CCTV, Lies, & Murder: Grace Millane
Feb 2301:15:44Tap to summarizeThere are some stories that stay with us—not because of how they end, but because of who is lost. Grace Millane was a young woman with a future, a plan, and a warm spirit that took her across the world. She was exploring new places and doing what so many young people dream of doing—exploring life on her own terms. But Grace’s journey took a devastating and unimaginable turn. Join us for CCTV, Lies, & Murder: Grace Millane. What should have been a celebration of Grace’s 22nd birthday became a tragedy. This podcast isn’t just about a crime but about the life behind the headlines. It’s about Grace: her kindness, her courage, her hopes, and the world she was eager to explore. Together, we’ll examine her final days, the investigation that followed, and reflect on the impact her loss left on all who knew her. Because Grace deserves to be remembered not for what happened to her, but for who she was.

Transcribe →Shirt-Tail Alley: The Murder of Theora Hix
Feb 901:13:15Tap to summarizeJust outside of Columbus, Ohio, in the early summer of 1929, two teenage boys set out to settle a friendly argument over who was the better shot. The sky was clear after a night of rain—and the world was only months away from the Great Depression. But that morning, in a field known to locals as “Shirt‑Tail Alley,” the boys discovered something that would ignite one of the most scandalous murder investigations in history. Join us for Shirt-Tail Alley: The Murder of Theora Hix. The body of Theora was there in the tall grass, brutally beaten and unrecognizable. Within hours she would be identified as a twenty-four‑year‑old medical student at Ohio State University. As police scrambled for answers, a shocking truth emerged, exposing a web of secret relationships, illicit rendezvous, and a killer no one would ever have suspected.

She had a handsome husband, two beautiful children, and a high-paying job that she loved. Her marriage, however, was a disaster. Her husband Rod could not, or would not, hold down a job. He was convinced he could earn a living off of his passion: playing backgammon! Rod also had a weakness for other women. Over the years, he had too many affairs to count. As if that isn’t bad enough, this apparently charming husband and father had become mentally and physically abusive. Join us at the quiet end for Something’s Wrong with Mommy. When Shele finally reached her breaking point, she and Rod separated. Shele prepared for a divorce and made plans to move forward in life. Unfortunately, before the divorce was finalized, Shele was found dead in her own bath tub. Was it an accident? Was it murder? There would be much speculation and some fascinating details would be brought to the surface before everything was said and done.

Jan 2901:06:48Tap to summarizeThe Search for Becky Godden-Edwards & Sian O’ Callaghan Please enjoy this re-release of a premium episode from 2022—to get all of our premium, ad-free shows, subscribe at tiegrabber.com/subscribe Becky Godden-Edwards went missing in early 2003, but her remains weren’t recovered until 2011. The main reason for this delay was Becky’s lifestyle. She was a heroin addict and a sex worker, given to long absences from her home. The last time her mother saw her alive, Becky told her, “I’ll come home when I’m clean.” Join us at the quiet end for Finding Becky. Becky was not found until her killer confessed to the murder of another young woman, Sian O’Callaghan. After he confessed to killing Becky, a legal loophole prevented his confession from being presented as evidence. It took five years, but with the persistent efforts of Becky’s grieving mother, the confession was ultimately admitted in a trial and her killer was brought to justice. Still, the suspicions of more unidentified victims linger to this day. Sources A Killer’s Confession by Karen Edwards A Confession, TV limited series on ITV Judiciary of England and Wales v.

Transcribe →The Grudge
Dec 2200:57:15Tap to summarizeAnthony Garcia seemed to have made it. He had overcome a severe learning disability to earn a medical degree from the University of Utah. Afterwards, he was admitted into the Pathology program at Creighton University. However, he washed out of that program and the two that followed. Garcia seemed to have weathered these setbacks, but then four murders were committed five years apart. And all four of the victims had ties to Creighton University’s Pathology Program. Were the murders somehow connected? It was difficult to believe that someone could have held a deadly grudge for so long. Join us at the quiet end for The Grudge. As we dissect this fascinating case, we’ll tell you about Anthony Garcia’s childhood, his difficulties in medical school and residencies, and the unhinged life Garcia was living when these murders were committed.

Join us for Behind the Veil: Diane Newton King. Behind the wedding vows, the smiles, and the years of building and sustaining a family, there lurked a dark truth which threatened to destroy everything.

Nov 2100:58:31Tap to summarizeMichelle Herndon seemed to have it all. She was nearing completion of her degree and had a bright future ahead of her. She was engaged to a wonderful man. She had a lot of plans for her future. The only negatives for Michelle were her migraine headaches, which were excruciating. She had tried many medications and remedies, including alternative medications, without much success. Then she met Oliver O’Quinn, a new roommate of her best friend. Oliver was an ICU nurse at Shands Teaching Hospital, and he had a medication that could benefit Michelle: Propofol. This medication worked wonders for Michelle. The only problem was that Oliver was infatuated with Michelle, and when his affection was not reciprocated, it led to deadly consequences.
