Chanelle Pickett and Rita Hester were murdered three years apart. Chantelle in 1995 in Watertown, Mass, and Rita Hester in 1998 in Allston. Both were brutal crimes. Neither of them got justice. The attitudes and the language around gay and transgender lifestyles were very different back then. How the media covered violence against transgender people was cruel, if they covered them all. As a result of the mistreatment they got even in death, their deaths were instrumental in the creation of the annual Transgender Day of Remembrance on November 20th.Chanelle's murderer was prosecuted and used the Trans Panic Defense.Rita Hester's murder is still unsolved.  Mallery Jenna Robinson, transgender and HIV advocate and host of A Hateful Homicide podcast, joins me to talk about the violence transgender women face - then and now. We talk about the fight for justice for transgender victims, the urgent need for laws to protect the transgender community from hate crimes and the critical role empathy and compassion play in our society.

+Episode 51: Breanne Pennington, Migdalia Perez, Kathleen Daneault, Patricia Joyce & The Dark History of Murder In Gardner, MassachusettsThis is a true crime, local history, and storytelling podcast. I write about crimes, I set the scene, connect story themes, I talk about things that happened here, in Massachusetts and New England. This episode deals with gun violence, mental health, murder-suicide, stalking, terrorized communities, domestic violence, sexual assault, serial killing, murder, and society. Listen with care. We peel back the layers to decades of crimes that shook the quiet town of Gardner, Massachusetts to its core and delve into the timeline of Breanne Pennington's murder, sharing her happiest times and her most proud moments spent with her family, her faith, her love of horses and raising chickens. The young mother met a tragic end at the hands of her own husband, Aaron Pennington, who still has not been apprehened.Casting light on Gardner's dark past, a town with a rich history and the unsettling details of other women's murders dating back to the 1960s, we say the names of those Gardner women whose disappearances and deaths are far less known today.In 2020, Migdalia Perez was stalked and killed by a man she was terrified of. She got no help or protection in her final days. 25-year-old Kathleen Daneault was found murdered in 1983. More than 30 years later, we learned she was killed by a man whose notorious reputation of violence against women paints the chilling picture of a serial murderer, and the mystery of the still-unsolved case of Patricia Joyce. In the Summer of 1965, Patty was a hard-working 17-year-old preparing for her senior year in high school. Her story is hardly known today and her case was looked at closely for its similarities to The Boston Strangler murder case of the 60s.We examine the grim reality of domestic violence in its many forms and the dangers that exist behind closed doors in what could be any home, in any neighborhood.Special thanks to The Gardner News for their reporting - thegardnernews.comCrime of the Truest KindOnline: CrimeoftheTruestKind.comFollow @crimeofthetruestkindDomestic Violence does not look the same for everyone.National Coalition Against Domestic ViolenceNCADV.orgThe Hotline TheHotline.orgCall 1.800.799.SAFE (7233)Support the showFollow Instagram | Facebook | Twitter X | TikTok | Threads | YouTube Blue SkyFor show notes and source information, please visit CrimeoftheTruestKind.comBecome a patron: Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkind Music included in episodes from Joe "onlyone" Kowalski - Joe Got A New Heart FundDug McCormack MATH GHOSTSAndrew King

This is a true crime, local history, and storytelling podcast. I write about crimes, I set the scene, connect story themes, I talk about the things that happen here, in Massachusetts and New England. This episode is about sexuality, consent, sexual violence, murder, and defending a loved one’s privacy in death. Listen with care.Episode 50, Lizzi Marriott: A Life So Bright, Dover, New HampshireLizzi Marriott would have celebrated her 30th birthday on June 10 this year. She will be forever 19. Returned to the earth and sea that she loved so much. Growing up in Westborough, Massachusetts, she went to Westborough High School, Class of 2011. Lizzi Marriott set her sights on becoming a marine biologist. She had a special love for the ocean and all of its creatures. Her college essay was about her desire to protect marine life, a passion that was sparked during a weeklong marine biology camp in ninth grade. Lizzi was passionate about a future in the field of marine science. Her love flourished as a volunteer at the New England Aquarium in Boston. She was often seen saving wildlife, whether it was a frog or a turtle, something crawling or slippery, she loved everything about it. The University of New Hampshire in Durham was her dream school So it is no surprise that Lizzi was ecstatic when she got into the marine biology program. She began her sophomore year in the fall of 2012. Tuesday, October 9, 2012, started out pretty ordinarily for Lizzi. She was a few weeks into her first year at UNH, loving her studies in marine science. She was working, making new friends. She told her aunt and uncle she'd be going out after class that night and would be home later. Lizzi went to her chemistry lab until 9:00. At 8:55 pm she sent a text saying she was going to visit a new friend, someone she met at her retail job. She had recently made friends with an 18-year-old who worked at Target, a woman named Kathryn McDonaugh who went by Kat. The two traded text messages and made a plan to meet at her Dover apartment to watch a movie. Lizzi would make the short drive from Durham to Dover, the fastest route would take 13 minutes.  Lizzi did not made it back to her aunt and uncle in Chester where she lived. While it did make them nervous, they tried to pass it off as a teenager enjoying a new friendship and staying up too late. They figured she’d just crashed at the friend’s place. But when there was no sign of Lizzi on Thursday, everyone knew something was very wrong.

