About True Crime Reality

Truth is stranger than fiction...and reality tv stars know this better than anyone. They are personally intertwined with the world’s most extraordinary happenings, mysterious people and bizarre crimes than anyone else. The truth is, while being a reality star and putting their lives out there does have its perks, it also makes them an easy target and more susceptible to criminal behavior. That’s why so many reality stars have a story…it happened to them, their friend, their family…a house break-in, a hostage situation, adultery, kidnapping, armed robbery, financial scams, paternity fraud, identity theft and even murder. Each week on the ‘True Crime - Reality’ Caelynn Miller-Keyes (Bachelor) will be joined by a reality star as they dive deep into the details of a crime they have a direct connection to. The who, the what, the why and the what ‘were they thinking?!’ True Crime and all it’s darkest secrets, are about to get a taste of reality.

   Police Identify Body Found In A Barrel In Lake Mead, 40 Years After Murder

   More than four years after a barrel containing human remains was found at Lake Mead, investigators have identified the victim as Edward “Buddy” Jackson. Police say Jackson was shot once in the head and was believed to be in his mid to late 50s at the time of his murder. Jackson was last seen visiting family in Arkansas in the 1980s and has no known ties to the Vegas area. Jackson’s remains were among four bodies found in Lake Mead in 2022 after a massive drought exposed the skeletal remains.

   Hero Bystander Takes Out Teenaged School Shooter Who Shot And Killed 3 Children and a Teacher

   A 16-year-old Bend, Oregon resident shot through locked doors at an Oregon elementary school, and then shot and killed three children, ages 5, 8, and 11 along with a teacher. Remarkably, an armed community member saw the teen enter Silver Rail Elementary School with a long rifle and pursued him inside the school and shot him dead before police arrived. Another teacher and a 7-year-old student were critically injured and are currently in the hospital. Police say the heroic bystander saved countless lives, and credit him, along with a new classroom door lock system from keeping dozens of children and teachers safe.

[…] We know that he died from a bullet to the back of the head, but we don't know anything else about why he was in Vegas, who might have wanted him dead, and certainly who was responsible. He still was executed. He was executed. He was executed, and he's not alone. In May of 2022, so 2022 was a big year for finding bodies. In the outskirts of Vegas. Is that still was this one?
