  • Poisoned to Death? | The Deaths of Reporter Adan Manzano and Harold Allen
    Feb 20 2025
    Timestamps:
    (7:57) - Poisoning Cases

    In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss two cases where men were possibly drugged to death by women.

    Sports reporter Adan Manzano (27) was found dead with no signs of trauma in his New Orleans hotel room in February 2025. Adan had been in the city to cover the upcoming Super Bowl. When police began investigating, they discovered Adan was last seen with a female ‘career criminal,' Danette Colbert. Danette has a history of drugging and robbing men. It was discovered that Danette used Adan’s credit card after his death. His cause of death is still pending with the Medical Examiner.

    Indiana man Harold Allen died in 2022 from what was initially thought to be natural causes. It was only after his step-daughter, Ashley Jones, staged a robbery that his death was investigated. It came to light that Harold was likely poisoned to death with ethylene glycol by his wife Marsha and Ashley. The women tried multiple times to kill Harold with varying substances before they were successful. After Marsha was questioned by police, she took her own life. Ashley is currently awaiting trial.

  • Dr. Amie Harwick was murdered by her long-term stalker on Valentine's Day
    Feb 13 2025
    Skip the intro: (3:19)

    Dr. Amie Harwick was an established marriage, family and sexuality specialist. She worked in Los Angeles and was highly respected in her field.

    In 2009, Amie began dating a man named Gareth Pursehouse. After 18 months, things turned sour and they broke up. Except, Gareth could not accept the change. He was violent towards Amie and stalked her, forcing her to take out multiple protective orders.

    Amie managed to distance herself from Gareth over the following years. In January 2020, the two had a chance meeting at a public event that Amie was attending and Gareth was working at. This meeting caused Gareth to fly into a rage which terrified Amie.

    On Valentine’s Day 2020, Amie attended a burlesque show with her friends. Gareth waited until she left and he broke into her home. He lay in her bed and waited for. When Amie arrived home, she was brutally attacked by Gareth and he threw her off a balcony, leaving her to die.

    Gareth would go to trial for Amie’s murder and he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

    There have also been some big updates in the ‘suicide’ of Ellen Greenberg. The medical examiner who originally titled Ellen’s death a suicide has now backtracked. "It is my professional opinion Ellen's manner of death should be designated as something other than suicide," Dr Marlon Osbourne said.

Great Podcast to add to your favorites!

I have to start my review with — I love their conversations before they dive into the case! I enjoy hearing what they are doing in their lives and how different the weather, activities, personal dynamics are yet they are still interested in the same things!

They do a great job reviewing both new and old cases. Their case conversations are both funny and insightful. They do a great job researching their cases and bringing the victims and their story to life.

My favorite crime podcast

You ladies are lovely. I find your podcast so enjoyable, even if it does murder and crime. Your episodes are well researched and I really like how you both talk about what's happening in your lives. Don't listen to the trolls who complain. Hope you keep the podcast going. It helps me get through my day. Thanks for all the work you put into it 💜

look forward to this podcast every week

Hosts are down to earth, thorough, and look at the case from multiple perspectives. Both hosts have such calming and beautiful voices. I like the discussions at the beginning. Feels like I'm getting caught up with my friends.