#roxbury #massachusetts #truecrime #wrongfulconviction #massachusettstruecrime EP 49 | Shawn Drumgold, Roxbury, Massachusetts: The Sonoma Street AlibiPart two of the Tiffany Moore murder case. In August 1988, Tiffany Moore was shot three times in what police would call a rival gang turf war on Humboldt Ave in Roxbury. The streets were not safe, Tiffany's own mother sent her away to keep her from the violence that was taking over their neighborhood, only for it to take her back in the cruelest way possible. The city was outraged and put pressure on the Boston Police to solve her murder and do something about the violence. Her death was covered nationwide and would symbolize the disorder that ruled the streets, the kind of chaos that elicited fear among those who were outside looking in. Police targeted a low level drug dealer named Shawn Drumgold, painting him as a savage gang member. This episode is about a murdered child, drugs, gang violence, witness intimidation, police and prosecutorial misconduct, wrongful convictions, and a still-unsolved crime.There is no justice in putting innocent people in prison.The New England Innocence Project: newenglandinnocence.orgOctober 2 is International Wrongful Conviction DayLearn about the Exoneree Network: newenglandinnocence.org/exoneree-networkJusticeforSeanEllis.comTrial 4 is the Netflix documentary about Sean Ellis's wrongful convictionWatch the trailerTwo core sources (more will be listed in show note at crimeofthetruestkind.com)Doubt Cast Over Tiffany Moore Verdict by Dick Lehr, Boston Globe, May 2003Thanks to Dick and The Globe's great reporting or Shawn Drumgold might have died in prison.Coming Home by Chris Wright, Boston Phoenix, Dec 2003CrimeoftheTruestKind.comFollow @crimeofthetruestkindOperation True Crime & Wine, our live crime eventThurs, Nov 9 at Off Cabot, Beverly, MassGet tickets now!Promo from PNW Haunts & Homicides: Join Caitlyn and Cassie as they chat about true crime, the paranormal, and all kinds of spooky sh*t in the Pacific Northwest.

Season Three. In episode 48, we head to the Boston neighborhood of Roxbury where, in the summer of 1988, the murder of 12-year-old Darlene Tiffany Moore in the area known as the H-Block (named for the streets: Humboldt, Homestead, Harold, Harrishof, and Holworthy) had a major impact on the city. She was an innocent girl with a life full of promise and just two days away from returning to her new hometown of Greenville, South Carolina to begin 7th grade. It was not to be. She was in an area known as a thoroughfare of violence and was struck with a bullet meant for another. But who? A rival gang member? Revenge for a bad drug deal? This is a story about Boston’s past, the war on drugs, murdered kids, "Just So No", the violent drug trade, street gangs, an outraged community, witness intimidation, police misconduct, wrongful convictions, an unsolved crime, and Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.🔈Listen everywhere.There is a lot to unpack here. This is part one of two. In part two, we will go over the arrests of the suspects in her case, the trial, and what came after.

Thirty years ago today, 10-year-old Holly Piirainen was enjoying a lazy summer day with her family at their vacation cottage in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. What should have been an innocent visit with a litter of puppies nearby turned into a decades-long nightmare for her family. Holly disappeared. The only trace of her was one red sneaker.  She would be found two and a half months later in the nearby town of Brimfield, in the next county over. As we revisit the details of Holly's case, there are a great many mysteries still. I speak to journalist and former editor of Grafton News, Holly's hometown paper, Rich Price about his journey into the intricate details of her disappearance, the potential suspects in her abduction and murder, and his relationship with the Piirainen family members.  In our exploration of Holly's case, we take a moment to appreciate the distinctive beauty of Massachusetts and New England.

