It’s About Time for True Crime! Join your new favorite hosts as we explore true crime cases of all kinds, drawing on more than a decade of combined education—and even more real-world experience—in and around the criminal justice field.

Each episode explores the events, circumstances, psychology, sociology, and investigative details behind the crimes. We dive beyond the headline to understand not only what happened, but why.

While many episodes focus on specific cases, we also explore special topics within the world of crime and criminal justice, from investigative techniques to patterns in criminal behavior. We balance the heavy hitting material with some much needed sarcasm and dry humor, because sometimes, if you’re not laughing, you’re crying!

Most importantly, we aim to bring light and voice to the victims and survivors. We hope to build a community that honors those affected, learns from the past, and works toward preventing these tragedies from happening again.

There’s room for everyone at the ATFTC table!

  • The Land Before Time Murder; the Murders of Judith and Maria Barsi
    Jun 30 2026

    Episode 232: The Land Before Time Murder; the Murders of Judith and Maria Barsi

    Judith Barsi was a beautiful little 10 year old girl who had already become a household Hollywood name. She voiced “Ducky” in “The Land Before Time” and Anne-Marie in “All Dogs Go To Heaven” and had several more acting credits. She came from immigrant Hungarian parents and it seemed the family were living the American dream. Behind closed doors, her father Jozsef emotionally and physically abused her and her mother Maria. Her father, often drunk, resented that his daughter earned more than him, and threatened her and her mother on several occasions. On July 25, 1988, a brutal double-murder-suicide ended the lives of all three in the Barsi family home.

  • The Murder of Randy Ferguson
    Jun 23 2026

    Episode 231: The Murder of Randy Ferguson

    When 40 year old Randy Ferguson met Angela, it seemed like he’d finally found his person. She was a single mom of 4, and he’d always wanted children. Randy was regarded as a gentle giant by his family, who he was very close with. They were excited for him when he married Angela and they soon welcomed their baby girl Alison. But their relationship looked different behind closed doors. Randy’s disappearance in March 2006 set off alarm bells, and before long, his body was found in the trunk of his own car. His family was devastated, and suspicion quickly fell on his wife. After his killer was convicted, Randy’s loved ones fought for legislation that changed sentencing guidelines for family members who assist in a murder.

    Marsha P. Johnson was a trans woman and activist known for her outspokenness for LGBTQIA+ issues in the 70s and 80s. She was well known in her circles as a sex worker, performer, and activist in NYC. In early July 1992, Marsha was missing, and before long, her body was found floating in the Hudson River.

After varying reports of men seen with Marsha the evening she went missing, some believe there could have been foul play.
