  • Hey listeners! We are so happy you are back to join us for another episode. This week we covered the stabbing of Payton Leutner also known sometimes as the Slenderman stabbing or sacrifice.

So follow along and let us know what you think of this case and how it was handled by parents, doctors, and authorities.

  • Perched on an island near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California, is a prison that claimed to be impervious to escapes: Alcatraz Federal Prison. Al Capone, George "Machine Gun" Kelly, Robert "Birdman" Stroud, James “Whitey” Bulger, and Alvin “Creepy Karpis” Karpowicz all passed through its walls. Even though it was believed to be a sealed-off, safe prison to contain the nation's most dangerous inmates, many tried to leave before their time was up. Some prisoners took their fate into their own hands, planning to escape or die trying.

  • Hello once again dear listeners! Thank you for your patience with this episode! We are discussing the book American Predator. The Israel Keyes case is not always a super well known case but it should be.

  • Hey listeners! Thank you for diving back into the abyss with us! This week we are bringing you the story of a gruesome cult. This one has all the brainwashing, torture and illusions of grandeur you can take. Listener discretion is advised with this one because it gets pretty graphic.

  • Hello listeners! Welcome to a new year of true crime cases! We are so happy to have you joining us!

    This week we are talking about the wrongful conviction of Jerry Hobbs. If you listened to our Juan Rivera episode, you might hear some familiar names. Jerry Hobbs was accused of killing his daughter and her friend in 2005. A grueling interrogation involving physical violence and manipulation ended with a false confession. It would not be until DNA testing found the real killer that justice would actually be served.

    Make sure to check out The Innocence Project and the Center on Wrongful Convictions for more information on what is being done to help victims.

    Check out theabysspod.com for show notes, pictures from the case and sources.
