What Cries Out
We are a monthly Mother-Daughter True Crime Podcast. Each month we will focus on a case that cries out to us. What brings an individual to the precipice of darkness? Can we make sense of societies darkest edges? Sometimes we share generationally opposing views or push our own minds to that edge, but we do this to bring souls into remembrance all while bringing a social issue to light... This is What Cries Out.

Dark Descent: The Case of Austin Harrouff
This case centers around a young man who was a good student and an athlete. Known as a good-hearted individual, perhaps a bit quirky, he had never found himself in trouble. Yet, the act he would commit would send shockwaves through his community and the world, an act of unimaginable horror. This once promising student suddenly found himself at the center of a gruesome crime that left two people dead and another injured. The most chilling detail? He was discovered attempting to consume the face of one of his victims.
What could drive someone from such a promising path to the depths of such brutality? Was it the shadow of mental illness, lurking unseen until it erupted in violence? Could his history of drug use have played a role, warping his mind and actions? Or was there a darker, more sinister force at play—something beyond the realm of science and reason? Welcome to Episode 45- Dark Descent: The Case of Austin Harrouff.
