Hey guys, this week we're bringing back one of our older episodes, and this is a story of Michael Master

Marino, also known as the Body Snatcher. And we're bringing this episode back for really two reasons.

Number one, it was 2020 when this episode first came out. And if we're honest with ourselves,

most of us have chosen to block that entire year from memory. So you may have missed it the first time,

or you may have just forgotten the details. And number two, our bonus episodes this month are

covering the Netflix docu-series the Kings of Tupelo. And believe it or not, that story actually

connects to this case way more than a docu series about Elvis impersonators would ever leave you to believe.

The first bonus episode is out right now, and you can listen by subscribing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or at

patreon.com slash moms and mysteries podcasts. And the other two episodes will be released the next to

Wednesday, September 10th and 17th. But before, let's revisit the wild and unforgettable story of Michael Master Marino,

So yeah, I'm very, I'm very thankful and happy for this particular week. So yeah, that's where we're at. The rest of the weeks, no good. Throw them out. Yeah, exactly. This week was fine. Yeah. All right, so we will get right into it. The story this week is a little unusual because it is not a typical murder case.

And in fact, there technically is no murder at all, but it is a true crime story that still has

victims nonetheless. Everybody has different wishes for themselves and for their

loved ones when they pass away, which is why having a living will and a last will are so important

when it comes for making sure that your wishes are honored. A last will in testament is designed to put a

plan in place for what will happen to your belongings, assets, and estate after you pass away,

and a living will is designed to outline exactly what your wishes are for yourself in the event

that you cannot make medical decisions. Part of a living will usually includes appointing a

health care proxy, which is just somebody that you trust to see to it that your wishes are honored.

And you can also put in

writing what you want to happen with your body in the event of your death, including the type of
