Original Episode Description

When petty criminals panic… they run.

In this episode of

Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast

, Trevin and Amanda explore chaotic escape attempts, strange history, and petty crime stories where fleeing only makes things worse.

Trevin deals with a bedtime dilemma as his cat turns cuddles into sleep deprivation, while Amanda admits to driving on expired tags — despite constant pressure from the cops at her workplace.

Killer Facts highlights Dorothy Dietrich, a pioneering female escape artist known for performing a bullet catch with her teeth, while Trevin explores Jamtara, India — widely known as a hub for phishing scams and cybercrime.

Amanda’s story takes us to Muskegon Heights, Michigan, where Kendra Aney escalates a drug-related incident by breaking out of a police car in a desperate attempt to flee.

Trevin heads to Charleston, South Carolina, where a haunted carriage tour with Palmetto Carriage Works takes a bizarre turn when Nicole Wells’ encounter introduces something far less historical — and far more chaotic — than expected.

From prison breaks to panicked getaways, this episode proves running from the problem rarely ends well.
