Jesse James Hollywood: The Killer Who Inspired Alpha Dog
Jesse James Hollywood had a name straight out of a movie, and eventually, it became one. The crime at the center of this story inspired the 2006 film Alpha Dog, but the real-life version is even more disturbing.
In this episode, we break down how a well-off kid from the San Fernando Valley went from selling weed to ordering a murder, before he could legally drink. It started with a $35,000 debt and a van. It ended with the killing of 15-year-old Nicholas Markowitz, and one of the most intense fugitive hunts of the early 2000s.
Over three days, Nicholas was kidnapped, dragged through parties like a lost prize, and walked to a grave that had already been dug.
This story is about control, cowardice, and how a whole group of people stood by while one teenager was marked for death. Jesse James Hollywood didn’t act alone—and that’s what makes it worse.
