Hi guys.

Welcome to a new episode of Legally Brunette.

I will be your host today, Emily Simpson with my co-pilot.

Shane.

So today we thought, here was the thing.

I always try to look for what's going on in the media.

Like what is the buzz?

What are people talking about? Because that's always the first thing that I want to go look for what's going on in the media. Like, what is the buzz? What are people

talking about? Because that's always the first thing that I want to go to for Legally Brunette,

is like, what is the most current topic? And I feel like there were just some big kind of breaking

news type of topics, but probably not enough to do a full episode. So today we're just going to

talk about like three really current things that are going on in the news in the true crime world. Okay. All right. So first we're going to talk about Laken Snelling. Have you heard of this girl? Do you know who this is? Yeah. I've seen it in the headlines. Yeah, in the headlines. Okay. Remind me. Well, you have to put cheerleader on there because that's always a headline. Oh, no, it's a murder, suicide in Vegas. No. Oh, no. I don't know. Then just told me. Okay. Lake and Snelling is the college girl who cheered at UK who killed her new board. Well, it was just recently, um, wasn't that recently found out that asphyxiation? Yes. So we're going to go into that. So let's talk about that. Also, again, we talked about this before when we did an episode on the girl that was killed by her stepbrother. Yeah, remember on the cruise ship? Yeah. I remember she was a cheerleader. and I talked about how whenever a girl is a cheerleader, they always put that into the headline. Like that's always a thing. Cheerleader. Because that's some, well, if it was football, they would put football. If it was football, they would put football. If it's cheerleader, they put cheerleader. If it's Minecraft warrior. They do not put that there. No, but cheerleader is

But they do a YouTuber. You know, if there's something that kind of gives a little bit of a

description of kind of their, you know, their personality. It's cheerleader, cheerleader, cheerleader.

I guess because immediately you have this vision of like this peppy, bubbly, bubbly,

you know, attractive girl that's a cheerleader and popular.

And now we're going to talk about this horrific crime that she did.

So anyway, 22 year old Laken Snelling is a former beauty pageant contestant and University

of Kentucky student.

She is now facing new legal developments
