    A Voice Broadcasts Live as She Dies: The WMLF Murders

    A radio transmitter in a converted grain tower outside Mill Fork went live at 10:40 PM on March 8, 1937, broadcasting sixty thousand listeners the sound of a woman seated at the console as she was strangled with copper wire; who turned on the transmitter and why was a jar of strawberry preserves placed beside her? The unexplained details-reels still turning, a half-hitch knot tied with 14-gauge wire from the station spool, and a padlock shown later to be properly seated-leave one central question: who with access and skill staged this scene for thousands to hear?

    In this episode, we present the sequence of events, the key people at WMLF, and the physical evidence investigators recorded at the transmitter building, ending on the unresolved question that drew the county to the grain tower that spring night.

    Person: Brenda York
    Date: March 8, 1937
    Location: WMLF transmitter building, converted grain tower outside Mill Fork, Indiana
    Case: WMLF murders
    Investigator: Marvin Tillman

    - 10:40 PM: transmitter went live seventeen minutes after the 10:23 PM sign-off tone.
    - 60,000: estimated listening area households across two counties who could have heard the broadcast.
    - 55: Brenda York's age at the time of death.
    - 14-gauge: copper wire used to strangle York, cut from a spool inside the transmitter cabinet.
    - 12 jars: Brenda sold preserves twelve jars at a time for 15 cents each at Farmer's Exchange; the last batch sold out Feb 6, 1937.

  • The Stamp That Killed: How One Passport Unraveled a Murder Network

    The Stamp That Killed: How One Passport Unraveled a Murder Network
    2026/09/09
    The Stamp That Killed: How One Passport Unraveled a Murder Network

    A county post-office clerk found a passport with the same El Paso entry stamp recorded twice for the same date - genuine federal ink, genuine seal - and four days after she reported it she was dead. How did a single impossible stamp turn a routine document into a murder weapon, expose a narcotics network, and lead to a man’s execution?

    In this episode, we tell the story of what happened after a young woman noticed an impossible discrepancy in a passport and went to ask questions: what she saw at the customs counter, where the passport was found, and how one FBI agent traced a fiber thinner than a human hair to uncover the truth that others missed. What exactly tied that stamp to murder and a wider smuggling operation?

    Person: Shannon Whitley
    Date: February 10, 1947 (death discovered)
    Location: Carrow River depression, near Lassiter
    Document: Passport in name of Helen Gard with two El Paso entry stamps dated August 14, 1945
    Witness: Walter Obie, Tres Cruces customs counter employee

    - Shannon Whitley was 23 years old and worked the counter at the Lassiter post office, wiring $20 monthly to her mother in Tucson.
    - The passport showed two identical El Paso entry stamps for August 14, 1945 - same port, same date, same direction - applied with genuine federal ink and seal.
    - Shannon bought a bus ticket to Tres Cruces on February 8, 1947, to report the passport irregularity in person and was last seen leaving the customs counter that day.
    - Her body was found two days later, on February 10, 1947, forty feet from the Carrow River with the passport in the interior pocket of her coat, four inches from her heart.
    - Walter Obie, who had worked the Tres Cruces customs counter for eleven years, later identified a photograph of Shannon and confirmed her visit on February 8, 1947.

  • Fisherman Pulls a Glove from the River: The Murder of Jessica Price

    Fisherman Pulls a Glove from the River: The Murder of Jessica Price
    2026/09/08
    Fisherman Pulls a Glove from the River: The Murder of Jessica Price

    Cold river, beeswax-sealed paper, and a certified brand transfer filed two days before a woman was found dead: a fisherman's hook pulled a glove that upended the official accident ruling. Who would file legal claim to Jessica Price's land while her body lay buried, and why was the transfer signed in her name?

    In this episode, we follow the documents, the ledger entries, the Registry logbook, and the people who crossed paths with Jessica Price in the days before her death to understand what the evidence suggests about her final days and the transfer of Bench Creek Run. Could the timing of the December 28th filing and the glove in the river point to forgery or conspiracy?

    Person: Jessica Price
    Date (death found): December 30, 1882
    Document date: December 28, 1882
    Location (where glove found): Aldine River, January 9, 1883
    Witness on transfer: George Aldiss

    - A black kid-leather left glove contained a beeswax-treated certified brand transfer folded inside and was weighted with a river stone.
    - The transfer document relinquished the Tumbling P brand and Bench Creek Run from Jessica Price to Leon Bishop, dated December 28, 1882.
    - Jessica Price's final ledger entry is dated December 27, 1882 and reads "meeting with 'B' about Bench Creek water access"; the ledger entries after December 28 are blank.
    - The Registry filing copy of the transfer was already on file when investigator Steven Burns checked the Registry on January 10, 1883, yet no after-hours entry appears in the Registry's logbook for December 28.
    - Locksmith Henry Voss found fresh scoring on the Registry's rear delivery door bolt housing, indicating a later-made tool was used to open it; Leon Bishop's warehouse faces that alley across roughly forty yards.
