On a quiet afternoon in Polk City, Florida, a teenage breakup spiraled into unimaginable violence. What began as a dispute between 17-year-old Hunter Penton and his ex-girlfriend quickly escalated into a brutal attack inside his own home... an assault carried out by multiple teenagers and captured on video. But the violence didn’t end there. As Hunter’s mother, Suzette Marie Penton, rushed to protect her son, she was struck and killed by a church van driven by 18-year-old Elijah Paul Stansell. This week, Drewby and Yergy examine the tragic chain of events that led to Suzette’s death, and how youthful anger, peer involvement, and reckless decisions destroyed a family forever.

Some of the most devastating crimes are not committed by strangers in dark alleys, but by the very people meant to protect and love us. In this compilation, we examine four separate cases that shook communities to their core, each involving a biological father who betrayed the most fundamental bond of parenthood. Phoebe Jonchuck, Maddox Lawrence, Dylan Redwine, and Takoda Collins were children whose lives ended far too soon at the hands of their own fathers. Though these cases occurred in different places and under different circumstances, they share a haunting common thread: warning signs missed, systems that failed, and innocent lives lost. This week, we will tell their stories, not for shock value, but to remember who they were, to confront the uncomfortable realities of family violence, and to ask how tragedies like these can ever be prevented.

It was a story that gripped Southern California and eventually broke hearts across the nation. In August of 2025, 7-month-old Emmanuel Haro was reported kidnapped from a Yucaipa parking lot during a broad-daylight attack on his mother.
The parents, Rebecca and Jake Haro, went on television pleading for their son’s safe return. But behind the scenes, investigators were finding holes in their story. Surveillance footage showed no kidnapping, and soon, the mother’s account began to crumble...

On a quiet train ride through North Carolina, surrounded by strangers and moving steadily toward its destination, no one could have imagined that violence was about to unfold in one of the most confined public spaces imaginable. Iryna Zarutska was just another passenger that day... until her life was taken in a brutal and senseless act that would shock travelers, law enforcement, and an entire nation.
What makes this case especially disturbing isn’t just the crime itself, but where it happened: aboard a moving train, a place many people associate with safety, routine, and anonymity. In today’s video, we’ll examine who Iryna was, what is known about the moments leading up to her death, how the attack unfolded, and the questions this case raised about security, vulnerability, and violence in public spaces.

In the quiet lakeside city of Oshawa, Ontario, police believed they were dealing with two separate mysteries: the disappearance of 18-year-old Kandis Fitzpatrick in 2008, and, nearly a decade later, the horrifying discovery of human remains belonging to 18-year-old Rori Hache. What they didn’t yet realize was that both cases pointed to the same predator... one hiding in plain sight.
Adam Strong was not a name anyone recognized. He blended in, lived modestly, and kept to himself. But behind the door of his small apartment, he was committing acts so depraved they stunned even veteran investigators. A routine plumbing call would unravel the truth... revealing a crime scene so gruesome that officers struggled to piece together how long the nightmare had been unfolding.
This week, we’re diving into the chilling case of Adam Strong: the man who dismembered two young women, evaded capture for years, and left a community haunted by questions of how he remained unnoticed for so long. This is a story of tragedy, justice, and the terrifying reality of a killer hiding in an ordinary neighborhood.

Some of the most devastating crimes don’t come from strangers lurking in the dark, but from the people allowed closest to home. This week's compilation tells the heartbreaking stories of four children whose lives were cut short not by chance, but by trust misplaced.
Logan Cline. Tesslyn O’Cull. Sereniti Jazzlynn-Sky Blankenship-Sutley. Jabraylon Bables. Each of these children was brutally murdered by a man brought into their lives as a mother’s new romantic partner... someone meant to be safe, protective, and temporary. Instead, that access became deadly.
PS: We're very aware that you don't cook Hamburger Helper in a big old pasta pot. Or porkchops. That's kind of the point of why someone's excuse is clearly made up. IYKYK.

In October of 2025, what began as a transatlantic journey ended in one of the most disturbing and tragic cases Florida authorities have ever encountered.
Sonia Exelby, a 32-year-old woman from Portsmouth, England, flew into the Sunshine State with an intention that would shock investigators on both sides of the Atlantic, and lead to a grim discovery in the woods of Marion County. Authorities say she had connected online with a man, 53-year-old Dwain Hall, and traveled to Florida with plans that ultimately ended in her death.
What unfolded next was a chilling sequence involving messages, online connections, an Airbnb rental, and a shallow grave, and it raised painful questions about mental health, consent, and violence. This week, we bring you the full story behind the murder of Sonia Exelby, how it unfolded, how law enforcement pieced together the evidence, and the dark online world that linked these two people in a fatal encounter.

