[35] Now, back to Listow Canada.

[36] Here we go.

[37] I'm from Listowl, the town that Letterkenny was based off of, from which the creator, Jared Kiso, hails, friend of the family.

[38] Friend of the family against his will, probably.

[39] Jake and Tune is more of the actual friend, I believe.

[40] Okay.

[41] Let me tell you, it's an embarrassingly accurate depiction of our tiny town.

[42] Right down to the name of the bar, Mo Dean's Roadhouse.

[43] And that's M .O. Dean, Mo Dean's Roadhouse, which I adore, which is basically our only bar in town and closed down a few years ago.

[44] Someone even made a replica of the Letterkenny logo and replaced our town sign with it for a while.

[45] And again, shout out to our friend Neil Mahoney, who was obsessed with the show and even had a Letterkenny themed birthday party.

[46] That's right.

[47] Anyways, that's not what I want to talk about.

[48] Are you sure?

[49] I want to tell you about perhaps our most infamous crime, the murder of Jesse Keith.

[50] I remember hearing the story as a kid and thinking my older sister was just trying to scare me. But when she took me to visit Jesse Keith's grave, I realized it was true.

[51] I booted up our old Dell computer and waited for the dial -up to connect before doing some more research.

[52] Probably some five hours later, I had found all the information I needed.

[53] Jesse Keith was just 13 years old when on October 18.

[54] 1994.

[55] Her throat was slit.

[56] Her body stripped.

[57] Her corpse mutilated.

[58] Oh.

[59] I know.

[60] The scene was so horrific that town's folks thought Jack the Ripper had come to Canada and was on the loose in Ontario.

[61] Adrift.

[62] It's so crazy that that's how unfucking believable, a crime like that was.

[63] That it's like, yeah, you're just trying to like, you can't wrap your head around it.

[64] Totally.

[65] It can't be anyone in your town.

[66] Exactly.

[67] It's so sad.

[68] A drifter known as Almead Chattel was accused shortly thereafter as he had been spotted around the train tracks near her house that day.

[69] Almead was apprehended five days after Keith's murder and was found carrying of a lease containing female undergarments.

[70] He confessed to the crime but later recanted his statement.

[71] Nonetheless, he was found guilty and hanged on May 31st, 1895, making him the first man to be hanged in Perth County.

[72] Strangely, in 2011, while reconstructing the old jailhouse, his remains, along with those of the second man to be hanged in Perth County, were found under the foundation.

[73] I guess they just left their bodies there and paved them over.

[74] After her death, Jessie's family had a large statue of a young girl with ruby eyes erected over her grave in our local cemetery.

[75] To this day, it remains the largest, and in my opinion, the most beautiful headstone in our cemetery, although the rubies were.

[76] were stolen years ago.

[77] The story of Jesse Keith has become something of folklore in our little town, used to scare kids into staying away from strangers, and visiting her grave has become a dare that angsty teenagers do for fun on Halloween, hoping to catch a glimpse of Jesse's ghost dancing around her headstone.

[78] I hope sharing this with you all will bring her ancestors some peace in knowing that her tale is not forgotten.

[79] Stay sexy and pitter -patter, let's get at her.

[80] am, which must be there, which much be towel towns, uh, fucking battle cry.

[81] No, no, no. That's from Letterkenny.

[82] Great.

[83] But maybe same thing, kind of same, same is what they're saying.

[84] Wow.

[85] The way when you first said that a statue of a girl with ruby eyes seemed like something that would be quite haunting if it was still around, but especially in a cemetery.

[86] Yeah.

[87] But I love that Sam was like, I hope her ancestors find some solace.

[88] That's sweet.

[89] Okay.

[90] Here's my first one.

[91] This is the subject line is badass survivor story.

[92] Great.

[93] And it starts just like this.

[94] It doesn't matter.

[95] I know you know I wish everyone well.

[96] I sent this in a few months ago, but it was about 30 pages long.

[97] So I'm not surprised it wasn't read.

[98] Smart.

[99] smart.

[100] However, it's a pretty amazing story.

[101] So here's the abridged version.

[102] I got sent home from campus in the fall due to COVID.

[103] Parentheses, I was fine.

[104] There were just a lot of cases.

