People are the Worst

On October 2, 2023 Kristil Krug received a text from an ex-boyfriend she hadn't seen in over 20 years. Being married with 3 kids, she didn't engage in conversation but this blast from the past would soon turn into weeks of relentless stalking. She documented everything, kept police up to date and took all the appropriate steps to protect herself, yet it wasn't enough. When cops start looking into this guy, they find a very dark and twisted secret they didn't see coming Sponsor Links / Promo Codes ⁠⁠⁠AquaTru⁠⁠⁠: Use code WORST for 20% off Better Help: Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BetterHelp.com/peoplearetheworst⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to get 10% off your first month Cozy Earth: use discount code PATW Factor Meals: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠factormeals.com/worst50off⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ use code worst50 to get 50% off your first box plus 20% off your next month Force Factor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit ⁠⁠forcefactor.com/pages/PEOPLE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Happy Mammoth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: Use code THEWORST for 15% off your first order HoneyLove: visit honeylove.com/theworst for 20% off Lumi⁠: Use code WORST for 30% off ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mood⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: Use code THEWORST for 20% off your first order.

In 1977, the small town of Jacksonville, Alabama was shaken when a young couple, Donna Tucker & Mark Martin were attacked by a gunman in Germania Springs Park. This was a huge escalation to a series of similar crimes on young people in this town. There were no suspects until a local named John Ellis Sparks gave ABI agents plenty of reasons to suspect him. Unfortunately, they realize it's not that cut and dry when the crimes continue to happen after his arrest. This is a twisty tale... I almost got through it without crying.

Halloween was Rebekah Gays favorite holiday and she was especially excited in 2012 because it meant taking her 3-year-old trick or treating for the very first time. Sadly her favorite day of the year would be the very day she’s brutally (and I mean brutally) murdered. When she didn’t show up for work that morning, friends & family jumped into action, having no idea the killer was among them. The investigation reveals a real piece of sh*t, leading to dark secrets and a motive more horrifying than anyone could have imagined.

Valerie McDaniel was a successful veterinarian living in Houston, Texas, when she met a man named Leon Jacob. Leon was a young surgeon from the area, and the two quickly became inseparable. But a few years later, a 3 a.m. knock at the door shattered the life Valerie thought she knew—and what unravels is a bizarre plan that nobody would get away with, especially a buffoon.

Juliana Peres Magalhães was working as an Au Pair for Christine and Brendan Banfield, who lived in the suburbs of Washington, DC. In February 2023, she was taking their 4-year-old daughter to the National Zoo when she realized she forgot their pre-packed lunches in the fridge. When she pulled back up to the house she saw a strange man walking inside with a bag. What started as a typical workday turned into pure chaos -- leaving 2 people dead. What begins as a frantic 911 call soon unravels into a web of secrets, hidden relationships, and a story far more complex than it first appears.

** ORIGINALLY RELEASED AS A SUBSCRIBER-ONLY EPISODE IN MARCH 2025 . At the time we covered it, Lauryn did not want her name to be public, so we use the pseudonym Hailey. ** We covered the case of Kendra & Lauryn Licari for a bonus episode on March 24, 2025. With the new release the Netflix documentary, "Unknown Number", we've decided to re-release for all to hear. In 2020, 14 year old Lauryn Licari started getting harassing text messages from an anonymous bully. This lasted over a year and finally the parents got police involved. What they discover is shocking and repulsive.

In June 1998, Anita Wooldridge was getting ready for a lunch date when she hears a knock on the door. She opens it to see an unexpecting but familiar face. Even in a rush, Anita is nice enough to invite him in and offer him water, but when she turns her back, he tazed her. She attempts to fight but he uses the stun gun twice more and she is left helpless at the hands of this monster. The terror that unfolds afterwards is horrifying (and infuriating), but investigators will not rest until they find out what happened to Anita and who is responsible.

In May 2017, coal miner, Brad McGarry, spent the morning at a family brunch and left feeling excited to meet up with his secret lover.
