Hey friends!
On this podcast, we will be talking about all thing’s crime. From murder, to missing persons, to mass shootings, to just plain old spooky! Layered with some lighthearted humor...and some not so lighthearted humor. Please be advised that this podcast is filled with adult content and explicit language; listener discretion is advised.
Happy Pride month! In honor of pride month, we will be covering cases that were catalysts for change in the LGBTQIA2+ community, cases that weren’t investigated due to their connections to the community, and cases that were blatantly ignored due to homophobia. We want to highlight the adversity’s this community has and continues to face as well as the absolute strength and resilience shown throughout history and today.
For our last Pride month episode, we discussed the weird psycho that is Bruce McArthur. He killed in Ontario, Canada from 2010-2017, targeting members of the LGBTQIA2+ community and other marginalized populations taking 8 lives and is suspected to be involved in many cold cases. Bruce was able to continue killing for several years due to police bias towards the LGBTQIA2+ community and, in our opinion, due to some racist feelings within the police department. Our hearts are with the victims that were lost and with those that luckily survived.
Please take a moment to remember the men that lost their lives and the others who nearly lost theirs:
- Abdulbasir Faizi, age 42
- Majeed “Hamid” Kayhan, age 58
- Skandaraj “Skanda” Navaratnam, age 40
- Soroush Mahmudi, age 50
- Andrew Kinsman, age 49
- Selim Esen, age 44
- Dean Lisowick, age 43-44
- Kirushna Kumar Kanagaratnam, age 37
- All victims who were assaulted and survived
WARNING: this episode contains very dark humor and inappropriate laughter
