Episode 113-Gone by Thanksgiving: The Skelton Brothers of Morenci

Episode 113-Gone by Thanksgiving: The Skelton Brothers of Morenci
Episode description Over Thanksgiving weekend in 2010, three young brothers from Morenci, Michigan – Andrew (9), Alexander (7), and Tanner (5) Skelton – vanished while staying with their father, John Skelton, during a bitter custody dispute with their mother, Tanya Zuvers. John claimed he’d handed the boys over to a mysterious “organization” to protect them, spinning stories about a woman named Jo or Joann Taylor and an underground group that would keep the children hidden and safe. In the fifteen years since, no such group has ever been verified, no credible sightings of the boys have surfaced, and investigators have publicly said they believe the brothers were killed and their remains concealed somewhere between southern Michigan and northwest Ohio. This episode of [Podcast Name], “Gone by Thanksgiving: The Skelton Brothers of Morenci,” walks through the last known hours of Andrew, Alexander, and Tanner’s lives; the frantic searches across fields, ditches, and farm country; and the evolving lies John told about secret rescues and shadowy networks. We examine the digital and phone evidence that shifted the case from a possible parental abduction to a presumed triple homicide, the 2011 unlawful‑imprisonment conviction that kept John behind bars for up to 15 years, and the heartbreaking decision by Tanya to have her sons legally declared dead more than a decade after they disappeared. Finally, we bring the story into the present: in 2025, just as John’s sentence was nearing its end, prosecutors charged him with three counts of open murder and three counts of evidence tampering in connection with the boys’ disappearances, even though their bodies have never been found. Through court records, local reporting, and long‑form coverage, we explore what it means to seek justice in a no‑body homicide case, and how a small town and a mother live with fifteen Thanksgivings of unanswered questions. Content warnings: Child disappearance and presumed homicide, family violence, mention of suicide attempts, legal discussion of murder charges. “On Thanksgiving weekend 2010, brothers Andrew, Alexander, and Tanner Skelton vanished from Morenci, Michigan while visiting their father. He claimed a secret ‘organization’ took them to safety. Fifteen years later, the boys are presumed dead, and their father has finally been charged with their murder—despite no bodies ever being found. This episode traces the boys’ last known hours, the shifting lies, the searches across Michigan and Ohio, and the long road to murder charges in one of the Midwest’s most haunting family mysteries.” Sources used in this episode include: Local and regional reporting from ClickOnDetroit / WDIV‑Local 4 on the Skelton brothers’ disappearance and timeline of events; Fox 2 Detroit coverage of the 2010 Thanksgiving disappearance, ongoing searches, and 2025 murder charges; national reporting on the legal declaration of death and court proceedings; CBS Detroit coverage of the new murder and evidence‑tampering charges; and open‑source case discussions and anniversary pieces that compile interviews, law‑enforcement statements, and court records.

Episode 112-The Thanksgiving Day Massacre: The Merhige Family Murders
On Thanksgiving night, November 26, 2009, a family celebration in Jupiter, Florida turned into a scene of unimaginable horror. Thirty‑five‑year‑old Paul Michael Merhige joined relatives at Jim and Muriel Sitton’s home for what was supposed to be a peaceful holiday dinner. Hours later, he stepped outside, returned with a handgun, and opened fire on his own family. Four relatives were killed: his aunt, 76‑year‑old Raymonde Joseph; his twin sisters, Carla Merhige and Lisa Knight, who was pregnant; and six‑year‑old Makayla Sitton, murdered as she slept in her bed. In this episode, Murder, Blood, and Psychopaths traces the path to the Thanksgiving Day Massacre: the troubled history within the Merhige family, Paul’s long‑standing mental‑health struggles and disturbing threats, the horrific minutes inside the Sitton home, and the multi‑agency manhunt that ended with his capture at a motel in the Florida Keys. We then break down the court proceedings that led to seven consecutive life sentences, and the civil lawsuit that asked whether Paul’s parents could—or should—have prevented the massacre. Drawing on coverage from Investigation Discovery, ABC News, CBS News, and court and news records, this story examines how ignored warning signs, access to firearms, and holiday pressure can combine with deadly consequences. Content warnings: Family annihilation, gun violence, murder of a child, pregnancy loss, mental‑health themes.

