Summary

In part 1, we introduced you to Bob and Jane Bashara, a Grosse Point power couple with a picture perfect marriage on the outside—not so picture perfect on the inside. Not only had Bob run his real estate business into the ground, forcing Jane to forego retirement and carry the family’s financial weight by herself—Bob was also deeply into the BDSM scene, something Jane had no interest in, and he was cheating on her left and right. Especially with his favorite mistress, Rachel, who thought he was already divorced and had begun planning a life with him. When we left you, Bob and Rachel had struck up a relationship with Janet, a woman in Oregon who they hoped would be willing to move to Grosse Point and be their “third” in a relationship where “Master Bob” would rule and the two women would be sexually and financially submissive to him. Bob flew out to Oregon to meet Janet, who was turned off by him from pretty much minute one. Janet was about to get an up-close look at what “Master Bob” was capable of. And so was Bob’s wife Jane. Join us now for part 2 of this bizarre true story.

Note to our campers: This episode includes discussion of BDSM, abusive relationship dynamics, and non-consensual sexual violence. Please use discretion when choosing whether to listen, and please skip this one if you're under 18.

0:00.0	Hello, campers. Grab your marshmallows and gather around the true crime campfire.
0:05.0	We're your camp counselors. I'm Katie and I'm Whitney.
0:08.0	And we're here to tell you a true story that is way stranger than fiction.
0:12.0	We're roasting murderers and marshmallows around the
0:13.8	true crime campfire.
0:16.7	In part one we introduced you to Bob and Jane Bishara, a gross point power couple with a picture perfect marriage on the outside.
0:30.0	Not so picture perfect on the inside. Not only had Bob run his real estate business into the ground, forcing Jane to forego retirement and carry the family's financial weight by herself, Bob was also deeply into the BDSM scene, something Jane had no interest in, and he was cheating on her left right and center, especially with his favorite mistress, Rachel, who thought he was

1:36.0	the murder of Jane Bishara. So from Janet's perspective, Bob wasn't turning out to be anything like who he'd presented himself to be before his visit.
1:59.0	He ordered her around in a distinctly un-sexy way.
2:02.0	He couldn't keep up with her for any of the outdoor activities
2:05.1	he'd promised to do with her. He was an asshole to the waiters whenever they went out to eat,
2:09.8	which in my opinion is a great metric by which to evaluate a person's character because if you're an
2:14.1	asshole to wait staff you're an asshole period yeah I've never had that rule steer me wrong
2:19.6	yet they'd agreed before the visit that the last night he was there would be the night they'd get into some sex stuff.
2:26.0	And I'm going to put in a content warning on this next part, Campers, because it involves sex that gets violent in a non-consensual way.
2:33.2	I'm going to go into as little specific detail about this as I can, but I feel like we need
