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

Send us a textIf you’ve just discovered Deadly Intent… welcome. I'm Carman Carrion — a researcher, writer, and the creator of podcasts like Freaky Folklore and Destination Terror.But here — on Deadly Intent — we explore a different kind of darkness. Not the monsters of myth… but the real ones. The ones that walk among us.This show is about why people kill. Not just what they did — but what led them to do it. Their intent.Because in the end… It’s not the act itself… …but the intent behind it… that separates accident from murder, passion from premeditation, and revenge from justice.Every episode examines a criminal case through the lens of motive and psychology. From notorious serial killers like Robert Hansen… To cold cases, twisted family crimes, and killers who hide in plain sight.If you want to hear chilling true stories told with empathy, depth, and detail — you're in the right place. Start with any episode that grabs your attention… but listeners often recommend:· The Butcher Baker – A mild-mannered baker who hunted women like animals in the Alaskan wilderness.· Albert Fish — The Boogeyman – A sadistic predator whose crimes became some of the most horrific and psychologically disturbing in American history.· Or our deeper dives into lesser-known predators whose motives are even harder to untangle.This isn’t sensationalism. This isn’t about gore. This is about understanding how darkness grows… and how it hides.Subscribe now. And remember: It’s not the act… …it’s the intent.🎙️ **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/ **MUSIC CREDITS:**Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe. #FreakyFolklore #Horror #Folklore #TrueCrime #EeriecastNetwork #Podcast #DeadlyIntent Support the show
