Dan Wozniak was a charming, talented actor in Southern California with big dreams and a wedding on the horizon, but his finances were falling apart and his taste for the spotlight far outpaced what his life could actually afford. Rather than face the truth, he began to lie, manipulate, and scheme, building a fantasy of the life he wanted on a foundation of deception. In the spring of 2010, that spiral of debt and delusion set the stage for an unthinkable crime. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy traces Wozniak's troubled path from aspiring theater star to desperate con man, the toxic relationships and mounting pressures that surrounded him, and the calculated plan that would soon leave two innocent people dead.Follow Murder: True Crime Stories for Part 2 of this episode: https://pod.link/1745145932If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

On July 3, 2015, 35-year-old Crystal Rogers was supposed to have a date night with her boyfriend. The following morning, she was missing. Two days later, her car turned up abandoned on Kentucky's Bluegrass Parkway. There was a flat tire, keys in the ignition and her purse was still inside. But there was no Crystal. What followed was a decade of investigation, an FBI takeover, grand jury battles, and arrests for murder and evidence tampering. But Crystal's body has never been found. And her family is still fighting for answers.For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

During the Cold War, the CIA quietly turned modern art into a weapon. Convinced that America needed to prove its cultural superiority over the Soviet Union, the agency secretly promoted abstract expressionist painters like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning as symbols of American freedom. Through a front group called the Congress for Cultural Freedom and a network of fake foundations, the CIA funneled millions of dollars into touring exhibitions across Europe, partnering with the Museum of Modern Art, all without the artists ever knowing who was funding their success. The irony was staggering: many of the painters were anarchists and former communists, President Truman thought their work was garbage, and Congress called it un-American, yet the CIA bankrolled it anyway. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson examines the declassified operation that transformed paint splatters into propaganda, the strange alliance between spies and the art world, and the unsettling question of whether some of the most celebrated art of the 20th century rose on merit, or because a spy agency decided it was useful.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

In 1922, six members of the same family were found murdered on their isolated farmstead in the Bavarian countryside, killed one by one with a pickaxe. In the days before their deaths, the family had noticed strange and frightening signs: footprints in the snow, footsteps in the attic, and the unshakable feeling that someone was watching them. But they never made it out alive, and their killer was never caught. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy introduces the family at the center of one of Europe's most haunting unsolved mysteries, the eerie warnings that preceded the massacre, and the quiet farm that became the scene of an unthinkable crime.Follow Murder: True Crime Stories for Part 2 of this episode: https://pod.link/1745145932If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

On March 19, 2004, 17-year-old Brianna Maitland finished her shift at the Black Lantern Inn in Vermont and drove into the night.

In January 1996, the small Brazilian city of Varginha became the center of one of the most famous UFO stories in South American history. Multiple witnesses, including three young women, reported seeing a strange creature with a large head and red eyes lurking in the streets, while others claimed the military had captured one or more living beings and recovered a crashed craft. As soldiers reportedly swarmed the area and a young military police officer who allegedly handled a creature later died under murky circumstances, the official denials only deepened public suspicion that something was being covered up. To this day, Varginha is often called the "Brazilian Roswell." In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson is joined by Laurah Norton of One Strange Thing to investigate the Varginha incident, the witnesses who swore they saw something otherworldly, and the alleged government cover-up that turned a small city into a permanent fixture of UFO lore.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

On February 10, 1984, 10-year-old Kevin Collins left basketball practice at St. Agnes School in San Francisco and began the short, familiar walk home through the Sunset District. Multiple witnesses recalled seeing him speaking with an unknown man near a schoolyard. He never made it home. Despite one of the largest searches in San Francisco history — roadblocks, helicopters, hundreds of volunteers — no physical trace of Kevin was ever found. A known sex offender was investigated for years and stood trial in the 1990s, but was acquitted for lack of evidence. The Collins family, and an entire city, never got their answer.For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

According to the Bible, the Ark of the Covenant was a gold-covered chest built to hold the Ten Commandments, an object of such immense divine power that it could level cities and strike down anyone who touched it. Then, sometime after the destruction of the First Temple in Jerusalem, it vanished from history. For thousands of years, the question of what happened to it has fueled legends and obsessive searches, with some claiming it lies hidden in a church in Ethiopia, others pointing to secret chambers beneath Jerusalem, and still others insisting it sits locked away in the vaults of the Vatican. Faith institutions have guarded its mystery for centuries, neither confirming nor denying what they may know. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson explores the legend of the Ark of the Covenant, the competing theories about where it ended up, and the enduring belief that one of history's most powerful relics may still be out there, waiting to be found.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

