We Saw the Devil: A True Crime Podcast

Day-by-day courtroom coverage of the cases everybody's arguing about, done with the filings in front of me. Not vibes. Not a theory somebody's cousin saw on TikTok. The actual record: what the witness said, what the document says, which expert has never treated the condition they were hired to testify about. Murder, medical neglect, prosecutorial games, and the cases nobody bothers covering because the victim wasn't the right kind of victim. Then the part most true crime skips. Who let it happen. Which agency looked away, which law made it possible, which doctor never returned the call, which department was too underfunded to answer the phone. Every case sits inside a system, and the system is usually the whole story. That's where the politics shows up, and it shows up because the facts drag it in, not because I went looking for a soapbox. Hosted by Robin Coleman. Sourced, furious, filthy, and allergic to pretending cruelty is just another perspective. Y'all, this is not a polite little show for people who want everything softened, centered, and served with a bipartisan garnish. No spin. No filter. Just facts. We don't do fair. We do factual.

  Tennessee, Christa Pike, and an Execution Scheduled for Next Wednesday

  Sep 26, 20261h 14m

  ***Show note: Robin is still insanely sick with COVID and this episode is not closely edited. On January 12, 1995, 18-year-old Christa Pike lured 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer to an abandoned steam plant on the University of Tennessee's agricultural campus and tortured her to death. She took a piece of Colleen's skull back to her dorm and showed it off at breakfast. She confessed. She has never denied any of it. She was also sexually abused from the age of two. At five, she drew her abuser for a kindergarten teacher, and the school called her parents. At eleven, a neighbor raped her, pleaded down, and served no prison time. At seventeen, a stranger raped her, and nobody was ever arrested. She was born with brain damage and had bipolar disorder and PTSD, none of it diagnosed until years after a jury sentenced her to die. That jury never heard any of it. Before trial, prosecutors offered her life without parole. Her lawyers spent about ninety minutes on it and didn't advise her to take it. Her co-defendant, who testified years later that he carved the pentagram, was seventeen. He got life with parole and is eligible now. The third participant got probation. On Wednesday, September 30, Tennessee plans to execute her. It would be the first woman the state has executed since 1819. The physician overseeing it is the same one who spent over an hour failing to find a vein during Tony Carruthers' execution attempt in May. Her clemency petition sits on Governor Bill Lee's desk.

  The R.C. Horsch Olney House Crematorium Link | Clavicular Rape Charge | Nolan Wells No Indictment

  Sep 24, 20261h 7m

  Robin has COVID, a 103 degree fever, and a voice held together with tape. The episode goes out anyway, because Olney won't stop breaking. It is 100% unedited, so what you're hearing is what you're getting. Sorry, folks. THE OLNEY HOUSE, PART THREE: ACCESS New reporting from the Philadelphia Inquirer says the late pornographer Raymond "R.C." Horsch had access to a Kensington crematorium connected to the Garzone Funeral Home. The owners of that funeral home later pleaded guilty to selling more than 240 corpses for body parts. Sources say Horsch paid an employee in drugs and cash so he could photograph and film the dead. Years later, he staged a gallery show that ended with a woman's body going into an incinerator. We also cover: - Two women who posed for Horsch inside the Chew Avenue house describe the smell, the mold, and the one rule about the basement - Blair Tonzelli's former roommate tells 6abc the Horsches used Kensington's streets as a hunting ground - New details from the June traffic stop that started the case - Eugene Horsch's federal trial moves to March (a correction to our last episode) - The self-written Wikipedia page, the pen name, and the 1973 film title that says it all - Why the same number, 58, keeps coming up - Police plans for a deeper search that could mean removing walls and floorboards Seven women are connected to the house, and police believe five are dead. No bodies have been recovered and no one has been charged with homicide. R.C. Horsch died in 2025 and was never charged in connection with the missing women. Eugene Horsch faces federal weapons and false credential charges, is not charged in connection with any of the women, and is presumed innocent. NEWS DROP: CLAVICULAR Braden Peters, the 20 year old looksmaxxing streamer known as Clavicular, is charged in Orleans District Court in Massachusetts with rape, drugging a person for sexual intercourse, and procuring liquor for a person under 21. The charges stem from an alleged May 2025 incident in Chatham involving a 17 year old. Peters denies the allegations. He has not been arraigned and has not entered a plea, and he is presumed innocent. His arraignment is set for October 14. We also look at the podcast circuit that kept booking him all summer. NEWS DROP: NOLAN WELLS A Jackson County, Mississippi grand jury returned no indictments in the death of 18 year old Nolan Wells. His body was found off Horn Island after a Fourth of July boat trip. The grand jury found his death consistent with drowning, while both the state medical examiner and the family's pathologist ruled the cause undetermined. We cover what the report found, what it didn't, and the district attorney's handling of the announcement. We also cover the online mob that doxxed and threatened his friends.