Episode 106 - Shadows in the Night: Unsolved Mysteries That Haunt Us

Episode 106 - Shadows in the Night: Unsolved Mysteries That Haunt Us
Show Notes Script: "Shadows in the Night: Unsolved Mysteries That Haunt Us" Episode Summary: Tonight on Vanished: Mysteries of the Missing and Unexplained, we delve into the most chilling and perplexing cases from around the world. From a boy found in a box in Philadelphia, to a family lost in the Oklahoma mountains, to a killer who lived among his victims in Tokyo, these stories will leave you questioning what really happened—and why some mysteries may never be solved. Case 1: The Boy in the Box—America’s Unknown Child On February 25, 1957, the body of a young boy was discovered in a wooded area of Philadelphia’s Fox Chase neighborhood. The child, later identified as Joseph Augustus Zarelli, was just four years old. He was found nude, wrapped in a blanket, and placed inside a large cardboard box that had held a bassinet purchased at JCPenney. Joseph had been severely malnourished, beaten, and had multiple scars, some of which were surgical. Despite extensive publicity and hundreds of leads—including theories about foster homes, refugees, and even human trafficking—his identity remained unknown for over 65 years. In December 2022, breakthroughs in DNA technology finally revealed his name, but the mystery of who killed him and why remains unsolved. His story is a haunting reminder of the vulnerability of children and the enduring pain of unanswered questions. Case 2: The Jamison Family—Lost in the Oklahoma Mountains In October 2009, the Jamison family—Bobby, Sherilynn, and their six-year-old daughter Madyson—set out to inspect a 40-acre plot of land near Red Oak, Oklahoma, in the rugged Sans Bois Mountains. Eight days later, their locked pickup truck was found abandoned, with their dog, Maisie, still inside. The truck contained wallets, IDs, cell phones, a GPS, and a shocking $32,000 to $35,000 in cash. Surveillance footage from their home showed the couple making repeated, trancelike trips between their house and vehicle, and Sherilynn placing a mysterious brown briefcase in the truck—neither the briefcase nor her handgun was ever recovered. Four years later, hunters discovered the family’s skeletal remains less than three miles from the truck. No cause of death could be determined, and the case is still unsolved. Theories include family feuds, drug involvement, paranormal encounters, cult connections, foul play, and even witness protection. The Jamison family’s disappearance continues to haunt Oklahoma and the true crime community. Case 3: The Setagaya Family Murders—A Killer Who Lived Among the Dead On December 30, 2000, in Setagaya, Tokyo, a family of four—Mikio Miyazawa, his wife Yasuko, and their children Niina and Rei—were brutally murdered in their home. The killer entered through an unlocked window, murdered the family with a knife, and then stayed in the house for hours, eating food, using the computer, and even sleeping. He left behind a wealth of DNA evidence, fingerprints, and personal belongings, including clothing and a bag of sand from a nearby beach. Despite one of the most extensive investigations in Japanese history, the killer has never been identified. Theories range from a random intruder to a personal vendetta, but the motive remains unclear. The Setagaya murders are a haunting example of a killer who left behind countless clues yet remains at large. Case 4: Pauline Piccard—The Girl Who Was, and Wasn’t In April 1922, a young girl named Pauline Piccard vanished from her family’s farm in a small French village. Shortly after, a girl resembling Pauline was found miles away, but she did not recognize her family and remained mute. The family took her in, but she remained distant. A month later, another girl’s body was found with Pauline’s clothes nearby. Was this Pauline? Or was the girl brought home an imposter? Villagers and family members were divided, and authorities were baffled. The case became a media sensation, with debates about memory, trauma, and identity. No definitive conclusion was ever reached, and the true fate of Pauline Piccard remains a mystery. Case 5: The Zodiac Killer—Cryptic Messages and Enduring Fear Between 1968 and 1969, the Zodiac Killer terrorized the San Francisco Bay Area, killing at least five people and taunting police with cryptic letters and ciphers. The killer’s victims were targeted at random, and he often contacted police and newspapers with taunting messages and coded letters. Over 2,500 suspects were investigated, but the killer was never identified. Survivors and witnesses described a masked or disguised attacker, but no clear composite was ever established. Despite decades of investigation and amateur sleuthing, the Zodiac’s identity remains unknown. His ciphers have been partially solved, but the case continues to fascinate and terrify, a symbol of the elusive nature of evil. These stories remind us that, for some, answers never come. Whether it’s a child found in a box, a family lost in the mountains, a killer who leaves no trace, or a girl whose identity is forever in question—these mysteries tug at our fears and imaginations. They remind us how fragile life is and how much we still don’t understand about the world around us. If you have a mystery you want us to explore, reach out to us at mbpatcast.eandj@gmail.com.

