The Case of Samuel Olson

The Misery Machine

This week, Yergy and Drewby head to Texas to discuss the tragic case of Samuel Olson, a little boy whose story has become all too common on this channel... A child is born, the parents separate, and then one (or both) of the parents get involved with a significant other who means nothing but harm to their child. In this case, Samuel's father, Dalton, became involved with a woman named Theresa Balboa. Theresa was no stranger to the court system, having already lost custody of her own children previously. However, in late May of 2021, Samuel went missing, and the last person to see him alive was Theresa. On June 2nd, police confirmed that Samuel's remains had been located inside of a plastic tote in Jasper, Texas. He'd been killed 17 days prior to his 6th birthday.
