Just The Tip-Sters: True Crime Podcast

I do not have the answer. I feel like those much smarter than me do not either. But botched executions should not happen. Using nitrogen hypoxia might be more humane than a botched lethal injection but how do we know? One thing I do know is that the listeners to this podcast are some of the most brilliant and compassionate souls. I am open to hearing your thoughts, pro or con.

Can one woman who is determined to find the Lost King actually achieve this?!?! You bet she can. Phillipa Langley did have some help. Some. But she is a force of nature and she alone set in motion a group, a village of researchers, anthropologists, genetic genealogists, experts in many fields to dig up a parking lot and lo and behold, 500 hundred years later, Richard WAS there. The film "The Lost King," is her story. AND Richard's story. 

54 year old Roberta "Bobbie" Miller  of Gilford, NH was trying to settle into her new home with her dog Sport. She had only been in her house for a few days after a contentious divorce that took over 3 years to settle.

Hear her story. If you or anyone you might know has ANY idea who did this please contact the New Hampshire State Police. They are asking for our help. The Headquarters number is (603) 223-4381

Most High School predictions aren't precursors for how our lives will go. But the students of Sioux City High School voting Hugo Selenski "Most Likely to be in Detention For Life," seems pretty accurate. A career criminal who escaped a maximum security area of a prison, stole large amounts from mulitple other criminals and had several bodies buried in his backyard, it looks like he will not be outside of prison walls for the foreseeable future if ever. One of the bodies in his yard is still unidentified but we know that several agencies are working on this now and hopefully the last person found will be known soon. 

Patrick Weber, very loved son, father, husband, friend was killed while transporting cannabis in Northern California. Was it a botched robbery? Was it a road rage incident? Was it a contract killing?

Many podcasts and documentaries have been created around Suzanne's case. Its almost unbelievable that her case is STILL UNSOLVED 25 years later. Her story isn't unusual but it is unique. Murdered in an odd way on a street in an upscale neighborhood surrounding Yale University where she was a senior. How does something like this remain open? IF you know anything please contact the Connecticut Attorney General at 866-623-8058 or jovin.case.ct.gov

Who thinks they will come home from work and take their shoes off to relax only to find a teenage nightmare living in your walls who rapes and kills you (a pregnant mother) and kills your two children for your husband to find when he comes home?

I know Priscillia Gustafson never expected this.

Joseph Anthony Gatto, a 78-year-old was shot and killed Wednesday, Nov. 13, 2013 in his home in the Silver Lake are of Los Angeles. A visionary, an artist, a teacher who was beloved by thousands of students, other artists and collectors of his many mediums, who would want or feel they would have to shoot Joe in the gut and watch him bleed out?!?

Found in 2018 buried in a very shallow grave wrapped in cloth with a rose on her chest, someone loved this woman. Perhaps they were afraid to call police since she was found with drugs in her system. Or maybe they could not afford a funeral. But for sure she was loved. SOMEONE has to know this woman. SOMEONE must recognize her clothing, her jewelry, the new 3-D model of her features. Its a joint effort with the Hamilton County Coroner, the BCI of Ohio, Cincinnati Police and other agencies trying to identify her. 

The second part of the episode is the odd updates on the Delphi IN trial of accused murderer Richard Allen.

Adolph Laudenberg picked up some useful skills as a young man. He could whittle and helped support his family making well respected and in demand walking sticks. He also obsessed over his two step sons spouses and confessed to both of them his 'Four Sins,' earning him the nickname The Santa Strangler. Hear this monster's story in this weeks episode. 

Even though there was a "confession" proffered by an inveterate liar, Joran Van Der Sloot, I am not sure I will ever believe him. He has told so many lies about what happened that night. This explanation seems like it could be what happened but I will never trust him. If it brings some peace to her parents and loved ones I guess that is the best we can ask for. But its never going to be enough. 

Beautiful Whitney Copley was 24 when she did not return from staying overnight with some 'friends.' Telling her sister she would return the next day and then going missing for 14 months before her body was found was not what was supposed to happen. What DID happen to this lovely young mother of two and why won't someone come forward with something...anything? If you know anything about what happened to Whitney in Russellville Kentucky please contact the Kentucky State Police Post 15 at 270-384-4769 or KSP HQ at 502-782-1800.
