Whether it's a true crime case or one of history's most unsettling stories, we understand that the devil is in the details. In each episode, we comb through the facts, scrutinize the suspects, and deliver the disturbing stories that keep you on the edge of your seat. If you enjoy evidence-driven storytelling with a dash of gallows humor to make the disturbing (somewhat) tolerable, we suspect this is the pod for you. But this is A Trial by Podcast, so we'll let you be the judge.

Ep. 090 | 10 Days from Death: The Torture of Alex Skeel [Part 2] (01:06:23)
Donate to the Cyarah Vince Foundation at the link below:https://cyarahvincefoundation.org/donate/---In June of 2017, police in Bedfordshire, England responded to repeated domestic disturbance calls and found 21-year-old Alex Skeel injured and bleeding each time - only for him to insist his wounds were self-inflicted and beg officers to leave. On their third visit in just over a week, seeing Alex in daylight for the first time, officers were confronted with a scene so horrific it stayed with them for years: Alex was skeletal, weighed under 100 pounds, and was covered in untreated burns, deep knife wounds, and bruises in every stage of healing, his body infected and his hair matted with dried blood. He was rushed to the hospital suffering from sepsis, fluid on the brain, and severed tendons, and doctors later said he was at most ten days from death. His injuries resembling those of a tortured prisoner of war, inflicted not by an enemy, but by his own partner and the mother of his children, 21-year-old Jordan Worth.-----Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Ep. 088 | Tiana Notice: 33 Pleas for Protection [Part 2 of 2] (01:04:36)
https://www.tiananoticefoundation.org/donate/---Donate to the Cyarah Vince Foundation at the link below:https://cyarahvincefoundation.org/donate/---On Valentine’s Day 2009, Tiana Angelique Notice, a 25-year-old woman from Plainville, Connecticut, was tragically stabbed to death outside her apartment. For Tiana’s family, this day marked the devastating end of a prolonged nightmare of stalking and fear. Just five weeks and two days before her murder, Tiana had been granted a restraining order against her ex-boyfriend, James Carter II. From the moment she filed for the order to the day of her death, Tiana visited the police department 33 times, desperately seeking help. Carter’s behavior was becoming increasingly erratic, and he had violated the restraining order multiple times. Yet, despite Tiana’s repeated pleas and her insistence that she was in imminent danger, law enforcement continued to tell her there was nothing they could do.On the final day of her life, Tiana reportedly confronted an officer, asking in frustration, “What is it going to take before you guys do something? When I am dead?” Tragically, it seems that is exactly what it took. The very next day, Tiana’s life was cut short.How could this happen? How was Tiana so egregiously failed by those entrusted to protect her?

Ep. 086 | Love Shouldn't Hurt: The Life and Death of Cyarah Vince (01:45:39)
Donate to the Cyarah Vince Foundation at the link below:https://cyarahvincefoundation.org/donate/-------In March 2020, 23-year-old Cyarah “Cece” Vince was shot and killed inside her Lorain, Ohio apartment by her boyfriend, Austin Altomare, after months of escalating control, emotional abuse, and isolation. That night, Cyarah and Altomare had a friend—identified in court records as J.B.—over for dinner, and after the three used recreational drugs, Altomare became agitated, pulled out a .40-caliber handgun, and fired at J.B., who fled. What happened in the minutes that followed is unknown, but when police arrived in response to reports of gunfire, Cyarah was found with a gunshot wound to the forehead and later died at the hospital. Evidence showed Altomare fired multiple rounds throughout the apartment and outside the building. Altomare was convicted of murder, felonious assault, and related weapons offenses. Cyarah’s family and advocates now use her story to raise awareness about the warning signs of intimate partner violence and the urgency of early intervention.--------Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

On the morning of February 14, 2005, 19-year-old Rashawn Brazell left his home in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn, New York, expecting a routine day ahead. He had plans to meet with an accountant that morning and then join his mother, Desire, for a Valentine’s Day lunch in Manhattan. Rashawn never showed up for lunch that day, and he was never seen alive again.Over the next few days, Rashawn’s loved ones grew increasingly concerned when he failed to return home or contact anyone. What began as a missing person case soon turned into a gruesome homicide investigation that shocked New York City. Within the span of a week, dismembered human remains were discovered in two locations in Brooklyn – horrifying finds that were ultimately identified as the body parts of Rashawn Brazell.