On September 14, 2007, 14-year-old Andrew Gosden left his Doncaster home as if heading to school, doubled back once his family left, changed clothes, withdrew £200 in cash, and bought a one-way train ticket to London. CCTV cameras caught him arriving alone at King's Cross Station. After he walked out of that station, he was never seen again. Andrew was described as academically brilliant, deeply private, and deeply reserved. He left behind his charger and packed almost nothing — as if he hadn't planned to be gone long. In one of the most surveilled cities in the world, a boy simply vanished.For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

For nearly a decade, the Sicilian Mafia ran the largest heroin pipeline in the world, hiding it inside something as ordinary as the neighborhood pizza parlor. Morphine was bought in Turkey, refined into heroin in Sicily, smuggled into the United States, and sold through family-owned pizzerias across the American Northeast, while the profits were laundered through banks in New York, the Bahamas, and Switzerland. The operation moved an estimated $1.65 billion in drugs before the FBI, aided by an undercover agent who had spent years embedded inside the Bonanno crime family, coordinated arrests across four countries in a single day. The trial that followed lasted seventeen months, one defendant was murdered before it ended, and the star witness became the first made man in history to break the Mafia's code of silence. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson unravels the Pizza Connection, the vast criminal network hidden behind storefront counters, and the investigation that brought it crashing down.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

In this episode, we're joined by Andrea Dunlop, host of Nobody Should Believe Me, to examine the haunting case of Madeleine McCann. On the evening of May 3, 2007, three-year-old Madeleine McCann vanished from the family's holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, while her parents dined at a nearby restaurant. What followed became the most publicized missing child investigation in modern history. The global media spectacle turned her parents into suspects, generated more heat than light, and produced decades of leads that went nowhere. A German national was formally named a suspect in 2020, but no charges have been filed. Behind the noise of international coverage, a small child simply disappeared.

In 1483, two boys, the 12-year-old King of England and his 9-year-old brother, were placed in the Tower of London by their uncle, who had sworn to protect them. In 1483, two boys, the 12-year-old King of England and his 9-year-old brother, were placed in the Tower of London by their uncle, who had sworn to protect them. Instead, he declared them illegitimate and crowned himself King Richard III. The princes were seen playing in the Tower gardens that summer, and then they vanished. Their uncle had the clearest motive, but so did his closest ally and the man who later overthrew him, leaving three suspects and no confession. In 1674, workers found the skeletons of two children beneath a Tower staircase, bones now sealed in a Westminster Abbey tomb that has repeatedly been denied DNA testing. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson examines one of the oldest cold cases in history, the three suspects who all had reason to want the boys dead, and the mystery modern science could finally solve if anyone would open the tomb.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

Israel Keyes spent years methodically preparing for murder: burying weapon caches across the country, committing crimes far from home, and maintaining a quiet family life to avoid suspicion. Born into a white nationalist sect and mentored by domestic terrorists, Keyes developed a chilling capacity for violence alongside an equally chilling ability to conceal it. This episode traces his upbringing, his earliest attacks, and the elaborate systems he built to keep killing undetected.

In July 1987, 16-year-old Theresa Ann Bier was camping in Yosemite National Park — but not with family. She had been traveling with an older man she recently met, a relationship that alarmed those who knew her. Shortly after arriving at the campground, Theresa disappeared. The man claimed she had wandered off, but investigators found holes in his account early on. With nobody recovered despite exhaustive searches of Yosemite's vast wilderness, a conviction proved impossible. Authorities have long suspected homicide. Some of America's most beautiful places can become the setting for its darkest crimes.For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

