A man wakes up from being brain dead while having his organs harvested. Denmark has a unique way of controlling their pet population, and a man who looks like an overly tattooed Henry Rollins, is upset because porn facial recognition thinks he's wearing a mask. Oh and the most French crime ever, and a story that hits a little too close to home.

Intro Song: Fishtown by True Crime Guys (soon to be released on spotify)
Lyrics:
Verse 1
He was on his way to meet her
He didn’t know what to say
He wasn’t gonna mess this up
He just got paid
She was on her way to meet him
She knew just what to say
This wasn’t her first rodeo
And he just got paid.
Chorus:
With Friends like these
Its like placing bets
Welcome to Fishtown
Don’t get caught in the nets
With friends like these
You don’t get what you see
There’s sharks in Fishtown
They just look like teen(s)(agers)
Verse 2:
They stalked him in the shadows
It had to be today
Just before the drugs wear off
Their conscience fades away
And everything that’s left
Is sure to find a way
To make this feeling last
Just one more day

Cory Lovelace was found dead in her bed on Valentine’s Day, so naturally the local rumor mill started peddling the idea that her husband, Curtis, had killed her. The only problem is this case is full of plot holes that no one wanted/or cared enough to find the answers to. At least until 8 years later when a new detective decides to take another look at the case, but was Curtis still being wrongly accused?
Curtis Lovelace, was eventually charged with the murder of his wife, Cory, and his first trial was labeled a mistrial. Curtis got another trial, and this time things were different… But what really happened?

Four students hatched a plan to steal some very rare books and it became known as the Transylvania University heist in 2004, or Transy Book Heist. The plan was to break into the school's Special Collection in the Rare Books Room, swipe the books and sell them for millions of dollars….easy peasy. But of course things didn't quite go all Oceans 11, but the heist did inspire its own docu-movie!

Today we’re talkin’ the story of Andrew Carter Thornton II and his drug smuggling shenanigans. How exactly this cop turned into a drug smuggler in the first place, and how the hell we’re gonna end up on “cocaine bear”, I have no idea. Let’s head back to the 80’s! Also this was made into a movie in 2023, just fyi.

A mail carrier in trouble with his supervisors opened fire in a crowded post office on August 21st 1986, killing 14 workers and injuring 7 others before killing himself with a bullet in the head. The police said the carrier, Patrick Henry Sherrill, of Oklahoma City, burst into post office around 6:45 A.M., pulled at least three pistols from a mail pouch and, without a word, started shooting at his fellow employees.
It was the nation's worst shooting since July 18, 1984, when 21 people, including the gunman, died at a McDonald's restaurant in San Ysidro, California, and it helped coin the term "going postal".
