According to Human Rights Watch, it’s estimated that about 90 per cent of crimes in Mexico are never reported, while a third of reported crimes are never investigated. About 2,600 foreigners have gone missing in Mexico in the past 15 years.
In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss two separate cases of foreigners who have gone missing in Mexico.
Canadian man Malcom Madsen was a snowbird who enjoyed traveling to Mexico every year. Malcolm purchased a home near Puerto Vallarta for his girlfriend Marcela Acosta. In 2018, the couple were seen on CCTV enjoying a night out at a local bar. Marcela could be seen putting a substance into Malcom’s drink. Minutes later, they left the bar and Malcom was unsteady on his feet. He has not been seen since. Marcela and two accomplices have been sentenced to over 50 years in prison in relation to Malcom’s disappearance.Australian woman Tahnee Shanks had been living in Mexico for years in 2022. She and her husband Jorge had been having marriage problems, and she planned to return to Australia with their daughter Adelynn. The family decided to take one last vacation together. In May 2022, Adelynn was found wandering alone and barefoot outside a church in Cancun. Now, almost three years later, both Tahnee and Jorge remain missing. Is Jorge on the run after killing Tahnee or could they both have been murdered by the Mexican cartel?Read our blog for these cases

In March 1998, Amy Bradley boarded a Royal Caribbean cruise with her brother, mother and father, looking forward to some fun in the sun.
The family enjoyed seeing Aruba and taking advantage of all that the ship had to offer including restaurants, bars and nightclubs.
One night on their cruise, Amy and her brother Brad danced until the early morning hours at the nightclub on the ship. They went back to their cabin and Amy was seen asleep by her father just after 5am. When he woke up again at 6am, Amy was gone.
27 years later, Amy remains missing. The investigation into her disappearance has been criticized by her family as Royal Caribbean did not want to alarm other passengers on board.
Over the years, there have been many reported sightings of Amy and it is feared that she has been trafficked and is being forced to work in the sex industry.
Was Amy abducted and smuggled off the ship? Could she still be alive? Or did she fall overboard and drown?

(15:00) - Johnny Gosch
On September 5, 1982, Johnny Gosch (12) left his home in the early morning to carry out his paper route. His father would usually go with him, but on that fateful day Johnny went alone.
Witnesses reported seeing Johnny speaking to different men that morning. His red wagon, filled with newspapers, would be found abandoned by his father.
There have been reported sightings of Johnny over the years. Johnny’s mother Noreen has said that in 1997, Johnny showed up at her home to visit her. Johnny explained to Noreen what had happened during his abduction and said that he still feared for his life. Noreen said she hugged him at the end of their visit, and watched him leave.
Could Johnny really be alive and living a life under the radar? Did he really visit his mother 15 years after he vanished?

In 2019, Evelyn Boswell (15 months) was seen alive for the last time, reportedly by a babysitter in Blountville, Tennessee.
Evelyn was not reported missing until February 2020. Her grandfather raised the alarm after he said he had not seen the child since Thanksgiving.
Authorities started investigating and zeroed in on Evelyn’s mother, Megan ‘Maggie’ Boswell. Megan gave varying accounts of where the child was and repeatedly lied to law enforcement.
In March 2020, Evelyn’s tiny body was found with her head wrapped in aluminum foil. She had been stuffed into a trash can and discarded like waste.
Megan would be arrested and charged with Evelyn’s murder. Now, five years later, Megan’s trial has just concluded and she has been found guilty of killing her daughter.

(7:57) - Poisoning Cases
In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss two cases where men were possibly drugged to death by women.
Sports reporter Adan Manzano (27) was found dead with no signs of trauma in his New Orleans hotel room in February 2025. Adan had been in the city to cover the upcoming Super Bowl. When police began investigating, they discovered Adan was last seen with a female ‘career criminal,' Danette Colbert. Danette has a history of drugging and robbing men. It was discovered that Danette used Adan’s credit card after his death. His cause of death is still pending with the Medical Examiner.
Indiana man Harold Allen died in 2022 from what was initially thought to be natural causes. It was only after his step-daughter, Ashley Jones, staged a robbery that his death was investigated. It came to light that Harold was likely poisoned to death with ethylene glycol by his wife Marsha and Ashley. The women tried multiple times to kill Harold with varying substances before they were successful. After Marsha was questioned by police, she took her own life. Ashley is currently awaiting trial.

Dr. Amie Harwick was an established marriage, family and sexuality specialist. She worked in Los Angeles and was highly respected in her field.
In 2009, Amie began dating a man named Gareth Pursehouse. After 18 months, things turned sour and they broke up. Except, Gareth could not accept the change. He was violent towards Amie and stalked her, forcing her to take out multiple protective orders.
Amie managed to distance herself from Gareth over the following years. In January 2020, the two had a chance meeting at a public event that Amie was attending and Gareth was working at. This meeting caused Gareth to fly into a rage which terrified Amie.
On Valentine’s Day 2020, Amie attended a burlesque show with her friends. Gareth waited until she left and he broke into her home. He lay in her bed and waited for. When Amie arrived home, she was brutally attacked by Gareth and he threw her off a balcony, leaving her to die.
Gareth would go to trial for Amie’s murder and he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
There have also been some big updates in the ‘suicide’ of Ellen Greenberg. The medical examiner who originally titled Ellen’s death a suicide has now backtracked. "It is my professional opinion Ellen's manner of death should be designated as something other than suicide," Dr Marlon Osbourne said.

