Speculating Wildly About Crime
Speculating Wildly About Crime came together as a few people brought together by our fascination of true crime. The cases we present to you come from facts that we have learned from various media outlets. Please recognize we try our very best to relay the information as accurately as possible. Any thoughts and theories presented about each case are solely the opinions of our group. Through this process, we have always been and will always be the advocate for the victim. In short, please note this is for entertainment purposes only. We take true crime very seriously, but not always ourselves. We are not doctors, or law enforcement.
