This is a site for true crime fans, about true crime fans.
We’re collaborating on a book release in time for CrimeCon 2024 in Nashville Tennessee AND working on a docuseries concept for one of the streaming services.
Our community is made up of true crime fans who travel to trials (or want to), listen to podcasts/watch court programming, are members of true crime Facebook groups, and actively engage in discussions on different platforms.
Some of you even attend true crime conventions and have a passion to solve the case through FOIA requests and other research methods.
Many true crime fans profiled in our book feel a personal connection to crime victims, family members and those accused due to situations that have happened in their lives.
We are Neil and Melissa Gordon.
Melissa became a true crime fan, when she traveled a few hours away from Augusta, GA to Walterboro, SC for the Alex Murdaugh trial.
She thought her purpose in going was to attend a trial that interested her and possibly work on producing a coffee table book of the Low Country.
What she discovered was an opportunity to heal from a trial she attended 25 years ago. Ironically, her Aunt’s husband was an attorney, who was also convicted of murder. It left her feeling anxious, ashamed and confused at all that happened during the trial and how much interest the community had in the case.
At the Murdaugh trial, her feelings came back as she felt empathy for Murdaugh family members, because of her experiences.
Neil became a true crime fan after Melissa’s chance meeting with Clerk of Court Becky Hill led to an opportunity for Neil to co-write Becky’s controversial memoir.
Now, the Gordons are teaming up with other "true crimers" to write chapters in an anthology book of short stories related to past and current trials.
This collection of stories is tentatively titled, TRIAL WATCHERS: America’s Obsession with Murder, Fraud, and True Crime from OJ Simpson and Casey Anthony to "Miss Becky" and Alex Murdaugh.
