Crimes Of Reddit with Sabrina Deana-Roga & Alexis Linkletter

Show Notes

In 2005, a married factory worker reinvented himself online, and fell hard for a girl he’d never met. When “Tommy,” “Jessi,” and a coworker named Brian became tangled in a toxic digital love triangle, jealousy exploded into real-world violence. Sabrina and Corinne uncover the TalHotBlond case, where fantasy blurred into obsession… and one lie led to another until a man wound up dead.