Ep. 084 | The Murder of Martha Moxley [Part 2] (01:13:39)
On October 30, 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley vanished after a night of teenage Mischief Night pranks in her wealthy Greenwich, Connecticut neighborhood, only to be found brutally beaten beneath a tree in her own yard the next morning. A golf club that was used to beat Moxley so brutally that the end of the club broke off - that golf club was later linked to the home of Rushton Skakel, the brother of Ethel Skakel Kennedy, AKA Robert Kennedy Sr.’s wife. Police learned that Rushton Skakel’s sons, 17-year-old Tommy and 15-year-old Michael, had pretty much been fighting over Martha Summer I Turned Pretty Style; and with that, they felt certain that one of the brothers had to be responsible. But of course, the money, power and privilege that comes with being a cousin of the Kennedy’s didn’t make their investigation easy.It would stretch on for decades, filled with conflicting alibis, changed stories, and shocking admissions, as police, journalists, and prosecutors tried to piece together what happened that night in Belle Haven. Decades later, after a sensational trial, a conviction and the overturning of that conviction, the question still lingers: did the Kennedy family’s privilege shield a murderer from justice?*****Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Ep. 082 | Dianna and Kevin Green (01:30:50)
In 1979, in Tustin, California, Dianna Green was brutally beaten and raped in her apartment while pregnant, leaving her in a coma and causing the death of her unborn child. Her husband, Kevin Green, told police the couple had an argument that night so Kevin left to get food and give Dianna some space - but when Dianna regained consciousness weeks later, she accused him of the attack. Despite his insistence that he was innocent, Kevin was convicted in 1979 of attempted murder and assault causing fetal death and sentenced to life in prison. More than sixteen years later, DNA testing on evidence from the crime scene revealed the real perpetrator was Gerald Parker, a serial killer known as “The Bedroom Basher,” who confessed to attacking Dianna and murdering several other women in Orange County around the same time. Kevin was fully exonerated and released in 1996, while Parker was sentenced to death. Dianna later publicly apologized to Kevin for the mistaken accusation that had cost him nearly two decades of his life.Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Ep. 081 | Chelsea Bruck: The Halloween Party Murder (01:41:24)
Story starts at 08:55Chelsea Bruck, a 22-year-old woman from Flat Rock, Michigan, disappeared in the early hours of October 26, 2014, after attending a large Halloween party near Newport with hundreds of attendees. Separated from her friends and without her phone, she was last seen wearing a Poison Ivy costume and asking strangers for a ride home. Six months later, her skeletal remains were discovered in a rural area in Ash Township, and the cause of death was determined to be blunt force trauma to the head. The investigation eventually identified Daniel Clay as the perpetrator after his DNA matched evidence found on Bruck’s discarded costume. He was convicted of felony murder.Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Armin Meiwes was a German computer technician whose 2001 crime shocked the world for its voluntary brutality. Living in the small town of Rotenburg, Meiwes posted an online ad seeking a willing participant to be killed and eaten — and astonishingly, a man named Bernd Jürgen Brandes responded. The two met, filmed their encounter, and Meiwes killed and partially consumed Brandes with his full consent. When police discovered the footage and evidence, Meiwes was arrested and initially convicted of manslaughter in 2004, receiving an eight-and-a-half-year sentence. However, after public outrage and a retrial in 2006, he was convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. The case raised complex legal and ethical questions about consent, morality, and the limits of human freedom, and remains one of the most disturbing examples of real-life cannibalism in modern history.Find all of A Trial by Podcast's links below:Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Ep. 079 | Amanda Knox: Behavioral Analysis with Former FBI Profiler Julia Cowley (01:16:17)
Yes, in this one, we focus on Amanda Knox, hence the title. But that's because I was lucky enough to sit down with former FBI Profiler Julia Cowley to get her expert opinion on Amanda's behavior and the three-page written statement she made recanting her confession that pointed at Patrick Lumumba. Alongside three former colleagues, Julia hosts her own post called The Consult: Real FBI Profilers.

Ep. 078 | The Affair of the Poisons (01:33:36)
The Affair of the Poisons (1677–1682) was a dark and scandalous episode in the court of King Louis XIV of France, where rumors of witchcraft, black masses, and poisonings gripped Parisian high society. Sparked by the arrest of fortune-teller La Voison, the investigation uncovered a vast criminal network of alchemists, midwives, and nobles accused of selling poisons and performing satanic rituals for love, wealth, or inheritance. Among the implicated were members of the aristocracy, including Madame de Montespan, the king’s powerful mistress, who was accused of using love potions and dark magic to maintain his affection. The scandal led to more than 300 arrests and dozens of executions, before Louis XIV, fearing damage to his court’s reputation, abruptly shut down the investigation—leaving behind an enduring legend of lust, greed, and occultism beneath the splendor of Versailles.Click here for all of our links!Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.

In 2012, 16-year-old Skylar Neese was brutally stabbed to death by her two best friends. She had been feeling left out of their trio, so she was excited when they invited her to hang out on the evening of July 6th. That night, Skylar snuck out through her bedroom window, but by the next morning her parents discovered her bed empty. Her friends told police that they had dropped her off later that night and claimed not to know what happened to her. For over six months, the case remained a mystery until one of the girls finally broke down and confessed. During that time, both girls even posted on social media about how devastated they were over Skylar’s disappearance. When investigators asked why they had decided to kill their best friend, one of the girls chillingly replied, “We didn’t like her anymore.”Click here for all of our links!TRUE CRIME TRIVIA NIGHT:Thursday, September 11thSeeing Double Speakeasy BarNorth Olmsted, OHQuestions start at 7:00, get there at 6:30Call 440-641-1267 to reserve a table (we highly recommend)https://www.seeingdoublecle.com/Find us on socials:Facebook: A Trial by PodcastInstagram: @atrialbypodcastTikTok: @atrialbypodcast Theme Music:https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischiefLicense code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCSDISCLAIMERThis podcast (and all related media*) is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.
