  • Great podcast!!

    I appreciate the in depth research of the cases, and the hosts discuss them in a very respectful manner- taking into account the feelings of the victims and their families. Also, they cover a vast range of cases from recent to really old cold cases, which keeps it very interesting and doesn’t let people be forgotten.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

646 // New Revelations in Trenny Gibson's Disappearance w/ Laura Riste
Q: Is there anything else about this fellow, Gary, like what was the rest of his life like?
Laura explains that Gary was not on the Gibsons' radar initially, that he later surfaced as someone connected to the case, and that public records show he had a troubled life but little detail is available; the discussion emphasizes that the focus remains on the more clearly connected figures like Robert Simpson and Calvin Bowman.
639 // Nancy Guthrie Abduction w/ Dr. Laura Pettler
Q: What is the significance of the glove found near Nancy's home?
Dr. Pettler explains that while DNA from the glove didn't match, it doesn't mean it isn't relevant; DNA analysis could provide insights into the case.
639 // Nancy Guthrie Abduction w/ Dr. Laura Pettler
Q: What do you think about how law enforcement has been approaching the investigation?
Dr. Pettler expresses concern regarding the early release of the crime scene, noting that it complicates the investigation.
638 // Lilly & Jack Sullivan - Part 4 - Stepfather Under Suspicion
Q: Are they using the charges against Daniel to get more information?
It's uncertain, but the new charges could potentially give them a fresh shot at looking at all of his information.
638 // Lilly & Jack Sullivan - Part 4 - Stepfather Under Suspicion
Q: Has it actually been declared a criminal investigation?
It hasn't been publicly confirmed or classified as a criminal investigation by the police, but they have significant authority to investigate missing persons cases under the Missing Persons Act.
