In November of 2000, the town of Chelsea, Massachusetts, was shocked when a dissected, headless corpse was found in a parking lot- her identity would remain unknown for 26 years. Then, Liz talks about the unfortunate death of 19-year-old Ricardo Rivera who was shot to death in October of 2015 in Hartford, Connecticut.

On this week’s episode of True Crime New England, join Katie and Liz as they discuss the horrible crime of Tyree Smith, a Bridgeport, Connecticut man who dealt with mental illness all of his adult life. In December of 2011, Tyree killed Angel Gonzalez with an axe and cannibalized some of his body. Tyree would later be found not guilty by reason of insanity and was sentenced to 60 years in a psychiatric facility. However, in February of 2025, Tyree was granted conditional release and has since been released after serving only 12 years of his sentence.

Join Katie and Liz on this week’s episode of True Crime New England where they discuss the murder of Roberta “Bobbie” Miller.
