On a beautiful day in sunny Sydney, Australia, Renae Marsden made her way to Jacob’s Ladder - a lookout in Watsons Bay's oceanside suburb.  It was the 5th of August, 2013, and Renae was just a couple months shy of her 21st birthday. Climbing up a cliff known as “The Gap”, Renae stared into the crashing waves below.  It had been a devastating day, after her boyfriend, Brayden Spiteri, sent her a text that read, “I think I need a break, and so do you.”  Renae then sent a few texts back, including one to her mother, telling her she loved her and was sorry.  She then threw her phone into the ocean. Minutes later, Renae followed her phone over the cliff's edge.

Episode 221 - Richard Craniums - The Murder of Nicole VanderHeyden

Imagine you’re accused of a murder you didn’t commit. What's the worst alibi you could possibly have?  It's the one with no eyewitnesses, right? It's the one that’s impossible to prove and might even seem a bit too convenient. Now, picture your dread as a detective leans in across the interrogation table and asks, "Where were you on the morning of “such and such a date”, between 3 and 6 in the morning?"  Your heart sinks cause your only answer is the honest one: "I was at home, asleep all night in bed by myself." It’s an alibi like this that can put a person in the hot seat even if they ARE telling the truth.

The concept of an "evil twin" is something that’s fascinated and terrified human beings for millenia: a twin or doppelgänger who embodies the polar opposite of a person.

Episode 210 - Selfie Slayer - The Case of Amanda Taylor

Imagine stepping out to your mailbox one morning, only to discover an envelope addressed to you from a notorious serial killer who has been locked away since the 80s. Inside the envelope, you're relieved not to find any grisly mementos; but instead find a birthday card for your infant child along with a handwritten message complimenting you on your beautiful family. Some might argue that such a message would be just as horrifying as receiving a severed finger or lock of hair. Either way, for most people, receiving anything in the mail from a serial killer would be abnormal.

Episode 209 - Honeymoon Hijacking - The Murder Of Anni Dewani

A newlywed couple’s honeymoon is supposed to be the happiest time of their lives - their first chance to introduce themselves as spouses to the world. Embarking on a journey of love, adventure, and discovery together. Comedian Mike Binder described Honeymoons as “A short period of doting between dating and debting” It's one of those things that’s funny because for many of us…it’s true One way to avoid the “debt” part, of course, is to marry a millionaire. Which is exactly what Swedish citizen Anni Dewani had done, in the fall of 2010.

Episode 208 - Doctor Of Death - A Serial Killer In Omaha

Throughout the early 2000s, there was a particular man who believed he’d been severely wronged: treated unfairly and unjustly by a certain group of people….  Day after day, these perceived offenses continued eating away at him and he constantly blamed others for everything wrong in his life, which had fallen into utter shambles.  Ultimately consumed by his rage, he decided to take revenge against everyone he believed had done him wrong. And it was no shortlist.

Episode 201 - Who Killed Jennifer? - A Son’s Quest For Answers

Andres Shirm spent his entire childhood terrified of a man his family thought was responsible for his mother - Jennifer Lynn Shirm's disappearance. Even the site of the man’s photo sent Andy into full-on panic attacks. Although he'd eventually learn that his mother hadn't just been taken - she'd been murdered, it wouldn't be until decades later that he'd learn that the man he'd been afraid of all those years, hadn’t been his mother's murderer at all. Over the years, police identified several suspects in Jennifer's murder investigation - even making two arrests. Yet still, close to 40 years later, the question still remains, "Who killed Jennifer?"

Episode 200 - Jeffrey Willis - The Monster Of Muskegon County

In 2016, April 16th was the first perfect day of spring in rural Muskegon County Michigan. By 9:00 that Saturday morning, it was 62 degrees and already the warmest day of the season by far. And 53-year-old Dawn Schmidt was among those taking advantage of these glorious conditions. Making herself a steaming cup of morning coffee, she carried it outside to her back deck and sipped away, staring at the forest, and enjoying the refreshing sunshine. But then…she heard something strange.

Episode 199 - The Multiverse Of A Workplace Crush

Our homes are more than just physical structures; they’re our sanctuaries, providing a safe refuge from the outside world. But imagine if someone had meticulously written a 250-page manifesto, obsessively determined to breach that sanctuary? Someone so consumed with rage over a perceived wrongdoing from years earlier, that deadbolts and alarms would do nothing to stop him from carrying out his mission to exact revenge.

