In this true crime story of Love and Murder: Heartbreak to Homicide, I tell you the case of Madison Schemitz, a 17-year-old whose life was forever changed by a brutal attack from her ex-boyfriend, Spencer Ross Pearson. On June 3, 2023, a lunch outing with her mother at Mr. Chubby's Wings turned into a nightmare when Spencer, despite a restraining order, followed Madison and her mother to the parking lot and viciously stabbed Madison 15 times. Madison's journey of recovery is nothing short of remarkable. Paralyzed from the chest down, she has shown immense strength and determination, achieving the ability to walk across the stage at her high school graduation. Her story of survival and advocacy against teen dating violence inspires many.Join us as we explore the details of this case, the impact on those involved, and the broader implications for mental health and relationship education. Share your thoughts on whether Spencer's sentence was just or if a mental health facility would have been more appropriate. Don't miss our December sale—50% off your first month on any Patreon tier!
