Johnny Cashman // 252
from Going West: True Crime · host Dark West Productions
In April of 2022, a 38-year-old man died in his apartment due to an apparent medical condition. Without seeing the scene of his death, his parents had him cremated, fully believing the ruling. But later, when his ex-girlfriend entered the apartment to a horrific, bloody mess, his friends and family began to doubt his cause of death. And after seeing damning security footage and audio from his neighbor, they knew: he had been murdered. This is the story of Johnny Cashman.BONUS EPISODESpatreon.com/goingwestpodcastCASE SOURCES1.
