Deadly And Depraved

In 2005, Joseph Edward Duncan III murdered members of the Groene family and abducted two children into the Montana wilderness. Only one would survive. This is the story of Shasta Groene — and the moment everything changed inside a Denny’s at 2 AM, when four ordinary people trusted their instincts and stopped a predator. 🍸 This week’s cocktail: The Grand Slam Deadly and Depraved — true crime with a cocktail twist.

A predator hiding in plain sight. A deadly stretch of highway. And a man who turned trust into opportunity. Randall Woodfield wasn’t just another traveler along Interstate 5. He was a former college athlete, charming, calculated, and hiding a violent pattern that would terrorize the Pacific Northwest. Women disappeared. Survivors told chilling stories. And a trail of brutality stretched from Washington to California. When investigators finally connected the dots, what they uncovered was far more depraved than anyone imagined. Because this wasn’t just a killer passing through. This was a man hunting. This week’s cocktail is The Wide Deceiver, bright, smooth, and easy to trust until it burns. Just like the man at the center of this case. Hosted by Karen McCullar (@realkmcco) and Paula Moore (@pauladescantmoore). Deadly and Depraved, true crime with a cocktail twist.
