    About this Episode

    Do you have an Elf on the Shelf in your home?  You might want to re-think that after hearing this episode.  

    Most of us know elves to be Santa's helpers, jolly good-intentioned mini beings that make the toys for all the good children. But, Elf on the Shelf is a somewhat new tradition that started with a self-published book in 2005. 

    Hang on to the reins as Amber takes you on a sleigh ride into another realm and explores the possible nefarious beginnings of the pop-culture phenomenon that is Elf on the Shelf.

    We dig into the old gods/deities/demi-gods of Norse Mythology in a brief history of mostly Scandinavian (Danish) beliefs that pre-dated Christianity and their beliefs surrounding elves.

    Happy whatever holiday you celebrate to you and yours from all of us here at That's Not Good: A True Crime Podcast.  Stay safe and see you next year!

    Teenage Dirtbags Return Murder Weapon: The Cordell Richards Case

    Teenage Dirtbags Return Murder Weapon: The Cordell Richards Case

    They did what???? A trio of teens buy a meat cleaver, murder a man and then return it to the store.  How does that even happen? Well, it did in the murder of Cordell Richards. Some poor unsuspecting wife bought the murder weapon and was using it to cut her Sunday roast. 

    This one is hard to wrap your head around.  Cordell was left chained to a tree to die, except he didn't at first, so the trio had another go at it. 

    *Note: We are taking a short little break. But, no worries, will be back soon with new and probably macabre, maybe spooky, but definately not good stories for you, so stay tuned. *

    Boot Hill Boneyard: The Lost Boys of Dozier (Part 2)

    Apologies for the delay, but here is Part 2 finally.
    We would like to thank MaryAnne for the exclusive look inside the investigation as she was on-site during this process, her knowledge is impressive and you do not want to miss her insert into this episode. You can find her at:
    https://linktr.ee/crimecakes?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=8893353a-8fd1-439f-bf6c-20c7fc45d169

    Florida is known for a lot of things, Disneyland and magical vacations, but buried deep in the forgotten history is the story of the Dozier School for Boys.

    Depravity that was left unchecked for one hundred and eleven years, that is until men started coming forward in their twilight years to recount their horrendous mistreatment. This sparked a probe into what happened to them and those that were lost in the convoluted history of the school. Stories abounded of abuse, neglect, rape and even murder, raising the question how many bodies were there really on the campus?

    *Trigger warning* This episode and the next we recount allegations of the men and truly grotesque things, listener discretion highly advised.

    Monkey Business: Surviving Travis

    Monkey Business: Surviving Travis

    Hanna is back!!!! And, buddy, does she has a heck of survival story for you. 

    Travis' screams can be heard in the background at the start of the tape as Sandra pleaded for the police, who initially believed the call to be a hoax until she started screaming, "He's eating her!"

    Trigger warning: This episode is very graphic in nature, listener discretion advised.

    More Lies or Some Truth?: Reaction to "Casey Anthony Where the Truth Lies" Part 2

    More Lies or Some Truth?: Reaction to "Casey Anthony Where the Truth Lies" Part 2

    No matter who you are, undoubtedly, you have heard of Casey Anthony.  Dubbed by most as the epitome of pure evil, the most hated woman in America even.
    In her first on camera interview since her 2011 equital, Anthony claims to exlain the reasoning behind her bizarre behavior and prolific lies.

    This episode is reaction to the series put out by Peacock on Novemeber 29th and a deep discussion about all this case entailled.  This will be split into 2 parts as we discussed for nearly two and a half hours. This week Amber is joined by a special guest co-host, Kendra from Nocturnal Distractions Podcast.

    Above all, let us continue to remember the tiny victim, Caylee Anthony.
