Hog Farms, Affairs, and a 4-Tine Corn Rake: The Murder of Amy Mullis

from Hot Mess Murder Club · host Hot Mess Murder Club

Welcome to another hour-long descent into madness here at the Hot Mess Murder Club (hmmc). This week, we are diving deep into the absolute circus that is the 2018 murder of Amy Mullis. Get ready for a chronological, factual, and completely chaotic ride through rural Iowa—where the hogs are loud, the marriages are messy, and the farm tools are unexpectedly lethal.We’re taking you back to the beginning. Meet Amy Mullis: a mother of three who felt like a hostage on her husband's multi-million-dollar Earlville hog farm, complete with an "approved friends list" and strict curfews. Meet Todd Mullis: her husband, who loved his pigs, loved his acreage, and absolutely loved Googling human anatomy and "killing women" on the family iPad. You know, just standard "hunter safety" research. Sure, Jan.When Amy decides she's finally had enough of the controlling farm-life prison and sparks up a scandalous affair with the farm manager, Todd’s empire is suddenly threatened by a very expensive divorce. So, what happens next? On a brisk November day, Amy is mysteriously found face-down in the red shed with a heavy-duty corn rake sticking out of her back.Todd’s brilliant, airtight explanation to the police? "She must have tripped!" The medical examiner's response? "Explain how a four-tine rake makes SIX puncture wounds, Todd." Math is hard, but covering up a murder in a barn is apparently harder. Join us for a highly detailed, completely unhinged breakdown of the timeline. We are covering it all: the sheer audacity of Todd's lies, the wild autopsy findings, and the infamous 911 tape where Todd allegedly whispered "cheating wh*re" under his breath while supposedly performing CPR.Grab your iced coffee, lock up your gardening tools, and let's get into the dark, sarcastic, and twisted details of a man who thought he could outsmart the justice system with a pitchfork's ugly cousin.🎧 Listen now on all platforms! If you love true crime deep dives, solved case timelines, crazy trial moments, and sarcastic storytelling, this full-length true crime podcast episode is for you.