Episode 94-"Into the Shadows: Uncovering the Dark Legacy of Three American Tragedies" Aundria Bowman, Kathleen Doyle and Adam Walsh
02/03/2025
Episode 94-"Into the Shadows: Uncovering the Dark Legacy of Three American Tragedies" Aundria Bowman, Kathleen Doyle and Adam Walsh
Episode Title: "Into the Shadows: Three Tragic Cases That Changed America" Episode Description: In this special, hour-long episode of MBP, we dive deep into three of America’s most heart-wrenching cases: the disappearance of Aundria Bowman, the brutal murder of Kathleen Doyle, and the abduction and murder of Adam Walsh. We explore how each case not only shattered lives but also transformed national policies on missing persons and child safety. Join us as we unravel the dark details, examine the enduring legacies, and reflect on how these tragedies continue to resonate in our society today. Segment 1: Aundria Bowman – The Lost Daughter Our first story begins with a young girl whose life was steeped in darkness from the very start. Born Alexis Miranda Badger on June 23, 1974, Aundria Bowman was adopted into a family that would later become synonymous with tragedy and secrets. At the age of 14, Aundria bravely accused her adoptive father of molestation—a revelation that sent shockwaves through her already tumultuous world. Not long after these accusations, Aundria vanished from her family’s rural Michigan property. For decades, her case was dismissed as that of an "endangered runaway." But as time passed, grim evidence and modern forensic breakthroughs forced a long-hidden truth into the light. In 2019, the arrest of Dennis Bowman on charges related to another murder reopened questions about Aundria’s disappearance. By early 2020, Dennis Bowman confessed to her murder, revealing that he had struck Aundria, causing a fatal head injury, and then dismembered her body. The discovery of her remains, concealed beneath a thin layer of cement near her family’s home, confirmed the unthinkable. Aundria Bowman’s tragic story is a stark reminder of how abuse and deceit can hide behind closed doors—and the persistent quest for justice can eventually bring the truth to light. Segment 2: W – The Norfolk Murder Our next case takes us to Norfolk, Virginia—a city haunted by a cold case that spanned nearly four decades. On September 11, 1980, 25-year-old Kathleen Doyle’s life was brutally cut short. At a time when forensic technology was in its infancy, her murder case soon grew cold, leaving a community desperate for answers. Nearly 40 years later, in a twist that would shock both the public and law enforcement, Dennis Bowman—a man already tainted by his past—was arrested in Norfolk. Initially detained for another heinous crime, Bowman’s connection to Kathleen Doyle’s murder emerged as investigators revisited old evidence with modern techniques. His confession, coupled with the overwhelming weight of forensic findings, led to a plea that brought some measure of closure. Dennis Bowman was sentenced to two life sentences for the murder of Kathleen Doyle, a verdict that underscored the relentless pursuit of justice despite the decades-long delay. Kathleen’s case not only serves as a testament to the pain of unresolved loss but also as a stark reminder of how renewed investigative efforts can eventually crack even the coldest of cases. Segment 3: Adam Walsh – A Tragedy That Sparked a Movement Our final story is perhaps the most transformative in the annals of American true crime. On July 27, 1981, six-year-old Adam Walsh was abducted from the parking lot of the Hollywood Mall in Florida—a moment that plunged a nation into despair. The abduction of Adam Walsh shocked the country and set off one of the most exhaustive search efforts in U.S. history. The case was further complicated by the involvement of notorious serial killer Ottis Toole, whose inconsistent confessions have left a lingering sense of uncertainty. Yet, it was Adam’s father, John Walsh, who turned personal tragedy into a nationwide crusade. In the wake of his son’s abduction and subsequent murder, John Walsh became a relentless advocate for missing children. His advocacy led to the founding of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) in 1984—a groundbreaking organization that transformed the way law enforcement and society respond to child abductions and exploitation. Adam Walsh’s story is not only a tale of unspeakable loss but also a catalyst for change that continues to protect countless children to this day. Conclusion: A Legacy of Loss and Change Today, we have journeyed through three tragedies that forever altered the course of American history. From the lost innocence of Aundria Bowman, through the cold case of Kathleen Doyle, to the transformative legacy of Adam Walsh, each case reminds us that behind every headline lies a story of pain, resilience, and the unyielding pursuit of justice. These cases force us to confront uncomfortable truths about abuse, neglect, and the vulnerabilities of those we hold dear. They remind us that while the pursuit of justice can be long and arduous, perseverance and modern investigative techniques can eventually bring closure to even the most harrowing mysteries. Thank you for joining me on this deep dive into the shadows of America’s most tragic cases.

