On June 18, 2021, Lauri Detherage was found shot dead in her home in Robbinsdale, Minnesota.  Her ex-husband, Robert McCloud had the key to her house.  They had remained friends since their divorce years ago.  However, her new remarriage sent ol' Bob over the edge.  He sent flash drives with confession videos to his family, entered Lauri's home and shot her, then proceeded to have a 10-hour standoff with law enforcement before being taken into custody.

Join the CrimeJuicy gang as we sit down with award-winning romance novelist Marjorie Jones Cooke, and friend of Lauri Detherage to learn about the woman behind the headlines, the double-life they shared at romance conventions, and the dark secret of domestic violence to which they both returned when the weekend was done.   

Bob is NOT okay.

South Carolina's Amazon Review Killer Todd Kohlhepp sucks.  But just how much does he suck?  And how did he get away with a mass shooting at a Superbike Motorsports in broad daylight?  And did he ever get to use that high quality knife he bought on Amazon, the one he left the glowing - and telling - review for?  And for f*&k's sake, who menaces a Waffle House!?  Tune in and find out!

This week on CrimeJuicy, the gang explores the question: just how far would you go for true, divine love?  Would you join an online cult(?) and fork over thousands of dollars to learn how to attune yourself to harmonious union with THE ONE?  Would you never give up your pursuit, even if it means getting arrested for stalking and harassment?  Would you take rejection after rejection, change your diet, and dive headlong into self-abuse disguised as self reflection?  We're talking the Twin Flames Universe and loneliness and vulnerability in the age of internet cults.

Sarah Winchester, tragic heiress to the Winchester fortune, lost everything.  Her child, her husband, and quite possibly her mind.  Entangled in the Spiritualism movement of the time, she followed the advice of a psychic and moved to California where she proceeded to build a bizarre mansion that even gave the skeptic Harry Houdini the creeps.  Join the CrimeJuicy gang as we ask, "...but why?"

Special guests author Dr. Mark Hewitt and Jeremy Mintz join the CrimeJuicy Gang to talk Charles Manson.  Dr. Hewitt coauthored the book, Charles Manson Behind Bars, the Crazy Antics and Amazing Revelations of America's Icon of Evil, with Guillermo E. Mendez.  Mendez lived in the cell next to Charles Manson, who spent hours upon hours ranting at him through the wall.  So buckle up, and get ready for a literally crazy ride.

Our oracle Krista did it.  She connected with Megan Marty, daughter of the Bully killers Lisa Connelly and Marty Puccio on TikTok.  Megan agreed to talk to us and while she was on the line Marty called from prison to give us his very first voice interview.  Somehow, we weren't speechless.

Marty Puccio had been savagely bullied by Bobby Kent for years including physical, psychological, and sexual abuse.  While the two appeared to be best friends, there was a deep dark side, one in which Marty was held hostage to this friendship that few saw...until Marty's girlfriend Lisa Connelly and her best friend Allie Willis learned the hard way.  After abuse, rape, death threats, and more from Bobby, the three and their accomplices decided he had to die, and he did.  

The young and traumatized Marty Puccio was sentenced to death and spent two years on death row, before his sentence was commuted to life in prison with the opportunity for parole.  While he and Lisa were in prison, their daughter, Megan was born.  When she was five shortly before the film "Bully" came out, she learned the truth about her life and her parents.

Join the CrimeJuicy Gang for our interview with the resilient, accomplished, and hilarious Megan Marty and her father, Marty Puccio, from prison.
