Murder Follows Me

from DRAMA MAMA Hosted by BENOFTHEWEEK

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode deals with murder and suicide. This week, Ben talks about some very serious crimes that happened in his home town very near to him. The first story is about his elderly neighbors, ones he had known pretty well, who were discovered dead in their home late one night, and was rumored to be a suicide pact. The second story is about Ben walking past a murder-suicide on his way to school, but only finding out the very tragic details later. Plus, Ben went on the same route of the infamous Greyhouse Bus murder, which is when a man was randomly murdered and cannibalized on a morning bus route. If you or someone you know is suffering from depression or is in crisis, visit The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline or call 1-800-273-8255.

Here are some key things to know about it:Main Features: Focus: The show followed the cases of Sergeant Joe Friday and his partners, primarily in the Los Angeles Police Department. It depicted the real-life work of detectives, including the tedious investigation process, interviews, stakeouts, and occasional danger. Realism: Jack Webb, the show's creator and star, aimed for authenticity. Episodes were often based on real cases, with details changed to protect the innocent. The dialogue was direct and unvarnished, mimicking the way police officers actually spoke. Famous Intro: The show's opening sequence is iconic: the announcer's voice declaring "This is the city... Los Angeles... California..." followed by the signature "dun-dun-DUN" theme music.
