Summary
It's Christmas week, y'all! And we know nobody has the emotional bandwidth for a heavy true crime case while you're wrapping presents, hiding from relatives, or trying to keep your kids from shaking every gift under the tree.
So today, we're bringing you true crime… animal edition.
In this special holiday episode, Tyrella tells Nikita four real (yes, real!) cases where animals were the unexpected offenders or witnesses:
• The drunk raccoon who broke into a liquor store
• The REAL Cocaine Bear
• The parrot who repeated what may have been a murder confession — and why animal "testimony" can't be used in court
• The prison cats caught smuggling drugs and phones past guards
We will be back next week with our normal true crime stories! Merry Christmas, ya'll!

| 0:00.0 | Hey y'all, welcome to Killer Queens, a true crime podcast. I'm your host, Tarela, and like most |
| 0:09.5 | millennials, I've always had an obsession with true crime. On KQ, you'll find light true crime |
| 0:14.8 | stories, millennial hypes and gripes, some adult language, and maybe a special guest here and there. |
| 0:22.5 | Just like a 90s sleepover, |
| 0:27.5 | we're just a couple BFFs hanging out. So gather around and let's launch right into it. |
| 0:37.6 | Okay, you guys, it's Christmas, pretty much. It is. |
| 0:43.0 | Yeah, because by the time you hear this, Christmas will be in just a couple days. |
| 0:48.9 | And obviously, we wanted to give you an episode this week because, you know, we do take some time off. Like, once a quarter, we try to give ourselves a little time. |
| 0:52.3 | So that's this week. |
| 0:54.0 | And so Patreon, we don't have anything |
| 0:56.3 | that we're putting out other than our Advent series. So check that out. And we wanted to hit you |
| 1:03.3 | with something that was not too heavy. You know, it's Christmas. We didn't want something, |
| 1:08.5 | we didn't want something really heavy. And a lot of people just don't really have time. So we wanted to kind of do a quick hitter. And we wanted to lighten the mood. |
| 1:19.9 | Yeah. Really lighten the mood. So I saw an article on Facebook. I think everybody has seen this article now. It's about the drunk raccoon that raided the |
| 1:29.5 | liquor store and then passed out drunk in the bathroom. And I thought, this is hilarious. And this is |
| 1:34.2 | what we all need right now. Yes. Also, I feel like that's me in a past life. You know, |
| 1:41.8 | if reincarnation is real and I get to come back as a raccoon, I'm coming back as a menace of a raccoon for sure. |
| 1:50.9 | For sure. And just like, what are they going to do? Nothing. Exactly. So we've got some animal crimes today. We've got some cases that involve animals. |
| 2:03.6 | Okay. Most of them are very, very light. One has raises some very interesting true crime questions. |
