Wicked and Grim: A True Crime Podcast

The Bucket List Murder - Aaron Pajich

On June 13, 2016, Aaron Lee Pajich-Sweetman, an 18 year old with autism, vanished after meeting two women he trusted at a shopping centre south of Perth. Within days, police would trace his final movements through phone records and CCTV footage to a house in Orelia, where evidence of careful planning, digital communication, and amateur concealment began to surface. What followed was the unraveling of a calculated murder carried out by Jemma Victoria Lilley and Trudi Clare Lenon, driven not by rage or desperation, but by fixation on commiting their first murder.

The Murder of Kelly Jean Warner

In the spring of 2019, Kelly Jean Warner quietly disappeared from contact, a pattern that didn’t immediately raise concern because of her transient life and history of instability. For weeks, her absence went largely unnoticed, even as she lay dead inside a modest apartment in Sturgis, Michigan, her body deliberately hidden and her death unreported. It would take a single phone call on May 22, 2019, to trigger an investigation that exposed not only a concealed homicide, but a prolonged pattern of control, violence, and deception centered around a monster named Wade Allen.

The Kenora Bank Robbery - Paul Higgins

On May 10, 1973, a masked man entered a Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce branch in Kenora, Ontario, armed with firearms and a homemade bomb strapped to his body. What began as a bank robbery quickly turned into a public spectacle, broadcast live on radio as police, civilians, and hundreds of onlookers watched the standoff unfold on Main Street. When a single gunshot triggered a massive explosion, the robber was killed instantly leaving behind a scene of destruction, unanswered questions, and an identity that remains unknown more than half a century later.

The Murder of Betty Shanks

On the night of September 19, 1952, 22 year old Betty Shanks stepped off a tram in the Brisbane suburb of Grange and began the short walk home to her parents’ house, less than 400 metres away. Within minutes, she was violently attacked and killed, her body discovered the following morning in a neighbour’s garden. More than seventy years later, her murder remains Queensland’s oldest unsolved homicide, defined by a narrow twelve minute window, unanswered questions, and a truth that has never been fully uncovered.

Chelsea Perkins - Revenge Murder

In March 2021, a man was found executed on a wooded trail inside Cuyahoga Valley National Park, shot once in the back of the head with no weapon left behind. As investigators reconstructed his final days, they uncovered a deliberate, cross-state plan driven not by chance, but by revenge rooted in a past allegation that had never resulted in charges. This is the true story of how unresolved trauma, perceived injustice, and calculated retaliation collided with consequences that would ultimately claim multiple lives.
