    #09 - Isabella Nardoni
    Nov 14 2025
    On March 29th, 2008, five-year-old Isabella Nardoni fell from the sixth-floor window of her father's apartment in São Paulo, Brazil. What police initially treated as a tragic accident quickly became the most publicized criminal case in Brazilian history when forensic evidence revealed a far darker truth.
    Isabella had been strangled, beaten, and deliberately thrown through a cut protective screen while in the care of the two people who should have protected her most. As investigators pieced together the events of that Saturday night, they uncovered a story of jealousy, violence, and a staged crime scene that captivated an entire nation.

    This episode examines the investigation, the forensic evidence, and the trial that gripped Brazil for two years. With 98% of the country following the case, the line between justice and media spectacle became dangerously blurred.

    Content Warning: This episode contains detailed discussion of child abuse and violence against a minor.

    #08 - The Lady of Silence
    Sep 26 2025
    In January 2006, Mexico City's most wanted serial killer was finally caught—but the capture shocked a nation. For years, authorities hunted "El Mataviejitas," believing they were chasing a brilliant male predator who targeted elderly women. The truth was far more disturbing: the killer was Juana Barraza, a professional wrestler and mother who used her wrestling persona "La Dama del Silencio" to hide in plain sight.

    This episode explores Mexico's first female serial killer case, revealing how gender bias blinded investigators for years while Barraza methodically murdered at least 16 elderly women. From her traumatic childhood to her double life as both devoted mother and calculating predator, we uncover how she exploited society's blind spots and why her victims mattered when thousands of other murdered women didn't.

    A chilling examination of prejudice, politics, and the hierarchy of whose lives matter in modern Mexico.

    Content warning: This episode contains discussions of violence, murder, and sexual assault.

    #07 - The Base School Case
    Sep 12 2025
    March 1994, São Paulo. A phone call to TV Globo about alleged child abuse at a small preschool would destroy four innocent lives in just 72 hours.

    When 4-year-old children made disturbing claims about their teachers, Brazil's hungry media machine turned speculation into fact and accusation into conviction.

    By the time the truth emerged three months later, careers were ended, marriages destroyed, and lives lost to stress and heartbreak.

    On this episode of Latin Noir, host Elias Crowe examines how a newly free press became an instrument of destruction, and why the Base School Case is now mandatory study in Brazilian journalism schools as the ultimate example of "what not to do."

    Some stories serve as warnings. This is one of them.

    Content Warning: Discusses false accusations of child abuse and media harassment.
