True Crime Cases with Lanie

This week, I’m stepping away from our usual format to bring you a more candid, off-the-cuff exploration of a case that stayed with me—one that didn’t make national headlines but absolutely should have. Lisa Boldridge didn’t fire the gun that killed her ex-husband, Kurt—but prosecutors say she planned every detail. From years of harassment and arson to manipulating her son’s father into pulling the trigger, this case is a disturbing look at how far one woman would go to regain control. We’ll unpack the tangled relationships, veiled threats, and the cold logic behind a calculated murder—and explore whether justice was truly served. 🎙 [https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/72x72/1f399.png] If you like this style of storytelling, let me know by rating the episode or dropping a comment on Spotify or social media.

There are moments in life that, once seen, can never be unseen. Maybe it’s something deeply personal—like the sight of a loved one in a hospital bed. Or maybe it’s the brief but jarring glimpse of strangers in the aftermath of a tragedy. In this episode, we examine the disturbing case of Sarah Boone and Jorge Torres Jr.—a couple bound by a volatile, alcohol-fueled relationship that ended in a shocking and unforgettable act. What unfolded inside a suitcase one February night was recorded, documented, and later presented as evidence. But the deeper questions remain: Was it a moment of rage? A tragic mistake? Or something much more calculated? Content Warnings: murder, intimate partner violence, alcohol abuse.

Joinme as I unpack the deaths of Gary Farris and Bill Hall Jr., two cases with haunting similarities—and very different outcomes. Content Warnings: infidelity, murder, reckless driving.

The “mafia” in Chicago has a long and storied history, with origins dating back as far as the late 1800s. It has ties to the island of Sicily, and is also known as “The Outfit” and “La Cosa Nostra,” an Italian phrase apparently meaning “Our Thing”. The Chicago Outfit was born from the murder of James “Big Jim” Colosimo on May 11th, 1920.  Content Warnings: organized crime, murder.
