Descripción

Lock your doors and prepare to have your blood pressure absolutely skyrocket. This week on Hot Mess Murder Club, we’re heading to lockdown-era London to discuss a case that is equal parts heartbreaking, infuriating, and profoundly stupid. In June 2020, sisters Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman were just trying to find a little bit of joy during a pandemic, celebrating Bibaa's 46th birthday in Fryent Country Park with fairy lights, music, and dancing. Enter Danyal Hussein: a 19-year-old creeping in the bushes with a serrated Asda knife and a literal demon complex. We are walking you through the entire chronological timeline of this absolute trash fire. We’ll break down the fierce fight the sisters put up, the trail of DNA left behind by a painfully clumsy killer, and Hussein’s completely unhinged motive. (Spoiler: it involves a handwritten blood pact with a mythical demon named "King Lucifuge Rofocale" in exchange for the winning Mega Millions jackpot. Yes, really. He murdered two women to win the lottery). And because no HMMC story is complete without catastrophic institutional incompetence, we are dragging the Metropolitan Police through the mud. We detail their pathetic refusal to take the missing persons report seriously, the horrific reality that the family had to find the bodies themselves, and the two absolute ghouls in uniform who took selfies at the crime scene. Join us as we relentlessly roast a colossal idiot whose supernatural sugar daddy failed to post his bail, and honor the fierce, system-shaking advocacy of the victims' mother, Mina Smallman. Show Notes: * 00:00 - Intro & the lockdown birthday party in Fryent Country Park. * 15:20 - The attack and the painfully sloppy crime scene. * 28:45 - A masterclass in do-nothing policing: The Met abandons the family. * 41:10 - The "A Team" WhatsApp group and the unforgivable crime scene selfies. * 52:30 - The raid: Finding the blood pact, King Lucifuge Rofocale, and the lottery tickets. * 1:05:15 - Trial, sentencing, and Mina Smallman taking down a corrupt system. #podcast #truecrime #demoncontract #storytime #fyp #justice #investigation #murder #crime

episode Welcome to the Death House: Dorothea Puente (Part 2) artwork

Welcome to the Death House: Dorothea Puente (Part 2)

Welcome back to Hot Mess Murder Club! Last week, we gave you all the diabolical build-up and zero climax. This week, Kat and Holly are finally opening the doors to 1426 F Street, picking up the shovels, and digging up the yard. In the final chapter of this two-part series, the chameleon's trap snaps shut. We are diving deep into the actual pipeline of prey and the brutal reality of her body count. From her first proven pen-pal victim, Everson Gillmouth—whose body spent three years as a "John Doe" in a coffin-like plywood box—to the absolute psychological horror of burying a tenant alive under a metal tool shed, Dorothea's grandmotherly facade completely shatters. We’re talking predatory poisoning, targeted medical hijacking, and the pure audacity of calling a commercial carpet cleaner to scrub "foul-smelling slime" out of the floorboards. But arrogance always leaves a trail. Tune in to hear how a fiercely persistent social worker, an unhinged fake phone call to Mexico, and a massive legal loophole finally brought Detective John Cabrera straight to her freshly tilled dirt grid. Plus, we cover her dramatic five-day escape to Los Angeles, the motel arrest, and the historic, chaotic 1993 trial that resulted in a record-breaking 24 days of jury deliberation. The yard is officially dug up, and the trial is over.

How to Build a Grandma Serial Killer: Dorothea Puente (Part 1)

Welcome back to Hot Mess Murder Club! This week, Kat and Holly are bypassing the pleasantries and diving straight into the deeply toxic, unhinged life of Dorothea Puente. You might know her as the infamous "Death House Landlady" who treated a Sacramento Victorian duplex like her own personal, privately-funded cemetery, but how exactly do you build a cardigan-wearing apex predator? In Part One of this two-part series, we are unpacking her absolute garbage-fire of an origin story. We trace Dorothea's path from a soul-crushing childhood filled with severe trauma to her adulthood, where she speed-ran through four wildly volatile marriages. We're talking illegal brothel side-hustles disguised as "bookkeeping," rampant check forgery, and one husband whose survival instincts kicked in so hard he fled for the hills after exactly one week. Listen in as we break down how a diagnosed pathological liar managed to completely rebrand herself into the ultimate "Benevolent Matron." Armed with massive vintage glasses, a fake nephew, and absolutely zero human empathy, she flawlessly manipulated the local social services system into funneling the city's most vulnerable "shadow people" directly into her trap. The most wild plot twist of all? She didn’t even own the murder house—she was just renting it! We are giving you all the diabolical build-up today, outlining the chilling architecture of control she established before the first body even hit the dirt. Make sure you hit subscribe so you don't miss Part Two next week, where the trap finally snaps shut, the shovels come out, and we count the bodies! #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #HotMessMurderClub #DorotheaPuente #DeathHouseLandlady #TrueCrimeCommunity #SerialKillerDocumentary #UnsolvedMysteries #CrimeStorytime #SacramentoHistory #Psychopath #TrueCrimeStories #comedy #fyp #fyp;) #storytime

