Welcome to Unspeakable, a true crime podcast where I tell stories of real crimes with real victims,

0:11.7

whose cases are so shocking that many are left wondering, how is this even real?

0:30.9

I use my experiences in law enforcement, corrections, and combined with my years as a criminal justice educator, dig deep into complex cases of evil acts.

0:34.4

Some so evil, many feel they are unspeakable.

0:53.6

Warning, unspeakable is intended for mature audiences.

0:57.0

If you are easily offended, then I'm not your girl. Listing discretion is advised.

Hey y'all, it's KJ here back for another episode of Unspeakable, and I am so excited for the one that I've got for you today.

1:06.0

Now, if you're on my Patreon, you would know already actually who I'm going to be speaking with today.

1:12.3

But if not, you are in for a treat.

1:14.9

So do you remember the episode that I just recently dropped about a certain Baron Lee and his son Dragon and all that he went through during this custody issue with his son? Well, I have none other than Mr. Barron

1:30.7

Lee on the show with me. So how are you doing, Baron? Doing great, Kelly. Thanks. I am so excited,

1:38.2

1:44.7

He's going to tell me the story and he's going to talk to me live. So I know that everybody's going to be just so

1:49.6

tickled to know. Number one, I got so much feedback saying, oh, my God, thank God he was okay.

1:56.3

You know, what a loss that would have been for everybody involved, including your precious dragon,

2:01.9

that his daddy might have been just wiped off the planet for no good reason.

2:07.2

So I'm so glad that you're okay.

2:09.1

Second of all, thank you for answering my messages and being willing to speak to me because

2:12.4

I'm your biggest fan.

So let's start out with this. So I want to tell you how it went. It was kind of neat. So I was teaching that day at school, and he had messaged me online and said, hey, I'd love to chat with you. And I happen to have an off hour, not an off hour. If anyone's listening, it's a planning period. And I happen to need to use that hour to speak to Barron. And so I went outside and parked my butt on a curb and we just had the best chat. We talked for over an hour. And there was so much that I don't think I, on purpose, I know for a fact, I didn't get it wrong on purpose.
