The Misery Machine
by The Misery Machine
There’s a problem with True Crime.Creators idolize perpetrators, shame victims, or are completely checked out on cases while they focus on other things. However, we can’t forget there are victims who lost their lives and families who are still grieving to this day. Furthermore, many True Crime outlets spend their time focusing on themselves or rambling, instead of getting right to the facts of the case. We hear you, this is frustrating.The Misery Machine focuses on cases the media fails to give proper attention to. We want to help give those a voice that never got to have one, to begin with. We also cover aspects of cases that other podcasts might look the other way on, and the way that these cases impact their communities for generations. It’s not enough to simply cover a case, our platform must be used to make a difference.

The Tragic Case of Kumanjayi Little Baby
🌳🦘Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be warned that this episode refers to the sensitive issue of death and dying. Among many Aboriginal groups, it is considered highly taboo to speak the name or display likenesses of a deceased person. In some traditions, they may even temporarily rename things that share the deceased person's name to avoid speaking it. These warnings serve as a standard default, but taboos are not universal. In some cases, the family of the deceased may provide explicit permission for the name, voice, or image to be used to honor and remember their legacy. Kumanjayi Little Baby was a five-year-old Aboriginal Warlpiri girl whose tragic death in Alice Springs, Australia, in late April 2026 prompted national mourning and widespread calls for child protection reform. Following cultural traditions, her real given name is no longer used, and she is respectfully referred to by the community as "Kumanjayi Little Baby"Kumanjayi Little Baby was abducted in the early hours of April 26th, 2026, from the Old Timers town camp in Alice Springs. Her disappearance sparked a massive, five-day search by police and over 300 local volunteers.Her body was tragically discovered on April 30th, 2026, approximately 5 kilometers from where she was last seen. A 47-year-old man, Jefferson Lewis, was arrested and subsequently charged with her murder.Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachinePayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachineJoin Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials Available Upon Request.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head over to Tangerang, Indonesia, to discuss the case of 18-year-old Eno Farihah, a factory worker who was found murdered in her dormitory room at PT Polyta Global Mandiri on March 13, 2016. Her boyfriend Rahmat Alim, who was 15 or 16 years old at the time of the assault, murdered her alonside accomplices Rahmat Arafin, and Imam Hapriadi - both 24. All three men took issues with Eno after she rejected their sexual advances, and the younger Rahmat was enraged that Eno was going to break up with him due to an arranged marriage. What happened inside of that dorm room on the PT Polyta Global Mandiri campus is almost hard to imagine if we didn't have x-rays and CT scans backing up the evidence...Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachinePayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachineJoin Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials Available Upon Request.

The Case of Alisa Eleanor Rosenbrook
This week, Drewby and Yergy head back up to Wisconsin to discuss the case of 5-week-old Alisa Eleanor Rosenbrook, who was the daughter of of 90 Day Fiancé stars Leida Margaretha and Eric Rosenbrook, who died on July 9th, 2025. Just days prior, on July 4th, Eric was arrested for domestic battery after allegedly slapping Leida while she held the infant. Alisa was found unresponsive later that day and placed on life support for five days before passing away. Flash forward to March of 2026, and reports indicated that the Adams County Health and Human Services Department's initial assessment ruled Alisa's death "non-accidental." The assessment cited a "preponderance of the evidence to substantiate maltreatment of physical abuse to the infant by the mother." As of the date of this release in April of 2026, no criminal charges have been filed specifically in connection with the infant's death. A final autopsy report is still pending, and Erica and Leida have hired a private medical examiner to review the case. Their expert suggested that injuries, such as a fractured rib, could have occurred during the baby's C-section birth or during CPR efforts.Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachinePayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachineJoin Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials Available Upon Request.

This week, Yergy and Drewby head back over to Malaysia to discuss a case that needs more discussion, and that is the case of Zara Qairina binti Mahatir. We first learned of Zara's case while recently on vacation in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, after seeing a #JusticeForZara bumper sticker. Zara was a 13-year-old girl from Sabah who was found clinging to life in a drainage ditch outside of her private boarding school. It was quickly assumed that Zara might have fallen from the 3rd floor window of the girl's dormitory. But when rumors began to circulate that Zara had been bullied by a group of older girls from affluent families, her case made it all of the way to the desk of the Prime Minister, Anwar Ibrahim.