On April 2, 1865, Confederate President Jefferson Davis fled Richmond with the entire Confederate treasury, a fortune in gold ingots, silver bricks, and coins guarded by teenage Navy midshipmen on a train heading south into a collapsing nation. Five weeks later, when Union soldiers finally captured Davis, almost all of it was gone. The War Department told the public the missing treasure was worth $13 million, a number historians say was invented to turn every former Confederate into a hunted man. The truth was far more complicated, with records showing most of the money was paid to soldiers and spent along the way. But the legend never died. Wagons were raided in Georgia, deathbed confessions pointed to buried caches no one ever found, and treasure hunters are still searching 160 years later. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson follows the trail of the lost Confederate gold, the myth the government built around it, and the question that still drives people into the woods with shovels: where did it all go?For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

Between 2013 and 2017, Anna Sorokin — a Russian-born, German-raised young woman with a sharp eye for luxury and a sharper tongue for anyone who doubted her — convinced New York's elite that she was Anna Delvey, heiress to a vast European fortune. She stayed in five-star hotels, flew on private jets, defrauded banks out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, and nearly secured a $22 million loan to fund her own private arts club. She was caught, convicted, detained, and still, somehow, kept talking. We trace the con, the character, and the city that was almost too flattered by her attention to notice it was being robbed.For more, follow Crimes Of wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1838511303If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

In 1802, a journalist reported that President Thomas Jefferson was keeping an enslaved woman named Sally Hemings as a concubine and had fathered her children. Jefferson said nothing. His family denied it. America's most prominent historians dismissed the story for nearly two hundred years.But Hemings' own descendants told a different story, one passed down through generations of oral history that the white historical establishment refused to take seriously. Did the man who wrote the Declaration of Independence have a secret family with a woman he enslaved? And if he did, why did it take the country so long to admit it? In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson revisits one of the most contested questions in American history, and the family that refused to let it go.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

Jim Jones told his people he loved them. He built a church that preached racial equality and social justice at a time when those words carried weight. Then he moved nearly a thousand followers to a jungle compound in Guyana and called it paradise. On November 18, 1978, 918 people died at Jonestown — including 304 children — in a mass poisoning Jones called a revolutionary act. We trace the full arc of the Peoples Temple: the idealism that drew people in, the terror that kept them from leaving, and the single worst loss of American civilian life until September 11, 2001.For more, follow Crimes Of wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1838511303If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

On August 12, 2013, 25-year-old theater technician Tiffany Daniels left her job at Pensacola State College and never arrived at a friend's home that evening. The next morning, her car was found locked at Fort Pickens — a remote Gulf Coast location known for sweeping beaches and a historic fortification — with her purse, phone, and personal belongings still inside. Authorities initially explored whether she had an accident in the surrounding wilderness before reclassifying the case as suspicious. More than a decade later, no charges have been filed, and the beach that may hold her secrets has stayed silent.For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

In 1976, Soviet cosmonaut Boris Volynov endured a catastrophic solo stint aboard the Salyut 5 space station: contaminated air, a crumbling support system, and a rescue that nearly ended in disaster. The creepypasta "The Devil's Cosmonaut" takes that real mission and asks one quiet question: what if it wasn't just the air? Built on documented failures, classified silence, and the psychological terror of absolute isolation, this story blurs the line between breakdown and haunting in ways that are hard to shake.

Marshall Applewhite believed — and made others believe — that Earth was about to be wiped clean, and that the only escape was to shed the human body and board a spacecraft trailing the Hale-Bopp comet. In March 1997, 39 members of Heaven's Gate were found dead in a mansion in Rancho Santa Fe, California, dressed in matching black and wearing new Nike sneakers. They had packed bags for the journey. Applewhite had been refining this theology for decades, and the people who followed him were not fringe figures — they were educated, thoughtful, and completely certain. We look at the belief system, the man who built it, and the community that died by it.For more, follow Crimes Of... wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1838511303If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

On the morning of March 24, 1998, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley vanished from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship while it was docked in Curaçao. She had been dancing with her brother the night before and was last seen resting on the cabin balcony at dawn — then she was simply gone. The ship was not locked down before passengers disembarked, potentially allowing critical evidence to walk off the vessel. In the years since, alleged sightings have surfaced across the Caribbean, including photographs some believe show Amy alive. Jurisdictional confusion, maritime gray areas, and a family that has never stopped looking define one of the most infuriating disappearances in modern history.For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

