MURDERED: Nohema Graber

On November 2nd, 2021, two 16-year-old boys beat their 66-year-old Spanish teacher, Nohema Graber, to death. The reasoning? They were getting bad grades in her class. The murder of Nohema Graber stunned the community of Fairfield, Iowa, and the nation. In this episode we discuss the timeline of events, how the two teens stalked and meticulously planned their crimes, and discuss what transpired at their sentencing hearings. How could two teenage boys do something so depraved? This is the last episode looking at young men who turn to violence, a quick series I wanted to do after watching the Netflix series “Adolescence”. There are so many conversations that need to be had on this topic, and I hope to hear more people having them. SOURCEShttps://www.kcci.com/article/iowa-court-documents-reveal-timeline-of-killing-of-fairfield-spanish-teacher-willard-miller-jeremy-goodale/39517350https://www.kcci.com/article/nohema-graber-memorial-service-spanish-teacher-fairfield/38205043https://cbs2iowa.com/news/local/fairfield-teens-accused-of-murder-in-court-tuesday-asking-for-lowered-bondshttps://abc3340.com/news/nation-world/iowa-teenagers-willard-miller-jeremy-goodale-kill-spanish-teacher-nohema-graber-over-bad-grade-prosecutor-fairfield-high-school-murder-charges-court-documents-phone-computer-snapchat-body-chatauqua-parkhttps://www.iowacourts.gov/courtcases/21483/embed/SupremeCourtOpinionhttps://www.behnerfh.com/obituaries/nohemacastilloycastillo-graberhttps://www.kcrg.com/2025/01/28/court-upholds-sentence-fairfield-teen-convicted-murdering-spanish-teacher-2021/https://www.iowacourts.gov/courtcases/22353/embed/CourtAppealsOpinionhttps://www.kktv.com/2022/05/11/teen-accused-killing-spanish-high-school-teacher-be-tried-adult-judge-ruling/https://lawandcrime.com/crime/teenager-who-helped-beat-spanish-teacher-to-death-over-co-defendants-failing-grade-is-sentenced/ https://www.kcci.com/article/iowa-10-victim-impact-statements-shared-during-willard-millers-sentencing-hearing-nohema-graber/44468667 Clips from sentencing from “The Gazette” YouTube channelSupport the showIf you have any information on any of the cold cases covered, you can submit a tip here: https://www.iowaattorneygeneral.gov/for-crime-victims/iowa-cold-case/cold-case-tip-formIf you liked the show and are interested in supporting my work, check out my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/CardinalCrimes?utm_campaign=creatorshare_creatorSave $20 on a Buzzsprout paid plan using this referral link!: https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=2372693Theme Song: Shrouded Lament by james.lfo, William Claeson