In the nightlife pulse of Orlando, Florida, 29-year-old Dereck Cummings II, better known as Antwan Miles in his community, was building a name for himself. An aspiring rapper, a rising club promoter, and a father of four with another baby on the way, Dereck spent the night of January 29th, 2023 doing what he loved: bringing people together. His final event at Labelle Caribbean Restaurant was supposed to be another step toward the future he was striving to build.
But just after the music faded and the crowd dispersed, tragedy struck. Dereck was ambushed and gunned down in cold blood in a parking lot; an attack investigators say was carried out by 21-year-old Daquan Woods and 28-year-old Bobby Houston Bridges III of Apopka. What began as a night of celebration ended in gunfire, chaos, and the heartbreaking loss of a young father whose dreams were on the verge of becoming reality.
This week, we’re walking through the final hours of Dereck Cummings’ life, the events that led to the deadly confrontation, and the investigation that quickly zeroed in on the men accused of taking his life. This is a story of ambition, betrayal, and a community left grieving a man who never got the chance to see his children grow up. This is the case of Antwan Miles aka Dereck Cummings II.

In the quiet Swedish town of Skara, where life usually moves with the slow rhythm of rural calm, police were called to a scene so gruesome it would scar the country’s collective memory for years to come. It was 2011 when authorities entered a small apartment and discovered a reality that read more like a nightmare than anything imaginable, one of the most shocking acts of violence in modern Swedish history.
The man responsible was Isakin Jonsson Drabbad, soon to be known across Europe as the Skara Cannibal. What unfolded behind that apartment door was not just a brutal murder, but a crime so disturbing, so calculated, and so devoid of humanity that it forced an entire nation to confront the darkest corners of the human psyche.
Tonight, we’re diving into the life, the mindset, and the horrifying actions of Isakin Jonsson Drabbad, examining the events that led up to that deadly night, the chilling details that investigators uncovered, and the long-lasting impact this case left on Sweden.
This is not a story of mystery. It’s a story of sheer brutality. A story of betrayal, obsession, and unimaginable violence.
This… is the case of the Skara Cannibal.

In the world of true crime, some cases don’t just shock us... they shake us to our core. They leave us wondering how anyone could cross a line so sacred, so unthinkable, that it defies every instinct we have as human beings.
Today’s video is a deep dive into some of the most disturbing and heartbreaking cases in recent memory... crimes committed not by strangers, not by intruders, but by the very people meant to protect their children: their mothers.
This is the story of Chevonne Thomas, DeAsia Watkins, Monica McCarrick, Julissa Thaler, and Averyauna Enoch... five women whose names have become synonymous with betrayal, violence, and the darkest corners of the human mind. Their cases shocked their communities, devastated entire families, and sparked nationwide outrage.
Across the next two hours, we’re going to examine each case with the seriousness and respect these young victims deserve. We’ll walk through the events leading up to each tragedy, the red flags, the warnings, the system failures, and the horrifying final moments that no child should ever endure.
This is not a video about mystery. This is not a video about suspense.
This is a video about accountability, outrage, and the uncomfortable truth that sometimes the greatest danger comes from inside the home.
Viewer discretion is strongly advised. These are cases that will stay with you... cases you will wish never existed. But remembering these children matters. Saying their names matters. And refusing to look away from the truth… matters most of all.

In the shadowy corners of Southwest Florida, where the sun-soaked streets of Cape Coral give way to quiet neighborhoods, a darkness was quietly taking shape... one that would eventually erupt into a series of crimes so brutal, so senseless, that the entire state would be left stunned. This is the story of Wade Wilson (not Deadpool), a man whose trail of violence unfolded over a matter of hours yet left wounds that continue to haunt families, investigators, and a shaken community.
This week, we’re diving into the chilling events of October 2019... the sudden disappearances, the terrifying phone calls, the eerie social media posts, and the moments where authorities realized they weren’t dealing with impulsive chaos, but with something far more calculated. Two women, Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz, crossed paths with Wilson in separate encounters that would end in tragedy, revealing a pattern of manipulation, rage, and escalating brutality.
As we unravel this case, we’ll explore the timeline of his crimes, the disturbing background that shaped him, and the investigation that ultimately brought him to justice. This is a story of fear, heartbreak, and an unflinching look at a killer hidden in plain sight. Welcome to the case of Wade Wilson.