Walt Disney didn't just build a theme park. He built a system of total control, and convinced the world to call it magic. Employees aren't staff, they're "cast members." Uniforms are "costumes." Guests who step out of line are escorted by plainclothes security to unmarked holding rooms. Beneath the park, a nine-acre tunnel network houses a command center monitoring over 70,000 functions per second. For 56 years, Disney ran its own government in Florida, with its own fire department, building codes, and laws, after promising the state a utopian city of 20,000 residents living under permanent corporate rule with no voting rights. That city was never built. The theme park was. Walt himself was a documented FBI informant. And then there are the myths: a frozen body beneath Pirates of the Caribbean, secret Masonic geometry, the truth about Club 33. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson separates the myths from the documented conspiracies, and asks why the most controlled environment in America keeps generating stories that sound like fiction but aren't.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

In the summer of 1776, as the Continental Army braced for a British invasion of New York City, a network of loyalist conspirators bribed five of George Washington's own elite bodyguards to murder him.

An arcade cabinet appears in Portland in 1981, tucked between ordinary machines and drawing a strange crowd. Players report migraines, vivid nightmares, and missing time. Then the game disappears, leaving behind only forum posts, half-remembered sightings, and one of the internet’s most persistent gaming legends. Heidi traces the Polybius myth from early message boards to modern retellings, and asks why the idea of a game designed to study — or alter — the people playing it still feels plausible.For more follow Twisted Tales wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1839058226Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

On a summer night in July 2015, 21-year-old Lauren Agee was camping with friends on a towering rocky bluff above Center Hill Lake at Tennessee's Wakefest boating festival. By morning, she was dead at the base of the cliff ninety feet below. Authorities ruled it an accidental fall. Her family never accepted that answer. Inconsistencies in the autopsy, shifting witness accounts, and a scene that wasn't immediately treated as a crime raised urgent questions. Was Lauren's death a tragic accident — or did someone on that bluff know exactly what happened and walk away?For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

Presented as a real personal account with photographs and journal entries, Ted the Caver predated modern creepypastas and convinced countless readers it was true. The story builds from physical claustrophobia to something far darker: unexplained sounds, a dog's terror, a screaming passage, and a presence that may have followed Ted home.For more follow Twisted Tales wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1839058226Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

In the mid-1930s, Cleveland, Ohio was gripped by a series of brutal killings that would become one of the most disturbing mysteries in American criminal history. Victims were discovered dismembered, their heads and limbs removed, leaving investigators struggling to identify the dead or track the killer responsible. As the bodies began appearing along the city’s rail yards and riverbanks, fear spread across Cleveland. Authorities, including famed lawman Eliot Ness, launched an intense investigation, but the killer known as the “Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run” remained elusive. Part one explores the discovery of the first victims and the growing terror that signaled a serial killer was at work.Follow Serial Killers & Murderous Minds for part 2 of this episode: https://pod.link/1769285458Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

Led by Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (Osho), the movement built a utopian commune in Oregon that devolved into bioterrorism, immigration fraud, and assassination plots. In 1984, members carried out the largest bioterror attack in U.S. history by poisoning salad bars to sway a local election. The case shows how charismatic leadership and insular power structures can turn spiritual movements into criminal enterprises.For more, follow Crimes Of wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1838511303Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

On the night before Thanksgiving 2016, eighteen-year-old Tom Brown left his home in Canadian, Texas to go cruising with friends. But he never came home. When his red Dodge Durango turned up the next morning at a sewage treatment plant on the edge of town, there was a bullet casing on the floor and a drop of his blood on the door handle, but no sign of Tom. What followed was two years of strange discoveries: his backpack found miles away across the Canadian River, his phone resurfacing in near-perfect condition, and security footage of someone driving his car around that tiny town for hours while people were out looking for him. When a deputy finally stumbled across some of Tom's remains in 2019, the bones gave up nothing. No cause of death. No answers. The case was shelved, and Tom wasn't buried until nearly nine years after he vanished. Somebody knows what happened that night in Canadian. They just haven't said.For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

