Hey, true crime besties, welcome back to an all new episode of serialously with me, Annie Elise. And today we are

talking about headline highlights. We have got so much to discuss. And as a reminder,

because this is only the second episode this year of headline highlights,

I like to be a podcaster of the people, and so many of you for the last year or so have been asking

that I cross post this episode onto YouTube for all my YouTube viewers.

So headline highlights officially will be out on YouTube every single week.

You can, of course, listen to it on the podcast first every Thursday, because YouTube

are trending like over and over and over again that I see so many of you guys want me to cover.

So this week's episode, it's going to be just like a tiny, tiny bit different than our usual

Thursday episodes. We're still going to go through all the headlines and everything going on in

the true crime world. Don't get me wrong. But we also are going to talk about two cases that

have a crime element to them, but they're not necessarily like your clear cut murder cases that
