Michael Lawson
In 2018, 29-year-old Sarah Bramley broke up with her partner David Saunders and started
dating someone new.
Despite their relationship being over, Bramley reveled in the attention of both men and continued
contact with Saunders in what can only be described as a love-hate relationship with
messages exchanged between them ranging from caring to downright personal abuse.
Eventually, the toxic communication was taken too far when, on July the 1st, after hours
of furious texting, Bramley sent an explicit photo of her and her new lover, Michael Lawson,
to Saunders.
Scared that he would be enraged by the photo and come find her, Bramley then forced Lawson
onto the street and locked herself in her home.
The event unfolded as she’d expected and Saunders had immediately grabbed a taxi to
their location and went after Lawson.
After a short chase, he killed him in cold blood with a single stab wound straight to
his heart.
Saunders was caught and pled guilty to murder.
While he was sentenced to 22 and half years in prison for his part, the court considered
that Bramley had also played a role in the violent crime.
On top of initiating an act she knew would enrage Saunders as well as locking Lawson
out, the court heard how she egged Saunders on by saying “feel free to smack him”
after sending him an explicit photo.
Bramley pleaded guilty to inciting or assisting in the murder of Michael Lawson and was given
4 months in jail.

Shaun Dyson & Lucy-Anne Rushton
Mother-of-five Lucy-Anne Rushton was murdered by her husband Shaun Dyson, in June of 2019,
after the man went into a jealous rage.
Together for 4 years, before getting married in 2010, the couple had recently split with
Rushton trying to finally put behind her what had been a toxic and violent relationship.
The downward spiral of events started late in the evening, on June the 22nd, when Rushton
received a phone call from an ex-lover, which enraged Dyson.
A child in the home at the time reported that Dyson told Rushton to swallow her ring because
they were no longer together and was woken up in the middle of the night to the sound
of him beating her.
The brutal and prolonged attack consisted of Dyson stomping, kicking, and jumping on
Rushton as she lay defenseless and half-naked on her back.
After calling the police, in the early hours of June the 23rd, he disappeared for the next
10 hours and let paramedics find her lifeless body on the bed in her home, in Hampshire,
UK.
Dyson went on to message police, family, and friends to say that she died of drowning after
he’d thrown water on her, but an autopsy revealed Rushton had a broken sternum, two
collapsed lungs, and 37 fractures on her ribs.
He was found later hiding in a cupboard and was charged with her murder.
Two weeks into his trial he admitted guilt and was sentenced to a minimum of 17 years
behind bars.

Keith Rizzo & Neomi Smith
Described as “jealous and possessive” by the judge presiding over his trial, 23-year-old
Keith Rizzo was sentenced to 22 years in jail for brutally murdering his girlfriend, Neomi
Smith, who had danced with another man at a pub night out.
When the pair had started dating, in early 2019, Rizzo already had a domestic violence
conviction from an ex and continued down the same path with Smith, according to reports.
A week before her murder she’d confessed to a friend that he had choked her until she
passed out and that he had broken and thrown things at her in the past.
The night of the murder, a group of friends, including the couple, had gone down to a pub.
Eyewitness reports stated that the night turned sour when Rizzo smashed a table worth of glasses
and stormed out after spotting Smith dancing briefly with another man.
Assuring a friend there that she’d be safe to go home, she went back to their shared
apartment, alone, only for Rizzo to show up later and break down the door.
He played out his horrific attack with 2 knives which he used to stab her 32 times along with
choking her and inflicting dozens of blows.
The crime scene was described by paramedics “like a horror film” had taken place as
the carnage covered the entire kitchen.
Immediately Rizzo claimed two mysterious men had broken in and killed Smith over owed money
while he was in the shower.
The defense was questionable at best.
CCTV failed to show anyone matching their description entering the building and a number
of women came forward to give evidence of his abusive behavior.
Even a month after his conviction, a member of his defense team claimed that he still
“does not accept playing any part” in her murder.