Episode 195 - Nova Scotia Nightmare - Inside Canada’s Deadliest Mass Shooting

On the cold spring morning of April 19, 2020, a woman staggered from the woods outside Portapique Nova Scotia. Her bare feet were blackened from running through the woods, and she was covered in scrapes and bruises. She hammered on the door of a neighbor, who let her inside and called 911. She told police something had finally snapped in her abusive common-law partner Gabriel Wortman. But by the time she made that phone call, he’d already murdered 13 people and his rampage was far from over.

Episode 193 - Deceit in Derby - Unraveling the Mystery Behind The Philpott Fire

In May 2012, a man named Mick Philpott stepped up to the mic, at a small pub tucked away in a corner of Derby, England. Wearing a fedora and sunglasses, Mick picked up the microphone and waited for a few beats before belting out the legendary lyrics, "We're caught in a trap. I can't walk out." As Mick's wife giggled at the back of the pub, Mick poured himself into the Elvis song "Suspicious Minds" apparently unable to read the room. In the fairly tight-knit town, (where Mick was practically known by everyone), the seemingly harmless karaoke gig held a dark irony.

On the morning of January 17th, 2012, Lauren Kornberg, (a dog walker), and her mother, embarked on a trail in the direction of the iconic Hollywood Hills sign, accompanied by a pack of 9 furry companions. But as the mother and daughter meandered along the trail, a Golden Retriever in the group, suddenly bolted off, with a high pitch bark and started digging frantically. When the faithful Goldie finally emerged from the underbrush, he proudly carried back something in his mouth - a bag…that concealed a horrifying discovery.

Episode 189 - Escape from Reality - The Case of Barbara Rogers & Stephen Mineo

What’s the first thing you think of when you hear the word “cult?”. That one word alone paints a picture of constant surveillance, suffocating conformity, and a community that hates to let anyone go. For some people caught up in cult-like circumstances, finding a way out can be a dangerous undertaking. But what if a cult was the source of where you found all your meaning, all your connections in life and it had been that way for years? In this scenario, finding yourself on the outside looking in, could be the real nightmare. That’s what happened to Stephen Mineo and Barbara Rogers when they crossed paths with Internet cult leader Sherry Shriner, a woman who weaponized a strange mythology of reptilians, clones, vampires, and demons against her own followers.

Episode 188 - A Mother’s Worst Nightmare - The Murder Of Shad Thyrion

In the dark morning hours of February 23rd, 2022, in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Tara Pakanich was awakened by a loud bang. Warm under her blankets, still groggy from a sound sleep, the startling noise seemed like it could’ve been only one thing: the storm door. As Tara got out of bed to investigate, she noticed the lights still on in the basement, where her 24-year-old son, Shad Thyrion, had been hanging out for the last couple of days. But no one was down there now. As she headed back up the basement stairs, something strange suddenly caught her eye: a bucket with a beach towel draped over top.

In May 2009, two complete strangers met on a train traveling between Charleston, South Carolina and Washington D.C. The two strangers were both women, close in age, one was 28, the other 30. The slightly older woman had the misfortune of having her wallet stolen, and so the other woman opened up her own and lent some money to the perfect stranger. This random act of kindness would take both women down a very dark and sinister path.

Episode 184 - Standing Her Ground - The Case of Brittany Smith

On a snowy January night in 2018, while most people were fast asleep and still enveloped in their post-holiday glow, the crack of a pistol shattered the silence of the frigid air. In a cozy little home in Stevenson, Alabama, a man had just been shot. Once. Twice. And then a third time before he fell. As he lay bleeding on the kitchen floor and as his shooter worked frantically to save his life, no one could be prepared for the harrowing events that were about to unfold.

Listen Now - Agent of Betrayal: The Double Life of Robert Hanssen

Here’s a preview of a new podcast I think you’ll enjoy. Amid the nuclear threat of the Cold War, America's prized secrets were falling into the hands of its sworn enemy, the Kremlin. The FBI's hunt for the leak led to an astonishing discovery—the mole was one of its own, special agent Robert Hanssen. For two decades, Hanssen masqueraded as a devoted patriot while ruthlessly selling out his country, trading classified intelligence to the Soviet Union and later Russia, in exchange for cash and diamonds.  He was a whirlwind of contradictions—a self-proclaimed patriot and a traitor; a family man who sexually betrayed his wife; an ardent man of God and a sinner.  In this CBS News limited series, CBS News Chief Washington Correspondent Major Garrett delves into the shocking contradictions and life of Robert Hanssen, whose impact shaped U.S intelligence history. Listen to Agent of Betrayal: The Double Life of Robert Hanssen wherever you get your podcasts.

