415: The Murder of Lita McClinton: From 20/20
<div>Around 8am, Lita McClinton's doorbell rang. She peered through the peephole and saw a delivery man with a huge bouquet of flowers. She opened the door excitedly, but she had been tricked. The delivery man pulled a gun and shot Lita twice in the face, killing he almost instantly. It would take nearly 20 years to find out who had killed this brilliant and vibrant woman and why they they did it. And even then, the answers would make little sense. <br> <br> <strong>LOOKING FOR MORE TCO?</strong> On our <a href="https://www.patreon.com/TrueCrimeObsessed">Patreon feed</a>, you'll find over 400 FULL AD-FREE BONUS episodes to <strong>BINGE RIGHT NOW</strong>,<strong> </strong>including our episode-by-episode coverage of popular documentary series like <strong><em>Love Has Won: The Cult of Mother God</em></strong><em>,</em><strong><em> LulaRich</em></strong><em>, </em>and<strong><em> The Curious Case of Natalia Grace</em></strong><em>; </em>classics like<strong><em> The Jinx</em></strong><em>,</em><strong><em> Making A Murderer</em></strong><em>, </em>and<strong> </strong><strong><em>The Staircase</em></strong><em>; </em>and well-known cases like<strong> </strong><strong><em>The Menendez Murders</em></strong><em>,</em><strong><em> Casey Anthony: American Murder Mystery</em></strong><em>, </em>and<strong> </strong><strong><em>The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann</em></strong><em>, </em>and so many more!<br> <br> <strong>Episode Sponsors:</strong> </div> <ul> <li> <a href="https://ancientnutrition.com/pages/tco?utm_source=podcastmcatco">Ancient Nutrition</a>: Ancient Nutrition is offering 25% off your first order when you go to <a href="http://www.AncientNutrition.com/TCO">www.AncientNutrition.com/TCO</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://go.helixsleep.com/audio-partner/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=audio&amp;utm_campaign=tco">Helix</a>:  Go to <a href="http://www.helixsleep.com/tco">www.helixsleep.com/tco</a> for  27% Off Sitewide plus 2 Free Dream Pillows with Mattress Purchase and a Free Bedding Bundle!</li> <li> <a href="https://www.shopify.com/pos/free-trial/sell-retail?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=audio&amp;utm_campaign=us-retail-na-awareness-2q24-en&amp;utm_term=obsessed&amp;utm_content=obsessed">Shopify</a>: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at <a href="http://www.shopify.com/obsessed">www.shopify.com/obsessed</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://cook.homechef.com/best-convenience?utm_campaign=1Q24podcast&amp;utm_source=podcastone&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;voucher=TCO">Home Chef</a>:  Go to <a href="http://www.homechef.com/TCO">www.HomeChef.com/TCO</a> for 18 Free Meals and Free Dessert for Life!</li> <li> <a href="https://greenlight.com/tco?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=host&amp;utm_campaign=veritone_tco">Greenlight</a>: Start your risk-free Greenlight trial today at <a href="http://www.greenlight.com/tco">www.greenlight.com/tco</a> </li> </ul> <div> <a href="https://www.patrickfails.com/">FAM!
