntent #PodcastTrue #ColdCase #1959 #PerrySmith #DickHickock #Holcomb #RuralCrime #AmericanCrime🎙️ **EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT:**🔮 Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore💀 Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://carmanscrypt.buzzsprout.com 🔍 Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://carmancarrion.buzzsprout.com🏚️ Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror ☕ **SUPPORT THE SHOW:**🖤 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion ☕ Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion 📱 **CONNECT WITH CARMAN:**🌐 Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion🐦 Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ 🔔 **SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW:**🎵 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY🍎 iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales! 🌐 **DISCOVER MORE HORROR:** http://eeriecast.com/https://www.carman-carrion.com/ **MUSIC CREDITS:**Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.Support the show

Game Over - He Beat Her to Death with an Xbox Because She Was the Wrong Zodiac Sign
Send us a textContent Warning: This episode contains discussions of domestic violence, mental health crises, bizarre murder methods, and detailed descriptions of crime scenes involving gaming equipment. The case also involves discussions of delusion and psychological breaks from reality. Listener discretion is advised.Season 1, Episode 8: “Game Over”In April 2013, Fort Lauderdale police responded to what they initially thought might be a domestic dispute gone wrong. What they found instead was a crime scene so bizarre it reads like something from a video game horror story—a young woman beaten to death with a gaming console by her boyfriend, who claimed he was fighting for his very soul. Monica Gooden was just 25 years old, working hard to build a life in South Florida with her boyfriend Darrius Johnson. She had no way of knowing that Johnson's grip on reality was slipping, or that his Xbox 360 would become the weapon that ended her life in a delusional attempt to free his soul from what he believed was her supernatural control. Host Carman Carrion explores this tragic case where gaming culture, mental health crisis, and domestic violence collided in the most unexpected way. From Johnson's bizarre claims about astrological assassination to his conviction that Gooden "would not die" like some video game boss, this case reveals how delusion can transform everyday objects into instruments of unthinkable violence. What drives someone to believe murder is the only escape from imaginary control? How does a gaming console become a murder weapon? And what can this tragic case teach us about recognizing the warning signs of someone losing their grip on reality?