And if you or anyone you know needs help, remember that support is always available—whether through local resources or national organizations like the NCMEC.

Episode 93: Diving Into the Dark and Twisted with Doug Fifer"
01/13/2025
Episode 93: Diving Into the Dark and Twisted with Doug Fifer"
Introduction Doug Fifer is a recently retired Alaskan police officer who specialized in crime scene analysis, deviant sexual crimes, hostage negotiations, and various special assignments throughout his twenty-five-year career. He started in law enforcement with the Anchorage Police Department in 1996 and retired in 2021. As a highly decorated investigator, Doug has negotiated with serial killers, solved homicides, and worked real-life cases that will shock you to the core. Born in the small town of Homer, Alaska, Doug and his wife, Kim, raised their children in the Anchorage area. His family originates from southeast Alaska, mainly around the Ketchikan area. He is Tlingit Indian and heavily connected to his Alaska Native culture and heritage. Doug and Kim are also avid oenophiles who started a wine business in Anchorage in 2007. Alaskans have a passionate love for the outdoors, and the Fifer family is no exception. Fishing, hiking, snowboarding, and extreme sports top their list. Their family dog, Malbec, is considered one of the kids and snowboards a bit too. As the author of Fifty Shades of True Crime, Doug brings to life stories so bizarre, so intense, and so twisted that the reader will be left speechless. This is not your run-of-the-mill true crime; it's straight from the source, an author-led journey into how far some will go to achieve their sexually freakish desires. You’ve never read a book quite like this one; it’s a cringeworthy reality check on humanity. You might think you can handle the truth, but this cop’s truth is as savage as it gets. When asked about the stressors of being a cop, Doug replied, “Humor plays a key role in keeping your sanity, not just in law enforcement but life in general.” His writing certainly reflects this philosophy, as Doug believes in taking life seriously—just not too seriously. In this riveting episode, I sit down with retired Alaskan police officer and true crime author, Doug Fifer, to discuss his fascinating career and his new book, Fifty Shades of True Crime. With over 25 years of experience, Doug has faced the darkest and most bizarre cases imaginable—working with serial killers, solving homicides, and handling high-stakes hostage negotiations. Doug shares gripping stories from his time in law enforcement and reveals the inspiration behind his book, which dives into some of the most shocking and twisted crimes you’ll ever read about. Trust me, this book pulls no punches—right from page one, it’s intense, raw, and impossible to put down. We’ll explore how Doug’s time in Alaska shaped his career, his unique approach to storytelling, and the importance of humor when dealing with humanity’s darkest moments. Plus, we’ll hear how his love for the outdoors and his family kept him grounded through it all. Whether you’re a true crime junkie or simply curious about the human condition, this episode is packed with insights, stories, and surprises you won’t want to miss.

