Along the way, we find out that you shouldn't have to be willed a campground spot, that text messages don't magically cease to exist, just because you deleted them, and you shouldn't wear very specific shoes while you carry out a killing!

#451 - Turd Boy: Satanic Killer - Clemmons, North Carolina
This week, in Clemmons, North Carolina, a troubled young man changes his name, covers his face in tattoos, and idolizes Charles Manson, as he builds a weird following, in his filthy house. Monthly sacrifices, and blood drinking make it even weirder, but the real crazy comes, when people begin going to police with stories of murder. This ends up with multiple bodies, unlikely accomplices, and a huge mess!! Along the way, we find out that Betty White loved Legos, that trying to freak out everyone in town usually works, and that when having several corpses at your home, maybe you shouldn't try to draw attention to yourself, and your house!!

This week, in Deer Park, Washington, a complicated marriage leads to multiple divorces, and everyone seemingly going their own way. But when one party starts snooping on the other's online dating life, it's only a matter of time before violence happens. Brutal violence, complete with staging the body, in as embarrassing position possible. Is the family right, when they say an innocent person is in prison?? Along the way, we find out that lavender is apparently not just for candles, that you should NEVER snoop on the online dating life of an ex, and that shaking your head, in a weird way, is not the way to make homicide detectives think you're innocent!
