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.

0:50.4

The unspeakable. Warning, unspeakable is intended for mature audiences.

0:54.0

If you are easily offended, then I'm not your girl.

0:56.6

Listening discretion is advised. Hey y'all, it's KJ here, and I'm back with another episode of Unspeakable.

1:02.4

What's going on with you? How was your Easter? Mine was fantastic. I had so much fun, and it was beautiful,

1:08.3

and I got to wear a new dress with pockets. And we all know that's a big deal.

1:13.2

I hope that you had a great one. I got to get some shoutouts here to some people. And I'm going to start in, I hope I say this right, Watumpka, Alabama. Did I say that right? I sure hope so. That's where Miss Holly Drew is. And I want to say, hey, how are you doing Holly over there in Alabama as well as right here?

1:11.4

Now, I know this young lady.

1:53.8

So I have to say hello to Coleman.

1:55.3

How are you if you're listening?

1:56.5

And I just love y'all so much for supporting me and continue to support me.

1:59.5

I taught Coleman years ago.

Coleman was also my student of the year, so I didn't forget. And then I've got two people that did not give me locations, and that's okay. I'm still going to give you a shout out, and that's going to be Lacey Shelton and Bailey Garcia. How are y'all doing, guys? I hope you're doing fantastic. I'm thrilled to have you as a crime family member and supporting me. And so thank you so very much, wherever you are in the world. But let's get started into today's episode.
