132. The Stolen Life of Disabled, Elder, James Thomas Stewart Committed by Morgan Leppert and Toby Lowry

This episode is an older, short Patreon exclusive. I’ve been working on writing about a case for 4 days now. It is taking longer than expected BUT I didn’t want to leave you awesome listeners hanging this week!

If you think it’s okay to go to the door for kids who say they need help, these two will make you think twice. Morgan Leppert and Toby Lowry were banned from seeing each other ever again in 2008 by Morgan’s mom. To defy her rule, they came up with a plan. In the process, this meant (in their twisted minds) they had to murder an older disabled man, James Thomas Stewart.

Hosted by Paige Elmore, Reverie True Crime explores the unsettling space between quiet thought and grim reality. The title itself is a deliberate contrast-a reverie is often a peaceful daydream, but our minds don't always wander to safe places. This podcast delves into those shadowy corners of curiosity about the darkest human acts. Each episode is built on a foundation of thorough research, examining not just the facts of a case but the profound cultural and societal ripples that follow. You’ll hear detailed narratives of long-forgotten mysteries and contemporary injustices, always with an ear for the human stories at their core. Paige guides listeners through these complex tales with a measured and thoughtful approach, focusing on the lasting impacts on victims, families, and communities. The show sits at the intersection of several genres, offering news-worthy updates, cultural analysis, and deep societal reflection, all through the lens of true crime. It’s for anyone who has ever wondered about the how and why behind the headlines, seeking understanding rather than sensationalism. In this podcast, the aim is to satisfy that haunting curiosity with respect and depth, transforming a simple daydream into a meaningful examination of the world's harder truths.
