#244 Murder By Mushrooms

from True Crime Guys · host True Crime Guys

On Friday, April 24, 2020 a passerby called 911 to report a dead body laying in a ditch by the side of the road near Noblesville, Indiana. There were no signs of trauma, no identification, no abandoned vehicles, no witnesses, and toxicology reports weren’t much help either... Until they decided to test the stomach contents of David Fouts, that they had a possible cause of death, apparently he'd last eaten bits of poisonous mushrooms. The fungus eventually led to the arrest of David Fouts’ wife, Katrina, and his father-in-law’s caretaker, Terry Hopkins. “The weirdest thing about this case is the mushrooms,” Lockhart said. “The murder was almost perfect. But there’s certain things you can’t get away from. They over thought it. They did stupid stuff in the end.”   This episode brought to you by SongFinch songfinch.com/creeper   True Crime Guys YouTube   EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS:   https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions   True Crime Guys Music: True Crime Guys Music on Spotify   OhMyGaia.com Code: Creeper       Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Patreon.com/sandupodcast Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Explicit Chinook Realm Religion and crime collide when a gruesome murder rocks the isolated community of Chinook, Montana. Local Deputy Ruth Vogel thought she was answering a routine animal control call, only to find a mangled corpse on the frozen embankment. Her small town is whipped into a frenzy and everyone is quick to point their fingers at a drug-addicted teenager, but Ruth suspects connections to a powerful religious group. Enter Agent Loro, an enigmatic FBI investigator tracking an evangelical cult that may have roots right here in Chinook.