Imagine being 20 years old, carefree, and hitchhiking your way toward a friend’s birthday party... only to have your life stolen in an instant. In 1977, Colleen Stan accepted a ride that would plunge her into one of the most disturbing and prolonged abduction cases in American history. For seven years, she was held captive in ways almost too shocking to comprehend... hidden away in a wooden box for hours or even days at a time, manipulated, tortured, and controlled by a couple who built an entire world of fear around her.
This week, we’re diving deep into the chilling story often called “the Girl in the Box.” We’ll walk through the moment of her disappearance, the twisted psychology of her captors, the unimaginable conditions she endured, and the extraordinary resilience that carried her through it all.
This is the haunting case of Colleen Stan, one of the most extreme kidnappings ever recorded… and a terrifying reminder of how evil can lurk behind the most ordinary moments.

In the quiet city of Ogden, Utah, the spring of 1974 should have been ordinary, filled with warm evenings, small-town routines, and a sense of safety people trusted without question. But on one April night, that calm was shattered inside a small, unassuming electronics store: the Hi-Fi Shop.
What began as a simple robbery spiraled into one of the most shocking and brutal crimes in Utah’s history. Hostages were taken, tortured, and left fighting for their lives, while the community struggled to comprehend the cruelty that unfolded behind those walls. The violence was so disturbing, so senseless, that it changed the way investigators, victims’ families, and the entire state looked at crime forever.
Today, we’re revisiting the Hi-Fi murders, a case marked by unimaginable suffering, extraordinary bravery, and a long fight for justice that continued long after the store went dark. This is the story of what really happened inside the Hi-Fi Shop… and why its horror is still remembered decades later.

In May of 2019, 42-year-old Julia Rawson left her home for what should have been an ordinary night out. Instead, she crossed paths with two strangers whose fascination with gore, fantasy violence, and dark role-play would spiral into one of the most disturbing murder cases the West Midlands has ever seen.
When Julia went missing, her family hoped she had simply wandered off… but what investigators would soon uncover inside a grim flat in Tipton was something no one could have imagined. From chilling CCTV footage, to dismemberment, to the unsettling psychology behind the killers themselves... this is a case that forces us to ask how ordinary lives collide with unimaginable brutality.
This is the story of Julia Rawson, and the horrifying chain of events that ended her life.

In the heart of California’s Central Valley lies Bakersfield, a city known for its oil fields, country music roots, and tight-knit community. But in 2011, it became the backdrop for one of the most disturbing crime stories in recent memory.
Jaime Osuna, a heavily tattooed man who relished being called a “real-life monster,” was arrested for the brutal murder of Yvette Peña, a mother of six. What followed was a decade of shocking courtroom behavior, chilling confessions, and an even more horrifying act that would unfold years later behind prison walls.
Osuna wasn’t just a killer, he seemed to take pride in the terror he caused. Smiling in interviews, mocking his victims, and calling himself a “torturer,” his case has left both investigators and the public haunted by a single question: How does someone become capable of such evil, and why was he allowed to continue?
This is the disturbing story of Jaime Osuna, the self-proclaimed “Man with a Thousand Faces.

Robert Ben Rhodes was a man who lived on the road... a trucker who seemed like just another face behind the wheel. But hidden behind that calm exterior was a darkness few could imagine. His truck wasn’t just a vehicle; it was a prison. A place where people’s lives ended in terror.
Rhodes’ crimes stretched across years and state lines, leaving behind a trail of heartbreak and unanswered questions. Behind every headline and mugshot were real people — with families, dreams, and lives stolen far too soon.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head out to The Ozarks to discuss the murders of 43-year-old Clinton David Brink and his wife, 41-year-old Cristen Amanda Brink. The couple, along with their 7 and 9 year old daughters, were on a hike in Devil's Den State Park when they came across 28-year-old Andrew James McGann, who brandished a knife. Clinton and Cristen were stabbed to death in front of their little girls, who were later found safe. After an extensive manhunt, Andrew was apprehended in of all places... a local beauty salon.

In March of 1989, a bright and promising college student named Mark Kilroy vanished while on spring break in Mexico. What began as a night of partying with friends in Matamoros quickly spiraled into one of the most shocking and disturbing murder cases in history. When investigators uncovered what had happened to Mark, they stumbled upon a cult practicing dark rituals... blending drug trafficking with human sacrifice. This is the horrifying story of Mark Kilroy, and the night that exposed a deadly cult on the Mexican border.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Corpus Christi, Texas, to discuss the case of Kimberly Hill, a retired Marine Corporal and mother of two working as a hospice caregiver. That was until her 18-year-old son, Kevin Davis, decided to end her life in one of the most horrific manners imaginable. To add insult to injury, Kevin desecrated his mother's corpse, stirring her brains with a knife and performing acts of necrophilia. After he was done, he left letters all around his mother's apartment, taunting both the police and his older sister.