  The Olney House, Update #2: Seven Women, One House, and the Man Who Told Us Exactly What He Was

  Sep 20, 20261h 31m

  In June, a federal park ranger wrote down a license plate on Independence Mall. Three months later, Philadelphia is running the strangest death investigation in the city since Gary Heidnik, and it has no bodies in it. This is the second episode on the Olney house. Since I last covered it, the numbers have changed completely. Four missing women became seven. Two believed dead became five. Five percent of the digital evidence reviewed became thirty percent, out of more than a million images and videos, with fifty eight separate human beings identified inside them. Robin walks through everything that broke at the September 16th press conference: the new name, Nicole Fusaro, and the video Philadelphia police say shows Raymond "R.C." Horsch tightening a zip tie around her neck with a plumbing tool. The sixth woman her family asked not to name. The seventh woman who has no name at all. The 2017 metadata that gives investigators a window and gives one defendant an alibi. The sixteen survivors who were found alive and refused to help police, and the reasons that is completely rational. Then the part that makes this case nearly unprosecutable: some women who appear dead in that footage have been found alive. R.C. Horsch spent fifty years manufacturing images of women pretending to die, and he was good enough at it that homicide detectives in 2026 cannot tell his performances from his crimes. He published the disposal method in a 2014 book under his own name, described himself as a natural at playing a perverted serial killer on a 2013 podcast, and died in his own bed at eighty two without ever being charged. And the spine of the episode: every single time the state of Pennsylvania was already standing in the room. A 1985 psychiatric report that a retired FBI agent says describes a potential serial killer. A 2009 search warrant that turned up other women's IDs and a police chief who never heard what became of them. A 2016 sit-down interview with the last man to see a missing woman alive. A 2025 search of the house itself, written up as a narcotics matter. Families pointing at the address for years. Five chances. Zero response. One parking ticket. Plus: a cousin taking the Philadelphia Police Department to the DOJ Civil Rights Division, five urns with three tentative answers, fifty containers of something sitting in a federal lab in Chicago, and a safe sealed in a foundation in Bucks County that nobody has opened. Housekeeping this week: Robin is back from a week in Philadelphia, which included Circa Survive, the Mütter Museum, the Liberty Bell, Reading Terminal Market, two cheesesteaks, a near-death experience in the pit sixty seconds into the first song, and a serious argument about Kathleen Hanna, Bikini Kill, and who a room's default actually serves. Their names are Gabrielle Amarando, Amy McHale, Maribel Fresses, Nicole Fusaro, and Blair Tonzelli. There are two more.

  Breaking - Gisèle Pelicot 2.0: The Men Who Knew the Guest List Was for Rape

  Sep 12, 20261h 31m

  This episode covers rape, drug-facilitated sexual assault, and the death of a woman. Nothing in it is graphic for the sake of being graphic. Resources are below. Late on June 25, 2026, in the small Upper Austrian town of Marchtrenk, a teenage girl finds her mother unresponsive and bleeding. Paramedics pronounce her dead at 12:44 a.m. Her husband tells police it was rough, consensual sex that went wrong. That story lasts until the autopsy. Austrian prosecutors have said on the record that she was extremely intoxicated and unable to defend herself; that her husband is under investigation for sexual abuse of a defenseless person resulting in death; that a neighbor has confessed to abusing her twice, including the night she died; and that a third man was expected to take part and did not show. Reports of a wider paid network, secret drugging, and specific chat messages. From there the episode goes to Gisèle Pelicot: the 2024 Mazan trial, the fifty-one convictions, France’s 2025 consent-based rape law, her 2026 memoir A Hymn to Life: Shame Has to Change Sides, and her daughter Caroline Darian’s still-open fight to be believed without a hard drive full of proof. Then Stockport, England, where a husband has pleaded guilty to five rapes of his unconscious wife while twelve co-defendants stand trial beside him. Then the CNN investigation into the so-called rape academy: sleep-content platforms, Telegram groups, a Polish arrest that started with an undercover reporter, Project Medusa, and the viral 62-million figure that was wrong. The Reality Check covers how common incapacitated rape is, leftover marital-rape loopholes, what actually moves cases, and the men who were invited, declined, and told no one.

  The Lindsay Clancy Trial: The Jurors Speak, Reddington Makes Moves, & "Repeal the 19th"

  Sep 9, 20261h 17m

  The jury foreperson has a name now. Roni Carlson. She and two other women from that panel sat down with NBC10 this week and told everybody what actually went on in there for seven days, and one detail has been rattling around my skull since. The holdout admitted he had reasonable doubt. Out loud. To the room. She was so relieved she started filling out the verdict forms, all three of them, signed her name on each one. And then he said, "But I'm still not going to say that she's not guilty by reason of insanity." He wasn't confused. He got there. He walked all the way to the answer and then just declined to be moved by it, and that's the thing I can't put down, because it's the whole summer in one sentence. The rest of what those women described isn't much prettier. They said he was arrogant. Said he wouldn't engage. Said he brushed off the nurses on the panel when they walked him through the medications and the toxicology, which, if you're a woman who has ever been in a meeting, you already knew was coming. Meanwhile Kevin Reddington had a week. He went on Good Morning America and asked the President to pardon a woman facing state charges, which the President cannot do and which Reddington later admitted he knows perfectly well. I break down what that stunt was actually for and who it was actually aimed at, because it wasn't Trump. He floated a plea. He said he'd like to chat with the jurors, which is a normal thing for a lawyer to say and a slightly less normal thing to say five days after accusing one of them of perjury in open court. And before the courthouse doors shut, he announced his next client. She's charged with murdering her grandmother in North Adams and she's been sitting in a cell for nearly four years waiting for a trial. Every allegation in that case is unproven and she's pleaded not guilty, and I say so about eight times, because half the outlets covering it have already decided what it rhymes with. Also in here: the math Tim Cruz is staring at before the September 29 hearing, why a plea is probably the most humane outcome available and will satisfy nobody, and how a Brockton defense attorney became a folk hero to women who couldn't have picked him out of a lineup in July. Then the repeal-the-19th crowd, who did not go home after the mistrial and who are not who you think they are. And at the end, the boys. I went and read the actual research on raising sons who don't turn into manosphere sycophants.