Never Trust the Cook: The Chronological Shitshow of Nathaniel Bar-Jonah

Cancel your dinner reservations, permanently padlock your chest freezer, and politely decline your neighbor's barbecue invitation for the rest of your natural life. This week on Hot Mess Murder Club, we are serving up the chronological nightmare that is the Nathaniel Bar-Jonah case—and trust us, your appetite will not survive. We are taking you all the way back to the beginning of this absolute dumpster fire of a timeline. Long before he became the 300-pound boogeyman of Great Falls, Montana, dragging a creepy little red wagon around town like a rejected Batman villain, Bar-Jonah was already slipping through the gaping, cavernous loopholes of an epically flawed justice system. We are breaking down his entire history, step by agonizingly frustrating step. For years, this guy was the neighborhood cookout king, handing out "exotic" stews and burgers to a community that really should have asked more questions. We dive deep into the baffling police work, the tragic 1996 disappearance of 10-year-old Zachary Ramsay that finally caused the house of cards to collapse, and the search warrant that uncovered a literal house of horrors. We’re decoding his terrifying, cryptic ledgers that read like a psychopath's deranged recipe book, and roasting the absolute absurdity of his double life. Get ready for a full hour of factual deep-dives, jaw-dropping twists, and enough dark sarcasm to cope with the fact that this monster actually walked among us. 🎧 In this hour-long deep dive, we unpack: The chronological timeline of how a known predator played the system for decades. The little red wagon, the secret codes, and the bizarre double life that fooled an entire town. The infuriating investigation details and the search that finally exposed his sickening reality. The definitive proof that you should never, under any circumstances, eat unidentifiable neighborhood potluck chili. 👇 Drop a 🥩 in the comments if you are officially becoming a vegetarian after this episode! Smash that like button, subscribe, and leave us a 5-star review if you like your true crime heavily seasoned in sarcasm and fully unhinged. #TrueCrime #NathanielBarJonah #HotMessMurderClub #SerialKillerPodcast #trueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #UnsolvedMysteries #DarkHumor #fyp #fyp;) #comedy #serialkillers #justice #podcast

Hog Farms, Affairs, and a 4-Tine Corn Rake: The Murder of Amy Mullis

Welcome to another hour-long descent into madness here at the Hot Mess Murder Club (hmmc). This week, we are diving deep into the absolute circus that is the 2018 murder of Amy Mullis. Get ready for a chronological, factual, and completely chaotic ride through rural Iowa—where the hogs are loud, the marriages are messy, and the farm tools are unexpectedly lethal. We’re taking you back to the beginning. Meet Amy Mullis: a mother of three who felt like a hostage on her husband's multi-million-dollar Earlville hog farm, complete with an "approved friends list" and strict curfews. Meet Todd Mullis: her husband, who loved his pigs, loved his acreage, and absolutely loved Googling human anatomy and "killing women" on the family iPad. You know, just standard "hunter safety" research. Sure, Jan. When Amy decides she's finally had enough of the controlling farm-life prison and sparks up a scandalous affair with the farm manager, Todd’s empire is suddenly threatened by a very expensive divorce. So, what happens next? On a brisk November day, Amy is mysteriously found face-down in the red shed with a heavy-duty corn rake sticking out of her back. Todd’s brilliant, airtight explanation to the police? "She must have tripped!" The medical examiner's response? "Explain how a four-tine rake makes SIX puncture wounds, Todd." Math is hard, but covering up a murder in a barn is apparently harder. Join us for a highly detailed, completely unhinged breakdown of the timeline. We are covering it all: the sheer audacity of Todd's lies, the wild autopsy findings, and the infamous 911 tape where Todd allegedly whispered "cheating wh*re" under his breath while supposedly performing CPR. Grab your iced coffee, lock up your gardening tools, and let's get into the dark, sarcastic, and twisted details of a man who thought he could outsmart the justice system with a pitchfork's ugly cousin. ---------------------------------------- 🎧 Listen now on all platforms! If you love true crime deep dives, solved case timelines, crazy trial moments, and sarcastic storytelling, this full-length true crime podcast episode is for you. We cover the entire timeline from the first red flags to the final courtroom verdict. #TrueCrime #CornRakeMurder #AmyMullis #ToddMullis #TrueCrimeCommunity #IowaMurder #SolvedMysteries #TrueCrimePodcast #MurderMystery #BingeWorthy #TrueCrimecommunity #KillerHusbands #fyp
