This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Topeka, IN, to discuss the case of 17-month-old Alissa Guernsey, a little girl who was placed in the custody of her mother's cousin, Christy Shaffer, while her mother, Kelli Sprunger, tried to get on her feet. After Alissa's father, Michael Guernsey, died in a car crash on I-69 S in DeKalb County, Kelli relapsed into her addictive behaviors. What was supposed to be a short term placement with family members quickly turned into a nightmare for Alissa, who quickly became used as Christy's personal punching bag. After the little girl eventually succumbed to her abusive treatment at the hands of her caregiver, insult was added to injury when Christy wasn't even charged with murder.  Support Our Patreon For More Unreleased Content: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.facebook.com/BabyAlissaCriesForJustice.org https://sufferthelittlechildrenblog.com/2020/04/11/forget-me-not-alissa-guernsey/ https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/84809625/alissa-beth-guernsey https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/145803585/michael-guernsey https://wsbt.com/news/local/77-day-term-for-neglect-death-may-become-10-years https://www.abc57.com/news/activists-seek-justice-for-alissa-through-the-white-house https://www.change.org/p/potus-donald-trump-open-a-state-murder-investigation-for-the-fatal-beating-of-alissa-guernsey https://legalnews.com/detroit/1372359 https://www.kpcnews.com/opinions/article_cfb46675-165b-5977-8083-2e60c19c9be8.html https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/in-court-of-appeals/1713154.html https://www.kpcnews.com/article_710d0f10-3f4a-5811-b4b2-c3a54a8f4ce3.html https://casetext.com/case/sprunger-v-shaffer-in-re-shaffer https://www.insideedition.com/6627-after-a-babys-death-just-77-days-in-jail https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/health-wellness/2022/01/31/child-abuse-what-cinderella-phenomenon/9174296002/ https://www.southbendtribune.com/story/news/2013/01/29/some-doctors-slow-to-diagnose-abuse/46685703/ https://www.kpcnews.com/news/latest/article_acc16503-13b6-550b-ab66-87cae8ace7df.html https://www.facebook.com/sayNOtoJeffWible4IndianaSfateSenate/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8wcIFLTFb0&t=2655s&ab_channel=SuffertheLittleChildrenPodcasthttps://www.findlaw.com/state/indiana-law/indiana-child-abuse-laws.html

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Oklahoma City to discuss the case of Riley Lynn Nolan, a 3-year-old little princess found decomposing in the trash bin outside her grandmother's house. Riley's grandmother, Becky Ann Vreeland, had custody of the toddler and her two siblings while their parents, Kyle Nolan and Jenice Smith, did time in jail. But after all eyes are on Becky as the probable suspect, the grandmother spins a tale that gets even more bizarre each time she tells it.  Support Our Patreon For More Unreleased Content: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/OKOKC/bulletins/31d3857 https://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/sites/police/assets/File/Procedures/12105.pdf https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/oklahoma-city-ok/riley-nolan-10866524 https://www.koco.com/article/oklahoma-father-of-3-year-old-girl-killed-speaks-out/40399716 https://www.oscn.net/dockets/GetCaseInformation.aspx?db=cleveland&number=CF-2022-755&cmid=2409888 https://kfor.com/news/local/court-documents-child-found-dead-days-before-report/ https://kfor.com/news/its-in-my-best-interest-grandmother-charged-in-brutal-child-murder-asks-for-attorney/ https://kfor.com/news/local/residents-react-to-brutal-child-murder-in-southwest-oklahoma-city-new-details/ https://kfor.com/news/alleged-letter-from-murder-suspect-sent-to-kfor/ https://www.koco.com/article/oklahoma-murder-granddaughter-becky-vreeland-interview/41175453 https://kfor.com/news/local/witnesses-testify-in-3-year-olds-death-her-grandmother-charged-with-murder/ https://meaww.com/who-is-becky-ann-vreeland-oklahoma-grandmother-accused-of-killing-3-year-old-granddaughter-appears-in-court https://lawandcrime.com/crime/grandma-beat-3-year-old-granddaughter-to-death-left-dents-in-bathroom-wall-the-size-of-a-childs-head-police/ https://www.facebook.com/DaddyLion10 https://www.facebook.com/jenicesmith15