Episode 92- Hidden Scars: Emotional, Psychological, stalking, financial, and physical abuse
10/29/2024
Episode 92- Hidden Scars: Emotional, Psychological, stalking, financial, and physical abuse
Segment 1: Stories of Survival and Tragedy This episode focused on real-life stories of victims who have endured abusive relationships, sharing stories can be impactful while also being respectful to those involved. Here are three cases that highlight different aspects of abusive relationships. These are based on common patterns and anonymized for privacy, reflecting real experiences. Content Warning: Let listeners know upfront that these stories may be triggering and encourage self-care. To begin, let’s talk about some stories—stories of survival and tragedy. Abuse doesn’t discriminate; it affects people of every background, gender, and age. Each story serves as a reminder of the horrors some people endure and the resilience they show in surviving and sometimes escaping these situations. Recognizing the Signs Emotional Abuse and Isolation Psychological Abuse and Stalking Financial and Physical Abuse So, what are the warning signs to watch for? Abuse isn’t always physical. It often begins subtly, escalating over time, and can include emotional, verbal, psychological, financial, and sexual abuse. Here are some red flags to keep in mind: Isolation: If your partner tries to cut you off from friends, family, or activities you enjoy, this can be a major warning sign. Abusers often isolate their partners to gain control. Excessive Jealousy and Possessiveness: Jealousy may be normal in relationships to a degree, but extreme possessiveness and demands for constant updates on your location, who you’re with, and what you’re doing can indicate a deeper issue. Frequent Criticism and Verbal Abuse: Abuse can start with comments that undermine your confidence. Phrases like “You’re worthless” or “No one else will love you like I do” can chip away at self-worth over time. Controlling Behavior: Abusers often control finances, social activities, and personal decisions. They may check your phone, manage your money, or try to control every aspect of your life. Physical Abuse or Threats of Violence: This might seem obvious, but it can start small, like grabbing or pushing, before escalating. Even threats of violence, while not physical yet, are a form of abuse and should be taken seriously. Love-Bombing and Apologies: A common cycle is intense affection followed by an abusive episode and then a flood of apologies, gifts, and promises it won’t happen again. This can create confusion and make the victim feel responsible. Take Sarah, for instance. Sarah was 24 when she met someone she thought was the love of her life. But things changed. He started controlling her friendships, checking her phone, and later became verbally abusive. Eventually, this turned into physical violence. Sarah later shared that she often felt isolated, fearing she’d be judged or blamed. But one day, she found the courage to leave after connecting with a support group. Today, she speaks out to help others understand they’re not alone and that it’s possible to go. Surviving and escaping an abusive relationship is hard, but there are resources and people ready to help. Let’s talk about support systems. 1. Hotlines and Crisis Centers: There are national and local hotlines dedicated to helping people in abusive situations. The National Domestic Violence Hotline, for example, operates 24/7 and offers confidential support. Calling a hotline can connect you to local resources, emergency shelters, and counseling services. 2. Friends and Family Support: Opening up to trusted friends or family members can be difficult, but it’s often a critical step. They can provide support, a place to stay, or even accompany you to appointments if you need. 3. Counseling and Support Groups: Counseling—whether for the survivor or for friends and family—can be life-changing. Many counselors specialize in trauma and domestic abuse, and support groups can be a powerful reminder that no one has to go through this alone. 4. Legal Resources and Protection Orders: If physical abuse is involved, legal options such as protection orders can create a barrier of safety. Many organizations offer legal assistance to those who need it. Surviving abuse isn’t the end of the story—it’s a chance to rebuild, heal, and reclaim power. We want every listener to know that whether you’ve experienced abuse or know someone who has, hope and support are always available. Healing is a journey, and every survivor deserves a life of peace, dignity, and love. If you or someone you know is in an abusive relationship, please reach out. Remember, reaching out is not a sign of weakness, but of incredible strength. In our next episode, we’ll talk with a therapist who specializes in helping survivors rebuild their lives, so tune in next week for expert insights on healing and growth. 1.