The more I learn, the worse it feels. The brutality these women experienced, it is unimaginable. Let me be clear, no one deserves this. Not someone addicted, not someone whose kids were taken away, not someone experiencing mental health issues, not someone involved in sex work. Thousands of women every day are trafficked into this lifestyle. But this is not about the phenomenon of sex work. This is about these women. And how men target and abuse and mutilate and kill people like them that they decide no one cares about. It simply is not true.Like Chance The Rapper sings, “ Everybody's somebody's everything, Nobody's nothing.”Resources from this episode:For support, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline by calling 1-800-799-SAFE (7233), visiting thehotline.org, text  LOVEIS to 22522.New England Baby Safe Haven LawsNational Safe Haven AllianceMauraMurrayMissing.org - Families of the Missing and Murdered Demand Action from New Hampshire Attorney GeneralJoin us at the New Hampshire Attorney General’s office at 33 Capitol Street in Concord, NH on August 15 at 11:00 a.m. Families, advocates, and supporters are welcome to attend.There are a great many unsolved missing person and murder cases in Massachusetts. many we need a status on, to include:Andy Puglisi, Lawrence Deanna Cremin, SomervilleMelanie Melanson, Woburn Charline Rosemond, EverettKarina Holmer, BostonKya Donovan, EverettPaul Christian, LowellBrittany Tee, BrookfieldShariyah Heyward Hyde ParkBruce Crowley, ProvincetownAdam Wacholder, FalmouthHolly Piirainen, Sturbridge - August 5 marks 30 years since Holly was killed, please think of her and her family.Follow Support the showFollow Instagram | Facebook | Twitter X | TikTok | Threads | YouTube Blue SkyFor show notes and source information, please visit CrimeoftheTruestKind.comBecome a patron: Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkind Music included in episodes from Joe "onlyone" Kowalski - Joe Got A New Heart FundDug McCormack MATH GHOSTSAndrew King

This is about Massachusetts and New England crime, regional history, about the people, places, and things that happen here. Maura Murray is still missing. She was last seen on February 9, 2004 on a snowy back road in Haverhill, New Hampshire. Her story is a crime classic, a greatest hit in the gold catalog. I say that because of the nature of Maura’s case and the myths and mystery surrounding her disappearance, she has become like a character in a work of fiction. Her story has been “deep dived” and rehashed over and over again by the true crime coterie of content creators, podcasters, crime networks, reporters, show hosts, youtubers, tik tokies,  and those among this cabal who don’t bother to take any time to really provide much research to do her case justice. I believe we can use true crime for good. We can do better.  Julie Murray has been on the frontlines of  her sister's case, working to keep her story in the public eye. After 19 years, Maura is still missing. Never give up hope.

Part two of two in the still-unsolved disappearance of 10-year-old Lawrence, Massachusetts boy Andy Puglisi who simply vanished from his neighborhood in the summer of 1976. Please go back and listen to part one before beginning this episode. Police searched for just six days before calling it off. That was the beginning of a 40-plus year mystery fraught with suspicions, slow response, and missed opportunities. There were five known child predators at the pool the day Andy disappeared, police would tell his mother Faith Puglisi and, because they weren’t breaking any laws, there was nothing they could do about it. Children were not safe in the 1970s. They aren't safe today but missing kids in the 1970s seemed to be an phenomenon. We go over related cases of the men suspected in Andy's disappearnce, none of whom were arrest or prosecuted for his abduction. This is about violent crime against children, please listen with care. We still hope to find an answer to the question, what happened to Andy Puglisi? June is internet safety month, it is a good time to talk about what children face online and what we can do to help keep them safe. In 2018, the national center for missing & exploited children’s cybertipline received more than 18 million reports of online child sexual exploitation. the majority of these tips were related to:child sexual abuse imageryonline enticement, including “sextortion”child sex traffickingThey found that online enticement took place across every online platform; from social media sites to messaging apps and online games. It is shocking to learn how pervasive child sexual abuse online has become - with about 97% of American kids having access to tablets and smartphones, that opens up many opportunities for predators to get access to children online. Information at missingkids.orgThe Cyber Tipline: 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678)LinksHave You Seen Andy? by Melanie Perkins McLaughlinBoston Globe "Have You Seen Andy' series, July 4, 1999by Judith GainesNow on Patreon:Support the showFollow Instagram | Facebook | Twitter X | TikTok | Threads | YouTube Blue SkyFor show notes and source information, please visit CrimeoftheTruestKind.comBecome a patron: Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkind Music included in episodes from Joe "onlyone" Kowalski - Joe Got A New Heart FundDug McCormack MATH GHOSTSAndrew King

What happened to Andy Puglisi? Part one. This is a true crime, local history, and storytelling podcast. I write about crimes, yes, I set the scene, connect story themes, I talk about things that happened here, in Massachusetts and New England. This episode is about murdered and missing children, one in particular, about child sexual abuse, the attitudes among the public at large in regard to this topic, and the part that the Catholic Church has played in the serial abuse of children. If this is something that will hurt you, impede your own healing, or offend you, it may not be something you wish to listen to. This often goes unsaid, but this podcast is not for children.   Andy Puglisi vanished on August 21, 1976* from his neighborhood in Lawrence, Massachusetts. He was two weeks away from his eleventh birthday. His case remains one of the greatest mysteries in the state's history.  Andy disappeared long before the many advances were made to assist in locating missing children in the hours immediately following an abduction. *Reposted new audio with edited date to reflect the day Andy was last seen.The search for Andy began on August 22, 1976.

