In April 2023, 56-year-old Michael Dale paid over $11,000 to spend the night with OnlyFans model Michaela Rylaarsdam. Hours later, he was found with his entire head wrapped in plastic and duct tape, and women’s shoes glued to his feet. Michaela told police it was consensual BDSM gone wrong. But investigators found videos on her phone showing Dale struggling to breathe—footage she allegedly recorded for her subscribers. She was charged with murder in 2025. Prosecutors say he was too drunk to consent. Her team says it was a tragic accident. What do you think—murder, or a fatal mistake? Get all the crime in half the time!

In 1993, 22-year-old Anabel Segura was kidnapped while jogging in Madrid's La Moraleja neighborhood. Her family and the police spent almost three years looking for her after her kidnappers made them believe she was still alive.  A clue in a ransom tape led the police to identify and arrest the kidnappers after realizing Anabel was long gone. The kidnappers were sentenced to lengthy prison terms, but only served a fraction of their sentences before being released. Anabel’s story left a lasting impact, and her legacy continues to be honored in Madrid with a cultural center named after her.  What do you think about her killers being allowed to walk free?

In 1995, 15-year-old Nicole van den Hurk disappeared on her way to work in the Netherlands. Weeks later, she was found dead in the woods—but despite multiple leads, no arrests were made, and the case went cold. Sixteen years later, her stepbrother Andy made a shocking move: he falsely confessed to the crime. His goal? To force police to reopen the case and test for DNA. Andy’s confession helped break the case open, and new evidence pointed to Jos de G., a man with a criminal record. He was later convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 12 years—but not for murder. Andy, who struggled with mental health and addiction, passed away in 2021 at age 46. After years of fighting for justice, his story ended in tragedy. Did Nicole or her family ever truly get justice?

A man posing as a delivery driver walked into a Lane Bryant store in Tinley Park, Illinois. Within 40 minutes, five women were executed—shot in the back of the head.
