EP02: Child abandonment, forest survival, homicide, cannibalism, witchcraft, and an improbable house.
04/20/23 • 47 min
Elissa has found a strange case where everyone's behavior is criminal-- including the police. Step-mothers strike again as two children get abandoned to fend for themselves in the forest. They stumble upon a house owned by an old woman who practices cannibalism. Later, the girl (Gretel) is accused of murder when it was clearly self defense.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Sorry about the BG noise after the break.

EP03: Child trafficking, chattel trade for food, false imprisonment, accidental royal intervention.
PRODUCER'S NOTE: We're aware that there's a god-awful echo on poor Elissa and we apologize-- fixing it was beyond our editing skills. Next time we're using a different tool(s) so shouldn't have this problem so stick with us and we'll only get better.
Elissa brings an unusual case where an infant was traded by her parents for ... vegetables? She grew up in an awful household and eventually wound up helicopter parented so much she ended up literally imprisoned. A hapless idiot who had ties to the royal family happened to wander by and helps to liberate her from prison.
