Hahaha "Sunny Albany." It's SUNY Albany, as in State University of New York. It's an organization of state schools in NY. That gave me a chuckle, thank you! Just found you guys on snapchat and I'm going back and watching all of your episodes; I love them!

[@phoenixrising76]

Lol I can walk to SUNY Albany

[@rachclare8245]

Waking up to a notification from KZbin that you guys had posted a new episode made me so happy. We just went back into lock-down in Western Australia, so I needed some MWMH true crime to cheer me up! Thanks for another great episode guys - I absolutely love watching your videos, you two are the cutest. Also, love the new haircut Garrett! :p

Found you on tiktok and have binged all day today! So good!

[@ruedrake1558]

As a sex worker the word youre looking for instead of "pimp" is "booker" its someone who books, screens and organises adds for us. No shade or anything, i think you handled this story really well.

[@murderwithmyhusband]

Hi! Thank you so much for taking the time to teach me so I can do better. I was completely unaware of the word “booker” and will use that going forward! Thank you for being kind and taking the time🖤 thanks for listening!

So I’ve been watching your snap stories for the longest time. I have no idea why I never thought to search if you had a KZbin for your podcast because basically all I do in my free time is watch true crime podcasts on KZbin 😂😂😂😂 I LOVE YOU GUYS. So happy my brain kicked in and I will now be rewatching all your episodes on here hahaha. Hope you guys have a Merry Christmas 🎄 ❤

[@annaworthen4592]

Hi guys! I am a huge fan. It was crazy to hear you do this story, because Trisha is a lifelong friend of mine. When I first heard this it all sounded correct until the end. It had been several years since I had talked to Trisha about it. So I touched base with her to get some facts straight. First, you should know that Trisha does not live in or around Boston. Even if she wanted to, she couldn’t be available at a moments notice. I’ll just let Trisha tell you the rest. A: Did they ask you to come in and view him in a in person lineup prior to him being pulled over? T: No. They never had him in custody before that. Why? A: I was just making sure, a podcast I’m listening to kinda makes it sound like he almost got away because you couldn’t be bothered enough to come in and do a lineup. T: The day they arrested him they had him pulled over before he crossed over state lines. I was in my hotel room with a New York detective looking at a picture lineup. They drove to New York to see me. Because I had already left Boston. Even if he had crossed state lines they had detectives waiting for him.

SUNY Albany, the school I graduated from, is a state school. I remember hearing about the Craigslist killer. You should cover the murders on Long Island aka the Gilgo Beach Killer

It always surprises me what they find in searches. For instance the case where they found all the victims passwords and financial information in the family photo albums. Sometimes they go hard during these searches and with all the corners I've seen cut its pretty astonishing to see how in depth some of them go.

Love your content, listening in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 keep up the good work guys 😃

[@vindifference]

Stories like these just make me lament the state of society and the human condition for how much of a waste some lives become and it's honestly tragic. That we take a kid through the entire academic system doing everything right, on the way to be a doctor, is successful in maintaining functional relationships and being loveable to others, only for the psychology to not all be there, and then cause all this suffering, death, and then ultimately to die in such a horrible way as consequence of his own actions. It's such a waste how humans for whatever mental reasons just self destruct and take others down with them. And more cases keep being bred and raised as we breathe.

[@camryncolleen5361]

Just a heads up: about 27:43 Transgender is an adjective, not a noun. It’s a piece of our identity, but not all that we are. Saying “transgenders” has a history of being used by hateful, bigotry, and ignorant people. I know that’s not your intention so please be aware!

[@rebekaroga1116]

was searching in the comments hoping someone commented something along these lines ♥️hoping they see this just so they can be aware not to make the mistake again! i really feel like Payton meant no harm with this, she always puts in the moves to be the respectful King that she is

I think Garret needs to watch some videos of guns with silencers because they don’t work the same way they do in the movies. They’re still quite loud

[@btsaristan1432]

True but either way he’s just surprised that the guy didn’t even bother to try and be discreet about the sound of the gun

When the police have a warrant and they come into your house they turn that mother f***** upside down. They will take every pair of shoes out of the box and rip the soles out of them everything never seen that many shoes they're on a cross the living room in my life and they didn't put them back either

Wow was weird hearing my name Jalisa regarding to a murder. O.O really caught my attention.

[@tanishaadames8827]

Being from Albany, my stomach turned when I heard that he went to SUNY Albany. 🤦‍♀️

[@El_Matatan7]

Im from NY so SUNY is State University of New York and CUNY is City University of New York. So SUNY is more like upscale like away from the city upstate & Long Island, but it still a public schools, CUNY have more campuses in or around the city ( i.e have classes in Manhattan also in Queens) but yeah it’s harder to get into SUNY

[@domrenault]

All the podcasts I listen to use Wikipedia! I threw them some pocket change, we all should.

[@murderwithmyhusband]

Agreed!!!! I did too🖤

[@diana7535]

Its very weird listening to this, bc I live so close to SUNY Albany xD

[@teelamorissette5615]

I don't think silencers work to way people think they do. They don't work like the movies. They just reduce the sound, but it doesn't take it away completely.

hey! its actually way better to use transgender people than transgenders. love the show !

it's SUNY (sooney) Albany (Ahlbany) and it stands for State University of New york

SUNY = State University of New York, which has 64 campuses, each of which has a different name, like 'SUNY Stony Brook', etc.

[@dennisandreatos5606]

Where are all the other episodes

[@danilepley]

Hey just so you're aware, the correct way to say it is "transgender people," not "transgenders." That way of describing people is kind of derogatory and I'm sure you didn't mean it that way.

[@carlarivadeneira4402]

I thought it was disrespectful to not say people after that. For example, saying death people….it is better to say a person who is death…. Does that make sense?

[@shareeverdon8191]

great haircut Garrett!!!

[@emmawarmanen7887]

Haircut is 10/10

[@CaptainPigl3t]

This is an old video lol - but he probably got off on the adrenaline of the robbery like he did during gambling so it was equal parts give me money to gamble but also getting the rush from taking it. That just my opinion!

[@skysempiternal]

I really love your podcast but some of the language you used when referring to the transgender victims really rubbed me the wrong way. I'm sure it's not intentional and just a lack of education on the subject, but calling victims transgenders and referring to transgender women as men is not okay.

[@LeXyStAr77]

The act itself was also a gamble

How could his wife not have noticed women's underwear under the mattress? Not to be sexist but its more likely that she would have changed the sheets than him. more so due to guys being lazy about that sort of thing.
