Sistas Who Kill Podcast
Hosted by Sistas Who Kill
Two high school friends research and narrate stories of Black women who have committed murder, blending true crime with social justice commentary.
This is a narrative true-crime podcast with a specific and underserved focus: Black women who kill. Hosts MaRah and Taz operate like best friends chatting, but their casual tone is backed by deep-dive research that often involves pulling records. Each episode dissects a single case, exploring the perpetrator's backstory, the crime itself, and the societal factors or systemic failures that may have played a role.
“Unlike many true-crime podcasts that focus on victims, "Sistas Who Kill" centers the stories of the perpetrators, specifically Black women. Their signature segment, "I ain't do it, but if I did...", adds a unique, speculative, and humorous layer to the otherwise serious subject matter.”
Who hosts this show
Best friends MaRah Williams and Taz host "Sistas Who Kill," a weekly true-crime podcast started in 2020 that focuses exclusively on cases involving Black women as perpetrators. The two met in high school and turned their passion for discussing true crime into a full-time job. The show examines the crimes, the legal outcomes, and how the justice system treats Black women differently from their white counterparts.
