The Zizians: A Murderous Transgender Vegan Cult? 1:25:38

πριν 4 μέρες1:25:38

1:25:38

Content Warning: This episode discusses murder, suicide, and other sensitive or controversial topics. Ooof. This one is a full-blown inferno, and it is STILL DEVELOPING. Meet the Zizians—who refer to themselves as—wait for it—the Vegan Siths. *Cue "The Imperial March"* This case unravels the shocking layers of a radical faction of rationalists who, despite preaching altruism, have left a trail of brutality in their wake . With at least four brutal murders and two additional deaths linked to the group, their ideology has mutated from intellectual posturing into a twisted labyrinth of suicide, faked deaths, crime, deception, and murder. This culty group, led by the enigmatic Jack Amadeus “Ziz” LaSota, the Zizians believe they are the masterminds of a better world—until their so-called rationalism turned into something totally irrational, super warped, and very, very dangerous. Murders, fugitives, and a tangled mess of legal chaos later, the question remains: Were these people already broken before they found rationalism, or did rationalism break them ? And with some members still at large, is the story really over? Buckle up—because this isn’t just another cult story. This is a real-time unraveling of a belief system gone deadly.

Some call it luck, some call it fate—but one thing’s for sure, Death took a serious L on this one. In this Shortcide , we’re bringing you two cases of two different people who repeatedly dodged death like it was their full-time job. Chelsea covers the outrageous tale of a man named Frane Selak, who seemed to have a VIP pass to disaster—but somehow always walked away. And Bailey tells the unbelievable story of Violet Jessop, a woman who kept finding herself in the middle of history’s most infamous maritime catastrophes… and lived to tell the tale. From fiery crashes to sinking ships, these stories will have you questioning whether some people are just built different. Just between these two, the Grim Reaper could count on both hands how many times he missed his mark. Thanks for listening!

After authorities dismantled Welcome to Video , the largest known child exploitation marketplace on the dark web, the real battle began—tracking down its users.

This episode uncovers the shocking scale of the network, the high-profile arrests that followed, and the devastating impact on both victims and investigators. We examine how international cooperation brought key players to justice, the legal and ethical challenges of prosecuting dark web crimes, and the unsettling reality that remnants of these networks continue to resurface. Join us as we unravel the aftermath of one of the darkest criminal enterprises ever exposed—and the ongoing fight to hold every accomplice accountable. Thanks for listening!

'Welcome to Video' (Part 1): The Dark Web’s Most Vile Empire 1:00:15

πριν 18 μέρες1:00:15

1:00:15

CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains content around child sexual abuse material and child exploitation. Listener discretion is advised. This case makes Dark Web Diaries look tame. This week, we dive into the horrifying Welcome to Video case—one of the darkest and most expansive child exploitation networks ever uncovered. Operating in the shadows of the internet, Welcome to Video was a marketplace of unimaginable crimes, where thousands of users exchanged Bitcoin for access to child abuse material. At the center of it all was Son Jong-Woo, an unassuming South Korean student who built and maintained the site, allowing it to thrive undetected for years. But in 2017, a single encrypted file linked to the site caught the attention of U.S. Homeland Security Investigations (HSI)—and what they found was more horrifying than anyone could have imagined. This discovery triggered an international investigation spanning the United States, South Korea, and the United Kingdom, with law enforcement racing to uncover the full scale of the operation. By March 2018, authorities managed to shut the site down, but their work was far from over. Investigators were left combing through hundreds of thousands of videos, unmasking both the victims and the perpetrators behind the screen. What they uncovered exposed not just the website itself, but a massive underground network of offenders—many of whom were hiding in plain sight. In Part 1, we reveal how a cryptic digital trail led authorities to one of the most sickening and far-reaching child exploitation cases in internet history. But the real nightmare? The people behind it weren’t just lurking in the dark—they were everywhere. Thanks for listening!

A horrific crime, a high-stakes manhunt, and the inside story from the officer who lived it. In this episode, we sit down with Dallas PD Officer Joe King, a key player in the investigation and capture of Robert Sparks, the man responsible for one of Dallas’ most shocking family murders. Joe takes us behind the scenes of the case, sharing firsthand what it was like to track down Sparks and the reality of working major crimes in law enforcement. But this episode isn’t just about true crime—it’s also about bridging the divide between law enforcement and the public. When Joe isn’t catching killers, he’s behind the mic on ATO: Bridging the Divide, a podcast that dives into the untold stories of first responders, mental health, and the human side of policing. We talk about the wildest moments from his career, the importance of storytelling in law enforcement, and why sometimes cops need therapy, too. A deep dive into true crime, justice, and the men and women behind the badge—this episode has it all. About Joe King: Dallas PD’s Joe King has spent almost three decades with the Dallas Police Department. Most of his experience with the DPD has been working street level narcotics sales and hunting fugitives (we told you he was cool). Joe has created a habitual tracking database for burglars, drug dealers and robbers for the Dep, taught surveillance school, implemented reality-based training and has developed a case management filing system he teaches to detectives. Joe is a Dickeys BBQ and Assist the Officer Foundation and board member where he is the Oz behind the curtains with his ATO: Bridging the Divide podcast. Here, he brings awareness to mental health issues among LEOs and their families. Joe is married to Kristen, a Dallas Child Abuse detective and father to, the love of his life, Carmen.

