\\nBrandi starts us off with the mysterious death of Dee Dee Jackson. Dee Dee was at her boyfriend\\u2019s house late one night in 1994 when she passed away. Her boyfriend, Don Bohana, told police that she\\u2019d drowned in his pool after a night of heavy drinking. But that explanation sounded fishy to Dee Dee\\u2019s family. They said that Dee Dee had never learned to swim. She was terrified of water. There was no way that she\\u2019d willingly gotten in the pool that night.
\\n
\\nThen Kristin tells a dark, old time-y tale that made a big impact on the justice system. The crew of the Mignonette was probably doomed from the start. The yacht wasn\\u2019t built for long, arduous voyages, but the crew had been paid to sail it nearly 15,000 miles. So they tried. When a wave did irreparable damage to the ship, it sank in less than five minutes. The crew of four managed to get on a lifeboat, but with no fresh water and just two tins of turnips, they knew they couldn\\u2019t last long. After approximately 20 days at sea, they resorted to cannibalism.

\\nAnd now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
