True Crime Compilation

52 Lock Up a series I had started

By CadmaPublished about 6 hours ago 3 min read

I really have to get back to making these videos but here is a list of my true crime stories

A story about the “grandma” at a police precinct; that everyone trusted but was doing a lot right under their noses.

I took a chance to focus on Russia here below; I was previously studying bits of Russian myself and I believe in taking to the news and literature to master a language.

These are covering the war crimes but I really should get my show back up and cover the ones another country is committing nowadays…

Paying respects to FDNY, not everyone realizes how dangerous it is to be an EMT whether you’re in the 911 system or working transportation or heck even being an industrial medic; I would know. There is something about being a healer people think healers are not supposed to hit back and it is okay to attack them; you might tbe surprised at the attacks of healthcare professionals and what they face every day and still go back to work.

This is one of the saddest cases I had covered and this poor child did not deserve that kind of death; it is amazing how arrogant they are when they commit the crime expecting to get a slap on the wrist For the crime.

True crime has never been entertainment for me. It has always been personal.

For many people, true crime begins with curiosity like a puzzle, a mystery or a story about human behavior pushed to its extremes. For me, it began with lived experience. I know what it is like to be a victim of crime and not receive justice. More than once, I have found myself in situations where harm was done, yet the systems that are supposed to protect people either failed, stalled or simply moved on. When that happens something changes in the way you see the world. Crime stops being an abstract headline and becomes something deeply human, deeply painful and deeply complicated.

But I have also experienced the other side of that reality. I have been a witness. Being a witness carries its own weight. When you see something wrong happening to another person, you are suddenly placed in a position where your choices matter. Do you step forward? Do you speak up? Do you try to help even when the outcome is uncertain? Those moments reveal how fragile justice can be and how much it often depends on ordinary people being willing to act.

These experiences are a large part of why true crime has become a passion of mine. Not because I am fascinated by violence or tragedy but because I want to understand the patterns behind them. Every crime story contains ***signals *** moments before the event where something was wrong, where behavior shifted, where warning signs appeared but were missed, dismissed or misunderstood.

That is the purpose behind 52 Lock Up Show.

The goal of the show is not to sensationalize crime or glorify criminals. Instead, it is meant to create a space where people can talk honestly about the realities surrounding crime and justice. Each story becomes an opportunity to ask difficult but necessary questions What were the early warning signs? What patterns were visible before the crime occurred? What could communities, institutions, or individuals have done differently?

Too often, society only begins paying attention after something terrible has already happened. By that point, the focus shifts toward punishment and investigation rather than prevention. But if we truly want to reduce crime and protect people, we have to be willing to examine the moments that come before the headlines.

Early warning signs can appear in many forms of patterns of manipulation, escalating aggression, repeated boundary violations, isolation tactics, or behavior that others quietly excuse because they do not want conflict. Sometimes the signs are subtle. Other times they are painfully obvious in hindsight.

The conversations on 52 Lock Up Show aim to bring those overlooked moments into the open. By discussing real cases, lived experiences, and the complexities of human behavior, the show encourages listeners to think more critically about how crimes develop and how communities can respond earlier.

My hope is that these discussions help people recognize patterns sooner, trust their instincts more confidently, and support those who speak up when something feels wrong. Justice is not only about what happens after a crime. It is also about what we learn before the next one occurs.

If we are willing to listen carefully to victims, witnesses, and the uncomfortable details in between we may begin to see the signs earlier and prevent at least some harm from ever happening again.