After she travels cross-country to be with him with her twin daughters, Lily and Tori Ball, Monica starts experiencing delusions.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Missoula County, Montana, to discuss the case of Leannah Gardipe, a 34-year-old single of mother of two, who stabbed her two beautiful children, Namaus and Evelyn Sandberg, to death. A search of Leannah's home uncovered a bloody serrated steak knife underneath a bed, as well as a pool of blood on the floor in the little girl’s bedroom. A cryptic note was also located in the threshold of the bedroom where the children were found. It read, “IT WAS THE ONLY WAY THAT WE ALL WOULDN’T BURN, NOW I’M THE ONLY ONE OF US THAT WILL.”   Support Our Patreon For More Unreleased Content: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.facebook.com/leannah.gardipe https://www.gofundme.com/f/2kasvmye7c?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link_all&utm_source=customer https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/missoulian/name/namaus-sandberg-obituary?id=31737408 https://medium.com/crime-seen/steak-knife-murders-mom-kills-children-aeaaad242b71 https://cbsaustin.com/news/nation-world/mother-charged-with-murdering-her-two-children-with-a-steak-knife https://lawandcrime.com/crime/woman-who-claimed-she-saved-her-babies-by-stabbing-them-to-death-pleads-guilty/ https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/name/namaus-sandberg-obituary?id=31645027 https://www.tributearchive.com/obituaries/23190790/namaus-kevin-sandberg/wall https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21116067-leannah-j-gardipe-affidavit-of-probable-cause https://lawandcrime.com/crime/woman-said-she-saved-her-babies-by-stabbing-them-to-death-with-a-steak-knife-prosecutor/ https://www.fox19.com/2021/11/23/mother-charged-with-murdering-her-two-young-children/ https://www.krtv.com/news/crime-and-courts/missoula-woman-charged-with-killing-her-children-changes-plea#:~:text=Leannah%20Jean%20Gardipe%2C%20a%20Missoula,November%202021%20at%20her%20residence. https://www.montanarightnow.com/missoula/mom-arrested-and-charged-with-murdering-her-two-children/article_1b5195d6-4bc0-11ec-bff7-3f4c6d3f5612.html https://nbcmontana.com/news/local/missoula-mother-charged-in-deaths-of-2-young-children https://www.montanarightnow.com/missoula/mom-arrested-and-charged-with-murdering-her-two-children/article_1b5195d6-4bc0-11ec-bff7-3f4c6d3f5612.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QciVWLQBLFI&ab_channel=NBCMontana

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, to discuss the case of Arabella Parker, a beautiful, red-haired little girl who lost her life at the hands of her mother's new man, Jahrid Joseph Burgess.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Bonifay, Florida, to discuss the case of 14-year-old Jasmine Renne Singletary Bortle, a teenage girl living with an unspecified neuromuscular disorder. After being admitted to Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola, Florida, on July 8th, 2021, Jasmine mysteriously died in her hospital bed a few days later. After an autopsy was completed, officers with the Pensacola Police Department responded to a call from the District One Medical Examiner’s Office regarding a homicide at the hospital. It seemed that young Jasmine had sustained injuries that were akin to a person dying in a severe car crash - injuries that were not present when she was admitted. But how did that happen while she was bedridden? Police zeroed in on only one suspect - her mother, Jessica Bortle.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://meaww.com/who-is-jessica-bortle-florida-woman-set-to-face-trial-for-allegedly-killing-her-daughter-with-special-needs https://lawandcrime.com/crime/s-hit-the-fan-mom-accused-of-obliterating-special-needs-daughters-liver-killing-child-for-cussing-and-throwing-and-breaking-crayons-while-in-hospital-bed/ https://www.kwtx.com/2021/08/17/mother-accused-killing-daughter-with-special-needs-while-hospital/ https://www.pnj.com/story/news/crime/2021/08/17/mom-arrested-death-special-needs-daughter-pensacola-hospital-jessica-bortle-jasmine-singletary/8156756002/ https://www.simsfuneralhome.net/obituary/jasmine-singletary-bortle https://disability-memorial.org/jasmine-singletary https://www.cbs42.com/regional/mother-kills-daughter-in-florida-hospital-room/ https://www.mypanhandle.com/news/local-news/holmes-county/pensacola-police-bonifay-woman-killed-daughter-in-hospital-room/ https://www.crimeonline.com/2021/08/23/florida-woman-allegedly-kills-special-needs-daughter-inside-hospital-room-rips-her-kidney-open-update/ https://www.crimeonline.com/2021/08/17/florida-woman-allegedly-kills-special-needs-daughter-inside-hospital-room-disturbing-autopsy-results-revealed/ https://midmichigannow.com/news/nation-world/mother-killed-special-needs-teen-daughter-inside-florida-hospital-room-police-say https://www.pnj.com/story/news/crime/2023/07/28/jessica-bortle-was-found-not-guilty-of-manslaughter-for-killing-daughter/70473210007/ https://weartv.com/news/local/pensacola-mother-found-guilty-of-battery-child-abuse-in-fatal-incident-involving-daughter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szx5UN1sMfc&ab_channel=WKRG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbvxu3xtZ30&ab_channel=WKRG https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100079004296504 https://www.facebook.com/rose.mathis.33046 https://www.facebook.com/joseph.singletary.188

