20 JUN 2023 · TRIGGER WARNING!
This episode is dark and depressing so listen with caution! December 15, 1927 was a normal day at Mount Vernon Junior High School in L.A. until a strange man walked in and convinced the school that he was there to pick up little Marion Parker.
Who was this man and did he have connections to the Parker family? We discuss the timeline, the horrific events, and of course, the motive.

13 JUN 2023 · From the outside, Forrest Teel's life looked perfect. He's got a wonderful family, a nice car, and making good money as the executive for Eli Lilly. Not everything was perfect though, he was having a VERY long affair with not one, but two women.
In 1958 his mistress, Connie Nichols, had enough and was ready to end her 15 year affair with him. That night, her gun accidentally went off killing Forrest Teel in his car. Was this really accident or was it self-defense?

8 JUN 2023 · This one is a doozy so listen with caution!
Between 1991 and 1996 over 24 women were murdered and discovered years later in New Orleans. When the alledged killer, "Clay," calls in to the Howard Stern show in 1997, that's when pieces of this 24 year-old cold case starts to come together. Listening to the timeline, it will still make you question if "Clay" was the person who killed all of these women or was someone else involved.

18 APR 2023 · We got another baffling case for you this week!
On the night of November 17, 1978 in Speedway, Indiana, four Burger Chef employees went missing after closing time. Police at first thought it was your typical robbery, but when the employees Jayne Friedt, Daniel Davis, Mark Flemmonds, and Ruth Ellen Shelton were found dead near a wooded area, that's when the case changed. Who murdered these teens? Was it just a robbery gone wrong or something more?

11 APR 2023 · On September 20, 1988, Tara Calico went out for her daily bike ride on the New Mexico State Road 47 (she biked 36 miles by the way!) and never made it home. Her walkman was found on the side of the road, but Tara and the bike were missing. Then, in June of 1989, a polaroid of a young female and a young boy were found in a parking lot of a convenience store. Was the young female in the terrifying polaroid Tara? Who is responsible for her disappearance?