[105] One night at the dinner table, my mom was telling stories to cheer me up.

[106] And she casually mentioned in between bites that someone was murdered in the house I grew up in, mom.

[107] Anyway, of course, I immediately looked it up after dinner.

[108] And I realized she got something wrong.

[109] It wasn't a murder story.

[110] It was a survivor story.

[111] Susan Shoneman Shuneman was 19 years old in 1985, studying cosmetology while living in Savannah, Georgia.

[112] From a payphone a few blocks from her house, Susan called a bar.

[113] She thought her sister, Krista, who was visiting from Savannah, would be in.

[114] The bartender handed the phone to Krista, and at some point they got into an argument.

[115] During the call, a man asked Susan for directions to Bolton Street.

[116] In fuck politeness fashion, she said, I don't know, and continued with the call.

[117] However, the man came back with a gun and forced Susan to come with him.

[118] Since they were in an argument, Krista just thought she hung up the phone.

[119] They made their way down West Gwinnett Street and ended up behind a great clapboard row house, the house I would eventually grow up in.

[120] He punched her, shot her, raped her, and left her naked in a crawl space of the house.

[121] But Susan wasn't going to give up that easy.

[122] She mustered up enough strength to crawl out from under the house, climb over a four -foot wall and then walk up three flights of stairs to a neighboring apartment for help after two and a half weeks in the hospital she was released.

[123] To make an extremely long and extremely sad story short, there were no leads to so the investigation was closed administratively.

[124] Susan eventually went back to cosmetology school in Savannah and by 2001 she was a professional hairstylist married with two children.

[125] The day before she and her husband were going to sign a contract on a house in Atlanta, her mother called her crying.

[126] There was a serial rapist loosed in the area.

[127] She begged them not to move there.

[128] Mom, do you not get it?

[129] She responded, there are rapes occurring every single day.

[130] I'm not going to allow another rapist to keep me from doing what I feel I'm supposed to do.

[131] On the 30th anniversary of the attack, a community newspaper published an open letter that Susan wrote to her attacker.

[132] Quote, I have often wondered if I ever crossed your mind.

[133] If you ever knew that I lived survived your wrath that fateful night.

[134] Whether you do or not, I write this to inform you that not only did I physically survive you, I have overcome the hell and utter destruction you caused by the grace of God I lived to tell, unquote.

[135] Susan is now the director of the Piedmont Rape Crisis Center where she answers several hundred calls a year from local women.

[136] Stay sexy, and if you're going to grow up in a crime scene, make sure it's one with a badass survivor.

[137] That's from Sheldon, whose pronouns are she, her.

[138] That is incredible.

[139] It's not unbelievable.

[140] So empowering and beautiful.

[141] And it's very cool that that on the 30th anniversary that that paper published that open letter.

[142] Totally.

[143] That's really amazing.

[144] I think that's what a cool thing to have people be able to like make a statement like that or.

[145] you know, kind of make that show of empowerment.

[146] That's very, very cool.

[147] Very.

[148] I'm not going to read you the title because it gives it all away.

[149] Hi, Queens and Stephen.

[150] Fuck.

[151] Yeah.

[152] Let's get into it.

[153] You all have asked for stories on cocaine bathtubs and burning down the house before and this story has it all.

[154] Wow.

[155] Long story short, my dad is one of my best friends, but he has undiagnosed ADD and gets distracted easily.

[156] He was cooking one afternoon.

[157] about 20 years ago and got distracted by a movie on TV.

[158] Unfortunately, the stir fry oil ended up catching on fire and burning down our kitchen with the smoke going into the vents.

[159] What?

[160] Luckily, no one was hurt, but my dad ended up putting it out with buckets of pool water, which is not recommended.

[161] I bet.

[162] We had to move into a rented house while our kitchen was being rebuilt and smoke cleared from the vents.

[163] My dad was in charge of finding the renovation cruise.

[164] My dad found this sketchy European man will call Tony to do the countertop granite for an exceedingly reasonable price.

[165] Always a red flag.

[166] Anyways, one day Tony broke a large piece of granite and my mom and him got into several phone arguments for a few days.

[167] The next week, my mom got a call into her supervisor's office.

