Real Life Real Crime | #JusticeForBradley ep 17

Host: Woody Overton | Date: October 11, 2025

Overview:

This powerful and unique episode of Real Life Real Crime centers on Woody Overton’s continued investigation into the disappearance and likely murder of Bradley, a case fraught with local corruption, generational secrets, and a tangle of community silence. The focus of this episode is on the mysterious and controversial role of psychic tips in unsolved cases—a series of detailed messages delivered by “La Luna Bell,” a spiritual channeler not from Louisiana, who claims to communicate with Bradley’s spirit. Woody provides updates on the investigation and shares extensive firsthand channeled messages from La Luna Bell, inviting listeners to consider, validate, or question her visions and to call in further tips.

1. Woody’s Investigation Progress & Plea for Tips

[03:38]

• Woody opens recounting ongoing tips coming into his investigation and highlights the overwhelming nature of follow-ups as a solo investigator.
• He stresses the complexity of reviewing both credible and outlandish leads (including those involving supernatural explanations or conspiracy theories).
• Woody calls out local authorities in Vernon Parish for inaction:

  "All you have to do to make me go away is... do what you should have done in the beginning, which is make the arrest. That simple." (Woody Overton, [05:30])

• He urges listeners to keep providing information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, and to remain persistent for Bradley and his family’s sake.

2. The Role of Psychics in Real-Life Cases

[07:45]

• Woody shares skepticism and past hesitations about psychic input while admitting that one such tip in a former homicide case “turned the investigation around,” although he could never include it in an official police report.

  "I had to look at it and guess what? It fucking turned out... ended up breaking the case." (Woody Overton, [09:33])

• He distinguishes between “gifted” psychics (rooted in intuition, faith, and honest effort) and those who use tools like spirit boxes, which make him uncomfortable.

3. Introducing La Luna Bell – The Spiritual Channeler

[11:58]

• Woody introduces “La Luna Bell,” a spiritual medium with a notable online presence who experienced a faith transformation after widowhood.
• La Luna Bell’s channeling comes through prayer, spiritual journaling, and is described as infused with deep compassion:

  “She has a professional name... La Luna Bell. It means the beautiful moon. She grew up in the South, raised around faith. After losing her husband... she turned her pain and loss into purpose.” (Woody Overton, [13:50])

• Woody assures listeners of her credibility and the depth of her commitment, distinguishing her work from generic or ‘dark’ psychic practices.

4. Key Psychic Revelations from La Luna Bell

[26:10 – 60:41]
This section features La Luna Bell’s raw channelings, covering cryptic references, places, numbers, and vivid recollections believed to come from Bradley. Notable content and times are summarized here:

A. Detailed Clues and Metaphors

[26:10 – 31:32]

• References to “bank, corner bank, chief” and “orange jumpsuit” — suspected ties to prominent town figures and possibly to corrupt local power structures.
• Multiple mentions of “board members... established family connections and corruption... banking, insurance, and old family names.”
• Numbers: “742” as important, “six-digit number” possibly linked to a deposit or routing number, references to a “vanilla folder” and “vanilla scent” choking sensation—possibly symbolic of a woman in the investigation.
• Heavy feelings: "It’s overwhelming. It’s choking me. This is how... he can’t breathe." (La Luna Bell, [27:38])—interpreted viscerally through her channeling as evidence of Bradley’s last moments.

B. Trafficking, Exploitation, and Locations

[28:30 – 33:47]

• Imagery of “small private plane, aerial surveillance,” and “chain gangs”—hinting at systems profiting off the incarcerated.
• “Dumping grounds” tied to an “old cemetery,” located near “the original bayou, shaped like a cul-de-sac,” active in local criminal disposal.
• Emphasis on repeated directions: “second left” down “Old White Man’s Road,” indicating the site’s importance.

  “The further I go down… there is a lot of souls here, a lot of tragedy, a lot of trafficking occurs.” (La Luna Bell, [30:56])

C. The Blackmail Network and Graphic Details

[33:47 – 36:00]

• Details of coded blackmail material: encrypted disks, code books, direct blackmail involving “three judges, two lawyers" termed "book of judgment.”
• Candid admissions about pervasive “family history of sexual… rape and abuse,” generational crimes.

D. Vivid Channeling of Bradley’s Death

[36:02 – 48:33]

• Descriptions of scenes:
  • “Running toward the bridge... water on my right, woods on my left. I am on the left bank of the river... very skinny, neon white, covered in mosquito bites. Shirtless, wearing jeans and brown/tan sandals.” (La Luna Bell, [39:54])
  • The presence of a female—described as tough, possibly in "Lee jeans," called "tiny dancer,” “boyish figure.”
  • Gunshots: "Two shots. He's hit in the head... left lower jaw... my tongue was hanging out. I couldn't talk." (La Luna Bell, [42:32])
  • Emphasizes betrayal, suggests a woman was central in the fatal attack, with men looking on from a bridge.
  • “He was covered in mosquito bites... They took my EpiPen. They knew I was allergic. I couldn’t breathe.” ([47:30])—specifics that could be cross-checked with evidence.

E. Repeated Occult Numbers, Names, and Landmarks

• Locations: "Cornfield," "silver/tan F150 truck, early-70s model," "Old White Man’s Road," "old slave cemetery," "Porcupine Hill."

  “He shows, says three-way. He goes three-way turn right down slight hill, very narrow road, foliage on both sides, deep, dark, green, abundant.” ([60:41])

5. Community Engagement: Woody’s Call to Action

[22:11, 25:20, 62:50]

• Woody urges listeners, especially those from Vernon Parish/Louisiana, to listen closely to the clues—reminding them:

  "There is so much detailed information that she is not from Louisiana, not even close... It'll make you scratch your head and go, 'so listen to it.'" (Woody Overton, [22:14])

• Invites further corroboration, speculation, or contradiction—particularly regarding locations, people, names, and timelines mentioned by La Luna Bell.

6. Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
