The Hart family was literally picture perfect.  Vibrant colors and perfectly cultivated scenes captured in their family snapshots. They had drawn the attention of many with their incredible social media presence promoting love and acceptance. But as we know all too well, things are not always what they seem.  This is the tragic story of six children that never had a chance for their voices to be heard. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hart_family_murders https://youtu.be/TbaLgO8LhXM https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/18/movies/broken-harts-review.html https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/horrifying-true-story-hart-family-100000604.html?guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAHnK4qOvMOhf5HKOqk3M5bMGCuwhn7xTOZNcOw1ir0NTpB97IYV7OH6WtcH7UXYFwuahlT2MxN3HdFTHmL_9_kOLhyhy9nS8_VGp2GyyXVmdMEE4gy76rXcxh_mSRlppTHsy7ITLu5CEUxpvJDVSU8fW_ep_-GJWmyubEm_Ku9rd https://www.oregonlive.com/news/erry-2018/09/457f99a9ef7947/inside-the-hart-family-home-po.html Broken Harts, Investigation Discovery Music By: Jonas Bjornstand  Cover Art By: Charnell

This case is a prime example of why we love dogs more than people. Dirk Prinsloo had a reputation for being a sleazy lawyer; making people feel uncomfortable was an understatement of his actions. When he met Cezanne Vesser he did what any narcissistic predator would do, and immediately swooned her in an intense over the top conquest to win her over. But once he got the girl, Dirk had higher expectations for how is partner must look.  Three breast augmentations and one botched nose job later, Cezanne  made quite a shocking transformation to say the least… but Cezanne’s transformation doesn’t just stop at her looks…What this couple ends up doing together will make your stomach turn… brace yourselves.

In November of 2018 Tamla Horsford, a beautiful wife and mother to six, was attending a girls night sleepover at her friends house.  Sadly, her family had no idea that they would never see her again when she left that evening. The next morning would bring a tragedy filled with unanswered questions for many close to Tamla. No one knows what happened that night, other than the ones who were there. But to this day, most everyone can agree, the explanations just don’t quite make sense.

Sometime one love just isn’t enough… and Emma Ledoux was definitely living proof of that. In the early 1900s it wasn’t quite favorable to leave or step out of a marriage. But Emma lived beyond the box of traditional norms…which unfortunately meant that others paid a very brutal price. Join us to hear about what happens to Emma’s third husband..in the tragic trunk murder of 1906.

Charnell is taking it back to the old timey marriage days this week… but this isn’t your typical love story. Nellie May Madison was quite a woman. She rode horses like a pro and was one hell of a shot with a gun.  Nellie had ended several marriages before meeting Eric Madison, who would eventually become her next husband. As we know, marriage isn’t always happily ever after. Sometimes enough is enough, but does it justify murder?

We don’t find Michigan cases, they find us. This is a tragic story not too far from home. Danny Ranes was conditioned to use violence for what he wanted at a very young age. Naturally, this led to life of horrific crimes for him. It wouldn’t be long before he met Brent Koster, another troubled young man running from a broken home. What they did together is truly what nightmares are made of… but would Brent have done these things without Danny?

On January 2, 1935 around approximately 1:20pm, a well dressed younger looking man checked in to the Hotel President in Kansas City. The man seemed.. troubled.. as if he was avoiding someone, or some thing. As several days progressed, it was noted by hotel staff that the man was exhibiting some very unusual behaviors… but they had no idea of the horror that would soon unfold. The question still remains to this day…what happened in room 1046??? Seriously, what happened?????