This week, Drewby and Yergy head over to Grand Rapids, Michigan, to discuss the case of Mary Anne Welch, a beautiful baby girl born to a religious zealot by the name of Seth Welch, and his wife, Tatianna. When Seth found his daughter dead in her crib, he called his father, who is a lawyer, before calling 911. With regard to Mary Anne's death, Seth believed it to be God's will... the Lord giveth, the Lord taketh. Allegedly, Seth didn't bother to feed Mary Anne because she wasn't big or strong enough to help out on the farm. Due to his bizarre outlook on "survival of the fittest," he refused to bring her to see a doctor when she was on death's door.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Sellersville, Pennsylvania to discuss the case of Shane and Crystal Robinson, two parents living with their seven children in a rural trailer park. After a concerned neighbor called 911 after seeing two children breaking into an adjacent abandoned trailer, it's discovered that the Robinson family is hiding a dark secret within their double-wide... one filled with filth, vermin, and exotic wildlife.  Support Our Patreon For More Unreleased Content: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.dos.pa.gov/ProfessionalLicensing/BoardsCommissions/Pages/Act-31.aspx https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/23826410/robertson-affidavit.pdf https://lawandcrime.com/crime/mom-in-extreme-abuse-case-called-her-7-uneducated-kids-garbage-disposals-with-legs-and-surrounded-her-filthy-bed-with-animal-cages-affidavit/ https://www.google.com/local/place/fid/0x89c41f66c4b06263:0x492776d4be4c9fe1/photosphere?iu=https://streetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com/v1/thumbnail?panoid%3Dif5c_ioZrEAWlYGktf1Mjg%26cb_client%3Dlu.gallery.gps%26w%3D160%26h%3D106%26yaw%3D4.4263463%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100&ik=CAISFmlmNWNfaW9ackVBV2xZR2t0ZjFNamc%3D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYhXeQhYxh0&ab_channel=ABC7Chicago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKncGBobLiU&ab_channel=6abcPhiladelphia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xikjjYCIbBc&ab_channel=CBSPhiladelphia https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064967283118 https://www.dos.pa.gov/ProfessionalLicensing/BoardsCommissions/Pages/Act-31.aspx

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Washington state to discuss the case of Hazel Homan, an adorable little girl who, like many of the children we cover on this channel, lost her life at the hands of her evil stepmother, Kamee Dixon. Hazel's injuries included: a broken leg, a broken knee, a broken hip, a broken arm, a broken finger, and fractures in her spine. Her cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head… trauma consistent with shaken baby syndrome. All the while, Hazel's father, Brandon Homan, didn't really believe that Kamee would hurt his little girl.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.dcyf.wa.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/reports/ecfr-hh20.pdf https://washingtoncasa.org/ https://www.crimeonline.com/2019/12/10/live-in-girlfriend-faces-murder-charge-after-abusing-tot-girl-for-at-least-6-months-while-dad-was-working-prosecutors/?fbclid=IwAR1xitPTw3i-20xBohfbudlyz6fl9o7J9L1j6oZE2Y_FebEYqi9bP2ZpC7E https://www.chronline.com/stories/washington-woman-guilty-of-abusing-toddler-to-death-wont-receive-a-new-trial,297034 https://cob.org/news/2019/Arrest-made-in-murder-of-three-year-old-child https://www.westfordfuneralhome.com/obituaries/Hazel-Homan/#!/Obituary https://people.com/crime/wash-girl-3-dies-from-shaken-baby-syndrome-and-dads-girlfriend-is-charged/ https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/new-documents-give-insight-into-months-before-bellingham-childs-death https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/bellingham-woman-accused-of-shaking-a-3-year-old-to-death-hears-testimony-from-childs-father-at-trial https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/father-gives-testimony-on-day-two-of-trial-for-woman-accused-of-shaking-3-year-old-to-death https://lawandcrime.com/crime/woman-receives-exceptional-sentence-for-killing-boyfriends-3-year-old-daughter-in-homicide-by-abuse/ https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/woman-on-trial-for-the-death-boyfriends-daughter-claimed-to-have-loving-relationship-with-child https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/bellingham-toddler-hazel-homan-death-kamee-dixon-sentenced-34-years-homicide-by-abuse https://www.lightthewaymissing.com/mrhazeljourney https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6Nwc55fcAU  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2SOcjr0JHY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alfPUHQY4gY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pU8OMeH9kPg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23LB3wAPZp8 https://www.facebook.com/medora.pederson.5 https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100011047000051 https://www.facebook.com/ashlee.bartell/posts/pfbid02oWw1ZP7oLX7TFpg9RbzoKge382Z6bf4JtZsjZPMUpKFKFSrkeBHe6UdcQ77GHKfbl https://www.facebook.com/kamee.dixon

