  • S03E12: A Life Lost in the Margins: The Murder of Martha Freitag
    2025/10/26
    In late July of 2018, a 54-year-old Akron, Ohio woman named Martha Freitag called police to see if the restraining order she previously had on her on-again-off-again, live-in boyfriend, 53-year-old David Callaghan could be reinstated. Her pleas for help went ignored, as she had been struggling with paranoid Schizophrenia and often called police on her boyfriend. Little did police know, this would be the last time Martha was heard from or seen alive again. Later that year in September, Martha's daughter Kim pressured police to investigate her disappearance. Police did not take her calls seriously, leaving Kim to do her own investigation until one day when the family recieved a strange text message explaining that David would bury someone in the fire pit in the back yard. Upon investigating, the body of Martha Freitag was uncovered in the fire pit, wrapped in plastic, bedding, burnt, and showing signs of blunt force trauma with a rope still tied around her neck.

  • S03E11: The Photograph on the Billboard: Searching for the Sodder Five
    2025/10/19
    In the early morning hours of December 25, 1945, the Sodder family which included George and Jennie Sodder along with their 10 children (one of which was away in war) awoke to a house fire in their Fayetteville, West Virginia home. George, Jennie, and four of their children escaped. The other five children did not. After an investigation, it was determined that the other five children must have perished in the fire, despite their remains not being uncovered. For the next 20+ years for George and 40+ years for Jennie, the family frantically chased every lead believing their children were kidnapped and may still be alive. To this day, no trace of the five missing children has ever been found. Was it grief that led the Sodders to exhaust themselves, never putting the case to rest, or were they onto something and the children were truly kidnapped?

  • S03E10: Buried Truths: Justice for Crystal McCrory Jones
    2025/09/25
    On February 9, 2023, 43-year-old mother of 2, Crystal McCrory Jones was found deceased inside her Louisiana home with a pillow over her face and a gunshot wound to the head. Less than 2 hours later, her death was ruled a suicide even though circumstances were very shady and almost no investigation had been conducted. Her husband, Tony Jones, was an ex deputy for the police department in charge of investigating Crystal's death.
    Tony had a history of verbally abusing Crystal as well as cheating, but the police department insists that does not make him a killer.
    Inconsistencies in the investigation piled up, with a botched autopsy report (Crystal's name was not spelled correctly, her time of death was scratched out and rewritten as a different time, her hair color, eye color, previous surgeries, and health conditions were all listed incorrectly), lies about the crime scene photos (the sheriff insisted the spent shell casing was seen in the photos but it was not found by Tony until 8 days after Crystal's death), important testing on the weapon and bullets was not even conducted until months after her death, and it just seemed as though Tony had all investigating parties as well as others in Oak Grove wrapped around his finger.
    Despite all of this, Crystal's sister, Jana, and brother, Dane have not given up on trying to have Crystal's case heard and properly investigated. The case remains open despite the lack of follow up investigations from the police department.

    This is where we come in. Please sign Jana's petition and help get the word out there. Crystal needs justice!!