Four murders. Four turning points. The crime behind Miranda rights. The case that created the FBI. The era that gave us criminal profiling. And the murder of Adam Walsh that built America's missing-children movement.
In April 2014, Kris Kremers and Lisanne Froon, two Dutch women in their early twenties, went for a daytime hike on a trail near Boquete, Panama. They never came back. Weeks later, their backpack was found on a jungle riverbank with their phones, camera, and cash still inside. What was on that camera changed everything: photographs taken in total darkness over several days, including what appears to be an SOS signal and one photo that had been deliberately deleted. Partial remains found months later were scattered miles from where their distress calls began and the official verdict of accidental death hasn't satisfied everyone. Was it a tragic accident, or did someone find them first?For more, follow The Final Hours wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1872821250Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

In the mid-1800s, a British naturalist named Philip Sclater proposed the existence of a vast sunken continent — Lemuria — to explain a gap in the fossil record. What began as a genuine scientific hypothesis was seized upon by occultists, racists, and spiritual movements, mutating over 150 years into a living religion practiced at the foot of a California volcano. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa Richardson traces how one man's theory about lemur fossils became the foundation for a conspiracy touching Atlantis, Theosophy, Nazism, and the New Age.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754Join Crime House+ to binge a special limited series on Murder: True Crime Stories for America’s 250th: The Crimes That Built America.

What began as a series of tweets about sleep paralysis turned into one of the internet’s most famous live-haunting stories. A man named Adam begins posting about a dead child with a misshapen head who appears first in dreams, then in photographs, then seemingly inside his apartment. Heidi walks through the Dear David thread as it unfolded in real time, and explores why serialized horror told through social media can make fiction feel more intimate — and more believable — than almost anything else online.For more follow Twisted Tales wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1839058226If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

In the summer of 1969, Los Angeles was living in the long glow of the counterculture — until two nights of murders shattered it beyond repair. Charles Manson never held the knife himself, but he held something more powerful: the total psychological devotion of young men and women who would kill on his word. We examine how Manson built his family, what he promised them, the ideology of race war he called Helter Skelter, and the murders of Sharon Tate, Abigail Folger, and five others that made the whole country lock its doors. Fifty years on, we ask what made Manson possible — and what made his followers willing.For more, follow Crimes Of wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1838511303If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

In southeastern Massachusetts, a stretch of land known as the Bridgewater Triangle has been a magnet for paranormal activity for centuries: cryptid sightings, UFO encounters, ghostly apparitions, and evidence of occult rituals. Many trace the darkness back to King Philip's War of 1675-76, one of the deadliest conflicts per capita in American history, which left the land scarred by massacre, displacement, and loss. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa Richardson explores the history, the hauntings, and whether the Triangle's strange reputation is rooted in something real or something we need to believe. With archaeological sites dating back over 8,000 years, the answers may run deeper than any single legend.For more, follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1828469754If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Scams, Money, & Murder to never miss a case!

Richard Kuklinski grew up in the violent housing projects of Jersey City, New Jersey, where abuse at home and relentless bullying on the streets hardened him into a killer before he turned 15. By his mid-twenties, he had leveraged his capacity for cold-blooded violence into a career as a trusted hitman for the Gambino crime family under Brooklyn mob boss Roy DeMeo. This episode traces how Kuklinski's early trauma, unchecked rage, and hunger for control drove him deeper into organized crime... and closer to his own undoing.

On September 12, 1987, 50-year-old night watchman Dale Kerstetter clocked in at Corning Glass Works in Bradford, Pennsylvania and was never seen again. Surveillance footage captured him calmly walking off-camera beside a masked intruder, pausing only to look directly into the lens.

In 1954, the CIA orchestrated a covert coup that removed Guatemala's democratically elected president, Jacobo Árbenz, at the behest of Cold War anxieties and the United Fruit Company's political influence.

In 1892, as tuberculosis ravaged the small town of Exeter, Rhode Island, a grieving family made a desperate decision: they exhumed the body of 19-year-old Mercy Brown, convinced the dead were feeding on the living.

In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa Richardson explores the Mercy Brown case, the tuberculosis panic that fueled it, and how grief can turn a community toward the unthinkable. How far will people go when science has no answers and the people they love keep dying?

Vanessa and Dr. Engels are joined by Dr. Harini Bhat from PAVE Studio's newest show "Hidden History" as they discuss the "Blood Countess" Elizabeth Bathory, a 16th and 17th-century noblewoman who used her vast wealth, noble status, and unchecked power to torture and murder hundreds of young girls within the walls of her castle. Raised amid war, public executions, and a family that weaponized cruelty, Bathory built an inner circle of accomplices who helped her kill with near-total impunity. When whispers of her crimes finally reached the clergy, she devised increasingly bold schemes to hide the evidence... until her methods grew too monstrous to ignore.

