  • The Gloved Hand in the Seamless Ice: How Sherry Porter Was Framed
    2026/08/06
    The Gloved Hand in the Seamless Ice: How Sherry Porter Was Framed

    A gloved woman's hand protruded from perfectly seamless ice on Keswick Lake, its fingers curled and the wrist angled as if placed to be seen once the surface sealed-what looked like an impossible crime scene was in fact a deliberate trap. Who studied the lake, timed the freeze, and reached back through dark water to leave one hand visible as a message-or a frame?

    In this episode, we lay out the timeline from Sherry Porter's disappearance to the discovery on November 9, 1894, follow the arrival of private investigator Sandra Schultz, and trace how a preserved strand of rope and the ice company's grid revealed the mechanics of the crime. How did the scored ice and a week of missed urgency allow a killer to make death look like nature?

    Person: Sherry Porter
    Date: November 4-9, 1894
    Location: Keswick Lake, Millhaven Township
    Investigator: Sandra Schultz
    Cause of death: Strangulation (ligature marks), no water in lungs

    - Sherry Porter was 26 years old and worked two years as a bookkeeper at the Millhaven Cooperative Grain Exchange with zero errors recorded.
    - Janet Rafferty discovered the granate-gloved hand on November 9, 1894, after Sherry had been missing since the night of November 4.
    - Dr. Henry Prout determined four to five days of sustained freezing and that Sherry was dead before entering the water.
    - Norris Ice Company had scored Keswick Lake in a grid with lines about 22 inches apart earlier that October, creating invisible seams once snow fell.
    - Sandra Schultz arrived at the lake on November 12 and found the body placed inside one of the grid squares, lowered into open water between the scoring lines.

  • The Ledger, the Attendance Card, and the Girl Called Dora
    2026/08/05
    The Ledger, the Attendance Card, and the Girl Called Dora

    A preserved attendance card, laminated with glass and black electrical tape, lay deliberately atop a tarp-weighted body found thirty feet off a bluff above the Sullen Fork River on October 9, 1917 - the card bore only the name "Dora." Who protected that single school record for years, and why was it placed where the body would be discovered?

    In this episode, we follow the discovery, the people connected to the Harmon Mission School, and the investigator who must untangle missing records, routine phone calls, and a deliberate absence of paperwork to answer whether the card was a taunt, a confession, or something stranger.

    Person: Julie Zeller
    Date: October 9, 1917
    Location: bluff trail above the Sullen Fork River
    Institution: Harmon Mission School
    Investigator: Jennifer Osborne

    - The body was found face down, covered by a canvas tarp weighted with river stones, with one hand visible.
    - The attendance card recorded seven weeks of attendance in the autumn of 1909 and bore only the name "Dora."
    - Julie Zeller worked as a bookkeeper at the Dellard Timber Cooperative since 1912 and made weekly collect calls every Wednesday after 10 pm to Walter Beem.
    - Walter Beem was the Harmon Mission School administrator from 1904 until the school burned in 1911 and confirmed Zeller had been an assistant teacher there from 1907 until the fire.
    - A University of Oregon historian in 1981 dated the card's lamination materials to roughly 1912-1915, indicating Zeller preserved it after the 1911 fire.

  • A Dry Shoe in the Tidal Cut: The Murder of Lori Donnelly
    2026/08/04
    A Dry Shoe in the Tidal Cut: The Murder of Lori Donnelly

    A dry inner shoe lining pulled from a tidal cut became the single clue that suggested deliberate placement, not accident - a navy-blue pump with a two-inch heel and braided copper wire tied in a figure-eight knot. How did a shoe remain dry inside after a night in tidal water, and who walked the bank to place it there?

    In this episode, we tell the story of the events from the morning Stanley Thompson found the shoe through Amanda Callahan’s three-day civilian inquiry, and the thread that led from a classified naval file to a confession decades later - can one woman’s notes and persistence reveal what the Navy sealed?

    Person: Lori Donnelly
    Date: September 9-10, 1943
    Location: Tidal cut near Slip Fourteen, Halverson Dry Dock, Dunmore, North Carolina
    Investigator: Amanda Callahan
    Confession: Diane Reynolds, May 1974

    - A retired caulker, Stanley Thompson, set eight trotlines and found seven with fish and the eighth holding a navy-blue woman's pump.
    - The shoe was a left-foot pump, size six, two-inch heel, brass buckle, with braided copper wire coiled inside in a figure-eight knot.
    - The shoe’s outer leather was damp but the inner lining was noted to be dry by the duty officer and Amanda Callahan the same morning.
    - Lori Donnelly’s body was recovered September 10, 1943, and the medical examiner recorded strangulation by braided copper wire; her right shoe was soaked through.
    - The case file was classified by the United States Navy within a week and remained sealed in a federal archive until a confession in May 1974.