But in the early morning hours of April 3rd, 2013, two people pulled into the Osteen cemetery in Deltona Florida to have a little chat…only one of them left alive.

And although Sasha was living in an entirely different state, her parents felt their daughter was safe, living in a peaceful community of Mennonites. There was no way Sasha’s family, the community she was living in, or for Sasha herself to know, a predator was on the lookout, for someone just like her.

Episode 170 - Unlikely Assassins - The Case Of Ellen Friar

It was a cool fall morning in Medford, Oregon when police picked up three young runaways by the side of the road. 19-year-old Gavin MacFarlane, a high school dropout, his girlfriend, 15-year-old Ellen Friar, and their mutual friend 22-year-old, Russell Pierce Jones II, a young man with a criminal record and a history of mental illness. From the back of the police cruiser, Russell made cryptic comments about being the couple’s “protector.” Ellen and Gavin claimed they’d run away because Ellen’s parents disapproved of their age difference; back at home, Ellen’s younger sisters had a very different story to tell.

Listen Now: Suspect "Five Shots in the Dark"

Leon Benson spent more than half of his life, a total of 24 years, in an Indiana state prison for a murder he didn't commit. Despite the lack of physical evidence and a questionable eyewitness identification, he was convicted. But new realities start to come to light when attorney Lara Bazelon takes up his case and is determined to secure Benson's release. Season three of Suspect, co-produced by Campside Media and Wondery, delves into the flaws in the criminal justice system that led to Benson's wrongful conviction for the 1998 shooting of Kasey Schoen in Indianapolis. The investigation aims to uncover the truth about who really committed the crime and why the eyewitness testimony that led to Benson's conviction was so shaky. Host Matthew Shaer joins co-producer and writer Bazelon to take a deep dive into the nature of memory and how it can be fallible and result in an innocent man's life being wasted, while the real perpetrator remains unpunished. As the investigation unfolds, will Bazelon and her team gather enough evidence to free Benson? And what will happen to Schoen’s real killer?

52-year-old Rick Post was bound to a chair, inside the shower stall of an abandoned house. His mouth was duct-taped shut. Even if he could scream, no one would hear him. His abductors paced back and forth flashing their instruments of torture. He’d been in this Tijuana dungeon for five days, subjected to relentless rounds of violent beatings. They’d also done a number on his fingers with a set of pliers. You’ll hear about jealousy, vengeance, tainted love, and paranoia. A story that veers wildly to the edge of believability.....and then some.

Episode 152 - Voodoo Divorce - The Mysterious Deaths Of Scott Dell & Nancy Fillmore

A bottle of wine, nostalgic love songs and a late night phone call with an ex. It’s a relatable scene for many and one that Scott Dell found himself in, on a wintery night, in Killaloe, Ontario back in 1995. On the phone was the love of his life, his ex Cherrylle. The wine went down easy, perhaps too easy and Scott scribbled out hopeful notes as the conversation went on for hours, and for Scott, the air in his log farmhouse crackled with the hope of reconciliation. A reconciliation that would never happen.

Wondery Presents: Frozen Head

Hosted by Ash Kelley and Alaina Urquhart from the hit show Morbid. When 90-year-old Laurence Pilgeram drops dead on the sidewalk outside his condo, you might think that’s the end of his story. But, really, it’s just the beginning. Because Laurence and others like him have signed up to be frozen and brought back to life in the future. And that belief will pull multiple generations of the Pilgeram family into a cryonics soap opera filled with dead pets, gold coins, grenades, fist fights, mysterious packages, family feuds, Hall of Fame baseball legends, and frozen heads — lots of frozen heads. From Wondery, comes a story about life, death, and what comes next. Follow Frozen Head on Amazon Music or wherever you get your podcasts.

Episode 147 - The Disappearance of Brittany Tavar

It was a date Brittany Tavar had been preparing for, for over a year, July 7th, 2010. The day she planned to stand before a judge at the St. Augustine, Florida courthouse, to present evidence that would hopefully grant her request for a permanent restraining order against her nemesis. A neighbor and former friend. Brittany told friends she’d been building the case against her neighbor out of fear, fear for her safety. So when she never showed up at the courthouse that day, those who loved Brittany knew something was wrong.