In this episode of Crimes Of... Sabrina and Corinne unpack the disturbing and deeply complex case of Susan Polk—a woman who married her own therapist and, decades later, killed him. What begins as a troubling story of blurred boundaries and unethical behavior evolves into a marriage defined by power imbalances, emotional control, and escalating instability. Rather than asking whether Susan killed her husband—because she did—this episode examines how a relationship rooted in grooming and manipulation shaped the path to violence. Through a careful exploration of Susan’s life, her marriage to Dr. Felix Polk, and the dynamics that defined their relationship, this episode lives in the gray space where love, abuse, and accountability collide.

On a single night in 1982, seven people in the Chicago area died after taking Tylenol. They didn't know each other, they weren't targeted, and the killer never had to get close to a single one of them.

Welcome to America’s Most Infamous Crimes. Katie Ring takes you deep into cases that have left a lasting imprint on society, and still haunt us today. In part two of our three part series, Katie examines the escalation of Ted Bundy’s killing spree in 1974, as he used a fake arm sling, calculated charm, and his understanding of police procedure to abduct young women in plain sight across the Pacific Northwest. Katie traces the growing pattern of disappearances, the jurisdictional gaps that allowed the crimes to go unconnected, and the mounting suspicions of Bundy’s longtime girlfriend, Elizabeth Kloepfer, who reported him to police twice as the case grew wider and harder to ignore.

Welcome to America’s Most Infamous Crimes. Katie Ring takes you deep into cases that have left a lasting imprint on society, and still haunt us today. Ted Bundy didn’t fit the image of a killer. He was educated, ambitious, and outwardly composed, the kind of man people trusted without hesitation. In this first episode, Katie traces the early fractures that shaped him: family secrets, rejection, mounting resentment, and the double life he quietly began to build. While pursuing politics and studying law, Bundy nurtured violent fantasies he would later describe as a dark force inside him called “the entity”. When he chose to give in to it, no one could predict what was coming.

In this episode of Crimes Of... Sabrina and Corinne unpack the disturbing and deeply complex case of Susan Polk—a woman who married her own therapist and, decades later, killed him. What begins as a troubling story of blurred boundaries and unethical behavior evolves into a marriage defined by power imbalances, emotional control, and escalating instability. Rather than asking whether Susan killed her husband—because she did—this episode examines how a relationship rooted in grooming and manipulation shaped the path to violence. Through a careful exploration of Susan’s life, her marriage to Dr. Felix Polk, and the dynamics that defined their relationship, this episode lives in the gray space where love, abuse, and accountability collide.

This week in crime history, we revisit two of the most infamous killers of the 20th century — men whose charm masked unimaginable evil.On December 30th, 1977, Ted Bundy slipped through the ceiling of his Colorado jail cell and vanished into the night, igniting one of the most infamous manhunts in American history. His escape would lead to more murders and cement his place as one of the world’s most notorious serial killers.Then, we travel back to January 3rd, 1972, when John Wayne Gacy — a seemingly ordinary suburban businessman known for his charity work and clown performances — claimed his first victim. Over the next six years, Gacy would lure and murder more than 30 young men, hiding many of their bodies beneath his home.Join Vanessa Richardson as she unpacks the twisted psychology and lasting impact of these two killers who redefined how America sees evil — reminding us that the most dangerous monsters often look just like everyone else.

This week on True Crime This Week, host Vanessa Richardson unravels two of history’s most mysterious vanishings — both stranger than fiction.First, in 1926, the “Queen of Mystery” herself, Agatha Christie, vanished after a late-night drive. Her abandoned car sparked an 11-day nationwide search that baffled police, fellow authors, and millions of readers. When she finally reappeared, Agatha claimed to remember nothing — leaving behind one of the greatest mysteries she ever created.Then, rewind to 1875, when infamous New York City politician William “Boss” Tweed escaped from jail after embezzling millions. His disappearance led to an international manhunt — and it was a political cartoon that finally brought him down.From literary legends to crooked power brokers, these disappearances prove that truth can be far more mysterious than fiction.
