Hi everyone!
Some of you may have this on our Instagram but for those who haven't, we just wanted to let you know that we are going to be taking two weeks off from uploading - our last week off was August last year and we wanted to take some time to recharge our batteries.
We still have some podcast-exclusive episodes coming out which were already made and they will be popping up soon.
Thanks so much for all the support and we will see you in a couple of weeks!🖤
Hey all,
We realised we hadn't done a Happy New Year post year - so a belated Happy New Year to everyone! Thank you for all the lovely messages and well wishes, we really appreciate them! 🖤
So, a lot of you ask if we'll ever make two videos a week, and while we can't do that right now (it takes our entire week to get one edited and through YT's check, as well as making an extra exclusive episode over on our Patreon) - we are now going to be uploading an extra 1 or 2 episodes a month on our podcast. For anyone who doesn't know, we upload the audio of our episodes to all the podcasting platforms for those who like to listen on the go.
These extra episodes aren't going to be behind a paywall or anything, they'll just be extra cases that go live throughout the month that are audio only :) Here are some links to our podcasting platforms:

We're also now up to 28 exclusive episodes on our Patreon, as well as behind-the-scenes and early access for £2 a month. Here is a link to our Patreon: www.patreon.com/TrulyCriminal1
Thank you everyone for your ongoing support and messages, roll on 2024! 🖤
See you next Saturday for our latest video where we will be looking at a crime from the United Kingdom, see you all then 🖤
Hi Everyone!
Happy Halloween for tomorrow if you're doing anything for it! 🎃
We have two video's for you this week. One on Saturday as usual, and one coming out on Wednesday.
Our Wednesday video is a little different, as we have actually teamed up with Naomi Channell who has a podcast called Real (we're almost sure a lot of you will listen to her already, she is brilliant and her podcast is fab)
podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/real/id1616514570
open.spotify.com/show/7unyERZM8nLViz22JOzH0w
The episode will be released on the 20th anniversary of a disappearance in the U.K., one that has both captured and baffled the public and media ever since.
We all went on location together, to film our own footage, and talk to some of the people involved, and people that are actively still working on the case.
Naomi has a 10 part podcast coming out alongside our video (on the same day) which is a real deep dive, with loads of interviews as well.
See you this Wednesday at 4pm (BST) and Saturday 7pm (BST)

Hey all!
Just a quick one to say we will be taking a couple of weeks off from uploading 😪
Mia is getting married this weekend and as you can imagine it is HECTIC! So we just need some time to enjoy the celebrations and then catch back up with the videos!
(We might be able to claw it back for next weekend but we shall see!)
Thank you everyone for always being amazing, supportive and wonderful.
Lots of love to you all 🖤
Big case update!
In 2021, we covered the case of Alicia Navarro, a 14-year-old who went missing from her home 4 years ago, in Glendale, Arizona.
Unbelievably, yesterday, Alicia walked into a police station and identified herself. This was 2000 miles away from her house. The police say she seems “in good health and happy”, and we wanted to share the news with you all while we await more information.
To have some degree of closure and the outcome we were all hoping for is extraordinary and we will keep you updated with anymore developments!

Hey everyone!
Hope you're doing well! If you're here in the U.K with us, we hope you're coping with the heat okay! (we are not haha)
It feels like a minute since we did a premiered video, so we’re going to make Saturday’s episode one.
Same time as normal (7pm BST) but we can watch along with you in the chat box, and hear your thoughts as we go!
This case gripped the world and will actually take us across three provinces in Canada, back to the not so distant summer of 2019.
We know some of you will definitely know it, it sure got some media attention, but it is one that we’ve personally wanted to cover for a while, and we hope that even if you know it, you find our coverage interesting.
(The next few cases we don’t think are as well known, so it’s always good to mix it up.)
And a massive thank you to everyone that has recently signed up to our Patreon. It means so much to us and we just wanted to acknowledge you all. As many of you that support other true crime content creators will well know, we’re all often met with monetisation issues due to the nature of the content, so having everyone offer their support to us our via Patreon really does make a difference and does not go unnoticed.
We’re now up to 22 exclusive episodes on there, and lots of BTS.

Have a lovely rest of your week, and we hope to see you on our channel at 7pm BST on Saturday!
🖤
Hey all!
Just a quick one to let you know that we won't be uploading a video this week on Saturday as normal. We've both been unwell but we're thankfully on the mend now. We're going to take the week off to get back on track and we will be back the first week of May!
Hope you have a great week 🖤
TRISTYN BAILEY: CASE UPDATE;
As most of you will know, back in 2021, we covered the case of 13 year old Tristyn Bailey.(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsMnQ...)
On May 9th, 2021, Tristyn was reported missing by her family, and shortly after, she was found dead in the woods near her home. She had been stabbed over 100 times.
Police quickly announced they had made an arrest - a 14 year old classmate called Aiden Fucci, and given all the evidence against him, he was charged with her murder.
On February 6th 2023, the same day jury selection was scheduled to begin in his murder trial, Aiden (who is now 16) changed his plea, to guilty of first degree murder.
Given the fact he was set to be tried as an adult, he now faces a possible life sentence with a minimum of 40 years. We will keep you posted on the sentencing.

Hi all,
We’re so excited to share that we finally got the numbers through from the merchandise company, so we have been able to make our charity donation today!
It took longer than we thought to get the numbers, as all the packaging, shipping, warehouse and staffing costs on their end needed to be taken into account and deducted etc!
(We’ve also matched the total figure and put some extra in as well, to get it to a good round number.)
£1500 has now been donated to ‘Victim Support’ - an amazing England and Wales-based charity that supports victims of crime and traumatic incidents.
They provide specialist help to support people to cope and move on to the point where they feel they are back on track with their lives as best they can. You can talk to them regardless of if you’ve reported the crime to the police or not. They can also support you without the involvement of the criminal justice system and they won’t share any information unless they feel someone is at risk.
They are here just to support people.
www.victimsupport.org.uk/
Speaking of support, thank you to all of you that supported us with this!
We hope you all love your clothing and we’re already looking forward to the next wave, and making some more money for charity!
Our new video will be out on Saturday, at the usual time, and we’re in the UK again for this one! (We know a lot of you wanted more UK-based cases, and as always we’re getting through a very long list of recommendations!)
Thanks again, everyone!

Hi everyone!
A new video will be up tonight as usual, and today we’re in the Midlands city of Leicester. We were actually able to film on location and film our own stock footage for this specific case which was new territory for us, but it is something we want to do more of where possible. We’re hoping this will give our videos so much more and we’re ready to really challenge ourselves more.
We’re ready for 2023 in a big way and we’re so happy to have you all in this journey with us 🖤
See you tonight!
