True Crime for the Short on Time: In Front of the Children

True Crime for the Short on Time: In Front of the Children

In 2023, California police responded to a 911 call about a stabbing. When they arrived, officers discovered a 30-year-old woman severely injured. But worst of all, her two toddlers were alone with her in the home. Police searched for the suspect but wouldn't need to look for long. And a history of violence would soon come into focus. Join John Conner in a solo episode as he dives deep into the dark to discuss the murder of Eleni Tavau. Will this case be enough to make you check the locks?
