Killer Queens: A Light True Crime Podcast | QCODE
We could tell you about our show, but in the words of LeVar Burton, "don't take our word for it!" Here is an actual listener's description of the show: "Think Cher Horowitz meets Dolly Parton... create a love child. Then THAT person meets Bill Kurtis.... and two random girls are the product of that.... that's Tyrella and Tori (sisters and hosts). Smart, weird, pretty, blonde, hilarious, southern, and just really okay with being themselves.... even when it is weird. It made me realize [they] became their role models without even meaning to." Give it a try if you like ANY of those people and/or a lighter take on your True Crime! For bonus episodes and premium content, find us on Patreon!

164: Alice Crimmins- Bad Mom or Double Standard?

Alice Crimmins was tried and convicted for the murders of her children.  She proclaimed her innocence throughout the trials that focused mostly on her sex life.  Did she kill little Eddie and Missy or were their deaths caused by someone else and pinned on Alice because she lived a life that wasn’t seen as appropriate for a woman in the 60s?

163: The Murder of Phil Hartman (with Special Guest Sloane)

160: Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders

On the morning of Sunday, June 12, 1977, over a hundred young girls and their families gathered at the Girl Scout headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Everyone was saying their goodbyes as the girls loaded onto their buses and headed for Camp Scott, just about an hour away in Mayes County, Oklahoma. The Girl Scout camp promised two weeks of adventure, swimming, horseback riding, crafts, and hiking. Some of the girls were excited for their trip, while others were nervous about spending 14 days away from their families. However, within 24 hours, the girls would be back on the buses heading back to Tulsa, with no explanation as to why. Three girls, 8-year-old Lori Farmer, 9-year-old Michelle Guse, and 10-year-old Denise Milner had been found dead that morning, laying in the woods about 100 feet from their tent. There was clear evidence of foul play. Almost 2 years later, after the largest manhunt in Oklahoma history, a man was arrested and charged with their murders. However, much of the community was not convinced that this was the man behind the massacre. The trial turned the courtroom and the community into a circus and seemed to forget about the most important question: Who killed Lori, Michelle, and Denise?

159: The Murder of Holly Bobo

In the early morning hours of Wednesday, April 13th, 2011, 20-year-old Holly Bobo was sitting at her kitchen table, studying for a nursing test she had that day. She said goodbye to her mother and father as they left for work. Around 7:40AM, Holly’s older brother Clint was awakened by their dog barking. He heard voices coming from the carport behind their home. Through the blinds, he saw his sister Holly kneeling on the ground facing a man in camo, arguing. They then got up and began walking into the woods. Clint quickly called his mother who told him to grab a gun and shoot the man. The two disappeared behind the trees and Holly was never seen again. Her remains were later found in the woods leaving Holly’s family and the small, close-knit community, who would’ve murdered the promising young nursing student, and why?

149: Unsolved: Delphi Murders

Monday February 13, 2017 was a warmer than normal day in the city of Delphi, Indiana. 14-year old Libby and 13-year-old Abby were excited to have a day off from school. The two decided to go for a hike on the Monon High Bridge Trail, not far from their homes. When Libby’s father arrived to pick the girls up, he couldn’t reach the girls by phone. He walked the trail, looking for the girls, figuring they’d simply lost track of time.  Less than 24 hours later, the deceased bodies of both girls were found, less than a mile from where they began their hike. It was clear from the scene that the girls had been victims of homicide, but what wasn’t clear was who targeted these teenage girls and why their day at the trails had ended so tragically.

Join our Patreon for as little as $3/month to get ad-free episodes and other perks. <<< Christmas is a time to be with loved ones, give and receive gifts, and celebrate all that you have.  It’s a time when the year is coming to an end and soon everyone will be making New Year's resolutions.  All the songs are joyful and uplifting and all the movies are hopeful and full of love. But we’re true crime junkies so we know that that shit isn’t real life and that real life is often terrible.   So, in this time of comfort and joy, we thought our awkward army of 90s loving, true crime addicted listeners might be ok with the cheer-level being taken down a few notches just for a little bit while we talk about some Christmases that were far more horrific than they were merry.

>>> GET THIS EPISODE AD FREE! Join our Patreon for as little as $3/month to get ad-free episodes and other perks. <<< It was a warm day in Tulsa, Oklahoma on June 7, 2011. A repairman had just walked out of a 32 story apartment building to grab some supplies from his truck. Another man nearby was taking a break from work and had stepped outside for some fresh air. A loud crash broke through the quiet afternoon and both men looked up to see Josh Hilberling falling from the broken window of his 25th floor apartment. He landed on the concrete roof of the 8th floor parking garage. His wife, Amber, 7 months pregnant and still in the apartment, screamed in terror and rushed down the elevator to him, but it was too late. 23-year-old Josh Hilberling was dead. Five years later, serving 25 years for the second degree murder of her husband, tragedy would strike the family again. Did she truly murder Josh, or was it a horrible accident?
