Episode 157 - Cropsey & James Scott: Saboteur or Scapegoat?

In this episode, Amber covers the story of Cropsey. Cropsey started as an urban legend on Staten Island in the 80’s about who would come out late at night and snatch children off the streets. But when children in the area started to go missing, locals began to question if this was really a myth. Then, Naomi covers the story of a man who took the blame for the flooding of an entire town during the Great Flood of 1993.This week, Amber was drinking Chateau Ste Michelle Pinot Gris Amber pulled her sources from:What Happened To AndreRand, The Suspect In Ethel Atwell's Case?“Cropsey” & The CrimesOf Andre Rand – The Hawthorn FilesThe Haunting Story Of Andre Rand, The 'Cropsey' KillerWho Terrorized Staten IslandAndre Rand - WikipediaWillowbrook State School -WikipediaCropsey – 2009 DocumentaryNaomi pulled her sources from:Causing a Natural Disaster to Party: The Case of JamesScott | OverlookedCriminal Ep 74 - Transcripthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Scott_(criminal)https://medium.com/the-man-who-flooded-a-town-for-sexhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Flood_of_1993  Support the showGo check out our patreon page athttps://www.patreon.com/crimewineandchaosFor more information about Crime, Wine & Chaos, or to simply reach out and say "hi,"https://www.crimewineandchaos.comCrime, Wine & Chaos is produced by 8th Direction Records.