Introducing SUSPECT: Vanished in the Snow

For more than three and a half decades, the disappearance of 12-year-old Jonelle Matthews was a mystery – a riddle neither authorities nor her family members could solve. The residents of her cloistered Colorado hometown had scoured every inch of prairie. Jonelle’s face had been on milk cartons nationwide. Even the President of the United States had appealed to the public for help. Still, every lead had fizzled. Every person of interest had turned out to be a dead end.    Then, in 2019, Jonelle’s remains were unearthed near the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. With the discovery came a troubling new question: Had the truth been hiding in plain sight the entire time? Was the man who couldn’t stop obsessing over Jonelle’s disappearance also the person who took her? From Campside Media and Wondery comes season two of SUSPECT. Former CNN reporter Ashley Fantz and executive producers Matthew Shaer and Eric Benson (Suspect, Over My Dead Body) dig into one of the most mind-bending cold cases in modern history, in an attempt to separate fact and fiction, compulsion from guilt, and true-crime fandom from a motive for murder.   Hey Prime Members, you can binge all 6 episodes of SUSPECT: Vanished in the Snow ad-free on Amazon Music.

If you’ve ever watched shows like Yellowstone - you know that sometimes out west on a Ranch, there are secrets: secrets never supposed to leave the corral. This was something a ranch hand would discover firsthand, in Gunnison, Colorado in 2017, after witnessing two other ranchers, uncover something horrific. While digging in the horse corral with a backhoe…they unearthed what appeared to be rib bones…human rib bones - poking out from a dirty white sheet of plastic. It was at that moment the ranch hand was told: “You know you can’t ever leave now, right?” How to support: For extra perks including extra content, early release, and ad-free episodes - Go to - Patreon How to connect: Website Instagram Facebook Twitter Research & Writing: Ryan Deininger Sources: The Atlantic Denver Post Office of the District Attorney Dateline: Trouble at the 7-11 Ranch Oxygen  Crested Butte News Mercury News Daily Mail  Denver Post  Gunnison Country Times

Monday, April 23rd, 2018 was a surprisingly warm day in Toronto, Ontario, causing residents to be out in droves, ditching their winter coats, eager to enjoy the sunshine. Among those taking advantage of the warmer weather, was 68 year old Catherine Riddell, headed to the library off of Yonge Street, when a van suddenly struck her from behind. The vehicle had hit Catherine with such force, it sent her body flying in the air, before crashing through a transit shelter. The strange thing was, Catherine hadn’t been hit crossing the street. She’d been walking on the sidewalk.

Episode 134 - Framed: The Story Of Russ Faria - Part 1/2

We take a look into a case with so many twists and turns, that it’s made its way into a dramatized series “The thing about Pam” starring Rene Zellweger. However, in this version of events, Pam Hupp takes a backseat as we focus on the destruction she left in her wake. Her victims, the survivors, and how Russ Faria was left picking up the pieces of his life, ignited by a single mission - to prevent his experience from ever happening to someone else.

Episode 133 - Blue Moon Murders

On August 4th, 2015 in Pensacola, Florida. Escambia County Sheriff, David Morgan delivered a disturbing press conference, giving insight into a recent triple homicide that had taken place inside a quiet suburban home. The grizzly crime scene he described and the brutal way the victims had been murdered was disturbing, but it’s what he said next that sent chills down reporter's spines. The murders appeared to have been ritualistic. Part of some sort of witchcraft ceremony coinciding with the recent and rare Blue Moon.

Episode 131 - Stranger Than Fiction

“Who are you and what have you done with my wife?” It's the kind of rhetorical question asked in jest, expressing pleasant surprise when someone has a change in behavior or attitude. But what if this wasn’t a rhetorical question? What if someone believed their spouse had actually been replaced by someone else? An imposter. A lookalike. Suddenly “Who are you and what have you done with my wife” takes on a much darker, and more sinister tone.

Episode 130 - Hiding In Plain Sight

Watch enough crime shows and it doesn’t take long to figure out the steps a killer will take to get away with murder. They stage the crime scene, they ditch the murder weapon, they fabricate an alibi, and at all costs, make sure to keep their mouths shut until the day they die. But in the case you’re about to hear the killer takes things a step further by actually manipulating information in the case file. Even making evidence disappear. All while hiding in plain sight for more than two decades.

