Seath Jackson was a 15-year-old boy from Ocala, Florida, whose 2011 murder stemmed from a bitter breakup and escalating conflict involving his ex-girlfriend, Amber Wright, and her new boyfriend, Michael Bargo.

Investigators quickly connected the group to Seath’s disappearance, leading to arrests and convictions that revealed a disturbing plot involving jealousy, revenge, and deliberate planning.Click here to join our Patreon. Click here to get your own Inhuman merch. Connect with us on Instagram and join our Facebook group. To submit listener stories or case suggestions, and to see all sources for this episode: https://www.inhumanpodcast.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The murder of 16-year-old Adrianne Reynolds is one of the most heartbreaking and notorious juvenile crime cases in Illinois history. Having just moved to East Moline for a fresh start, Adrianne was a vibrant teen who loved music, dreamed of joining the Marines, and desperately wanted to fit in at her new alternative school. Tragically, her naive trust drew her into a toxic social circle anchored by Sarah Kolb and Cory Gregory. Driven by intense, territorial teenage jealousy over mutual love interests, Kolb and Gregory lured Adrianne into a car and brutally beat and strangle her to death in the backseat. Days later when Gregory confessed, leading police to the evidence and sparking two decades of intense legal drama. Both Kolb and Gregory transitioned while incarcerated—now going by Shane Kolb and Harli Quinn, respectively—both received lengthy prison sentences. While Kolb continues to serve a 53-year term, Quinn's 45-year sentence was recently overturned for a new juvenile resentencing hearing. Through it all, Adrianne's devoted father, Tony Reynolds, has kept his daughter's memory alive, turning their unimaginable grief into a legacy of hope by establishing a memorial GED scholarship fund that has helped hundreds of at-risk youth earn their diplomas.
