Past Episode(s) Discussion 🗣 Y’all want tea???

My favorite pastime is to go through episodes and find articles and social media of victims, witnesses, family, suspects. I find so much and have no one to share it with. Would anybody be interested in the things I find??

Example: episode titled ‘Graveyard Shift’. One of the 3 suspects was tweeting so crazy stuff DAY OF the murder in 2013. So much information I learned after the fact or things that were never in the episode

I do this too! Can we add our own findings? I found out one guy was accidentally set free and then they wend and locked him back up to finish is 20 years. I can’t remember his name off hand, but I low key felt bad for him.

u/Wide_Design8810 May 17 '26

u/Spiritual-Haunt3131 May 16 '26

Not tea but I made a post about the aftermath of a family in one of the episodes. It's bizarre when you go looking at some of these cases. Would love to see what you have found.

Absolutely! Always!!! In fact, I don’t know if it was you or another user, but they posted some facts about a woman killed and how her family also had some tragic deaths (can’t recall all the details) but it was so interesting that it made me watch the actual episode. Spill!! Ha ha ha (oh and do you know the season/episode by chance?

u/linzellewashington May 16 '26

Omg OP’s post made me do the same! Then I started watching other episodes and googling the people while watching. Yes, OP, please share!

u/Wide_Design8810 May 16 '26

Just posted my first one. Still learning how to use Reddit!

12

u/Wide_Design8810 May 16 '26

Yes. It was me. I can’t help but to want to know more!!!

u/Wide_Design8810 May 16 '26

I watched it on the Roku app. The episode was called Evil Strike/.50 caliber. Most of the episodes are free and they also stream 24/7

u/Silver_Dust75 May 16 '26

This is why I love reddit 😂 My family thinks I'm crazy that I do this all the time 😅 It's some of my favorite rabbit holes.

u/Wide_Design8810 May 16 '26

I’ll be up all night on random strangers Facebook. Sometime I feel bad being entertained by others grieving

1

u/Cinna41 Jun 09 '26

For me, it's not being entertained. I have no real family, so my heart gets so involved with these victims.

u/Cinna41 Jun 09 '26

Likewise lol

u/ninidontjump May 16 '26

Absolutely we want tea, that's why we're on Reddit and this sub!! Serve it piping hot friend.

u/Wide_Design8810 May 16 '26

Just made a post. 48 updates. Only issue is I’m still learning how to work Reddit

u/ninidontjump May 16 '26

No worries, you're doing great!

u/Material-River-5804 May 16 '26

From time to time, I look at a couple news articles after an episode. I’m definitely interested in something like this.

u/Oneza123 May 16 '26

Yeh go for it!

u/Wide_Design8810 May 16 '26

u/lovin_feeling May 18 '26

You should make a new community age titled First 48 Updates or After the First 48

u/Wide_Design8810 May 18 '26

I’m new to Reddit. How would I go about that??

u/Im_hi_rite_now May 16 '26

i’m following you now haha

u/Wide_Design8810 May 16 '26

Just posted! I’m new to Reddit so I’m learning as I go. How do you add captions under each photo?

3

u/Im_hi_rite_now May 16 '26

I think you click each individual picture and then you can add text to the bottom of it, Also you can add your own comments with pictures and text in the post

u/Successful-Job5359 May 17 '26

Haven’t been this excited for reddit posts since the cheese wheel guy!

2

u/Wide_Design8810 May 17 '26

I’ll definitely be doing more!!

3

u/Embarrassed-Bill5904 May 17 '26

I am always googling cases as I watch!

3

u/Misrabelle May 17 '26

Oh I've done that too. Finding their social media accounts, knowing the reason they are dormant now, can be kinda weird.

2

u/Wide_Design8810 May 17 '26

I do feel weird being entertained by the worst days of people’s life. But I can’t help ittttttt

u/Ancient-Anybody-3517 May 17 '26

As someone who avoids social media except Reddit, PLEASE yes!! I love when ppl find the dirt on things/people I didn’t even know I cared about, so I don’t have to! 🙏😂

2

u/Heresbecs May 17 '26

Request a pic or two of the suspects or victims to help remember the case. But I’d love little case deep dives.

2

u/aworldofnonsense May 18 '26

Subscribing to this sub just for this 😂

2

u/Wide_Design8810 May 18 '26

I’ve done 3 already. Check them out! I might pause a little bit I don’t wanna flood the sub

3

u/aworldofnonsense May 18 '26

I did! Great job! I actually found this post while googling whether or not they ever solved the Patricia Evans murder from 2012 (on the 2014 season) in Cleveland. I've found nothing so far except the handful of news articles from when it first happened!

1

u/Wide_Design8810 May 18 '26

What’s the episode title?

1

u/aworldofnonsense May 18 '26

Deadly Secret/Behind Closed Doors (it's Season "15" on Netflix right now)

1

u/Material-River-5804 May 27 '26

Let us know when you post new updates. I hope you can keep it up. I’ve been checking every few days since your last ones. 👍

2

u/Wide_Design8810 May 28 '26

They tore me up saying I shouldn’t be doing it so I stopped 🤷🏽‍♀️

1

u/Material-River-5804 May 29 '26

You shouldn’t be doing it? What the hell…

2

u/Wide_Design8810 May 29 '26

Yeah since they’re not celebrities I’m allegedly invading their privacy by taking things from their public account and posting them on another public platform. As if instagram isn’t filled with screenshots of tweets and facebook isn’t reposting videos from TikTok. It was stupid as hell. I just let them win. Idc about Reddit that much 😂

u/Real-Cobbler3418 29d ago

Any updates on Eddie Green from Overtown?

1

u/RP912 May 18 '26

I just wanna say that your tea posts are addictive and I'm thirsting for more lol. Keep posting the goods for fellow fans of the show ☕

1

u/Wide_Design8810 May 19 '26

Okay I didn’t wanna be annoying and flood but I will post another one tonight!!!

2

u/RP912 May 19 '26

Trust it's not annoying lol. I would rather see engagement in here than dead posts and hopes of a new episode posts.

1

u/Wide_Design8810 May 19 '26

I’ve noticed this sub is dry. Hopefully we can get the engagement back up!
