About this episode

Jason was a straight A college student, with 2 jobs, and his favorite show was “The Sopranos.” He was a nice kid with a bright future ahead of him.

One day police found Jason’s mom had gone missing. Jason was worried.

He had thrown her headless body off a cliff - just like what he learned from his favorite show. But he had been so busy - that he hadn’t gotten around to burning her head and her hands. They were still sitting in the closet waiting for him.


Book Rec: “Such Good Boys” by Tina Dirmann (best deep dive on this case and an amazing read)
