  • S6 Ep113: Cultish
    Mar 1 2026

    The 1970s saw a surge in the prominence of religious cults with groups like the Manson Family, Peoples Temple, and Heaven's Gate making headlines around the world. But smaller cults began popping up in rural communities all over the country, including right here in Michigan. In this episodes, we'll talk about two such cults- the House of Judah and the Theocratic Commune Natural Health Service- who committed unspeakable acts against their most vulnerable members, their own children.

    Cases: House of Judah, Theocratic Commune Natural Health Service

  • S6 Ep112: Mommy Dearest
    Feb 15 2026

    A mother who didn't bother to look for her daughter after she was abducted by a violent stranger. A mother who spent years stalking and cyberbullying her own teenage daughter. A mother who stood by silently while her daughter was tormented by a monster. What do these three women have in common (besides being awful)? They're all featured in viral Netflix documentaries, and they're all from Michigan.

    Cases: Suzanne Sevakis (aka Sharon Marshall), Kendra Licari, Aundria Bowman (aka Alexis Badger)
