On this brand new episode of Crime Talk with Stef, we discuss the early lives of Erik and Lyle Menendez, the infamous brothers whose brutal crime shocked America in the late eighties. Before the headlines and courtroom drama, they were two boys growing up in a seemingly perfect, affluent family. Join us as we explore their upbringing, family dynamics, and the factors that may have set the stage for the tragedy to come. Uncover the layers of privilege, pressure, and dysfunction that defined their childhood and shaped them into the men they would become. This is part one of a multiple-part series.
Trigger Warnings for mentions of violence and murder by firearms and graphic descriptions of the crime scene and injuries sustained by the victims. Listener discretion is advised.

On today's episode of 90's Crime Talk with Stef, we delve into the heartbreaking case of the San Antonio Four, a group of four women whose lives were irreversibly changed by a miscarriage of justice. This story begins in the early 1990s when Elizabeth Ramirez, Anna Vasquez, Cassandra Rivera, and Kristie Mayhugh, four close friends living in San Antonio, Texas, were accused of an absolutely heinous crime that would shake their lives to the core.
As we explore the case, we talk about the investigation (or lack thereof) and trials that led to the women's wrongful convictions. We also discuss the role of societal prejudices, homophobia, and the "Satanic panic" hysteria that influenced the case's outcome. During our discussion, our understanding of the case grows (as does our anger) as we learn of the devastating impact of the system's failure on the lives of these women and their loved ones.Trigger Warnings: homophobia and mentions/descriptions of sexual assault.

On today’s episode we discuss the shocking case of Diane Zamora and David Graham aka the Killer Cadets. In the early 1990s, their seemingly perfect high school romance took a very sinister and evil turn, leaving an entire community stunned and shattered.
Join us as we unravel the twisted web of deceit, jealousy, and obsession that led these star-crossed lovers down the path of murder. Diane, a promising cadet at the United States Naval Academy, and David, an ambitious student with dreams of military glory, became entangled in a fateful love triangle that would have tragic consequences for all parties involved.
You will definitely feel a wave of emotions (mostly a lot of anger and WTF) as we uncover the chilling events leading up to the crime, the heinous crime itself, and the trial that gripped the nation. You will be left questioning the nature of love, loyalty, and the depths of human depravity.
Trigger Warnings for: murder, violence, graphic description of injuries, and victim-blaming.

Welcome back to Part 2 and the conclusion of our Jeffrey Dahmer deep dive. Jeffrey Dahmer, one of the most notorious serial killers in American history, was finally captured in July 1991 when police came across a frantic, handcuffed, and partially naked man who had managed to escape Jeffrey's apartment. The man led the officers back to the apartment where they discovered gruesome evidence of his crimes, including polaroids of dismembered bodies and preserved body parts. This marked the beginning of the end for Jeffrey's reign of terror. Trigger warnings for: graphic descriptions of violence, mutilation, dismemberment, sexual violence, cannibalism, and murder. Listener discretion is as always strongly advised.

Talk shows of the 90's were a vibe and none of todays shows could hold a candle to any of them. They are close but not quite there...
If you were like us, you were running home after school to tune into Ricky Lake. Lest we forget those summer days when we rolled out of bed, poured our cereal, turned on the tv and tuned into Jerry Springer. If it wasn't Paternity tests on Maury, it was Oprah giving something away for free. One things for sure, we learned a lot from Talk shows and we had endless options on all channels to choose from. Tune in and see if we named any of your favorites. -