Michelle was last seen at around 7:00 p.m. at the Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Hayward, where she was completing a clinical rotation for Samuel Merritt University. She disappeared during a break while walking to her car. Her locked SUV was found abandoned nearby the next morning with bloodstains inside. Security footage and GPS data showed her former high school friend, Giselle Esteban, was at the scene and traveled along the same route as Michelle’s phone shortly after she vanished. After four months of intensive searches, Michelle Le’s skeletal remains were discovered in September 2011 in a remote canyon. Prosecutors established that Giselle was motivated by a "deadly obsession" and jealousy. She mistakenly believed that Michelle was having a romantic relationship with Scott Marasigan, the father of her child.Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachinePayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachineJoin Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials Available Upon Request.

In December 2025, her husband, Marc Rieben, was formally charged with her murder following a detailed investigation that revealed exceptionally gruesome details about the crime.

However, authorities revealed that after the murder, Marc allegedly dismembered Kristina's body using a jigsaw, garden shears, and a knife. He then allegedly used a hand blender to "puree" parts of her remains and dissolved them in a chemical solution in an attempt to dispose of the evidence.Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachinePayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachineJoin Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials Available Upon Request.

On the night of May 5th, 2019, first responders found a burning Audi sedan near Baisley Boulevard and 155th Street in Springfield Gardens, Queens. Autumn was strapped into a car seat in the back of the vehicle. To prevent her escape or rescue, her father, Martin "Tony" Pereira, had doused the car in gasoline and chained the rear doors shut from the inside. Investigators also found propane tanks and gas canisters intended to fuel the fire. Firefighters managed to pull Autumn from the wreckage after the heat from the flames melted the door handle, allowing them to break through the chains. She was rushed to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center but died shortly after from severe burns and smoke inhalation. Hours before the murder, Tony reportedly called Autumn's mother, Cherone Coleman, and told her, "You’ll never see your daughter again."Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachinePayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachineJoin Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1Instagram: miserymachinepodcastTwitter: misery_podcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM#themiserymachine #podcast #truecrimeSource Materials Available Upon Request.

Investigators discovered over 100 sets of human remains, including skulls and mummified parts, at his home and storage unit. He faces hundreds of criminal counts, including burglary, abuse of a corpse, and desecration of public monuments, and is currently held on $1 million bail.Note: Yes, I know we're pronouncing "Gerlach" wrong. We noticed after the fact while we were already away. We'd normally just re-record those parts, but we don't have the set up to do that overseas.

In court, prosecutors argued that Trinity killed the child out of resentment and jealousy, presenting text messages where she stated she "hated" the child and "wanted to punch him".

The Case of London Thomas
This week, Drewby and Yergy head over to Inkster, Michigan, to discuss a case that they have wanted to discuss for a very long time now, and that is the case of London Thomas. London was a beautiful 17-year-old girl with a promising future that went missing in April of 2025. Not long after, her remains were discovered sealed in a tote inside of an SUV. Her ex-boyfriend Jalen Pendergrass and his mother, Charla, have been arrested in connection to her death.

The Case of John Torneo
After a long career in nursing, John Torneo did what many retirees do... they pack up and head on down to the Sunshine State to live out their golden years in the warm weather. While in Florida, John met a young man that was down on his luck and needed a place to stay. Unfortunately, John's kind nature would put him in grave danger when the arrangement didn't pan out. This week, Drewby and Yergy head back down to Polk County to discuss the case of John Torneo, a New England native with a big heart that should have been left in peace... but he sadly wasn't.

ABOUT THIS SHOW
There’s a problem with True Crime.Creators idolize perpetrators, shame victims, or are completely checked out on cases while they focus on other things. However, we can’t forget there are victims who lost their lives and families who are still grieving to this day. Furthermore, many True Crime outlets spend their time focusing on themselves or rambling, instead of getting right to the facts of the case. We hear you, this is frustrating.The Misery Machine focuses on cases the media fails to give proper attention to. We want to help give those a voice that never got to have one, to begin with. We also cover aspects of cases that other podcasts might look the other way on, and the way that these cases impact their communities for generations. It’s not enough to simply cover a case, our platform must be used to make a difference.
