About This Episode
What is this episode about?
The episode "The Murder of Sydney Loofe: Aubrey Trial and Bailey Boswell | #472" from RedHanded covers the murder trial of Aubrey Trail, who cursed the courtroom and slashed his own throat with a contraband shiv, turning his and Bailey Boswell's trial into what is described as a complete circus. Their relationship, full of kinks, vampires and witches, had already made headlines before the trial even began.
Six months before the courtroom chaos, Boswell and Trail murdered 24-year-old Sydney Loofe, before dismembering her and draining her body entirely of its blood. According to Bailey Boswell, her partner in crime Trail believed himself to be an ageless vampire who controlled a coven of witches. Killing Loofe and "breathing in her last breath" was presented as the act needed for Boswell to become the sacred 13th witch, after which she believed she would be granted the magical ability to turn into a cat.