Familicide: The Crimes of Robert Sparks 57:21

Content Warning: This episode contains descriptions of sexual assault, violence, and human suffering. Listener discretion is advised. Alright, let’s rewind to September of 2007 where a man by the name of Robert Sparks was living a relatively normal life—at least, that’s how it looked from the outside. But inside his home, it was a different story. Robert Sparks had a reputation for being controlling and paranoid, especially about his wife, Chare Agnew. By September 2007, Sparks’ paranoia hit its breaking point, and a Dallas neighborhood would become the backdrop for an unthinkable crime. When police arrived at the scene, they weren’t prepared for the horrors they would find inside: three dead family members. 9-year-old Harold, 10-year-old Raekwon, and 30-year-old Chare. Sparks’ crimes were so barbaric, so personal, that even seasoned homicide investigators were unnerved. Even more bewildering were Sparks’ two stepdaughters 14-year-old LaKenya and 12-year-old Garysha huddled in a locked closet, traumatized with remnants of the previous night's horrors still on their faces. What happened in the Rochester home that night sent shockwaves throughout all of Dallas. People were horrified of the details of the crimes and all of Dallas PD was now turning to finding the fugitive who was on the run. A full out manhunt was underway. But what would unfold over the next weeks would add to the complex and totally bizarre components of this case: a mad car chase through Dallas neighborhoods, accusations of poisonings, and demands for secret audiocassette recordings to be used in proving Sparks' innocence. In this episode, we unravel the chilling details of the case, the trial that sparks heated debates about the crossroads of mental health and the judicial system. How do we judge the mind of a killer? Tune in on Friday, 2/14/25, for our sit down with Dallas PD's Joe King for a behind-the-scenes look at the case that shook Dallas in 2007. Thanks for listening!

God's Misfits: The Murders of Veronica Butler and Jilian Kelley 1:12:00

A routine custody exchange. A deserted highway. Two women vanish without a trace. On March 30, 2024, Jilian Kelley and Veronica Butler set off on what should have been a simple trip to pick up Veronica’s children. But when they never returned home, their loved ones knew something was terribly wrong. Their vehicle was later found abandoned near the Oklahoma-Kansas border, but there was no sign of the women. The unsettling clues left behind hinted at something far more sinister. As law enforcement launched an investigation, they began to uncover a dark and twisted conspiracy—one fueled by paranoia, power, and an insatiable need for control. The case would lead authorities to a secretive anti-government group calling themselves God’s Misfits , whose disturbing beliefs and extreme actions would shock an entire community. What happened to Jilian and Veronica that day? Who was behind their disappearance? And how did a bitter custody dispute escalate into something so horrifying? In this episode, we break down the chilling details of the case, the web of deception woven by those responsible, and the terrifying truths uncovered along the way. Join us as we unravel the mystery behind God’s Misfits —a case of control, delusion, and murder. As we discuss this heart-wrenching story, it's important to acknowledge the enduring impact on the victims' families. Clinton Butler, the father of Veronica Butler, has faced immense emotional and financial challenges following the loss of his daughter. To support him during this difficult time, a GoFundMe campaign has been established to help him retain his family home.

Josef Mengele: Auschwitz's Angel of Death 1:02:35

πριν 6 weeks1:02:35

Content Warning: This episode contains descriptions of violence, genocide, and human suffering. Listener discretion is advised. In this compelling and deeply introspective episode, we delve into one of humanity’s darkest chapters: the Holocaust. Beginning with a look at the state of Germany in the 1930s, we explore the political and economic collapse that created the fertile ground for Adolf Hitler’s rise to power and the horrifying events that followed. We discuss the establishment of Auschwitz, the largest and most infamous Nazi concentration and extermination camp, and examine the systemic and meticulous organization of genocide carried out within its walls. At the heart of this episode lies the chilling story of Josef Mengele, the so-called "Angel of Death." We unravel his background, exploring how his ambition, obsession with success, and fervent belief in Nazi ideology propelled him to become one of history’s most notorious figures. Mengele’s brutal experiments on prisoners, especially twins, are recounted with careful attention to detail, shedding light on the depth of his inhumanity. As we navigate through the horrors of Auschwitz, we also examine the psychological toll on survivors and the intergenerational trauma experienced by their descendants. We reflect on the importance of remembrance and education to ensure these atrocities are never forgotten or repeated. Finally, we follow Mengele’s escape after the collapse of the Third Reich, highlighting how post-war chaos and bureaucratic failures allowed him to evade justice for decades. This episode is a sobering exploration of the Holocaust, a tribute to its victims, and a call to reflect on the societal factors that allowed such atrocities to occur.
