Sidetrack Sleuth
I’m Jessica — a lifelong true crime enthusiast with a curious mind, a lot of opinions, and a tendency to get sidetracked. Every week, I walk you through a fascinating case and the stories behind it, then let the conversation wander into unexpected territory — because crime doesn’t happen in a vacuum, and neither do our thoughts.
From cold cases and courtroom drama to celebrity scandals, pop culture hot takes, political messes, and whatever’s trending on my For You page, nothing is off-limits. I’ll wrap things up with The Lead — my weekly recommendation you didn’t know you needed — and occasionally drag a guest into The Depositions for their testimony on all things crime and chaos.
Think of it as your smartest, most unhinged group chat come to life — equal parts investigative deep dive and oversharing bestie energy. If you love true crime and a good tangent, you’re in the right place.

Episode 25: The Martens Corbett Family
Hi Sleuths! Have you ever wished Jessica's goldendoodles would be more vocal while we record? If so, this is the episode for you ;)
This episode is a total Jessica case... twist and turns leaving you unsure how you feel. Jason Corbett died at the hands of his wife and father in law, was it self defense? What was happening inside their home in Meadowlands?