(10:36) - Daniel Morcombe
In December 2003, Australian teen Daniel Morcombe (13) had saved up some money and decided to take the bus to a shopping center to buy Christmas gifts for his family.
Daniel walked to a nearby bus stop. He attempted to flag down a bus, but the driver was unable to stop due to mechanical issues with the vehicle. A second bus followed behind very shortly. Daniel was no longer at the bus stop and was never seen alive again.
The investigation into Daniel’s disappearance was one of the largest ever seen in Australia. At one stage, there was a reward of $1m offered in the case.
In 2011, a sex offender named Brett Peter Cowan was arrested and charged with Daniel’s murder. Cowan had offered Daniel a lift to the shopping centre after the bus failed to stop. Cowan murdered Daniel within an hour of his abduction.
In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the abduction and murder of Daniel Morcombe.

Tracey Nix fell asleep while she was meant to be caring for her grandson Ezra, who was 16 months old. Ezra got out of the home and went to a pond on the family property. He ended up drowning and passing away.
An investigation was conducted and no charges were laid against Tracey.
In November 2022, Tracey was caring for another grandchild, Uriel, who was 7 months old. Tracey took the baby to a restaurant for lunch and then drove her home. Instead of taking the baby into the home, Tracey left her in the vehicle and went inside to play the piano. She insists that she ‘just forgot’ that the baby was in the vehicle. Uriel would pass away from hyperthermia after being left in the car in 90 degree temperatures.
Tracey was recently taken to trial for Uriel’s death. Ezra’s death was not allowed to be discussed during proceedings. Tracey has been found not guilty of the manslaughter of Uriel but has been convicted on a lesser charge.

In October 2024, a 911 call was placed from the home of Tennessee woman Jessica Chandler. When authorities arrived, they found her two children, aged 4 and 1, unresponsive. Both children were declared dead at the scene.
When authorities first investigated, it was determined that Jessica had likely poisoned her children before making a superficial attempt to take her own life. Authorities initially believed this as empty medication bottles were found at the scene. This case is unfolding in the courts at the moment and we have since learned that Jessica actually smothered her children with a Lilo and Stitch blanket.
Lacey Spears lived an unusual and tumultuous life. Growing up, she told stories about abuse, eating disorders and abortion. None of which have been proven to be true. Lacey gave birth to a son, Garnett, in 2008. She immediately made up lies about Garnett’s father and started documenting her sons ‘medical issues’ online. Lacey insisted that Garnett have a feeding tube placed because he was unable to tolerate standard feeding. Nurses were skeptical as they were able to feed the baby without any issues.
When Garnett was five, he ended up being airlifted to hospital. His sodium levels were so high that a doctor confronted his mother about the situation. Garnett passed away days later and a police investigation began.
Lacey was convicted of murdering her son by injecting him with ultra levels of sodium. Authorities believe she suffers from Munchausen syndrome by proxy.
Poisoning murders are a very rare occurrence. This method accounts for just under one-half of one percent of murders.

(14:09) - The Murder of Mike Williams
In 2000, Florida man Mike Williams seemed to have it all. He was married to his high school sweetheart, Denise, and they had a beautiful daughter together. Mike was successful in his career and enjoyed many hobbies, including hunting.
One early morning in December 2000, Mike allegedly took his boat and went hunting on Lake Seminole. Denise raised the alarm when he did not return by noon. The search for Mike began, and ran for months. One theory was that Mike had been injured in a boating accident, fallen overboard and drowned. It was expected that his remains would eventually surface in the lake. They didn’t.
Just months after he disappeared, Denise petitioned to have Mike declared dead so that she could claim almost $2m in life insurance. A judge agreed, despite the usual waiting period in Florida for someone to be declared dead being five years.
Five years after Mike vanished, Denise married his best friend (and life insurance salesman) Brian Winchester. Their marriage was tumultuous and would eventually end in divorce. After their marriage fell apart, the truth came out. Brian and Denise had been having an affair and they worked together to kill Mike. His remains were found in 2017.

Lee was arrested and charged with capital murder.

After auditioning for ‘The X Factor’ as a teen, Liam Payne was grouped together with Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson to form one of the best selling boy bands of all time -- One Direction.
Throughout his career, Liam felt isolated and struggled with his mental health and sobriety. He said he was grateful when the band broke up because he knew the lifestyle would eventually kill him.
On October 16, 2024, the manager of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires called police to report "an aggressive man who could be under the effects of drugs and alcohol."
Police arrived at the hotel moments later and found Liam dead at the age of 31. He had fallen from a third floor balcony onto a courtyard below.
Since his death, police have arrested three people alleging they supplied drugs to Liam multiple times before his fall.
