In this chilling episode of The Scarecast, we delve into the disturbing case of Miranda and Elytte Barbour, known as the "Craigslist Killers." In 2013, this newlywed couple, aged 19 and 22, lured 42-year-old Troy LaFerrara to his death through a Craigslist ad offering companionship.

We explore how the Barbours orchestrated their gruesome plan, with Miranda picking up LaFerrara while Elytte hid in the backseat. The couple's shocking act of violence - strangling and stabbing their victim over 20 times - sent shockwaves through Pennsylvania.

The episode covers the investigation that led to their swift arrest, Miranda's sensational claims of being a serial killer with 22 additional victims, and the skepticism these claims faced from authorities. We'll discuss the couple's traumatic backgrounds, their motives for this "thrill kill," and the legal proceedings that resulted in life sentences for both.

Join us as we unravel this tragic tale that serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers lurking in online interactions and the dark depths of human nature. The Barbour case raises unsettling questions about youth, violence, and the blurred lines between truth and attention-seeking in the digital age.
