This is an episode of Once Upon a Crime about the 1993 murder of Florida teen Bobby Kent.
Once Upon a Crime is an awesome podcast that details true crime stories in series, such as crimes related to music, or Hollywood, or involving munchausen by proxy. The host, Esther Ludlow, is down to earth, and her episodes are lively without being too "newscaster-y". She is exactly the type of person you'd want to sit down and talk about crime with.
The episode is one of the most chilling Once Upon a Crime episodes I have ever heard. First of all, it's in Florida and I feel like the most deranged people live there. Secondly, he was a bully and did the sickest emotional torment on others. So you can imagine his murder is pretty brutal. His entire story is a wild ride from start to finish, involving crappy porn that they filmed and attempted to peddle, steroids, and a failed hit man.