This week, Drewby and Yergy head out to Las Vegas to tell the story of Aurelius Dees, a toddler who first responders found dead inside of his suburban home. Aurelius was rail thin, and based on the state of his tiny body, had been dead for some time. But what started as a story about Aurelius' death turned out to be so much more. He and his siblings had been abandoned in a trash filled home by their mother, Philena Dees. It was 90 degrees INSIDE of the home due to a broken AC unit, and the family hasn't had running water in months. Inside of this hell hole, Aurelius' 8-year-old was being held captive inside of her own bedroom because Philena's pervert ex-boyfriend, Juan de la Cruz, couldn't keep his filthy hands to himself.  Support Our Patreon For More Unreleased Content: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://lawandcrime.com/crime/mom-of-dead-toddler-locked-8-year-old-girl-in-room-for-over-a-year-for-her-safety-after-she-was-sexually-assaulted-by-boyfriend-who-was-allowed-to-stay-because-he-was-paying-the-bills-police/ https://money.yahoo.com/las-vegas-mother-charged-1-233400886.html?guccounter=1 https://www.8newsnow.com/investigators/las-vegas-mother-kept-girl-7-locked-in-room-for-year-for-her-safety-after-witnessing-sexual-assault-before-1-year-old-died-docs/ https://ground.news/article/las-vegas-mother-kept-girl-7-locked-in-room-for-year-for-her-safety-after-witnessing-sexual-assault-before-1-year-old-died-docs https://www.crimeonline.com/2023/07/01/8-year-old-girl-locked-in-her-room-for-her-safety-because-man-who-raped-her-was-paying-the-bills/ https://www.websleuths.com/forums/threads/nv-philena-dees-locked-8-year-old-daughter-in-filthy-room-after-accusing-mothers-boyfriend-juan-de-la-cruz-of-sexual-assault-june-25-2023.682474/ https://news3lv.com/news/local/mother-arrested-after-baby-found-dead-inside-residence-3-others-also-found-neglected

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to North Carolina to discuss the case of Zahra Baker, a 10-year-old girl from rural Australia who came to the US after her father married a woman by the name of Elisa Fairchild... a woman he'd met on the social networking platform, IMVU. Although Zahra had beaten the cancer that caused her to lose her leg, shortly after moving across the world, she would lose her life at the hands of her evil stepmother.  Support Our Patreon For More Unreleased Content: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.wsoctv.com/news/local/its-been-decade-since-hickory-10-year-old-zahra-bakers-death/LJS55LGGNRACPLBL5MOWGECGI4/ https://www.hickorync.gov/kiwanis-park#:~:text=The%20Zahra%20Baker%20All%20Children%27s%20Playground%20and%20Treehouse%20at%20Kiwanis,of%20all%20ages%20and%20abilities. https://murderpedia.org/female.B/b/baker-elisa.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Zahra_Baker https://www.crimelibrary.org/notorious_murders/classics/zahra-baker/backyard-fire.html https://abcnews.go.com/US/zahra-baker-case-warrants-grim-details-body-disposal/story?id=12284049 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wzZLUgGUOk&ab_channel=Dr.ToddGrande https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WlRKxvORJI&ab_channel=SuffertheLittleChildrenPodcast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VPEjnJQpBs&ab_channel=SuffertheLittleChildrenPodcast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzupn757djU&ab_channel=KimberlyFlower https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryWBZF9nkTk&ab_channel=ABCNews%28Australia%29 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeiJ_nYk7Pk&ab_channel=DanielleKirsty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5LVmsFNMaY&ab_channel=60MinutesAustralia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-hBmOyVMXo&ab_channel=60MinutesAustralia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wARASdGLjI&t=192s&ab_channel=driftm8s

This week, Drewby and Yergy head down to Florida to discuss the case of Aiden Hutchins and his half-sister, Hannah Griner. Aiden was supposed to live with his father, Nick Hutchins, here in Maine... But when his ex-wife, Brandy Hutchins, refused to turn the little boy over, Nick headed to Florida to bring his son home. However, when he arrived, Brandy and the kids were nowhere to be found. Shortly after, the Polk County Sheriff's Department received a tip that led them to a trailer where Brandy was hiding out with Aiden and Hannah in tow. However, when deputies arrived on scene, Brandy had done the unthinkable...
