MURDERED: Tristyn Bailey

from Cardinal Crimes · host Cardinal Crimes

In this episode, we discuss the tragic murder of 13-year-old Tristyn Bailey by 14-year-old Aiden Fucci. I wanted to cover this case after watching the Netflix series Adolescence, a four-part series that dives into the epidemic of violence against women and girls, the radicalization of young men, and tries to answer the question “Why?”. In this episode, we attempt to answer that same question. We talk about the investigation into the murder of Tristyn Bailey, review police reports from that investigation, and discuss psychologist findings on Aiden Fucci’s mental state. Over the next few weeks, we will dive into similar cases to start more conversations on why young men turn to violence. SOURCES: https://www.firstcoastnews.com/article/news/crime/psychologist-aiden-fucci-trial-sentencing-tristyn-bailey-st-johns-county/77-07c67e99-5630-4f06-a71b-99e44484a567First Coast News, Moment Aiden Fucci learns he will spend the rest of life in prison for murder of Tristyn Bailey, March 24, 2023, https://youtu.be/kHVeJyB9iho?si=65hI_qJ_1igyW6Op Hannon, Kurt, Incident Report Narrative, 6/21/2021, St John’s Sheriff’s OfficeEmily Zemler, With ‘Adolescence,’ Stephen Graham wants you to consider the unthinkable, 3/24/25, Los Angeles Times KeywordsAdolescence, Netflix, Tristyn Bailey, Aiden Fucci, crime, investigation, mental health, youth violence, psychological insights, prevention, societal issuesSupport 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
