Hi, yes, I need an ambulance. Okay, hold on. Cut the scary music. Look, this isn't just your typical true crime podcast. My name is Sallise Stanton, and I'm the creator and host of True a Crime, a podcast I started after I was robbed of my entire life savings back in 2020.

The truth is so much more than simplistic narratives about beautiful victims and evil perpetrators. True a crime aims to go deeper, highlighting stories that hit at the complex realities of crime. This is a true crime show, yes, but one that strikes at the core of our shared human experiences. In each episode, we'll share stories about fear.

And stories about all the folks who refuse to give up hope. I want to be the.

[00:01:46]

Voice for others that I never had. I want them to know that any abuse is wrong. If it takes me 20 years and I can live that long, I'll be working on this case.
