What is this episode about?
The episode "True Crime Time For October 19, 2026 | A School Shooting, a Grisly New Orleans Murder & Seven Missing Women" from Real Life Real Crime covers the 2006 killing of Addie Hall by her boyfriend, Iraq War veteran Zachary Bowen, alongside a reported Oregon elementary school shooting and an ongoing Philadelphia investigation into seven missing women.
The New Orleans segment, part of the recurring True Crime Time For series, revisits a Grisly New Orleans Murder that unfolded in the French Quarter in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, where Hall and Bowen's increasingly troubled relationship ended in tragedy. Woody Overton examines the horrifying discovery inside their apartment, Bowen's confession and his eventual suicide, along with the lasting public fascination the case has generated.
The episode also turns to a devastating elementary school shooting reported in Oregon, where three children and an adult were killed before an armed bystander reportedly stopped the teenage gunman. A Texas sentencing decision is discussed as well, concerning the drunk-driving death of 19-year-old Honor Wallace, whose convicted killer was ordered to return to jail annually during probation.
The hour closes with an update on the Philadelphia investigation into seven missing women, as police and FBI investigators continue searching a property for evidence. Woody Overton also revisits the Mississippi Burning civil rights murders and the Zebra killings, framing both within a broader discussion of accountability in criminal investigations.
