In the summer of 2005, school teacher Jung Yu-Jin had just come back home from a long at work when he received a disturbing phone call. On the other end of the line was a plea from a desperate mother, calling to report that one of her daughter's friends had been assaulted at school, the very same one that Jung worked at - The Gwangju Inhwa for hearing-impaired students. Enraged, Jung spends the next few days reaching out to his colleagues and superiors at the school, only to be stone-walled at every turn. But what he didn't know, was that behind the silence, he was on the verge of uncovering something far more sinister.
**Thank you for tuning in to another successful year of Heinous. We will be taking a short break to recover, but will return with new episodes in mid-April**

In May of 2019, a man arrives at the house he had recently purchased only to find something bizarre. The house was sealed shut with multiple padlocks, and once inside, he would come across a large blue plastic water tank in the bedroom; that's when he saw it, strands of dark, matter hair, trapped beneath layers of hardened cement.
Part 1 - We follow the police as they unravel the bizarre findings in the house, and the discover the victims of the gruesome crime.
Part 2 - We dive deeper into the motive for the gruesome murder, and relay the events as they unfolded.

On the morning of 16 June, 2005, a cleaner was making his usual rounds along the banks of the Kallang River in Singapore when he spotted something odd in the water. At first, he dismissed it as just another piece of thrash, but when he picked it up, a severed torso fell out, leaving him in complete shock.
Part 1 - We follow the police investigation as they look into the grisly findings along the Kallang River, and its connections to a Chinese migrant named Liu Hong Mei, and her illicit lover Leong Siew Chor.
Part 2 - We dive deeper into the motive for the gruesome murder, and relay the events as they happened on that fateful June day in 2005.

In April 2023, police in South Korea responded to a call to find a horrific scene, the remains of a woman buried covered in a shallow grave. Further investigations would dig further into the rabbit hole, tracing the woman's dealings for a mysterious cryptocurrency company called P.U.R.E, as well as the swift manner in which the company's last known clients lost almost all of their savings.
Part 1 - We follow the police investigation as they first discover the body in the shallow grave, before diving deep into the connections with the cryptocurrency space.
Part 2 - We follow the suspects as they hatch their plan for revenge, and the brutal manner in which they executed it.

In late January 2020, 33 year old Le Quoc Tuan works his way through a maze of shophouses to partake in some alleyway gambling, specifically the popular local game of xóc đĩa, loosely translated as “shake the plate”. Despite a winning start, Tuan would start to go on a series of losses, eventually wiping him out. Undeterred, he would then leave momentarily to get some more money, but would come back with a rifle instead.
Part 1 - We delve into the events of the day as it unfolds, from the moment Le Quoc Tuan starts gambling, to when he shows up with a rifle.
Part 2 - We explore the bloody aftermath of Le Quoc Tuan's onslaught, as well as the manhunt that ensued to capture the vicious gunman.
