I Fear You, Babe
I Fear You, Babe is a true crime podcast hosted by Dino Malvone, a New York-based storyteller who believes the most important part of any case isn't the crime — it's the person at the center of it.
Every Thursday, Dino goes deep on one case: the victim's life, the investigation, the failures, and the questions that remain. Every Monday, he covers what's moving in the true crime world right now — active trials, new arrests, verdicts, and developments that can't wait for a deep dive.
No gore. No sensationalism. No pretending to be a detective. Just careful research, honest storytelling, and a commitment to saying a person's name like it means something — because it does.
Before we talk about how they died, we talk about how they lived.

3. The Tesla Murders: When Technology Becomes Evidence

This is I Fear You, Babe.
A Tesla accelerates off Devil’s Slide in California.
Two parents are killed.
Three children survive.
At first, it looks like a tragic accident. Then the evidence begins to shift.
In this episode, we examine the case of Dharmesh Patel, a father accused of intentionally driving his family off a cliff. We walk through the investigation, the psychological evaluations, and the unsettling questions about image, pressure, and the private fractures that can exist inside seemingly intact families.
This is not a story about a moment of impact.
It’s about what leads someone to decide that survival isn’t the goal.
