123 Wounds & A Cold 911 Call: The Matthew Phelps Case

from DEADLY TRUTHS · host SS Podcast

At 1:10 AM on September 1, 2017, a eerie 911 call echoed through Raleigh, North Carolina. Matthew Phelps, a 28-year-old aspiring pastor, calmly claimed he woke up from a dream covered in blood next to his lifeless wife, Lauren, blaming an overdose of over-the-counter cough medicine. But as investigators peeled back the layers of their short-lived marriage, they uncovered a dark matrix of secret addictions, drained savings, a creepy social media obsession with American Psycho, and 123 brutal stab wounds that exposed a calculating killer in plain sight. Step inside the courtroom battle that dismantled a bizarre medical defense and brought justice to a vibrant young woman whose light refused to be extinguished.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/deadly-truths--6551875/support.This episode includes AI-generated content.
