On True Crime Time For September 21, 2026, Woody Overton opens with #JusticeForMadison, reacting to public social-media comments surrounding the ongoing search for Madison Renee Allen and Stephanie Hevia and reminding listeners that law enforcement has not publicly disclosed everything investigators know.

Then it's an episode Woody jokingly realizes could be called “Family Matters.”

In Russia, a mother was convicted as an accomplice after authorities determined she knew her husband was sexually abusing their daughters and encouraged the children to obey him. Another Russian case involves a convicted murderer and rapist released to fight in Ukraine who later returned and murdered his ex-wife and her 7-year-old daughter.

Woody also covers the extraordinary case of three Russian sisters accused of killing the father they said had sexually abused and terrorized them for years. Despite findings supporting their abuse allegations, the murder investigation against the sisters has now been reopened.

Back in the United States, Jenny King, 44, is accused of repeatedly stabbing her 14-year-old son inside their El Paso home while he was playing video games. His brother intervened, called 911 and helped control the bleeding until help arrived.

Finally, Woody turns to the death penalty: Alabama executed Jeffery James Lee for the 1998 murders of Jimmy Ellis and Elaine Thompson, while Texas executed LeJames Norman for the 2005 murders of Samuel Roberts, Tiffani Peacock and Celso Lopez. In Georgia, the scheduled execution of Stacey Humphreys was halted while a court considers whether Georgia's new Survivor Justice Act could entitle him to resentencing based on alleged childhood abuse.

Woody closes with updates on #JusticeForHailey and #JusticeForMadison.
