Show Notes
Four young men disappear in Bucks County, Pennsylvania after setting out to buy marijuana. What police called a drug deal gone wrong soon turns into one of the most disturbing true crime cases in Pennsylvania history.
In this episode of Crimery, host Tim Novotney goes deep into the Cosmo DiNardo case, the murders of Jimi Patrick, Dean Finocchiaro, Tom Meo, and Mark Sturgis, and the terrifying question at the center of it all: was this really just a failed weed deal, or was something much darker happening on that 90-acre family farm?
This is the case of the Pig Roaster Murders — a wealthy Bucks County family, a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic son with dozens of police contacts, a missed warrant, a backhoe, a burn tank, and four victims who never should have died.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
- How Cosmo DiNardo lured four young men to his family’s Bucks County farm
- Why the official “drug deal gone wrong” theory doesn’t fully explain the killings
- The role of Sean Kratz and the confession tapes that shocked Pennsylvania
- How a missed gun warrant may have changed everything
- Why this case says as much about money, privilege, and system failure as it does about murder
