Episode 44: The George Family
Send us a text A good mother makes every possible effort to make sure her child is provided for. Necessities of course are important, but every once in a while, it is music to the soul watching your child or children laugh and enjoy a family day together. Cindy George had the same perspective, and was known by all who knew her as a Do-Anything-For-My-Kids mother. So when the opportunity presented itself to housesit for extended family, Cindy could think of nothing else than spoiling her three young children with a movie night away from home. Cindy could never have imagined that it would be their last night together, or that it would be her actions that led to one of the most tragic cases New Zealand has ever recorded.Join Dayvid and Amanda for an old-school aid-stationesque episode featuring our friends Like Mother Like Murder Podcast's awesome trailer and our sponsor Weird Sauce's amazing commercial.*If you are just here for the story and don't want to hear the banter (understandable, we swear), skip to about 1h15m in.This episode contains triggering content involving topics such as suicide, drug use, foul language and child death.

This podcast is far from your typical podcast. Beware the faint of heart, and welcome the macabre and the morbid. Each episode will feature a different human victim, whether they succumbed to an animal attack, were murdered by another human, or met their grisly fate in a freak accident. We will learn more about the victim's life and death in each episode, and learn a bit about why or how they were chosen to depart this earthly realm, along with some interesting facts and features about the animals and people that caused these traumatic events, and how we can potentially avoid being in those situations ourselves.