[168] Did I mention my mom is one of the first female FBI agents?

[169] Oh.

[170] Well, she is.

[171] And her supervisor wanted to know why she was making so many calls to one of the top cocaine smugglers from Europe.

[172] That's right.

[173] You see, Tony's phones were tapped and the reason the granite was so cheap is because that was clearly his side hustle since he used the granite and marble to smuggle in the cocaine.

[174] Needless to say, that contract was quickly terminated.

[175] I can't believe my parents didn't get a divorce that year, but they're still together 35 years later.

[176] Thanks again for being so open about mental health and women empowerment.

[177] Also, my mom and I have a complicated relationship because she's a big Trump supporter, but I like telling these stories of her past to remind me of how much of a badass she is.

[178] I've sent in previous stories about her, so hope they get read one day.

[179] Best see.

[180] Wow.

[181] I just like that that person who's like has the marble dealer, who I guess that's the front, front of his business or front, whatever you call that, that's what he fronts with, that he's doing business with FBI agents and doesn't know it.

[182] Yeah.

[183] Yeah.

[184] How good could he be?

[185] Great point.

[186] I didn't think of that.

[187] Do a little research.

[188] And then arguing with them about broken marble.

[189] Don't argue with an FBI agent just replace the marble.

[190] Or just casually ask when you're hanging out in the kitchen one day, like, hey, what do you do?

[191] You know, just get like, do a little recon.

[192] Yeah.

[193] Okay.

[194] I'm not going to read you the subject line of this one.

[195] and just starts, hello, my favorite people.

[196] I hail from Monroe County, Michigan, which is a bunch of nothing in between Detroit and Toledo.

[197] There's a small city of Monroe at the center, but the rest of the county is quite rural.

[198] I was re -listening to Karen tell the horrible story of PSA Flight 1771 and suddenly remembered that a plane crash definitely happened around here when I was very young.

[199] I headed straight to the internet and got really sucked in and found out a bunch of stuff I never knew before.

[200] So here's the tragic story.

[201] Calm Air Flight 3272 was headed from Cincinnati to Detroit on January 9, 1997.

[202] This is typically a short, easy flight, probably around 45 minutes.

[203] Aboard the flight were three crew members and 26 passengers.

[204] The pilots were beginning to receive pre -landing instructions when the plane suddenly rolled 145 degrees to the left, then violently rolled back to the right, and then nose dived straight down into a rural field located between Monroe.

[205] and the nearby town of Dundee.

[206] This crash site was a mere 18 miles from the Detroit Metro Airport, aka literal minutes from the flight's destination.

[207] The whole plane was obliterated by the impact, much like PSA 1771 was in your story.

[208] All 29 people on board died.

[209] I don't want to attempt to get technical, but basically weather conditions had caused ice to build up on the plane, which caused the engines to abruptly, abruptly stall mid -flight.

[210] Apparently, there was a de -icing mechanism, but these pilots had been wrongly instructed to wait until some ice built up before activating it.

[211] This next piece of information really blew my mind.

[212] Although only two of the passengers had actually been from here, all of the unidentified remains were buried at a memorial site in Monroe County's own Rose Lawn Cemetery.

[213] Finding this out was pretty crazy for me because this very cemetery literally bordered the property I grew up on and is where both of my parents are buried.

[214] I even found a local article from a few years ago about how fellow calm air pilots had traveled to Monroe to visit the memorial for the 20th anniversary of the crash and people leave roses at the memorial every single year on January 9th.

[215] Oh, and one last thing, that May Day show Karen talked about totally did an episode on this, but I couldn't figure out a way to watch it.

[216] Sorry if this was too long.

[217] Never stopped doing everything you do.

[218] You're amazing.

[219] Stay sexy.

[220] and don't be afraid to fly, it's much safer now, Philip.

[221] Wow, Philip.

[222] Yeah, that's, I mean, also it's just really crazy because I think having, it's so awful, obviously, to have it happen, but to be in the town, just like thinking of the other side of it where it's like a plane crashes in your town or just outside of your town.

[223] And it's one of those things are like, you get on a quick flight and it feels, you feel invincible.

[224] It's 45 minutes.

[225] It's not a big deal.