Monday, April 15, 2013 stands as the most chaotic time in Boston's modern history and was the beginning of a traumatic four-day manhunt that shutdown the city.Two home-made pressure cooker bombs went off near the finish line of the Boston Marathon twelve seconds apart, filled with enough nails and ball bearings to cause maximum damage. Three people were killed as a direct result of the explosions on Boylston Street that afternoon: 29-year-old restaurant manager, Krystle Campbell, 23-year-old Chinese student Lingzi Lu, and the youngest of the victims, 8-year-old Dorchester boy Martin Richard; 264 others were injured, some lost limbs from the blasts. In the days that followed, MIT Police Officer Sean Collier would be ambushed and murdered by the wanted men, a civilian carjacked and terrified for their life, another officer would nearly die, and one more would succumb to injuries from the shootout a year later. Journalist and Boston Strong co-author Dave Wedge joins me to talk about the 10th anniversary of Boston Marathon Bombings and the events that followed in Cambridge and Watertown.Follow the show at @crimeofthetruestkind.

This episode is a little different from the way I usually cover New England crime stories. I give you an update on three New England cases: two cold case murder victims were identified, and one cold case murder - the oldest unsolved murder in Vermont's history - was solved. Patricia Tucker, known since 1978 as "The Granby Girl" was found in that Massachusetts town, shot in the head. Her identity went unknown until now. Katherine Alston, The Girl on Kilton Road, found dead, weeks to months after her death, in October 1971 in a wooded area on Kilton Rd in Bedford, NH, off Route 101 has been identified at last. And Rita Curran, a 24-year-old teacher was brutally assaulted, strangled, and murdered in her shared first-floor apartment near the campus of the University of Vermont in Burlington. For five decades her killer was unknown, and, for a period of time had implicated a notorious serial killer. Hers was the oldest unsolved homicide in the state's history. Well, finally, we know who killed Rita Patricia Curran on July 20, 1971. Crime of the Truest Kindhttps://crimeofthetruestkind.comFollow @crimeofthetruestkind where I post show updates and case photos. Patricia Tucker aka "The Granby Girl" was murdered and her killer remains unknown. She was found in Granby but was living in East Hampton, Connecticut with her husband Gerald Coleman at the time of her death. She was also known as Patricia Dale and Patricia Heckman at certain points in her life and had two young sons. If you have information on Patricia Tucker’s case, please contact Granby, Massachusetts Police at 413-467-9222,  Email: JWhite@GranbyPD.org, or submit a message online at GranbyPD.org.Katherine Alston's murder is unsolved. She was found in Bedford, NH in October of 1971. She was living in Boston at the time of her death. Investigators are seeking information from anyone who knew Katherine or her roommate, David Cormier, and includes people who lived in Dorchester, Boston, and Somerville between 1963 and the fall of 1971. Students who attended Boston University from 1963 To 1967 might recall Katherine from her days on campus there.

In episode 40 (the second part I promised from the unreleased episode), I share the very emotional, complex, and disturbing case of the Clancy family of Duxbury, Massachusetts. This one definitely got to me. I do talk about self harm, mental illness, domestic violent and suicide and list resources below. In January, 32-year-old nurse and mother,  Lindsay Clancy, is believed to have killed her three young children - Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months -  while being treated for a postpartum condition. It is a complicated case with many differing opinions.

