Make sure you follow True Crime Tradies Podcast wherever you listen!Op and the Tradies examine the swatting case involving Tyler Barriss, in which an argument between online gamers traveled hundreds of miles before reaching the front door of a man in Wichita, Kansas, who had nothing to do with it.From California, Barriss made a 911 call describing a violent hostage situation at an address supplied to him by people he had never met. Police responded believing lives were in immediate danger. Inside the house was Andrew Finch, unaware of the online dispute—or why armed officers were suddenly outside his home.One phone call had turned something happening behind computer screens into something very real.When emergency services become the weapon, who actually pulled the trigger?Hugs ❤️Want to support the show?

Op examines the case of Krystal Rose Farmer and the February 2026 welfare check that brought Flint Township police to a home where two children with special needs had been left alone.The call came from a concerned neighbor. What officers encountered inside immediately changed the nature of the response: no adult, little accessible food, and living conditions that suggested the children had been surviving on their own for far longer than anyone should have allowed.As investigators worked to determine where their mother had been and how the situation reached this point, one neighbor’s decision to make a phone call became increasingly consequential.How bad does something have to become before the person next door decides it can no longer be ignored?Hugs ❤️Dont...

🚨⚠️THIS IS PART 02 OF A SPECIAL 2-PART EPISODE 🚨⚠️2 hours. The 2 hours before the shooting changed everything.In this two-part episode, Op examines the 2023 shooting inside Richneck Elementary School, where a 6-year-old first grader brought a handgun to school and shot his teacher, Abigail Zwerner, in her classroom.But the shooting was only the beginning of the story.What followed pulled investigators, prosecutors, school administrators, and the child’s family into separate legal battles over how the gun became accessible, what adults knew beforehand, and whether warnings inside the school were ignored. Those questions eventually moved from classrooms and police reports into criminal court and a civil trial.When the person who pulls the trigger is only six years old, where does responsibility actually begin? And how does this end?Hugs ❤️I can't think of a single way that you could support the show. Even if you wanted to...

Op examines the case of Brianna Roush and Nicholas Lee, whose two young children became critically ill after being exposed to fentanyl inside the family’s Circleville, Ohio, apartment.One child survived. Their 20-month-old son did not.As police began working backward from the hospital, the focus quickly shifted to what had been happening inside the home—and how something capable of killing in such a tiny amount had come within reach of two children. The answers would force investigators to look closely at the environment Roush and Lee had created around their family.When danger becomes part of everyday life, how long before the people least able to understand it pay the price?Hugs ❤️Support my research and writing + get ad-free episodes on Patreon.

I uploaded it before this episode, so go back in time to find it 😎Op examines the 2009 death of Jeremy Simko, who was found shot in his bed inside the rural Ohio home he shared with his wife, Julene.Julene’s frantic 911 call described an intruder, unexplained noises in the house, and the desperate discovery of her husband. But the Simkos lived behind layers of security, with dogs positioned around the property and firearms close at hand. The scene presented investigators with a basic problem: if someone had entered that house, how had they done it without leaving a clearer path behind them?Years would pass before authorities believed they finally understood what happened inside the Simko home that morning.When a house is built to keep danger out, what happens when the danger is already inside?Hugs ❤️
