The Lisa Boldridge Case: Manipulation, Obsession, and Murder

JUL 2, 202523 MIN

Description

<p>This week, I’m stepping away from our usual format to bring you a more candid, off-the-cuff exploration of a case that stayed with me—one that didn’t make national headlines but absolutely should have.</p> <p>Lisa Boldridge didn’t fire the gun that killed her ex-husband, Kurt—but prosecutors say she planned every detail. From years of harassment and arson to manipulating her son’s father into pulling the trigger, this case is a disturbing look at how far one woman would go to regain control.</p> <p>We’ll unpack the tangled relationships, veiled threats, and the cold logic behind a calculated murder—and explore whether justice was truly served.</p> <p><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f399.png" alt="🎙" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> If you like this style of storytelling, let me know by rating the episode or dropping a comment on Spotify or social media.
