Kelly Cochran | Killed and Dismembered her Husband and Ex-Lover | Police Interrogation

This is the grisly story of Kelly Cochran.

Born and raised in Merrillville, Indiana, Kelly and Jason Cochran were high school sweethearts and grew up next door to each other. They were so enamored with each other that they were married after Kelly Cochran graduated from high school in 2002 — and made a lifelong promise to kill anyone who they might cheat with.

Jason Cochran worked hard servicing swimming pools until his back gave out after 10 years of physical labor. While his wife tried hard to pay the bills, the debts kept piling up. The couple bailed on the situation for Caspian, Michigan, in 2013, also looking forward to legal marijuana, which would help ease Jason’s chronic pain.

Kelly Cochran met Christopher Regan at a factory job manufacturing Naval ship parts. An Air Force veteran and Detroit native, he and Cochran bonded and became lovers despite their 20-year age difference. Through his relationship with Cochran, Regan was also cheating on his girlfriend, Terri O’Donnell. They finally agreed to patch things up — the day that he died.

On Oct. 14, 2014, Regan planned to spend the night with Cochran — unaware she had spent the previous night arguing with her husband about him. Knowing it meant her lover’s death, Cochran invited him over and had sex with him as her husband shot him in the head. Neighbors heard a shot — then power tools.

O’Donnell reported Regan missing 10 days later, but the Cochrans had already dumped his remains in the woods. While they parked his car on the outskirts of town, they failed to notice a post-it note with directions to their house inside. Police were more observant and found the car, the note inside — and their suspects.

Police paid Kelly and Jason Cochran a visit, finding the former entirely at ease and the latter uncomfortable. They later questioned them separately. Kelly admitted to having an affair with Regan, but claimed she and her husband had an open marriage. Jason, meanwhile, appeared rather aggravated at her infidelity.

While the Cochrans had managed to remove all evidence of their crimes and the case went cold, an FBI search of their home in March 2015 prompted the terrified couple to leave town for Hobart, Indiana. It was there, on Feb. 20, 2016, that suspicions got the better of the couple — and Cochran murdered her husband

Kelly Cochran Gets Caught

When EMTs arrived at the Mississippi Street residence, they found Jason Cochran unresponsive, and Kelly was reportedly disruptive as they attempted to revive him. The EMTs declared Cochran’s husband dead of an overdose — unaware that she had deliberately overloaded his heroin fix, then smothered him for good measure.

Cochran held a memorial service days later, claiming it was “the hardest thing I will ever have to deal with” online while pawning off her belongings. She fled Indiana on April 26 without notifying relatives, and when the Hobart Medical Examiner realized Jason died of asphyxiation, she became a fugitive.

Her messages claimed she was hiding out on the West Coast in an attempt to throw police off-course. However, they simply tracked her phone to Kentucky. Finally, Cochran pointed cops to Regan’s remains and the murder weapon.
Kelly Cochran’s trial revealed that “she contemplated killing Jason instead of Chris.” She felt that he had killed “the only good thing I had in my life,” adding, “I still hate him, and yes, it was revenge. I evened the score.” While serving a life sentence for Regan’s death, she earned another 65 years in April 2018 for killing her husband.

Police said she only told her spouse about Regan when he declined a serious relationship, as the diabolical pact would ensure his death.

Ultimately, the full extent of Kelly Cochran’s crimes only began to reveal themselves while she was in prison. Once news got out that the couple had dismembered Christopher Regan, friends and neighbors came to the stomach-churning revelation that they had very likely eaten Regan’s barbecued remains at a cookout hosted by Cochran.

What's Your Coolest Story Of INSTANT KARMA In A Long-Term RELATIONSHIP?

What's Your Coolest Story Of INSTANT KARMA In A Long-Term RELATIONSHIP?Instant karma in a long-term relationship can be incredibly satisfying, whether it’s a cheating partner getting exposed, a manipulative person facing their own tactics, or someone finally realizing the value of what they lost.One example could be a partner who repeatedly took their significant other for granted—ignoring them, lying, or even cheating—only to be left when their partner finally had enough. Shortly after, they see their ex thrive, find real happiness, and move on to someone better, while they struggle with regret and loneliness.Another classic case of instant karma might be a manipulative partner trying to control the relationship, only to end up in a situation where they are the ones being left behind or outplayed in their own game.These stories often highlight poetic justice—where someone gets exactly what they deserve, sometimes even within moments or days of their bad actions.Keywords:Instant Karma, Long-Term Relationship, Breakup, Cheating, Manipulation, Poetic Justice, Relationship Revenge, Getting What They Deserve, Ex Regret, Moving On, Betrayal, Toxic Relationship, Personal Growth, Karmic Justice, Emotional PaybackBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-cheating-stories-2025--5953081/support.

People Who Have Been Catfished, How Did You Realize You Were Being Lied To?

People Who Have Been Catfished, How Did You Realize You Were Being Lied To?

People Who Have Been Catfished, How Did You Realize You Were Being Lied To?People who have been catfished often realize they’re being lied to in a variety of ways, and the stories behind it can be both heartbreaking and eye-opening. Here are some common signs people share when they realize they’ve been catfished:1. Avoiding Video Calls or In-Person MeetingsMany people catfishing others will make excuses to avoid showing their face in real-time, whether it’s through video calls or meeting up in person. They might say their camera is broken or that they’re “too busy” to meet up. A user might start to feel suspicious when this pattern continues.2. Inconsistencies in StoriesOver time, the catfish’s story might start to have inconsistencies. They might give conflicting details about their job, background, or personal life. Some even change their story multiple times, which makes it hard for the victim to keep up, eventually leading them to question what’s true.3. Suspicious PhotosA common red flag is when the person sends photos that seem too perfect or, on the flip side, appear to be taken from someone else's social media. Sometimes, the victim might find the same photos used in different places online, raising suspicions that the person isn't who they claim to be.4. Too Good to Be True Compliments or Over-the-Top AffectionWhen someone showers you with compliments too early or expresses extreme affection very quickly, it can sometimes feel “too perfect” and create a sense of urgency or dependency. This often makes the victim overlook warning signs because they are flattered or feel loved.5. Requests for Money or HelpA huge red flag in catfishing is when the other person asks for money, gifts, or help with something urgent—like a medical emergency, travel costs, or a “financial setback.” Victims might feel emotionally manipulated into helping someone they believe is real but who actually doesn’t exist.6. Over-Emotional ConnectionsSome people who are being catfished start to feel a deep emotional bond with the person they are talking to. When they realize something feels off, it can be hard to come to terms with the fact they may have been emotionally manipulated.7. Stalking or Trying to Find ThemEventually, many people get suspicious and try to search for more information about the person. They might look for social media profiles, reverse-image search their photos, or try to find common connections. Often, this leads to discovering that the person’s identity has been stolen or fabricated.Once they piece it together, they realize they’ve been catfished, which can be an emotional experience. It’s also a reminder to be cautious and protect your personal information when interacting online.Catfished, Online Dating, Red Flags, Video Calls, Inconsistencies, Suspicious Photos, Requests for Money, Emotional Manipulation, Fake Identity, Scams, Personal Safety, Social Media, Trust Issues, Manipulative Behavior, Relationship Warning SignsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-cheating-stories-2025--5953081/support.