Episode 91: “I Went from Surviving to Thriving Under God”
10/05/2024
Episode 91: “I Went from Surviving to Thriving Under God”
Welcome back to Murder, Blood, and Psychopath, where we dive deep into the dark corners of humanity. Today, we have a powerful episode that’s a bit different from our usual themes of crime and psychology. We’re focusing on resilience, survival, and empowerment, particularly in the face of domestic violence. That’s right. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about the impact of abuse and to empower those affected to find their voice and strength. We’re honored to have a special guest with us today—Eileen, who has an incredible story of survival. Eileen’s journey is not just about surviving; it’s about thriving under God and transforming pain into purpose. She’ll be sharing her personal experiences, but we also want to highlight some important statistics and information that can shed light on the broader issues at play. I’m grateful for the opportunity to share my story. Let’s start at the beginning. Can you tell us about your experiences and what made you feel like you needed to survive? Of course. Growing up in a household where domestic violence was prevalent shaped so much of my life. It was difficult, but I learned early on that my voice mattered, even if it felt small. I became a teen parent at a young age, which added layers of challenge. That’s incredibly brave of you to share. Statistics show that Latino teen parents often face significant barriers to higher education. Did you feel those pressures? Absolutely. Many of my friends who became parents young dropped out of school. It felt like there was a cycle of expectation that we wouldn’t achieve much. But I was determined to break that cycle, not just to survive but to thrive. That determination is inspiring, Eileen. For our listeners, it’s important to understand that statistics can be staggering. According to the National Domestic Violence Hotline, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience severe intimate partner physical violence. And the risk factors for teens can be higher, particularly for those in marginalized communities. And during Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we focus on prevention and education. Eileen, how did your faith play a role in your journey? My faith was my anchor. When I felt most vulnerable, I found strength in my relationship with God. It wasn’t easy, but I saw my worth and purpose through prayer and community support. I wanted to empower others, especially those in similar situations. That’s a powerful testament to the healing power of faith. You mentioned community support—how important was that for you? It was everything. Finding groups that understood what I was going through helped me feel less alone. I started volunteering, sharing my story, and listening to others. It created a ripple effect of empowerment. Speaking of empowerment, we want our listeners to know about resources available for those experiencing domestic violence. Organizations like the National Domestic Violence Hotline provide confidential support and information. And for teens and young adults, there are educational programs designed to break the cycle of violence and promote healthy relationships. Yes, education is key. It’s vital for young parents to know that there are options, scholarships, and support systems available to help them pursue higher education. Eileen, what advice would you give to someone currently experiencing domestic violence or feeling trapped?Don’t lose hope. Reach out for help, whether it’s a trusted friend, family member, or a professional. You deserve to be safe and to thrive. It’s possible to rewrite your story. That’s a beautiful message, Eileen. Thank you for being so open and vulnerable with us today. Before we wrap up, we want to remind our listeners that October is about awareness and action. If you or someone you know is in danger, please reach out for help. There’s strength in seeking support. Thank you, Eileen, for sharing your journey. Your story is a beacon of hope for many. Thank you for allowing me to share. I believe together, we can make a difference. And thank you to our listeners for tuning in. Remember to take care of yourselves and each other. Until next time, stay safe and stay aware.

Impact on Victims Mental Health: Victims often suffer from anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental health issues. Physical Health: Abuse can lead to physical injuries, chronic health problems, and sometimes, long-term disabilities. Economic Impact: Abusive relationships can severely impact financial stability due to limitations on employment, financial control by the abuser, and legal costs. 6. Barriers to Leaving Fear: Victims may fear retaliation from the abuser or worry about their safety or the safety of their children.

The Role of Society Supportive Communities: Building a supportive environment that does not tolerate abuse and encourages victims to seek help can make a significant difference. Legislation and Advocacy: Advocating for stronger laws and support systems for victims of abuse is crucial for addressing and preventing domestic violence.

