About This Episode
What is this episode about?
The episode "Colton Harris-Moore: The Barefoot Bandit (AKA AyleSteelya Earhart)" from Morbid covers the early life and escalating criminal career of Colton Harris-Moore. When Colton Harris-Moore was just ten years old, a series of unfortunate events upended his world, and within a few months his behavior changed dramatically — he grew destructive and defiant. That shift marked the beginning of what would eventually become a criminal career of epic proportions, laying the foundation for the story the hosts unpack across the episode.
The episode focuses on the formative circumstances that shaped Colton Harris-Moore as a child, tracing how specific events in his young life set him on a destructive path. Rather than starting with the headline-grabbing exploits he would later become known for, the hosts work backward to the roots of his behavior, examining the turning point at age ten as the moment everything changed.
