In 2008, a young real estate agent in Victoria, British Columbia, received what should have been a career-defining opportunity: a million-dollar home showing for new clients eager to buy. Instead, it became one of Canada’s most haunting unsolved murders. After a series of calls from a woman with a foreign accent, Lindsay agreed to show a vacant luxury home to a couple she had never met. She told people in her life something about the situation felt off. She took precautions. She tried to be careful. But within minutes of arriving at the property, Lindsay was brutally killed. In this episode, we dig into the lead that brought her there, the mysterious prepaid phone used to contact her, and the unsettling possibility that this wasn’t random — that someone may have chosen her. Was this a targeted attack? A setup connected to something larger? Or something closer to home? Nearly two decades later, the questions remain — and so does the search for justice. If you have any information — no matter how small — related to the 2008 murder of Lindsay Buziak, please come forward.

Dorothy Jane Scott was a 32-year-old single mom — steady, devoted, and the kind of person who wouldn’t think twice about helping someone in trouble. But in the months leading up to her disappearance, Dorothy started receiving anonymous phone calls that didn’t sound like a prank… they sounded like a warning. The caller knew her routines. What she wore. Where she’d been. And he made it clear he wasn’t going away. Then, after a late-night trip to the hospital with coworkers, Dorothy stepped into a parking lot… and vanished. Her car would later be found burned in an alleyway — headlights on, door open — as if someone bailed out in a hurry. And just when her family was desperate for answers, the phone rang. “I’ve got her.” In this episode, we walk through Dorothy’s life, the chilling calls, the night she disappeared, and the years of taunting that followed. We dig into the theories — who this man may have been, why he was never identified, and how a case this bold could remain unsolved decades later. If you know anything about the disappearance and murder of Dorothy Jane Scott, or have information that could help bring her family answers, law enforcement is still seeking tips.

The murder of Missy Bevers is one of the most haunting unsolved cases in Texas — not just because it happened inside a church before dawn, but because the suspect was caught on camera… and still has never been identified. On April 18, 2016, Missy arrived at Creekside Church of Christ in Midlothian to prepare for her early morning workout class. Later, students arrived to find police tape, broken glass, and a crime scene that made no sense. Surveillance footage shows an unknown person in tactical gear labeled “POLICE” wandering the halls with tools — moving slowly, breaking glass, opening doors — and then, Missy is killed. In this episode, we walk through Missy’s life and the relationships around her, the timeline leading up to that morning, the evidence and forensics that have been made public, and the biggest theories — including what fits, what doesn’t, and why this case continues to spark so many questions.

This is part two of the Crystal Rogers Case, if you haven't listened to part one, do that first. Years after Crystal Rogers vanished, the case remained cold—until the FBI descended on Bardstown with dozens of search warrants and a mission to find the truth.  What followed unraveled a hidden conspiracy: secret phone calls, a burned-out car, grand jury testimony, and a trail that pointed directly to the people closest to Crystal.  With explosive courtroom revelations, long-awaited arrests, and shocking testimony from within the Houck family’s own circle, the mystery finally began to break open. But even with convictions secured, questions remain, importantly,  where is Crystal Rogers? To see more about this case, as well as the sources used to create this episode, visit our Blog Here.

When 35-year-old Crystal Rogers vanished over Fourth of July weekend in 2015, her abandoned car—with her phone and purse still inside—was the only clue left behind.  As her family launched a desperate search, suspicion quickly turned to the man she lived with: Brooks Houck, the father of her youngest child. But what followed would expose a tangled web of lies, silence, and fear that gripped the small town of Bardstown, Kentucky.  And just as her loved ones refused to give up, a second tragedy would strike. This is the story of a mother’s disappearance—and a father's relentless pursuit of the truth.

On the morning of January 24, 2006, Jennifer Kesse didn’t show up for work. Her phone went straight to voicemail. Her car was missing. And within hours, her life — and her case — would become frozen in time. What followed was an investigation filled with unsettling contradictions: security footage that captured a suspect but hid their identity, evidence that was abundant yet inconclusive, and early missteps that may have cost investigators their best chance at answers. Jennifer didn’t vanish without leaving traces — she vanished despite them. In this episode, we walk through Jennifer’s life, the days leading up to her disappearance, and a detailed timeline of what’s known and what still isn’t. We examine the surveillance video that came to define the case, the discovery of her vehicle, the overlooked details, and where the investigation is today, nearly two decades later. This is not just the story of a disappearance. It’s the story of evidence that, until this last year, never got a chance to speak. But answers may be coming soon because her family refused to let silence win. This is the story of Jennifer Kesse, and it isn't over yet.

On the morning of December 21st, 1992, 25-year-old schoolteacher Christy Mirack never arrived to her class. What followed would become one of Lancaster County’s most haunting cold cases — a violent crime with no suspects, no motive, and no answers for over two decades. In this episode, we revisit the life of Christy Mirack — a passionate educator with a bright future — and the devastating timeline of her murder. We trace the case from the quiet panic of that December morning through years of stalled leads, forensic evidence, and heartbreak, to the breakthrough that finally revealed her killer: a face no one expected. This is the story of a family and community that refused to forget, and the science that helped bring justice for Christy Mirack.

Trigger warning, this episode contains extensive discussion on suicide. When 21-year-old artist Molly Young was found dead from a gunshot wound in her ex-boyfriend’s bedroom in Carbondale, Illinois, the explanation seemed to arrive before investigators did: “She just committed suicide.”  But nothing about the scene — or the timeline — ever truly added up. No fingerprints on the gun. No gunshot residue on anyone in the apartment. Fresh scratches on Molly’s ex. A 4-hour delay before 911 was called. And a crime scene that raised more questions than answers. Was Molly in a moment of despair when she pulled the trigger? Or was she the victim of an intimate homicide — concealed, mishandled, and dismissed? In this episode we analyze conflicting evidence and explore how her death — officially ruled “undetermined” — ignited a decade-long fight by her family for truth, transparency, and justice, ultimately leading to legislative change in Illinois known as Molly’s Law. Listen now to learn more about Molly, this case that has experts and investigators divided to this day, and decide for yourself what you think happened in the middle of the night back in 2012.

Two days later, her body was found on the edge of town. The man responsible wasn’t a stranger. He was one sworn to protect. In this episode, we share Sonya’s story — who she was before that night, what happened in the investigation that followed, and how her murder exposed a painful truth about the vulnerability of Indigenous women in Alaska.  Through her family’s words, community outrage, and the lasting impact of her case, we examine how trust in law enforcement was shattered, and what it revealed about the ongoing crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.

On a sunny morning in June 1991, Penny Bell left her beautiful home in Buckinghamshire and told the builders she was late for an appointment. She never came back. Just a couple of hours later, she was found brutally stabbed more than fifty times inside her powder blue Jaguar — parked in broad daylight, in a busy West London car park. No weapon found. Purse left in the car. No witnesses who could stop it. And the £8,500 Penny withdrew just days before? Gone, without a trace. This week, we dig into one of Britain’s most baffling unsolved murders — a case so public, so frenzied, and yet somehow still unsolved over thirty years later.  Who was the man seen sitting in the passenger seat? What was that mysterious “appointment” she was rushing to? And how does someone commit a daylight murder in a crowded car park and vanish into thin air? Get ready to question everything you thought you knew about “safe places,” as we peel back the layers of the Penny Bell mystery — one clue, one contradiction, and one unanswered question at a time.
