About Those Murder Girls Podcast

Those Murder Girls Podcast centers on true crime stories that feel undercovered, unresolved, or mishandled. The cases are often heartbreaking from the start. Reina’s narration favors a chronological walk through the facts, then lingers on the choices, contradictions, and missed warnings that make each story feel harder to shake. One episode follows Dr. Mark Sawusch, a Malibu ophthalmologist whose illness, isolation, alleged drugging, and financial exploitation become part of a sprawling account of fraud and abuse. Another follows Eric Richins and a marriage described through suspicion, money trouble, pills, property, and an alleged path toward murder. The Oliver 3 episode turns toward Texas, three young girls found in a pond, and a mother left with devastating questions about what happened and how authorities responded. The show also reaches into older investigations, as in the Karen Stitt case, where genetic genealogy, anonymous tips, and decades-old evidence reopen a murder from 1982. Not every episode follows the same format. Interviews and vault releases widen the frame, including a conversation with true crime author David Dominé about A Dark Room in Glitter Ball City and revisited stories involving Isabella Kalua, Toni Lopez Wells, and Matthew Weaver. The register is casual. The details are heavy. Reina often speaks with visible anger when a victim appears to have been ignored, endangered, manipulated, or failed. That gives the show a strong emotional current, especially in episodes involving children and families. It is not polished in a detached documentary style. It sounds closer to a friend laying out a terrible case, stopping to ask why no one acted sooner and why obvious warning signs were missed. The result is a case-forward true crime feed with grief, suspicion, courtroom stakes, and blunt moral clarity running through it.

Made for: For true crime listeners who prefer lesser-covered cases, detailed timelines, and emotionally direct narration over detached case summaries. It especially fits audiences interested in missing persons, family violence, cold cases, and justice-system questions.

What sets it apart: The show pairs conversational outrage with dense case detail, giving equal weight to paperwork, timelines, family context, and the emotional cost of delayed answers.

Eric Richins - Kamas, UtahMay 19, 2023

A marriage case told with blunt, high-drama conviction.

Eric Richins is presented as a marriage that looked polished from the outside before the case turns into a compact true-crime account. It moves through the 2013 wedding, the three children, the prenup signed that day, the money trouble, and Eric's 2022 death with suspicion…

Interview with True Crime Author David Dominé - Old Louisville, KentuckyMar 17, 2023

A Louisville true crime interview that leans into personality, atmosphere, and a very strange case.

Those Murder Girls turns to David Domenet and A Dark Room in Glitter Ball City, moving from Reina's interview through the book's drag queens, drugs, scandal, and three-story mansion to the Louisville case at its core.
