Jean Steven was very close to her sister and her husband.  Perhaps a bit... too close.  We've got a bit of an odd story today, Fam - straight out of a Hitchcock movie.  Why did Jean keep the embalmed bodies of her husband and sister IN HER HOME, and how did she get the seemingly all-too-willing characters around town to help her?  Thankfully, the ever-trusty Beth Karas is here to help us sort through the shenanigans. Find and watch "The Curious Case of...

In July 2003, 34-year-old Shawn Johnson was in New Orleans for a conference. And he did WHAT ANY OF US WOULD DO and tacked on a few days for a little bit of fun. On his last night in town, he found himself at an infamous bar called The Dungeon where he met a group of people who he invited back to his hotel room to fill the hot tub with Champagne and continue the party. Again, like any of us would do. However, Shawn would, tragically, be found dead in the room the following morning. On the walls of the room were ripped up and torn out pages from the bible. And on the bed, the creepiest homemade doll - WITH REAL HUMAN HAIR - that was ever created. The search for Shawn's killers was a mess. But in the end, some sort of justice prevailed. But oh my god, can everyone take it down a notch? Find and watch "Blood on Bourbon Street" on HuluLOOKING FOR MORE TCO?

Fam, when they say "Worst Ex Ever" they really aren't kidding here - and giving him the "Deadpool" moniker just because he's got the same name as the comic book character?

Take a deep breath for this one, Fam! On December 6, 1991, four teenaged girls were found sexually assaulted and murdered in an I Can't Believe It's Yogurt shop in Austin, Texas.

Journalist Marresa Burke is on a mission: to give the name back to a man in a cemetery known only as "unknown negro." The man died while riding the rails in the 1960s- - crushed under 5,000 pounds of ice in an ice car. Was it an accident? Was it murder? And who was this man, where was he going, and why? Working alongside THE BADASSES OF THE DNA DOE PROJECT, Marresa is going to figure it out. Along the way, she will reunite the man's family - -a family living in the same city with no idea of their connection to each other.

SOOOOOOOO according to Benjaman's brother, Benjaman is totally an ax murderer. Or some kind of murderer anyway. As soon as Benjaman discovers his true identity, things go off the rails. So now we know WHO he is, but what we need to figure out now is WHAT IS HE HIDING AND WHY IS HE HIDING IT. Is he a mafia hit man? Just a total grifter? And when a threat comes in against the lives of the children of the filmmakers, it becomes all out war between Benjaman and the documentary crew. It's...a lot.

Pull over and gird your loins, Fam, because this one is NUTS and we have a lot of feelings bout it! In 2004, a 64-year-old man is found bloody, beaten AND YES NAKED behind a dumpster in Richmond Hills, Georgia. He claimed complete and total amnesia.

IT'S PRIDE MONTH AND STILL WE CAN'T HAVE ANYTHING NICE. Ugh. In 2022, a string of unusual deaths of young gay men rocked the neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen, NYC. Well "unusual" only if you're not the NYC cops who just assumed that because these men were gay, and that they died of self-inflicted drug overdoses. But thanks to the friends and loved ones of these victims WHO DEMANDED ACTION, the deaths were finally connected and understood for what they were - a serial killing spree.

When Joanna Hunter died in  her home in 2011, it took the cops less than 30 minutes to rule the death a suicide. Mostly because her husband said that that's what happened. No crime scene was preserved and no investigation was done. The case was closed, but Joanna's family never accepted the suicide ruling. They knew all too well about the years of abuse Joanna had suffered at the hands of her husband and all of the times she tried to leave him.

Over the course sixteen months, 39-year-old Stephen Port killed four gay men in his East London home... and DESPITE BEING A TOTAL IDIOT... completely got away with it.
