Hey, infamous listeners.

Today we're doing something a little different.

We're sharing an episode from a show we absolutely love, the Gratitudeology podcast with Jamie Hess.

It's a podcast that digs deep into resilience, recovery, and finding meaning through life's

most intense moments.

And this episode is pretty infamous.

Jamie dives into the story of Jesse Budafuko, a name you might recognize from one of the

most sensational true crime cases of the 90s.

The case where one man's wife was shot in the face by his underage mistress, Amy Fisher.

The case that maybe helped kick off the true crime craze that's still going on today.

But what you might not know is what happened to that couple's daughter, Jessie, a nine-year-old

whose normal life was upended when her family's tragedy became a media circus.

This is Jesse's story.

It's about reclaiming her voice and navigating trauma and media exploitation.

It's powerful, moving, and honestly, kind of unforgettable. Here's

gratitudeology, growing up Budafuko. Hope you enjoy. This episode mentions gun violence and suicide.

Please take care while listening.

Thank you. suicide. Please take care while listening. Born in 1983, Jesse's childhood was like one long movie montage, combined with a classic family sitcom.

My parents, Joey and Mary Jo, and the name alone is adorable, right?

And then there was so much love there.

They were high school sweethearts.
