Mississippi Still Burning!

Hey Slaycaters! This week we're turning the tables on our usual vacation nightmare, because this time it's the killer who's doing the traveling! In July 2022, 23-year-old Kayla Hodgson was living in South Florida and dating a man whose ex-girlfriend, Sakiyna Thompson, wasn't exactly thrilled about their new relationship. And when Kayla blocked Sakiyna on social media after receiving threatening messages, that was the final insult. What followed was a shocking act of violence that would leave one young woman dead and two families devastated. Join us for a disturbing tale of jealousy, obsession, and a trip to Florida that was anything but a getaway. As always, thanks for Slaycating with us, and please stay safe out there!

Hey Slaycaters! This week we're heading to the beautiful shores of northern Michigan, where a summer family vacation turned into an unimaginable nightmare. In June 1968, businessman Richard Robison, his wife Shirley, and their four children were spending time at their summer cottage in the peaceful community of Good Hart when they were visited by unspeakable evil.  It would be nearly a month before anyone even discovered the horrifying truth. Who would want an entire family dead? And what could possibly motivate someone to commit such a brutal crime?  The truth, as they say, is out there.  As always, thanks for Slaycating with us, and please stay safe out there!

Hey Slaycaters. If you're ever thinking about visiting Mississippi... maybe don't. To think a case like this could still happen in 2022 is simply unthinkable and unacceptable. This episode brings you the deeply disturbing case of Rasheem Carter, a 25-year-old who traveled to Mississippi for contract work. It took just a few days on the job for him to become afraid enough for his safety to contact his mother and local authorities. What happened next, and the troubling response from law enforcement, would leave his family fighting for answers and justice. As always, thanks for Slaycating with us, and please stay safe out there!

Hey Slaycaters. Get ready to have your heart broken. In 1996, 17-year-old Canadian Rebecca Middleton was on vacation in Bermuda when her life was brutally cut short. But the tragedy didn't end with her brutal murder. A deeply flawed investigation and a series of legal missteps would leave her family fighting for justice for years to come. This is easily one of the hardest cases we’ve ever covered and we guarantee it will stay with you. If there is any upside to stories like this (or our show in general) it’s pointing out when and where grave injustice occurs so you’re better informed when it’s time to make your own vacation plans.  As always, thanks for Slaycating with us, and please stay safe out there!

Hey Slaycaters! Once again we find ourselves taking a trip to the dark side of paradise! In 2018, Long Island attorney Marie Kuhnla traveled to the beautiful Turks and Caicos for what should have been a relaxing tropical getaway. But her vacation came to a shocking and tragic end. What followed was a disturbing case that raised serious questions about the investigation, the people connected to it, and whether Marie's family would ever get the answers they were looking for. With no criminal charges filed and years of legal battles still to contend with, this is a case about a resort that is all-inclusive — except justice.

Hey Slaycaters! It’s time for another trip to the dark side of paradise! Thailand’s tropical islands are famous for their beautiful beaches, wild parties, and carefree vacation vibes. But in 2023, a meeting between a Colombian surgeon and a ‘celebrity YouTube chef’ who happens to be the son of a famous Spanish actor took a shocking turn. Instead of celebrating the Full Moon party, resort-goers set off on a full search party to find the missing surgeon. What they would find—and who was responsible—would change many lives forever, and not in a good way. As always, thanks for Slaycating with us, and please stay safe out there!
