Episode 56: When Grease Is Not The Word

Six Degrees of WTF

Today, our virtual true crime road trip takes us to Iowa and Maryland.
Erin kicks things off with the mysterious death of 2-year-old Ricky Morehouse III. His mother claimed that the house caught fire and she was only able to save Ricky's twin brother, Reggy. Investigators deemed the fire an act of arson, but was Ricky's death an accident?
O'Dell then travels to Baltimore to tell the story of the unsolved death of 14-year-old Carolyn Wasilewski, a young woman whose interest in the "drape" culture may have led to her murder. This case inspired John Waters' film, "Cry Baby".
Erin closes things out with the story of a kid who went to extreme lengths to get out of community service.
