#56: The Unsolved 2008 Lane Bryant Shooting
Monday Jan 11, 2021
Monday Jan 11, 2021
Unsolved cases haunt us all, but unsolved mass murders are even more mystifying and rare--especially when there is an apparent treasure-trove of evidence at hand. It’s infuriating and maddening.
This case has haunted Amy for years, so with the help of Kevin and some great source material, the True Crime Dumpster dives into this sad and seemingly solvable case. Let 2021 be the year of solving all the cold cases!
Also, our apologies for switching up Rhoda’s name (we sometimes referred to her as Rhonda). She is one of the true heroes of this story, so we are sincerely sorry for any name mix-up.

Friday Nov 13, 2020
Friday Nov 13, 2020
It’s Friday the 13th again, so we are coming back to you this week with a crazy tale that happened on June 13, 1980.

When their lives get tangled up in a lukewarm affair, all hell breaks loose. Join Kevin and Amy as they dive into the dumpster to talk out this trash. Thanks for listening!

Episode 48: Gary Heidnik (Silence of the Lambs)
Thursday Oct 29, 2020
Thursday Oct 29, 2020
It doesn't get much worst than Gary Heidnik--a true garbage person who tortured, raped, abused, and killed women. He joins the list of a whole lot of Bad Garys we've talked about since the beginning of our podcast.
He is "famously" known for being part of the inspiration for the character of Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs which, if you've seen the movie, is not a good thing.
Join us and our Canadian shredder pal, Kay, as we talk trash above a very depraved, very sick human as we "celebrate" 1 year of our podcast.
