About This Episode
What is this episode about?
The episode "True Crime Time For November 13, 2026 | Cari Farver Digital Murder, Baby Buried Alive, Louisiana Car Scam & Amanda Brown Death Row Case" from Real Life Real Crime covers a series of cases presented as a Friday the 13th edition, including a murder solved through digital forensics, a Louisiana dealership impersonation scam, crimes against vulnerable adults and children, and the decades-long fight for justice in the murder of seven-year-old Amanda Brown.
The episode opens with This Day in History, revisiting the Amityville murders, the 2015 Paris terrorist attacks, and the disappearance of Cari Farver. The Cari Farver Digital Murder case is examined in depth, detailing how investigators uncovered years of impersonation, threatening messages, fabricated evidence, and digital deception to secure a conviction without ever recovering her body. A fraudulent website impersonating a father-and-son used car dealership in Donaldsonville, Louisiana, is also detailed, along with a care worker's exploitation of elderly dementia patients in England, children found unsecured in a U-Haul van near drugs in Florida, an infant rescued from a buried dog crate in South Carolina, a mother accused of abusing her sons in a Hialeah grocery store, and an Arizona murder allegedly tied to the victim's status as a registered sex offender.
The episode closes with the Amanda Brown Death Row case, covering the 1998 disappearance of the seven-year-old in Tampa, Florida, the blood and DNA evidence used to convict Willie Crain despite her body never being recovered, and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's signed warrant scheduling Crain's execution for December 10, 2026.
