The Case of JaQuinn Brewton

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to discuss the tragic case of JaQuinn Brewton - an adorable toddler who went to stay with his godmother, Nadera Batson, and her boyfriend after his mother became homeless. But what was supposed to be a safe situation for little JaQuinn turned deadly after Nadera began beating him for hours, scalding his feet with hot water, and burning his backside with a kitchen blowtorch. Many people potentially heard what was going on inside of the apartment, but no one actually did anything to stop it.

The Case of Diane Downs

This week, Drewby and Yergy head back in time to Springfield, Oregon, on the evening of May 19th, 1983. A 27-year-old mother of three is driving down some back roads with her three children. Hungry Like the Wolf by Duran Duran is playing on the radio, when suddenly, a bushy-haired man flags the family down for help. Their carefree evening changes in an instant when the man pulls a gun and attempts to carjack the young family, and all three children are murdered in the process. But, who was this man? And did this scenario even actually happen 41 years ago?

The Case of Jennifer Smith

This week, Drewby and Yergy head up to the county to discuss the case of Jennifer Smith. Jennifer was a girl living in Northern Maine who came from a troubled home. Her father, James Smith, not only sexually assaulted her and her sister, but raped and attempted to kill a woman in North Carolina. After serving 5 years in prison, James moved back in with his family and changed his name to Matthew Wilson. However, just 2-years later, James (now Matthew) would set his sights once more on his daughter, Jennifer, and a tragedy that should have been prevented occurred.

The Case of Malinda Hoagland

This week, Drewby and Yergy head back to Pennsylvania to discuss the case of Malinda Hoagland, a beautiful little girl who, as the baby, was adored by her whole family. That all went out the window, however, when her father, Rendell Hoagland, found "love" once more... Cindy Warren was an abusive woman who had Rendell wrapped around his finger... So much so that he participated in the abuse and murder or his youngest daughter.

The Case of Kimberly Cates

This week, Drewby and Yergy head south to New Hampshire to discuss the case of Kimberly Cates, a mother from Mont Vernon who was killed in her bed after a group of teenage boys agreed to take “a test to make sure that we had the balls to do whatever.” That test was the brutal assault of a mother and daughter, with mom being hacked at 32 times.

The Case of Olivia Gant

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Littleton, Colorado, to discuss the tragic case of Olivia Gant. Olivia was a little girl who became the victim of Munchausen's Syndrome By Proxy. Her mother, Kelly Turner, began blogging about her daughter's fake illnesses, and bullied countless surgeons at the Children's Hospital of Colorado into performing dangerous and unnecessary procedures on little Olivia. Kelly collected thousands of dollars in charitable donations, gifts, and state benefits on behalf of her "sick" daughter. In the end, Olivia passed away after being starved to death in hospice. No one who should have recognized the horrors that Kelly was inflicting stepped up to save the little girl.

The Case of Stevie Osborn

This week, Drewby and Yergy head back to Kansas City, Missouri, to discuss the tragic case of Stevie Osborn, and her father's fight for justice. As of the date of this recording in 2024, no one living is being held accountable for Stevie's death. Big shout out to Laine from Suffer The Little Children Podcast for breaking this case... something the local news media couldn't be bothered to do for Stevie.
