July 6, 1988: twelve-year-old Sarah Cherry disappears while babysitting in rural Maine and is found days later murdered. Evidence linked to local farmer Dennis Dechaine led to his conviction, but the case is still debated because of gaps and disputes in the timeline.

This episode walks the day through chronologically—calls, sightings, physical links, and the contested minutes—asking whether the remaining time gaps leave room for reasonable doubt or if the pieces still point to a clear answer.

Picture a respectable farmwife who used personal ads to lure lonely men—and possibly murdered them for money. Belle Gunness’s life in La Porte, Indiana, is a chilling tale of recurring insurance payouts, vanished suitors, and a farmhouse fire that left a headless corpse and a hundred questions.

This episode examines Belle’s pattern of suspicious deaths, the discovery of human remains on her property, and the enduring mystery: did she perish in the 1908 blaze or fake her death and vanish? Tune in for a deep dive into one of America’s most unsettling unsolved true-crime cases.

June 13, 1977: on the first night of camp at Camp Scott, three young Girl Scouts—Lori Lee Farmer (8), Michele Heather Guse (9), and Doris Denise Milner (10)—were found dead near a trail to the showers. A disturbing warning note discovered weeks earlier was treated as a prank, and the tent where the girls slept was unusually isolated.

Investigators focused on escapee Gene Leroy Hart, but he was acquitted at trial and later died in custody. Modern DNA testing in 2022 suggested a link but was too degraded to be definitive. The case remains officially unsolved, and the camp never reopened, leaving a lasting wound on the community and the families who lost three children.