[226] But you get on the long flights and you feel like it's scary.

[227] And it's just like, I hate hearing those stories.

[228] Yeah.

[229] Yeah.

[230] Well, and they're not that common.

[231] I think that's the other reason that people, you know, want to tell a story like that is because they happen so rarely compared to how many flights happen.

[232] Totally.

[233] Karen, you know I'm all about vintage shopping.

[234] Absolutely.

[235] And when you say vintage, you mean when you physically drive to a store and actually purchase.

[236] something with cash.

[237] Exactly.

[238] And if you're a small business owner, you might know Shopify is great for online sales.

[239] But did you know that they also power in -person sales?

[253] Goodbye.

[254] All right, for my last story, remember how C, whose dad worded down the kitchen and hired a cocaine importer to renovate it, which was the title of the last one, said I also sent in some stories of my mom who was the first FBI agent.

[255] Well, I looked it up and found one of those stories she had sent in in the past.

[256] Great.

[257] It's Seas show now.

[258] Perfect.

[259] All right.

[260] So this one's from a while before, and it says, hi, Karen, Georgia, Stephen, beloved Anna.

[261] and fellow murderinos.

[262] My name is Celeste, so C is Celeste, and I just started listening to my favorite murder this year.

[263] I'm so obsessed, I'm going back and catching up on all the past episodes.

[264] So if this is red, it may take some time, it may take me some time to hear it.

[265] I'm a head and neck surgeon that specializes in facial plastics and reconstruction.

[266] I listen to this podcast on drives and while wearing headphones walking into the hospital.

[267] I often think that if the other doctors or patients, knew what I was listening to, they'd be super freaked out.

[268] I have tons of crazy fucked up trauma stories, but that's for another time.

[269] Anyways, I wanted to write you about my badass mom.

[270] Her family is Lebanese that immigrated through Mexico, then to Texas, so she speaks English, Spanish, and Arabic.

[271] She started working for the FBI as a clerk in the early 70s to put herself through college for a criminal justice degree.

[272] When she graduated in the late 70s, they just started allowing females to become FBI agents.

[273] Wow.

[274] Since my mom had worked there for several years and spoke those languages, she was recruited.

[275] I attached a photo of her training at Quantico, which we have.

[276] And Stephen, let's put it in the Instagram post.

[277] When she has a few glasses of wine, the murderino in me loves to get some of her stories sampled below.

[278] She told me about the time in the early 80s, she was in Puerto Rico doing helicopter surveillance on F -A -L -N, a Puerto Rican terrorist group that had made several bombing attacks on the U .S. in the late 70s to mid -80s.

[279] I'd attach a link, but I know you all don't like those.

[280] We like them if you've told the story, but you can't use the link to tell the story, right?

[281] Yeah, links aren't, don't help in an email that we're reading.

[282] Right.

[283] I feel like she's like, I'm not lying.

[284] Here's a link.

[285] She and her fellow agents had made an arrest in the morning.

[286] Sure, totally normal.

[287] When they were done, she and the pilot decided to tour around the island in the helicopter and she put on regular clothes.

[288] While in the air, they heard on the radio there was a raid and a shootout.

[289] So the pilot quickly turned around to join the fray and my mom in her tank top in shorts, pulled on a bulletproof vest and ended up jumping out of the helicopter and tackling one of the assailants to the ground like a freaking spider monkey.

[290] Another time she told me about a drug bust in Miami, I like to think of her as undercover in the movie Blow, when she found one of the drug lords in the ventilation system in only his underwear.

[291] He had all that insulation and fiberglass sticking to his skin and was writhing around in the back seat of her squad car because he was itching so bad.

[292] I also remember that one time when I was in second grade, I missed the school bus.

[293] And she had to take me in her undercover car, though I wasn't supposed to ever go in it.

[294] There was a giant shotgun attached to the inner roof of her car.

[295] Again, totally normal.

[296] A few years later, she was in a car chase when she got teaboned by another car.

[297] She pulled the guy over and drew her weapon to get him out.

[298] But he turned out just to be a drunk, which she was naturally pissed about.

[299] Though she did more terrorist and drug cartel work, she was there when the behavioral science unit was really getting started at the FBI.

