Dark Dialogue Distilled: The Woman Who Cleaned a Murder — The Kelsey Berreth Case Through Krystal Lee’s Eyes

On Thanksgiving 2018, Colorado mother Kelsey Berreth vanished without a trace. Her fiancé, Patrick Frazee, was later convicted of beating her to death and burning her remains. But this Distilled episode isn’t just about the murder — it’s about the woman who helped him cover it up. This is the story of Krystal Lee Kenney. A rodeo queen. A nurse. A mother. And the only witness who knew every step of Frazee’s plan. In this episode, we break down: The three failed “murder assignments” Frazee gave her The psychological grooming that kept her under his control The four-hour crime scene cleanup she performed alone The burning of Kelsey's remains that she stood by and watched Her deeply controversial plea deal and early release Why prosecutors called it “a deal with the devil” How her testimony secured Frazee’s life sentence The moral question: coerced… or complicit? You’ll hear a long-form tribute to Kelsey — not as a victim, but as a mother, daughter, pilot, and woman who deserved a lifetime of moments she never got to live.
