    In this special Memorial Day episode of True Crime Time For, Woody Overton reflects on why long holiday weekends always seem to bring violence, mass shootings, chaos, and tragedy across America.
    Woody opens the episode discussing how Memorial Day historically becomes one of the deadliest weekends of the year, with shootings and murders happening coast to coast every single year.
    Woody explains why Madison’s case continues to grow larger than many people realize and says multiple angles involving several missing women connected to the same circles are actively being looked at. He also talks openly about frustrations surrounding online criticism, difficult investigations, and why complex homicide cases take time to properly build.
    “This Day in History” focuses on serial killer Bobby Joe Long, who was executed in Florida after pleading guilty to murdering eight women and confessing to raping dozens more.
    Additional stories include:
    Woody replaying portions of a previous Memorial Day episode discussing nationwide violence, shootings, and chaos during Memorial Day weekend 2025
    A South Carolina charter boat shooting that left 11 people injured after an argument escalated on Memorial Day weekend
    Multiple mass casualty incidents, stabbings, and shootings occurring across cities including Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., and Atlantic Beach during Memorial Day celebrations
    A Pennsylvania addiction specialist doctor accused of sexually assaulting vulnerable women by threatening to withhold treatment and medications
    A horrifying Alabama animal cruelty case involving a Chihuahua puppy allegedly placed inside an oven and burned alive
    A former Harvard Medical School morgue manager accused of stealing and selling human body parts, including brains, skin, faces, and bones from donated cadavers
    A Miami nurse practitioner accused of pulling her own mother’s breathing tube inside an ICU room while family members watched
    An Italian cryptocurrency trader allegedly kidnapped, tortured, and held captive for weeks inside a luxury Manhattan apartment
    A South Carolina child sex ring investigation involving former firefighters, police officers, and multiple adults accused of abusing children over decades
    Woody closes the episode reminding listeners that evil exists everywhere — including behind badges, degrees, titles, and professional careers — and stresses that nobody is above the law.