Top of Form Bottom of Form Welcome back to [Murder, Blood, and Psychopaths]. I’m Your host [Eileen], and today’s episode will delve into a fascinating and alarming topic: dating a psychopath. Specifically, we will explore the story of Evie and Ramon, who met through mutual friends and are currently in what seems to be a blissful honeymoon phase. But underneath that charming exterior, Ramon has a dark side. Trigger Warning: This episode discusses psychological manipulation and toxic relationships. If these topics are too upsetting for you, please take care of yourself and feel free to skip this episode. Segment 1: The Honeymoon Phase Let’s start with Evie and Ramon’s story. They met through mutual friends, and their connection seemed instant and electric. During the honeymoon phase, everything feels perfect. Ramon appears charming, attentive, and seemingly ideal. This is often the phase where a psychopath’s manipulative traits are less apparent, overshadowed by their ability to charm and impress. Psychopaths are skilled at presenting a facade that masks their true nature. They often know exactly what to say and how to behave to win someone over quickly. For Evie, it might feel like she’s found her perfect match. But this early phase is also where caution is crucial. Segment 2: Recognizing Psychopathic Traits So, how can Evie recognize if Ramon is a psychopath? Here are some traits that might indicate something is off: Superficial Charm: Psychopaths are often very charming and persuasive. They can make a strong first impression, but this charm is usually superficial. Lack of Empathy: Psychopaths struggle to connect with others on an emotional level. They might seem detached or indifferent to your feelings and needs. Manipulative Behavior: They use manipulation to control or deceive. This can range from minor lies to more significant deceit. Grandiose Sense of Self: They often have an inflated sense of their own importance and abilities. They might brag excessively or belittle others. Impulsivity and Unpredictability: Psychopaths can be unpredictable and impulsive. Their behavior might shift suddenly, leaving you feeling confused or on edge. Segment 3: The Dark Side of Psychopathy Understanding the dark side of psychopathy is crucial. While Ramon might currently seem perfect, here are some aspects of psychopathy that could impact Evie’s life: Emotional Manipulation: Psychopaths are adept at manipulating emotions. They might use flattery, guilt, or emotional blackmail to get what they want. Lack of Long-Term Planning: They might not think about the future like you do. Immediate gratification rather than long-term consequences often drives their actions. Potential for Exploitation: Psychopaths may exploit their partners for personal gain, whether that’s financial, emotional, or otherwise. Dangerous Behavior: In extreme cases, psychopathy can manifest in more dangerous behaviors, including aggression or violence. Segment 4: Protecting Yourself So, what should Evie do if she suspects that Ramon has psychopathic traits? Here are some steps to protect herself: Trust Your Instincts: If something feels off, don’t ignore your gut feelings. Listen to your intuition. Seek Support: Talk to friends, family, or a mental health professional about your concerns. They can offer perspective and advice. Set Boundaries: Establish clear boundaries and be firm about your needs and expectations in the relationship. Educate Yourself: Learning more about psychopathy and manipulative behaviors can help you recognize warning signs early. Consider Professional Help: If you’re in a relationship with a psychopath, seeking guidance from a therapist or counselor can provide support and strategies for dealing with the situation. Closing Thoughts To wrap up, dating a psychopath can be incredibly challenging and dangerous. While the honeymoon phase might be filled with excitement, knowing the underlying traits could indicate a darker side is crucial.

Bio: Aiden Gabor was still a teenager when Department of Justice agents approached him with an ultimatum: spend his life in prison for racketeering, embezzlement, extortion, and conspiracy to commit murder, or become an undercover agent. Conflicting Loyalties is a sharp, honest memoir in three parts: the bloody life of a mob soldier from outside la famiglia; the death-defying, paranoid existence of an informant bringing down corrupt politicians and police departments from the inside; and unexpectedly finding peace late in life through the Baha’i faith while coping with an ALS diagnosis. Conflicting Loyalties is a visceral tale of a man who gambles with his own life to save it, dodging his fate while searching for an identity, a father, and a family. It is for readers of Gianni Russo’s Hollywood Godfather, Joe Pistone’s classic Donnie Brasco, and anyone interested in mob life, police and political corruption, and finding peace after a life of violence. Aiden Gabor is a former associate of a well-known crime family. He worked undercover for more than a decade as a confidential informant for the Department of Justice, serving as a police officer in undisclosed locations.