[300] and remembers taking classes at Quantico about profiling serial killers.

[301] She loves mine hunters, but watching it for her is like me watching Gray's Anatomy.

[302] That thing of like, I do this for a living and that's not how it works in the OR, you know?

[303] You just want to argue the whole thing.

[304] Anyways, that's a sampling of tales I wanted to share with you all.

[305] I also wanted to say that my relationship with my mom is complicated and could be strained.

[306] I want to thank you both for talking about your complex relationships.

[307] relationships with your mothers.

[308] I know how much my mom has done for me, but she's insanely stubborn and I'm learning that I don't need to feel guilty for being frustrated or angry with her.

[309] For example, she's a Trump supporter.

[310] This podcast, my own therapy and our mutual love of true crime has helped us bond because I ask her to tell me stories to write to you all, which she loves, rather than getting into more political arguments over the holidays.

[311] Stay sexy and don't get Exo, Exo, Exo, Celeste.

[312] All right.

[313] Celeste.

[314] Well done.

[315] Okay, cool.

[316] Here's my last story.

[317] All right.

[318] I want to redo the subject line.

[319] Hey, guys.

[320] On a recent minisode, you guys said submission boxes never close.

[321] So I'm bringing my submission for times.

[322] Your parents almost killed you back up to the top of your inbox.

[323] Yeah.

[324] I would like to preface the story by saying, my parents are incredible people.

[325] You don't have to do that.

[326] They always are when they almost get.

[327] yeah guess what it's not going to matter when people judge them after whatever we're about to read my parents are incredible people and child neglect was never an issue growing up that being said here we go so this incident happened when i was only one years old so i've only heard it retold but it gets retold every three to five years one year on family vacation we vacation near lake erie and on one of the days we took a boat to kelly's island who was in charge of of what kids, who was in charge of what kids on this day is still pretty hotly debated.

[328] Nobody was in charge of anybody.

[329] I fucking promise you.

[330] Everyone was like real casual agreements the night before during, on the eighth beer.

[331] Or it was like, the kids will take care of each other.

[332] Don't worry about it.

[333] But this story, I believe the most.

[334] My dad was supposedly in charge of all the older kids, toddler age and up.

[335] But my mom was in charge of me who was only one, a one year old.

[336] baby at the time groups split up that day and my dad had the little ones and went to do quote age appropriate activities and my mom and her sisters found a winery on the island to get their to get their drink on yeah they did in parentheses baby me along for the ride um the day one is planned and the groups met back up at the end of the day to catch the boat back to good old ohio on the walk back to the boat someone parentheses still unclear who initially said it said it said where's Aaron?

[337] Oh, no, no, no. And then in pretheses, it says, baby me. My mom describes this moment almost in slow motion.

[338] She claims everything stopped as she looked around the group for me and realized I was nowhere to be found.

[339] And this is in all caps.

[340] She drunkenly left me at the winery.

[341] I'm not.

[342] Oh, my God.

[343] Oh, my God.

[344] My mom then, quote, ran faster than she has ever ran in her life.

[345] Fucking better.

[346] Back to the winery.

[347] which is hard to believe since she was plastered and found me sitting all caps outside the winery in a puddle of mud.

[348] No. That's like a band.

[349] Apparently no drunk vacationers on the island that day found me worthy of kidnapping.

[350] To this day, my parents still argue on who left me and also argue about who noticed I was missing.

[351] Not the parents.

[352] I personally believe that my seven -year -old brother at the time was the one that pointed out my absence, but who's to say?

[353] Anyway, I hope you found the story as funny as I still do.

[354] Stay sexy and don't leave your one -year -old at a winery, Aaron.

[355] P .S., since this original email, my parents recently took a trip back to the island.

[356] They drunkenly took selfies next to some dirt outside the winery and sent them to me saying, this is where we almost lost you forever.

[357] Oh, my God.

[358] I feel like that winery was like another baby was let like that can't have been the first time and here's where we ask for submissions of people who own and run wineries what's the craziest thing you've ever seen well because also wineries are a great way for alcoholics to pretend like they're doing a they're doing an activity that isn't alcohol based because it's about the winery and the tour and the details of loving wine and but it doesn't matter because like having grown up in wine country.
