Welcome back, Spooky Squad, to another episode of Scream and Sugar. Today we unravel the sinister story of Dorothea Puente, the "Deathhouse Landlady" - who we like to call Landlady Death - who turned her unassuming boarding house in Sacramento (what up, sister city!) into a house of horrors.
Beneath her kind, grandmotherly exterior, Puente orchestrated a shocking scheme of manipulation, theft, and murder that targeted society's most vulnerable. Her crimes came to light in the 1980s, but the darkness surrounding her story runs much deeper.
Join us as we peel back the layers of this true crime classic. From Dorothea's troubled past and her ability to deceive even the most watchful eyes to the grisly discoveries buried—quite literally—in her backyard, we dive into how she evaded suspicion for so long and the trial that cemented her as one of America's most notorious female serial killers.
Today we are talking about the importance of social work and community relations, as well as referencing a fantastic food spot (Candace's Fave!), Lupita's Mexican Restaurant and Bar.
So grab your coffee (or ceviche?), settle in, and remember to stay spooky, ya'll!
