The Farmville Murders

Criminology

About this episode

Richard McCroskey was looking for people who accept him on the internet. He had been bullied in school over his red hair and weight. But online he became a different person, a much more confident person. And Richard thought he had found a girlfriend in 16-year-old Emma Niederbrock, four years his junior.

Join Mike and Morf as they discuss Richard McCroskey and the Farmville murders. After chatting online for about a year, Richard and Emma decided to meet in person. Richard was going to Emma's house so that they could attend a horrorcore music festival, something the two had in common. However, the trip did not go as Richard planned, and in the end, it turned deadly.
