• The Fall That Wasn't: The Murder of Susann Sills

  On the morning of November 13, 2016, fertility doctor Dr. Eric Scott Sills called 911 from his San Clemente home, claiming he had found his wife, Susann Sills, unresponsive at the bottom of the stairs. He said she’d fallen. But the scene told a far more chilling story.In this episode of Serial Napper, I dig into the suspicious death of 45-year-old Susann Sills—an ambitious, witty, and driven woman who helped build a successful fertility clinic alongside her husband. While her death was initially believed to be an accident, forensic evidence, troubling text messages, and a twisted courtroom theory involving the family dogs told a very different tale.Nearly two and a half years after Susann’s death, Dr. Sills was arrested and charged with her murder. This case would unfold over years, full of bizarre claims, devastating testimony from their children, and one of the most unusual defences we’ve ever heard in a true crime trial.Sources:https://www.cbsnews.com/news/susann-sills-dr-eric-scott-sills-san-clemente-california-death-investigation-topless-photo-48-hours/https://www.cbsnews.com/news/dr-eric-scott-sills-susann-sills-california-accidental-fall-murder-trial-48-hours/https://ktla.com/news/local-news/orange-county-doctor-sentenced-for-murdering-wife-in-staged-accident/https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-12-19/o-c-fertility-doctor-eric-scott-sills-convicted-of-murdering-his-wife https://www.the-sun.com/news/11269662/eric-scott-sills-case-where-now/https://www.lesneskimortuary.com/obituaries/SUSANN-STEPHANIE-SILLS?obId=4300682Follow me here:► YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@SerialNapper/► Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/serialnappernik/► Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/SerialNapper/► TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@serialnappernik *Go Ad-Free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SerialNapper *I will be in London at CrimeCon UK and I would love to meet you!

• The Fake Cancer and Fatal Betrayal of Kacee Terry

  When 38-year-old Kacee Lyn Terry was found unresponsive in her Utah bedroom in August 2024, everyone believed her years-long battle with cancer had finally come to an end. But what unfolded next would shock her family, friends, and the entire community.In this episode of Serial Napper, we’re diving into the twisted case of Kacee Terry and Meggan Randall Sundwall — a licensed nurse and former friend who now stands accused of aggravated murder. Investigators say Meggan not only convinced Kacee that she was terminally ill, but also orchestrated a slow, calculated plan to end her life — with a $1.5 million life insurance payout at the center of it all.We’ll unpack the chilling evidence, including more than 28,000 text messages exchanged between the two women, deleted phone data, and the use of insulin on a woman who was not diabetic. We’ll also break down the legal implications around assisted suicide and Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) laws in both Utah and Canada, and what obligations nurses have when it comes to end-of-life care.Was this a mercy killing, a manipulative con, or something even darker?Warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics including medical deception, suicide, and end-of-life care.

• The Disappearance of Nicola Bulley: When True Crime Turns Toxic

  Let’s go down the rabbit hole of another baffling and heartbreaking case — one that had an entire country glued to their phones, refreshing for updates, and questioning what they thought they knew about missing persons.This time, we’re heading to the quiet, idyllic village of St Michael’s on Wyre in Lancashire, a place that sounds like it belongs in a cozy countryside novel, not the center of a global media firestorm. But that’s exactly what happened when Nicola Bulley, a 45-year-old mom of two and mortgage adviser, vanished without a trace while walking her dog on the morning of January 27, 2023.Her phone was still connected to a Teams work call. Her dog was found loose but unharmed. And Nicola? Completely gone.While police leaned toward the theory that she’d fallen into the river, others weren’t so sure. Abduction theories exploded, internet sleuths packed their ring lights and headed to Lancashire, and suddenly Nicola’s deeply personal information was being broadcast for the world to scrutinize — all while her devastated family tried to make sense of their new reality.Sources:https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-67486896https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/nicola-bulley-full-story-everything-26179516https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/death-of-nicola-bulley-what-happened-b2450880.htmlhttps://www.lep.co.uk/news/people/im-the-psychic-who-found-nicola-bulleys-body-and-comforted-her-family-after-funeral-4813904 https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/jun/27/nicola-bulley-was-in-amazing-spirits-before-disappearance-inquest-toldFollow me here:► YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@SerialNapper/► Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/serialnappernik/► Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/SerialNapper/► TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@serialnappernik *Go Ad-Free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SerialNapper *I will be in London at CrimeCon UK and I would love to meet you!

• Vanished: The Tina Satchwell Case and the Secret Hidden Beneath the Stairs

  Tonight’s case is one that rattled a small seaside town in Ireland — and left the entire country asking: how can someone vanish without a trace… in their own home?The last time anyone outside of her household saw Tina Satchwell alive was on March 19, 2017. She and her husband, Richard, were browsing through bargains at a local car boot sale. By all accounts, it was just a regular Sunday. No drama. No suspicious behaviour. Nothing that would suggest that just one day later, Tina would be gone.According to Richard, Tina asked him to make a trip to Aldi the following morning, March 20. He left their home in Youghal around 10 a.m., grabbed a few things from the store, and got back at 2 p.m. But when he walked through the door, Tina wasn’t there. Her keys were on the floor. Her phone was on the table. Her beloved dogs were still inside the house, alone. But she… was gone.It wasn’t until four days later that Richard contacted Tina’s family — and then the Gardaí — to report her missing. He claimed she’d taken off with two suitcases, a stash of cash totalling around €26,000, and seemingly no plan to come back.That’s when the mystery deepened. Despite extensive investigations, forensic searches, and even international tips, every lead led to a dead end. Tina Satchwell had vanished — and no one could figure out how or why.But just when everyone began to believe this case might remain unsolved forever… a shocking discovery turned everything upside down.Sources:https://www.irishexaminer.com/news/spotlight/arid-41639983.htmlhttps://www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/2023/10/13/tina-satchwell-case-a-timeline-of-the-investigation-into-her-disappearance/ https://extra.ie/2019/01/05/news/real-life/tina-satchwell-richard-satchwell-missing-corkhttps://www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish-news/killer-satchwell-murdered-wife-tina-35316575https://uk.news.yahoo.com/tina-satchwell-lovely-girl-whose-122613561.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAADFT6Qni2katPdaXiZ1xxMS4d4R8joN6u_NBPQIyfJ2s5tzwMGSYrTVx2l8EVE4xWX6MOhJt6XZdw4b4ydL2WMuvZUdyyTL3vZvuagovm_h1EYg44KaBCusTOSH4OtVTqqKzCtEk9A6-uc4r-rlAnHboe0RyIhuT-8pxEHblNkUhhttps://www.thejournal.ie/the-body-under-the-stairs-inside-the-garda-operation-to-catch-the-killer-of-tina-satchwell-6717059-May2025/Follow me here:► YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@SerialNapper/► Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/serialnappernik/► Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/SerialNapper/► TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@serialnappernik *Go Ad-Free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SerialNapper *I will be in London at CrimeCon UK and I would love to meet you!
