A husband discovers his wife has been secretly communicating with their neighbor, and when he finally decides to leave, the story takes a horrifying turn.

Crimes Of Reddit is a Crime House Original Podcast, powered by PAVE Studios. Reddit is the last lawless place on the internet. No names. No rules. Just an endless archive of humanity’s most disturbing, bizarre, and deeply human stories, posted by the people who actually lived them. But it isn’t truly lawless. It runs on an unwritten code, where a thread full of strangers decides who was wrong and what happens next. Every Tuesday on Crimes of Reddit, co-hosts Sabrina Deana-Roga and Alexis Linkletter unpack the internet's strangest true crime stories. Each episode, they take turns bringing a story to the table — one comes prepped with the details, while the other hears it for the first time, reacting in real time with no prep, no spoilers, just the questions everyone's thinking. Back and forth, they pull at every thread until the whole twisted picture comes into view. It’s dark, it’s messy, and the scariest part is simple: THESE ARE STORIES POSTED BY REAL PEOPLE.
