Hello! Welcome to The Crime Talk. I started this blog to explore my interest in true crime. I cover solved and unsolved cases, as well as missing persons and strange mysteries.
I am an Artist and Digital Marketer and in my spare time I love watching true crime documentaries and reading crime books. I have always been interested in how the mind works, and that is what interests me when it comes to true crime. I want to know what it is that drives people to commit such crimes.
If you like true crime, mysteries and amateur writing then you have come to the right place.
I am always writing up new cases (1 per week for now), so if you want to read more, check back soon!
