In this episode of True Crime Time For, Cyndi Overton opens with a Mother’s Day reflection and updates on the upcoming Real Life Real Crime live event before moving into a heavy lineup of true crime stories involving children, family violence, celebrity crime, animal cruelty, and fraud.

“This Day in History” covers the infamous Lindbergh kidnapping, when the body of 20-month-old Charles Augustus Lindbergh Jr. was discovered after a massive ransom case that became known as the “crime of the century.”

Additional stories include:

  • A Utah husband and wife accused of torturing and killing their 11-year-old son, then attempting to make his death appear to be a hanging
  • A Wisconsin stepmother accused of starving and imprisoning her 14-year-old autistic stepdaughter until she weighed only 35 pounds
  • Actor Nick Pasquale, known from How I Met Your Mother, found guilty of attempted murder after stabbing his estranged girlfriend 20 times
  • Capital murder suspect Lee Gilley fleeing to Italy before trial, leading a judge to order forfeiture of his $1 million bond
  • Rapper Kodak Black arrested in Florida on a felony drug trafficking charge
  • A Texas mother accused of abandoning her two young children for six weeks while sending food remotely through Uber Eats
  • A Cobb County man accused of molesting at least nine children across multiple jurisdictions
  • The man whose animal abuse case led to Dexter’s Law being sent back to jail after killing a dog he adopted from a shelter
  • A 28-year-old woman accused of pretending to be 16 years old to enroll in a Bronx high school

Cyndi closes the episode by addressing listener feedback about solo episodes, explaining the reality of producing daily content, and thanking Lifers for continuing to show up, listen, and support the show.