Jo Rogers and her two daughters disappeared after taking their first vacation together.. Tragically it would be their last. Their bodies were later discovered floating in Tampa Bay with all signs horrifically pointing to the probability they’d been thrown overboard alive - bound and weighed down with cinder blocks. It would be a crime that would go unsolved for three years. That's until a group of determined cold case investigators decided to take another look at the case - a case that would make it to the famous TV show "Unsolved Mysteries", and onto billboards, all in a desperate attempt to track down a man they suspected was a serial killer.

Episode 121 - Part 2/2 - Alive But Still Not Free

After Nicole Addimando fatally shot her partner in what she claimed was self-defense, she was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. At her trial the details surrounding her history of abuse were excluded, essentially removing the context for what happened the night of the shooting from the jury. As much as this case examines the darker side of the judicial system it also highlights human strength and the immense power of friendship, love, and compassion - the unstoppable force behind a group of women who have fought fiercely to bring not only Nikki’s truth to light but the injustice all criminalized survivors of intimate partner violence face.

Episode 117 - The Unsuspecting Tourists

One of the best things about traveling is getting to meet new and interesting people along the way. But just how much do you really know about the guy sitting two rows behind you on the plane… or the person offering to split a taxi with you? In this whirlwind episode, you'll hear about three unsuspecting tourists who suddenly disappeared without a trace. That is until their body parts started showing up in Singapore and Thailand. The perpetrator - a fugitive who'd mastered butchery skills in prison.

Episode 116 - Sarah Everard

In March 2021, London along with the rest of England was under a full national lockdown in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. An unusual mix of boredom, fear, and frustration permeated the country as it grappled with the ever-changing rules and restrictions. The entire world it seemed, was just waiting for things to go back to normal. But there was one man who didn’t see these once-in-a-lifetime circumstances as an obstacle - instead, he saw in them - a depraved opportunity to turn locked-down London into his own personal hunting ground.

Episode 115 - Til Death Do Us Part

Ben and Narcy Novak's marriage was held together by mutually-assured destruction. He had all the money. She had all the dirt. Ben Jr. Novack had it all - wealth, influence, and a thriving convention business that made him millions each year. He was also the son of one of the world’s most successful hoteliers. But none of that would protect him from a gruesome death at the hands of the person he should have trusted the most. A wife who took her vows of “til death do us part” to a whole new twisted and sadistic level, stopping at nothing to make sure that if she couldn’t have him, no one could.

Episode 114 - Kathleen McGehee

Halloween is without a doubt considered the spookiest time of year.  It’s the time of year when we binge watch all of the horror classics, sure to induce a good jump scare - like Halloween, Friday the 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. There are also those other classics that take us to a much darker place - like Rosemary’s Baby and The Omen, where we question the existence of demons. For one young man in the town of Manteca, California, there came a time where he didn’t just question the existence of demons - he believed he was actually seeing them.

Imagine sitting on the back deck of a yacht, soaking up Pacific sunshine off the coast of Mexico with a cold Margarita in one hand, and the love of your life in the other. No more work - just the pure bliss of retirement and endless summer. Swimming with dolphins at sunset in the Sea of Cortez. A beach in every bay, and a party in every port. This was the life of Tom and Jackie Hawks in 2004. It was the kind of life everyone dreams of...The kind of life a person would just kill to have.

Episode 107 - Mollie Tibbetts

For some, it may be hard to believe there are still places that exist in the world where people don't give a second thought to leaving their doors unlocked.

Russell Tillis was described by residents of Bowden Circle East in Jacksonville Florida, as “the neighbor from hell.” Since taking over his parent's already dilapidated home, Russell set to work transforming the property into a ramshackle fortress, guarded with a makeshift privacy fence lined with razor blades and hidden booby-traps throughout his yard.

There was just one problem. Joe wasn’t aware of it, or about the friends she’d invited to be the audience.

Episode 35 – The Devil Made Me Do It Case

Can you remember back to a time when you were afraid to go to sleep at night as a child because of a game you played with friends, like Bloody Mary or maybe with a Ouija board? Or how about sleeping with the light on because of a spooky story or an urban legend you heard at bedtime or while sitting around a campfire? As children our imaginations made it possible for these stories to seem believable, despite being told by our parents a million times there is no such thing as monsters or ghosts.
