Triggered - The True Crime Podcast

She was 14 years old. He was a rising pop star. And when she threatened to go public about their relationship, prosecutors say he made sure she never got the chance.
In September 2025, a tow yard worker called police about a smell coming from an abandoned Tesla in Hollywood. Inside the trunk: the remains of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. She'd been missing for over a year. The man whose car it was, singer D4vd, was on stage at a concert the next day.

We're breaking down the case, the charges, and the deeply disturbing timeline prosecutors are about to lay out in court. First degree murder. Special circumstances. And a level of premeditation that is hard to sit with.

Her name was Celeste. And she deserved better.

On February 12, 1993, two-year-old James Bulger was taken from his mother's hand in a Liverpool shopping centre. What followed was one of the most disturbing and heartbreaking cases in British criminal history. In Aisle 36 of the Bootle Strand, James was led away by two ten-year-old boys. What they did next shocked the world.

In Episode 155, Chantal and Ashley walk through the abduction, the murder, and the trial that forced an entire country to ask questions it still hasn't fully answered. How do children become capable of this? And what do we owe the victims when the killers are children themselves?

This one is heavy. You've been warned.

In 1976, the residents of Circleville, Ohio started receiving anonymous letters and whoever was writing them knew everyone's secrets. Affairs, corruption, personal threats. The campaign escalated for nearly two decades, culminating in a booby-trapped gun on a bus driver's route, a conviction that left more questions than answers, and letters that kept arriving even after the supposed writer was locked up in isolation. The identity of the Circleville Letter Writer has never been confirmed.

Dylan Redwine was 13 years old. He didn't want to go. But it was court-ordered, so on November 18, 2012, he flew to Durango, Colorado to spend Thanksgiving with his father.

He never came home.

In this episode, we're diving into three cases where the lines between this world and whatever comes next got very, very blurry. A grieving stepmother whose nightmares led investigators straight to a body hidden in a barn. A murdered woman who came back, through someone else's voice, to name her own killer. And a father standing next to a chilling and ironic tv commercial, caught on camera in a moment so strange it still doesn't have a good explanation.

Shanann Watts. Teresita Basa. Maria Marten.

Three cases. Three moments where something felt like it reached back from the other side. Whether you believe or you don't, these stories are going to stay with you.
