Harry Powers lied to lonely women during one of the hardest times in American history and turned it into a full-blown system. While people were standing in breadlines and trying to keep their families fed, he was writing letters. Not looking for love—looking for leverage.
He promised wealth, mansions, and stability. What he actually had was a garage behind his wife’s grocery store and a growing ...
Sally McNeil was trained for war, but her real battles happened at home. A former Marine, mother of two, and competitive bodybuilder, Sally spent years trapped in a violent marriage with a man who had the muscles of a champion and the temper of a ticking time bomb. The abuse started early and got worse, escalating from bruises to broken bones, from manipulation to full-blown terr...
Charles Starkweather wasn’t your average small-town kid, and his crime spree wasn’t your average headline. Dragging along Caril Ann Fugate, barely a teenager herself, this pair tore through 1950s Nebraska in a brutal blur nobody saw coming. Was Caril just a scared kid caught in Starkweather’s storm, or something darker? We break down the messy, violent truth behi...

This episode dives into the twisted mind and dark deeds of a man who took advantage of a forgotte...
In May of 1918, a white plantation owner in Georgia was killed by a Black laborer he had beaten and abused. What followed wasn’t a trial or investigation… it was a mob. A violent, racist mob that left 13 people dead, including a pregnant woman and her unborn child. This episode walks through the brutal aftermath of Hampton Smith’s murder, how the system of convict leasing l...
Lisa Knoefel was asleep in her own bed when everything unraveled. Her foster daughter, Sabrina Zunich, was standing over her with a knife… and it wasn’t random, or sudden, or some spur-of-the-moment break. This had been planned. Encouraged. Groomed. And the person behind it wasn’t just a bystander. It was Lisa’s husband.
This episode walks through how a woman who dedicated her life t...
In 2018, Nasim Najafi Aghdam walked into YouTube headquarters with a loaded gun and a personal vendetta. But this story doesn’t start with violence—it starts with viral vegan videos, fitness content, and a YouTube channel that once brought her internet fame. Nasim believed the platform was silencing her. Censoring her. Punishing her for speaking out about animal cruelty. Whether that was true...
In 1978, someone started targeting the most vulnerable people in Los Angeles—men living on the streets of Skid Row. Over the course of a year, eleven of them were stabbed to death. The press called the killer the “Skid Row Stabber,” but despite witness accounts, a creepy bathroom confession, and a guy named Luther who may or may not have existed, the murders stayed unsolved.
Then police arrested Bobby Jo...
Before the headlines. Before the manhunt. Before the courtroom smirks and the fan mail from strangers—Ted Bundy was just a kid with a fake name and a made-up family. In this episode, we’re not talking about what he did. We’re talking about who he was before anyone knew what he was capable of.From a birth certificate stamped “father unknown” to a childhood built on lies, Bundy’s ea...
A man dressed like a FedEx driver knocked on the door of a quiet Texas home. But he wasn’t delivering a package. He was there to deliver payback. Ronald Lee Haskell had a long and ugly history of violence, and on this day, it all came to a head. What followed was a targeted, calculated attack on an entire family, with one survivor who changed everything. This episode walks through the red f...
Eight-year-old Sandra Cantu left her house on a Friday afternoon to play with friends. She never made it home. What followed was a frantic search, a community gripped by fear, and a discovery that would shake even the most seasoned investigators. But what makes this case especially disturbing isn’t just what happened to Sandra—it’s who did it. In this episode, we’re walking through the fin...
Susan Monica built a life most people wouldn’t sign up for. Alone on 20 acres in rural Oregon, she raised pigs, ran a construction business, and kept mostly to herself. But when a handyman disappeared—and a severed leg turned up in her pond—investigators uncovered a story that kept getting stranger. In this episode, we’re unpacking how a woman who seemed like an eccentric farmer ended up...
On the night before her fourteenth birthday, Kelly Tinyes got a phone call that pulled her out of her house—and straight into danger. Hours later, her body was found in a neighbor’s basement, hidden under piles of trash. What followed was a conviction built on brand-new DNA technology, a family left fighting for the full truth, and a man who managed to vanish before anyon...
Julia Bulette didn’t come to Virginia City to become a legend. She came for the same reason everyone else did — to survive. But where most people blended into the dust and desperation, Julia stood out. She fought fires. She nursed the sick. She built a life in a town that didn’t have room for women like her… until it did.
In this episode, we’re pulling back...
Lanny Horwitz built a life most people would envy—real estate success, international travel, the dream house in Boca Raton. But what he couldn’t seem to quit was his high school sweetheart. After two marriages, two divorces, and one seriously tangled family dynamic, Lanny and Donna found themselves under the same roof again.
What came next unraveled a story of long-term resen...
Elliot Rodger wasn’t just angry. He was deeply entitled, profoundly isolated, and convinced that the world owed him something—specifically, attention, sex, and validation. Raised around wealth, fame, and red carpets, he still couldn’t figure out how to talk to people, especially women. And instead of learning, he blamed everyone else.
This episode unpacks how a cocktail of unt...
Andrea Yates was a nurse, a valedictorian, and a mother of five. She was also in and out of psychiatric hospitals, diagnosed with postpartum psychosis and severe depression. Her doctors warned against more pregnancies. Her husband ignored it. And in 2001, after years of spiraling mental health and barely-there support, Andrea did something that made the world stop cold.

Before she was tied to one of Malaysia’s most disturbing murder cases, Mona Fandey was just trying to be a star. She had the stage name, the album, the wardrobe, and a husband willing to bet everything on her big break. But when her pop career stalled out, Mona pivoted—from wannabe celebrity to self-proclaimed spiritual healer for Malaysia’s rich and powerful. That’s when things g...
Therapy is supposed to be a safe space. You talk, they listen, and everything stays in the room. But what happens when someone crosses the line from intrusive thoughts to actual plans to hurt someone?
In this episode of 10 Minute Murder, we’re digging into the 1969 case that forced the legal system to decide when privacy ends and public safety begins. Tatiana Tarasoff had no idea sh...
Arthur Gary Bishop looked like someone you could trust. He was a straight-A student, an Eagle Scout, a missionary, and a respected member of his church community. But under all that was someone no one saw coming, and far too many people never questioned.
