  • Payback: The Murder of Ted Ammon, Pt 2

    Payback: The Murder of Ted Ammon, Pt 2
    Nov 22 2024
    In Part One, we met high-powered millionaire Ted Ammon and his…let’s say “eccentric” soon-to-be-ex-wife Generosa. When we left off, the Ammons were embroiled in a vicious divorce and a struggle over Ted’s wealth and custody of their twin children. Generosa, staying at the ritzy Stanhope Hotel, was renovating a townhouse and had just met a young electrician by the name of Danny Pelosi. Join us for part 2 of this wild true story.

    Payback: The Murder of Ted Ammon, Pt 1
    Nov 15 2024
    As much as most of us might try to live easy, conflict-free lives, sometimes you just can’t avoid an uncomfortable interaction. Maybe an unpleasant neighbor gets in your face about nothing at all, maybe someone behind a counter gives you all kinds of attitude, it’s more or less inevitable that sooner or later, someone will throw some grit into the smoothly turning gears of your life. And most of us just deal with it and forget about it. Most of us don’t have actual “enemies,” but the main character in this week’s story made enemies like it was her full-time job. She would burn down years-long friendships over the smallest imagined slight, and if there were an actual, real betrayal—well, she’d burn down your whole life. Join us for part 1 of a story of explosive rage and revenge, set in one of the richest neighborhoods in the world.

  • Let the Right One In: A Halloween Special

    Let the Right One In: A Halloween Special
    Nov 1 2024
    Monsters in folklore are easy for us to comprehend. You can only kill a werewolf with a silver bullet, to stop a zombie for good, you have to destroy its brain, and vampires can’t enter your home without your permission. They also have pretty straightforward motivations. Werewolves: Animalistic rage. Zombies: Brains. Vampires: Blood. Human monsters have motivations that are a lot more opaque. What would possess someone to kidnap a woman in broad daylight? To break into a home in the middle of the night to kill the strangers inside? What if no one saw anything? How do you catch a ghost?Case 1: The Murder of Ethel KiddCase 2: The Miyazawa Family MurdersSources:https://www.theguardian.com/world/2001/jan/07/jonathanwatts.theobserver https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/drumoorhouse/setagaya-family-murders-unsolved https://migration.ucdavis.edu/mn/more.php?id=1784https://tbinternet.ohchr.org/_layouts/15/TreatyBodyExternal/DownloadDraft.aspx?key=ymB6nZIkmtMHmD4fHNtFClpXxLVi5INdtxEH7GVV6SO/J3tQV0Oi1OZsY1fMY0sHi8/+hJhQOuHrWPxzeSFPfA==https://japantoday.com/category/features/kuchikomi/new-book-claims-to-shed-light-on-2000-setagaya-family-murders https://mcsmrampage.com/2020/10/text/ https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/garden-of-unborn-children https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-12-29/the-house-of-horrors-in-setagaya-japan/11771304https://smol.news/p/the-scary-strange-setagaya-family https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHI4Q6bmnnU&t=270shttps://medium.com/the-mystery-box/what-we-really-know-about-the-setagaya-family-murder-a87389875e71 https://www.keishicho.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/multilingual/english/safe_society/wanted/seijo.files/eng.pdf https://www.keishicho.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/multilingual/english/safe_society/wanted/seijo.html Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack, Season 4, Episode 3 https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/1074838/edward-wayne-beverly-v-commonwealth-of-virginia/Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://gramha.net/profile/truecrimecampfire/19093397079Twitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.com

If you love true crime with well-placed banter, this podcast is for you!

I highly recommend anyone into true crime check out this show. I thoroughly enjoy listening while I work my art, and the narrators are hilarious! I love that the jokes are at the expense of the criminals.

a true crime, MUST listen!!

I love these women. They have a natural flow, that's easy to follow and listen to. The incidents/stories are thorough. Also I love their sense of snarky comments! Sorry Morbid, True Crime Campfire is my new #1.

Entertaining commentary

Katie & Whitney crack me up. This is not the first True crime production I've ever experienced but I enjoy the interactions and commentary. Obviously most of these crimes are tragic stories but these ladies present it in an enjoyable way.

Binge Material, Cannot Get Enough!

I find their humor funny and enjoy listening to their unique views on each case as they read along. I have been bingeing the seasons for a week now. I'm unsure when new ones come out? I'll be listening!

I live in Salisbury MD like 40 mins from OC!

love to listen to your podcast. I remember when this happened! I couldn't believe this happened this close to my home. They were crazy! We were all shakin that this could happen in our small town. I've spent hours and days in OC it definitely changes the way you look at your area. But thanks for doing a story from our area. We had a police officer (Keith Heacook) in Delmar murdered , beaten to death after responding to a domestic situation. That would be a good one to do. I don't think anyone has done a story about it. Thanks for your Podcast I like it!
