GBNF: A True Crime Podcast

134. The Lululemon Murder: The Murder of Jayna Murray

On the night of March 11th, 2011 two employees were working together at the Lululemon store in Bethesda, Maryland and they closed the store together.  When the employees left the store one of the women reportedly left her purse behind in the store by accident and made contact with the second employee to meet her at the store so that she could retrieve her belongings.  It was reported that the two women were followed into the store by two masked assailants who proceeded to physically and sexually assault both women, ultimately resulting in the death of one of them.  Police however quickly discovered that not everything was as it seemed in their investigation into the murder and very quickly the truth came out.

133. The Disappearance of Emily Bailey

Emily Bailey has been missing since January 1st, 2022 when she disappeared in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.  Emily is a daughter, a sibling, a friend and most of all a mother.  This week we are going to cover her case and appeal to the public to keep her name, her face and her story out in the public eye so that hopefully, mercifully, this tragic case will come to a conclusion one way or another for everyone that is involved.  As we will discuss, it is believed that there is a person or people who know what happened to Emily and know where she, or her remains are.

132. The Disappearance of Brenda Byman

Just over 63 years ago now a young 12-year-old girl would go away to spend some time with her grandmother in Wilmer, British Columbia and she would go to play with some of the local children and wind up spending the night.  The following day however circumstances would lead to her disappearance and even though one of the largest searches in British Columbia history would take place and even though there were so many stories that didn’t line up, a family to this day has still not received any answers as to what happened to their daughter and their sister.

131: The Deaths of Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan

As we have covered in recent episodes, people are seemingly killing one another for reasons that are frankly stupider and stupider.  Murder has become an answer to struggles, strife and issues that many people face daily in their lives.  This week we are going to look at a case where two young men, Dominic Russo who was 20 and his friend Davion Flanaghan, who was 19, lost their lives in a  car crash that the courts deemed to not only be planned and carried out on purpose but even foretold prior to the event happening by the driver, 17-year-old Mackenzie Shirilla.

130. The Calgary Mass Stabbing

On April 15th, 2014 the city of Calgary Alberta Canada would be absolutely rocked with the news of the deadliest mass murder in the city’s history.  One young man would stab five young adults to death at a house party that was being held to celebrate the end of the winter semester at the University of Calgary.  One man was responsible for the lives of five people being taken and now, just over ten years later there are a lot of moves being made to try and give the killer some semblance of a life, something that his victims, nor their families, will ever get the chance to have again.

129. The Murder of Skylar Neese

High school can really and truly be some of the hardest years of a young person’s life.  Within those walls teenagers are trying to find out who they are, who they want to be and where they fit into the world around them.  Usually that includes making a tight knit group of friends and those people generally become your ride-or-die partners, if not for the rest of your life, at least for those high school years.  Two weeks ago we took a look at the case of Brianna Ghey and the way that a friend and that friend’s acquaintance brutally murdered Brianna because of a mixture of sadism and hatred.  This week we are going to look at a case where two friends, seemingly not driven by very much at all, make the decision to murder a very close friend of theirs in cold blood and they the carried on their lives, for a time, as though nothing had happened and they had no idea what had happened to their missing friend.

128. The Disappearance of Hannah Upp

Over all of the episodes that we have talked about here on the podcast I don’t think that we have ever covered one that is quite like this one in so many ways.  This week we are going to talk about a young woman who went missing not once, not twice, but three different times within her life and sadly she has not been heard of or found since her last disappearance.  This is a case that covers a contentious, with some people, diagnosis, a young woman who seemed truly and wholly like the best person that anyone could ever meet and a story that has as many twists and turns as one could possibly handle.

127. The Murder of Brianna Ghey

In a world that is filled with crime and murder and people doing unexplainable and awful things to one another one of the worst things that I can find to read and write about is the killing of children by other children.  As we are going to see in this case today our children are growing up in a world that is sick and our children are growing up in a world that seemingly breeds hatred around each and every corner.  This week we are going to talk about a very young trans-gendered girl who was lured out of her home by someone that she considered one of her very few friends and another teen with their soul goal being to murder her.  This story has so many sides to it that are sad and distressing.  We have teens, children really, who are riddled with anxiety, dealing with autism spectrum disorder and being influenced by one another, the world around them and so much hate.  This is a case that covers the horrifying and far-to-soon end to one life at the hands of two people who were, and are, clearly dealing with a plethora of their own issues, not the least of which were sadism and hatred.

126: The Murders of Bobby, Sherilynn and Madyson Jamison

There have certainly been cases where entire family’s have disappeared under strange circumstances over the years.  In many case it is believed that the family’s simply needed to, or wanted to, start a new life and went off the grid to do so.  This week though we are going to look into a case that is certainly much more sinister than that and even though the remains of a husband, wife and young daughter were recovered, proving that they did not disappear purposely, there still are no concrete answers, no suspects and there has been no resolution whatsoever to what happened to them.  Over the years many theories abound as to what may have happened in this case and investigators themselves have even said that most people investigating murder would wish for the evidence that they have in this case, and yet, the evidence seems to point in many directions without any clear path to take to solve the crimes.

125. The Disappearance of Kirsten Hatfield

Out of the 51 States that make up the United States of America, Oklahoma is ranked 14th highest when it comes to their Crime Index rating.  Oklahoma had a violent crime rating of 4.20 which is just above the national median of 4.  The odds of becoming a victim of a violent crime are approximately 1 in 238 in the state.   Last year there were 270 reports of murder, 2313 reports of rape, 1632 reports of robbery and 12656 reports of assault.  The ratios per capita in the state rank above the national average for murder, rape and robbery and below the national average for assault.  This week we are going to focus in on the state of Oklahoma and talk about one of the most troubling things to talk about within true crime, the disappearances and murders of young children.  We will focus in this week on a case where the young lady at the centre of the case is believed to have been murdered and the believed culprit was murdered in prison.  In this case however, no body has ever been recovered and as always there is a massive plea for information  to finally close this case in one form or fashion.
