Since this is a bonus episode, we did something a little different than usual. Instead of diving into the inspiration behind a movie, book, etc. we talk about the brutal murders of two beautiful women. One of the women, Margarette Eby, was a music professor who started a city-wide music festival so she technically created a laswithtistic legacy. The other woman, Nancy Ludwig, was a diligent flight attendant who had a full family life. Both of their murders had gone cold, but the hard work of their families helped crack the case.Hinterman, Peter. “Flint Crime Files: The Murder of Margarette EbyDeath in the Gatehouse.” My City Magazine, 1 May 2023, www.mycitymag.com/flint-crime-files-the-murder-of-margarette-ebydeath-in-the-gatehouse/.

In this episode, we discuss the horrific murder of a devoted father down on his luck. Gregory Biggs was walking near the road when Chante Mallard was driving while intoxicated. Chante hit Gregory, and instead of getting him medical attention, she made a series of terrible decisions that ultimately led to his death. This event has inspired many TV shows and movies, but we mainly focus on the movie Stuck.
