California girls ARE undeniable, fine, fresh, fierce, and they’ve got in on lock! But it seems like California men are a little bit (ahem... lottle bit) f$cked up.
If you’ve been following us for a while, you’ve probably seen or heard Mardy in our recordings. She was the sweetest girl who loved to warm up our legs as we recorded. We had to put our true crime gabs on hold for a bit to give her all the attention she deserved for her last few weeks. So, this week’s episode is dedicated to our dear pup Mardy. Give your pets an extra squeeze today for us!
Anyway, Mardy may not have been a California girl (she was a New Yorker through and through) but today’s victims were... well, kinda. Brandon is kicking us off with a story that involves multiple ransom notes. No, ransom is not just for pirates. And yes, this story is brutal so viewer discretion is advised!
Marion Parker was kidnapped by Mr. Cooper after the school secretary allowed her to go home with a stranger. That’s unthinkable by today’s standards… because of stories like Marion’s. After sending multiple letters demanding the father pay up without involving law enforcement, Marion’s father was left with his daughter’s body... in pieces.
Next, Kevin tells a story that hits close to home. Ashley Hall (Atherley) was a mother of two, great friend to many, including Kevin’s sister-in-law Britaney, and she dreamt of teaching history. Unfortunately, domestic abuse ultimately stripped her of her spirit.
Ashley’s story shows the typical progression of domestic abuse. Starting by cutting her off from her family and friends and escalating to tragic heights. If you or someone you know is suffering under the hands of an abuser, Ashley’s family has actually created a resource to help victims escape violence.
