Twisted Travel and True Crime

It was undoubtedly one of the most horrific murders in Wilmington history. The body of a disemboweled woman was found in a wooded area off Shipyard Boulevard, February 22, 1990. It would turn out to be a 32-year old woman named Talana Kreeger.  This murder was called a hate crime and would lead to some fantastic changes in the way the LGBTQ community would be treated in Wilmington.  At the time there wasn't much news about her murder or about Talana as her friends were told that  they shouldn't mourn to publicly for her because she was gay and that shouldn't be in the news.  Let's change that.  DONATE: One time: https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3248826752172032881 Monthly: https://anchor.fm/twisted-travel-and-true-c/support Social Media Links: https://www.facebook.com/twistedtravelandtruecrime https://www.instagram.com/twistedtravelandtrue_crime https://www.tiktok.com/@twistedtravelandtruecrim?lang=en Gmail:  twistedtravelandtruecrime@gmail.com Research: https://www.wect.com/2021/08/30/crimes-cape-fear-man-gets-death-penalty-after-claiming-gay-panic-defense-brutal-murder/ http://www.socialworkersspeak.org/hollywood-connection/documentary-on-murder-of-talana-kreeger-to-raise-awareness-of-lgbt-hate-crimes.html https://www.parkviewproject.com/crime https://www.theassemblync.com/short-form/speaking-into-a-void/ https://law.justia.com/cases/north-carolina/supreme-court/1992/501a91-0.html --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/twisted-travel-and-true-c/support
