  • Ep 25 - A Dangerous Game: The Murder of Breck Bednar
    Nov 27 2022

    Caterham, England. February 17, 2014. Lorin LaFave was at a loss. Her 14-year-old son, Breck, hadn't been himself for a while. It all began when he joined an online gaming club, headed by Lewis Daynes, an 18-year-old unemployed computer engineer. Daynes's influence on Breck was powerful - he began skipping activities he once enjoyed, he isolated himself from his family and friends, he was constantly irritated and argumentative.

    Lorin did everything she could to put an end to the friendship. She installed parental controls on their home computers and tried to ban Breck from using Daynes's server. She even called the police, fearing that Breck was being groomed by Daynes. But her efforts were in vain.

    Those who had the power to help Breck failed to do so, and the consequences were devastating.

  • Ep 24 - Riley Whitelaw: The Walgreens Murder
    Sep 28 2022
    Colorado Springs, Colorado. June 11, 2022. 17-year-old Riley Whitelaw reported her 28-year-old coworker, Joshua Johnson, to her manager at Walgreens. Johnson had been making advances unwanted towards Riley, which were making her seriously uncomfortable at work. This wasn't the first time she had made a report about him either.She asked for her schedule to be changed so that she would no longer have to work with Johnson. But when she asked for extra hours, her manager told her that this would mean crossing paths with Johnson.Three weeks later, she was found murdered in the break room at work.This case is currently ongoing. Joshua Johnson had a preliminary hearing on September 16, in which detectives working the case testified that no one other than Johnson could be responsible for Riley's murder.A judge ruled the evidence given at the hearing sufficient for Johnson to go to trial. His arraignment is scheduled for Nov 15, where he will plead guilty or not guilty.I'll post any updates on my Instagram.The Murder of Riley Whitelaw (my blog post on this case)Instagram: @talkmurderwithmeFacebook: @talkmurrderwithmeSupport me by buying me a coffee ☕SourcesGoFundMe Page - In Loving Memory - Riley Riley Whitelaw ObituaryPreliminary hearing for suspect in Colorado Springs Walgreens homicideArrest papers: Teen found dead at Colorado Springs Walgreens allegedly had concerns about suspect since last yearTeenage Walgreens employee in Colorado Springs reported coworker before she was found dead in breakroomA Walgreens Employee Was Accused Of Killing A Teenage Coworker Who Had Rejected His AdvancesDocs: Teen asked not to work with coworker facing charges for her murder at WalgreensJoshua Johnson charged with first-degree murder in killing of teen co-worker at Walgreens‘There Was Blood Everywhere’: Walgreens Employee Charged with Killing Teen Co-Worker Who Told Management His ‘Advances’ Made Her ‘Uncomfortable’Riley Whitelaw funeral service scheduled in Colorado SpringsTeen employee killed inside Walgreens in Colorado Springs was stabbed more than 40 timesAutopsy report reveals horrific new information on murder of teen at Colorado Springs WalgreensLabor attorney raises concerns about handling of complaint before murder at Colorado Springs WalgreensLabor attorney weighs in on girl allegedly murdered by coworker in Colorado Springs WalgreensMan Allegedly Killed Teen Walgreens Coworker Who'd Rejected His AdvancesMusic from Purple Planet MusicSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/talk-murder-with-me/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  • Ep 23 - Terror in Suburbia: The Cheshire Murders
    Aug 21 2022

    Cheshire, Connecticut. July 23, 2007. Cheshire has pretty much everything you'd want if you were looking for a quiet, peaceful place to raise a family. The houses are spacious, the lawns are well-manicured and leafy trees line the streets. But what's most attractive about Cheshire is that it's safe. At least, that's what Bill and Jennifer Petit thought - it seemed like the perfect place to raise their two daughters, Hayley and Michaela. And it was, until one night in late July 2007 when all hell broke loose. What Joshua Komisarjevsky and Steven Hayes insisted was only going to be a home burglary, escalated into a frenzy of violence and ultimately, murder. What spurred the two men to carry out such heinous acts? And could the police have done more to stop them?
