Kill List: Exposing the Darknet's Deadly Marketplace - Part 1

Inside Carl Miller’s Killer Podcast Helen and Martin are joined by investigative journalist Carl Miller, creator of the hit podcast Kill List, as he reveals a chilling story of a dark web assassination marketplace, where users paid in cryptocurrency to have real people killed. With thousands of names, detailed profiles, and conversations unfolding in real time, Carl navigates the terrifying line between online fantasy and real-world violence. We dive deep into cases of domestic betrayal, obsession, and power-driven crimes, including the shocking story of Amy Allwine, whose tragic fate unfolded despite police warnings, and Dr. Ronald Ilg, a respected doctor leading a sinister double life. Discover how Carl and his team worked in the shadows to warn potential victims, navigate police bureaucracy, and expose the human desperation fueling these crimes. This episode explores intimate partner violence, the psychology of control, and the modern digital underworld, providing an unflinching look at how ordinary people can become perpetrators and targets of extreme online plots.  Tune in for a gripping, real-world true crime story that reveals how the internet can amplify the darkest impulses—and the courage it takes to confront them.
