Summary

We hope that everyone (in the Northern Hemisphere!) is enjoying their summer vacation. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss Vacation Nightmares. Things often go wrong following a combination of sun, alcohol and foreign countries.

American sisters Anne and Robin Korkki were on the trip of a lifetime. They were staying at an exclusive resort in Seychelles, when the hotel butler became concerned that he hadn’t seem them for a period of time. He entered their room and found both sisters in bed, deceased.

Kristy Manzanares and her husband Kenneth boarded a cruise ship to Alaska with their three daughters in 2017. They were travelling with extended family. Just two days into their vacation, it all went wrong. Other guests recalled hearing a woman ‘screaming for her life’. Kristy was found dead in her cabin and Kenneth was arrested for her murder.

Carla Valpeoz is an American woman who has been missing in Peru since 2018. Carla was brave – she was legally blind and wanted to see the world before her eyesight totally failed. There is eerie final footage of Carla, walking with her cane. She has never been seen again.

David Sneddon was an American man, visiting China in 2004. He vanished without a trace and many people suspected that he had an accident while hiking. More information has come to light recently that suggests David may have been kidnapped by North Korean officials and that he has been forced to work for the Kim regime there.

0:23.6	What's up guys? Welcome to another episode of True Crime Society podcast with Stephanie and Olivia.
0:28.2	It is still June 16th. We're double recording. I know we've been saying that. I think this is our last
0:35.2	double recording. Then we'll be back to normal. I know it's normal for you guys, but not normal for
0:40.8	us. And not to be the bare bad news, but next week we won't have an episode. Then wake off to
0:49.4	recharge, do some kind of behind the scenes work on the podcast and get ready for the next half of
0:55.5	the year. Yeah, and then we'll be back in action full time back to regular scheduling after that.
1:04.1	Yes, so we also we didn't give the weather update on our last June 16th episode. I don't think we
1:09.9	know we didn't do an Elmo one. Well, yeah, I can do it now. So Elmo is still around. He's still
1:16.0	making his way up the road. I've actually been quite busy this week. So by the time I get home in

1:26.5	He's still eating all the worms and grubs or whatever he's still around. He just hasn't been around
1:31.7	at our place as much, which is a bit sad. But anyway, still makes my day every time I say.

1:43.2	someone sent us a message on Instagram and they would listen it into the podcast and it was
1:46.4	something like, can't wait for this week's Elmo update or the Elmo Chronicles or something like that.
1:51.6	Oh my gosh. We need Elmo to do something more exciting.
1:57.0	Besides just exists. Actually, this is kind of funny. I did say, I think it was a
2:04.7	Uber eats ad. Maybe this is a random kind of segue, but a new breeds had it. I don't know
2:09.1	Paris Hilton does a lot of the ads here. Anyway, so she's in an ad for Uber eats. I'm pretty short
