Summary

On a flat and lonely stretch of highway in San Joaquin County, California, in February of 2012, onlookers were horrified as a backhoe violently tore into an abandoned well, nicknamed "Loren's Boneyard." The giant claws of the backhoe rose out of the ground holding a massive amount of dirt and the skeletal remains of the victims buried within—the victims presumably of Loren Herzog and Wesley Shermantine, AKA The Speed Freak Killers. While only convicted of murdering four people, they are suspected of murdering upward of 72 people.Join Cam & Jen as we discuss 'Made The Devil Do It: The Speed Freak Killers'.Listener Discretion by Edward October of OctoberpodVHShttps://www.youtube.com/c/octoberpodhomevideoProducer and Music by Nico Vettese wetalkofdreams.comWritten & Researched by Rett MacPhersonhttps://www.amazon.com/Rett-MacPherson/e/B000APPJ6A?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1654048621&sr=8-1SOURCES:https://charleyproject.org/case/chevelle-yvonne-wheelerhttps://charleyproject.org/case/cynthia-ann-vanderheidenhttps://charleyproject.org/case/joann-hobsonhttps://charleyproject.org/case/tracy-diane-meltonhttps://mail.murderpedia.org/male.S/s/shermantine-wesley.htmhttps://mail.murderpedia.org/male.H/h/herzog-loren-joseph.htmhttps://www.kcra.com/article/hobson-family-sues-s-j-sheriff-over-linden-dig/6402318https://www.sky.com/watch/channel/sky-crime/dateline/episodes/season-1/episode-3https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_Freak_Killershttps://allthatsinteresting.com/speed-killershttps://www.courthousenews.com/county-must-face-claims-handling-mass-murder-grave/https://www.mercurynews.com/2012/03/06/speed-freak-killers-cause-of-death-deep-anger-revealed/https://www.thoughtco.com/wesley-shermantine-and-loren-herzog-973133https://www.recordnet.com/story/news/2012/02/18/8216-blood-money-upsets/49731909007/https://sacramento.cbslocal.com/photo-galleries/2012/02/13/speed-freak-killers-victims-and-possible-victims/ Learn more about your ad choices.

0:19.4	You hear that? That's the sound of your energy use going in reverse.
0:24.7	We're winding, reducing. We're Ovo, an energy company that wants you to use less energy.
0:35.0	Some may see that as a bit backwards, but we like to see things differently.
0:41.1	Join us and see energy from a different angle. Ovo. How do you do?
0:46.6	Jen and Cam feel it would be unkind to present this program without a friendly word of warning.
0:52.4	We are about to unfold our True Crime Podcast, a podcast of lifelong friends who seek to examine
1:00.3	crimes which were committed without reckoning upon God. The discussion will be frank and the subject
1:07.1	matter will be of a grim and violent nature. I think it will thrill you. It might even horrify
1:13.9	you. So, if they are young children listening or if you feel unwilling to subject your nerves to
1:19.8	such a strain, how is your chance to? Well, we've warned you.
1:28.6	Hi, Jen. Hey, Cam. How are you? I am great. How are you? I'm fantastic. By the time everybody's listening

2:18.4	settling. Put your seat belts on. We're going to get cold at your parts. My bird chaser Chad has
2:24.9	followed me into the studio today. So, let's hope that he behaves himself. So, if you hear anything,
