Plus, Gumpenberger and Faria’s murders are directly connected, whether or not Hupp killed Faria or not. Gumpenberger was the only one who fell for it, and therefore the one Hupp killed to try and frame Russ Faria for going after her.Īgain, if we had our name dragged through the mud thanks to a murder case, we’d want to make it clear we’re not involved either. The whole reason behind Hupp’s murder of Gumpenberger is she faked being a Dateline producer, offering $1,000 if someone would reenact a 911 phone call for her. So, why does Dateline keep bringing Hupp up? While Hupp is serving life without chance of parole for her murder of Gumpenberger, Hupp technically faces no justice in either of the other cases. No, and the Missouri 11th Circuit Court ruled that neither evidence of Hupp’s involvement in Faria or Neumann’s murder could be used during her trial for Gumpenberger’s murder. Hupp also claimed she and Faria were in a sexual relationship, though backed down on that claim.ĭid Hupp get tried for either of these murders? It’s unclear what was suppose to happen with the money, but Hupp kept the money after Faria’s murder. Faria was diagnosed with breast cancer that turned terminal, and changed her life insurance policy to go to Hupp when she passed. In terms of Faria’s murder, Hupp has a very damning connection. Of course, they weren’t able to prove anything, but investigators still believe Shirley didn’t fall off a balcony on accident. Hupp was regarded as a suspect but never investigated in her mother Shirley’s death, but police reopened the case after she was charged for Gumpenberger’s murder. Well, when you already look like a suspect and then you’re charged with someone else’s murder, it makes sense you would become prime suspect one. How did Hupp get tied to Faria and Neumann’s murders? The story keeps reappearing, and now that police have officially reopened the investigation on Betsy Faria, it’s unlikely it’ll go away yet. Whether you’re listening to The Thing About Pam podcast that dives into Louis Gumpenberger’s murder, or two of the episodes “Game Night” and “Return to Game Night” on Dateline NBC, you know Pam Hupp’s name and case. With so many different stories relating to Hupp, it’s no wonder she’s just as popular as OJ and JonBenet Ramsey in the eyes of Keith Morrison and co. While Pam Hupp was only convicted of the murder of Louis Gumpenberger, many still believe that she was also responsible for the death of her mother Shirley Neumann and Betsy Faria. She’s been the subject of five separate episodes and an entire podcast. The Thing About Pam has easily become one of Dateline NBC ’s biggest pulls in terms of content, because Pam Hupp used Dateline as a tactic in her murder schemes. If we were involved in a true crime case, we’d never shut up about it either. By: Bethany Wade ‘Dateline’ NBC “The Thing About Pam”: The story that never ends