Ana Walshe, a 39-year-old working mother of three young boys is reported missing on January 4, 2023. But not by her husband, by her Washington, DC employer when they said she never returned to work after the New Year's holiday. A visit to her South Shore Massachusetts home in the coastal town of Cohasset sets off a string of events that leaves investigators highly suspicious of husband, Brian Walshe, and locals glued to the story. Ana was last seen in the early morning hours of January 1, 2023, after a celebratory dinner with her family and a friend. The husband's explanation of where she went, we learn pretty quickly, doesn't add up and his moves from the last time she is seen have left digital footprints that paint a very grim picture of what took place on the first day of January 2023. His criminal past takes a front seat as the story unfolds. Ana Walsh is still missing; her three small boys, her family, and her many friends miss her. They realize what the evidence is suggesting and it is terrifying. I always hold out hope that she will be found. Alive. Her husband is charged with her murder and she is presumed dead. Can someone be convicted without a body? I cite two New England cases where husbands were convicted in the deaths of their wives when a body was never recovered: The November 1986 murder of Helle Crafts of Newtown, Connecticut and the September 1998 murder of Katherine Leonard Romano of Quincy, Massachusetts.Crime of the Truest KindHosted & created by Anngelle Woodcrimeofthetruestkind.comFollow @crimeofthetruestkindMusic included in this episode by Andrew King and Joe onlyone Kowalski, Boston, MassSupport the show, become a Patreon patron!Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkindSupport the showFollow Instagram | Facebook | Twitter X | TikTok | Threads | YouTube Blue SkyFor show notes and source information, please visit CrimeoftheTruestKind.comBecome a patron: Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkind Music included in episodes from Joe "onlyone" Kowalski - Joe Got A New Heart FundDug McCormack MATH GHOSTSAndrew King

It was a case of fetal abduction, cruelty, and murder that made international news with gory headlines like "Fetus Snatcher" and "Womb Raider" in the Summer of 2009 involving two former neighbors of a Worcester, Massachusetts apartment building. One woman in her early twenties, the other in her mid-thirties, both pregnant, both struggling. Each seemed to lean on the promise of a new baby to offer a glimmer of hope in their relatively ordinary existence. Darlene Haynes was a 23-year-old mother of three, with a new baby on the way, whose innocence, trusting nature, and desire for friendship killed her. Her murderer was a another mother with a sick need so strong that she would commit a gruesome murder and steal her baby from her.  When Darlene was found dead in her apartment, it didn't take very long to figure out that the woman who'd been parading around with a premature infant and an absolutely implausible story was responsible.(This story includes fetal abduction, fetal death, domestic violence, child abuse, miscarriage) Crime of the Truest KindNew England crime storiesHosted by Anngelle WoodOnline: crimeofthetruestkind.comFollow @crimeofthetruestkindFollow the IG feed for updates on unsolved and missing persons cases from around New England Thank you, Gary Murray, of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette.

Part two of two. In honor of the seven people who were killed on 12/26/2000 at Edgewater Technology in Wakefield, Massachusetts. I am reposting this two-part episode about that first aired on Dec 26 + Jan 6, 2020. They were some of my earliest episodes. The Edgewater workplace rampage remains the worst mass shooting in the state's history. Remembering those who were killed that day after Christmas in 2000Jennifer Bragg Capobianco, 29, of BrightonJanice Hagerty, 46, of StonehamLouis A. Javelle, 58, of Nashua, NHRose Manfredi, 48, of LexingtonPaul Marceau, 36, of MelroseCheryl Troy, 50, of BeverlyCraig Wood, 29, of Haverhill.. .. .. On 12/26/2000, Michael McDermott exacted his revenge on seven of his co-workers at Edgewater Technology. Perceived and twisted revenge. Equipped with a shotgun, a semi-automatic assault rifle, a semi-automatic pistol, and a bag full of ammunition, he had chatted with his workmates then unceremoniously opened fire. The attack that left all seven people dead lasted less than 10 minutes. In part two, we learn how he plotted and planned for months, how he took advantage of the mental health system, and how he faked mental illness.Crime of the Truest KindNew England crime storiesHosted by Anngelle Woodonline at crimeofthetruestkind.com#truecrime #crime #newenglandcrimestories #massachusetts #maine #vermont #connecticut #rhodelsland #eastcoastcrime #northeastcrime #anngellewood #newengland #boston #wfnx #wbcn #wzlx #truecrimepodcast #regionalhistory #localstories #podcast Support the showFollow Instagram | Facebook | Twitter X | TikTok | Threads | YouTube Blue SkyFor show notes and source information, please visit CrimeoftheTruestKind.comBecome a patron: Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkind Music included in episodes from Joe "onlyone" Kowalski - Joe Got A New Heart FundDug McCormack MATH GHOSTSAndrew King

Twenty years ago, on that Tuesday, the day after Christmas in 2000, seven employees who were among half of the staff of Edgewater Technology in Wakefield, Massachusetts to come to work that day never made it home. A co-worker, armed to the teeth, showed up to the job he’d had for less than a year to exact his revenge. Perceived and twisted revenge. Equipped with a shotgun, a semi-automatic assault rifle, a semi-automatic pistol, and a bag full of ammunition, he had chatted with his workmates then unceremoniously opened fire.