Sammy-Lee Lodwig
A disturbing love triangle between a mother, her ex, and her daughter led to a gruesome
murder in Swansea, South Wales, in 2019.
After he was released from prison, in 2015, for previously stabbing someone, Jason Farrell
and Sarah Lodwig started an on-again-off-again relationship that ultimately didn’t last.
Unwilling to leave the family, the 49-year-old man began seeing Sarah’s daughter, Sammy-Lee,
whom Farrell had known since she was a young schoolgirl.
Despite seemingly having moved on with her younger counterpart, when Sarah got a new
partner, Farrell spiraled into a jealous rage and attacked the man with a wooden pole.
His rage unquenched by the attack, he then turned on 22-year-old Sammy-Lee.
He tied her up in his flat and proceeded to stab her face, throat, and chest 22 times
before fleeing the scene.
She died just 20-30 minutes before paramedics arrived to find her mutilated body covered
by a duvet.
Arrested later by armed police, Farrell asked for a pen and paper in which he chillingly
confessed to having “sliced her up”.
Even though he’d given a signed confession corroborated by physical evidence, at his
trial, Farrell pleaded not guilty on the basis that he’d been desensitized to violence
after spending years in prison.
The defense swayed neither the judge nor the jury and Farrell was given a life sentence
with a minimum of 26 years behind bars.

Cari Farver & Shanna Golyar
In 2012, Dave Kroupa moved to Omaha, Nebraska, for work, and started casually dating Shanna
“Liz” Golyar, whom he’d met online.
After leaving a long-term relationship, prior to his move, he made it clear he didn’t
want to be exclusive, which wasn’t an issue until 6 months later when he met Cari Farver.
The two got along really well, but mutually decided to keep it casual until, only a few
weeks down the line, Kroupa received a breakup text from her number.
She was reported missing, a few days later, by her mother after last seen leaving his
house by Golyar.
The case went cold, but to everyone’s surprise, her Facebook page was still active.
For the next 4 years, Kroupa would be continuously harassed by Farver, receiving 60 plus texts
and 100 plus emails a day despite him changing his number multiple times.
Golyar, who he’d continued to see on occasion, also received messages as well as Farver’s
mother and his ex, but still, no one had seen or even heard her voice.
Threatening messages turned to vandalism when Kroupa’s work was targeted and Golyar’s
house was burned down, killing her family pets.
Golyar had told police she suspected it was Farver, but the case remained cold until 2015
when a new team of investigators volunteered to take it on.
Their investigation and intuition soon pointed them to Golyar and, using IP addresses and
cell phone data, they discovered she had upwards of 30 fake emails using Farver’s name and
had a messaging app that allowed her to schedule future texts.
The amount was shocking with Golyar likely spending 40-50 hours a week impersonating
Farver and stalking her contacts.
In the end, despite graphic detailing of the murder by Golyar pretending to be someone
else over email, no body nor any murder weapon was ever discovered.
Golyar was still found guilty of first-degree murder and was sentenced to life in prison
in 2017, 5 years after it all began.

Angelikque Sutton
In 2015, 24-year-old Ashleigh Wade wanted a child so badly that she contrived a fake
pregnancy and committed to convincing friends, family, and her boyfriend.
Posting about it to social media, she reconnected with her former friend, Angelikque Sutton,
who was also pregnant at the time.
They bonded over their pregnancies and Wade invited Sutton over, on November the 20th,
to give her a gift for her wedding, which was later that day.
But the seemingly innocent invitation was actually a ruse as Wade was jealous of Sutton’s
baby and wanted it for herself.
Upon her arrival, Wade attacked Sutton, slashing her larynx so she couldn’t scream before
stabbing her face and neck upwards of 50 times.
Keeping the injuries from the neck up, Wade then went for her abdomen and cut her baby
out using a paring knife.
Once in her arms, she wrapped it up, fed it formula, and pretended as though she had just
given birth.
Sutton bled out and Wade was immediately caught.
In statements made by Wade in the aftermath, she claimed to truly believe that the baby,
once in her arms, was hers and that she’d rescued it after her own imagined baby had
died.
The calculated attack by Wade and precise extraction kept baby Jenasis alive.
In a trial that lasted almost 2 weeks, she was convicted of second-degree murder and
kidnapping and received a 40-year sentence.

Jonathan Amerault
Suspecting his wife, Britany, was having an affair, after going through her phone in September
of 2020, Armando Barron from New Hampshire, US, went on a jealous rampage.
First choking out his wife until she passed out, he proceeded to lure her suspected lover,
Jonathan Amerault, to a park where he violently attacked him.
Barron forced his wife to cut his wrists before fatally shooting him in the back of his car.
Amerault’s body was then taken to a campsite where Barron allegedly forced his wife, at
gunpoint, to decapitate the body before wrapping it in a tarp and hiding it.
Amerault’s body and Britany were found together at the campsite by police when both failed
to show up at work.
Working with police, Britany, her face covered with bruises, confessed to the gruesome chain
of events.
Armando was charged with capital murder and kidnapping which carried a life sentence without
parole while his wife was indicted on 3 counts of falsifying physical evidence.
