Monday Jan 29, 2024
By the end of the 1980s Rap had REALLY begun to take off in a way no one expected: especially not the music industry. With the success of groups like Run DMC and the Beastie Boys and artists like LL Cool J, boys from all over the country started dreaming of being rappers when they grew up. Two of these boys would become the greatest Rappers of their generation, only to see their stardom quickly taken from them, along with their life.

Tuesday Jan 02, 2024
The evidence is in and there is no way near enough to convict Darlie Routier of the murders of her boys, Damon and Devon. Not beyond a reasonable doubt. Certainly not to end her life.
So how did she end up on Death Row? This episode looks at the circumstantial and character evidence the prosecution used to land a conviction.

The Routier Family Episode 1
Monday Oct 16, 2023
Monday Oct 16, 2023
Normally referred to as 'Darlie Routier', this case has been covered ad nauseum. In the wee hours of June the 6th, 1996, in Rowlett, Texas, someone stabbed Devon and Damon Routier to death, and left their mother, Darlie, bleeding from a slash to her neck and screaming for help from a 911 operator.
Darlie sits on Death Row, convicted of the crime; and her case has been hotly debated for the last 27 years.
Come with me down the rabbit hole and see if YOU can figure out what really happened that night.

It's All Relative
I was listening to a True Crime podcast when the podcaster commented that they had had a problem finding scholarly information about why a person would commit familicide.
A spark flared in my mind, and this podcast was born.
