  • The Internet Lies of Sharee Miller: Part Four
    2026/04/29
    As Sharee Miller's case headed to trial in 2000, the internet evidence slated to be used against her was also on trial as the prosecution and defense fought it out. When the case began in December 2000, Sharee had found a lawyer who was ready to try and keep up with her story to keep her out of jail, and another lawyer willing to keep up with the story to try and put her away. Still, it would take another 16 years and more court battles before Sharee was finally ready to tell the truth. (Part 4 of 4)

    (This episode contains description and discussion of suicide. Listener discretion is advised.)

For investigators in Michigan, the case wouldn’t move forward until the middle of February 2000, when Jerry opened up a Pandora’s box of evidence that Sharee could not escape from, with a devastating final decision.

  • The Internet Lies of Sharee Miller: Part One
    2026/03/25
    The story of Sharee Miller and her crime has been told many times before, most notably through a TV movie based on the book written about the case, but the reason why it’s so oft-told is because it has a few distinctions-- it made history for all of the wrong reasons, and it only truly finished up about ten years ago now. This week on Thumbing Through the Archives, we take a look at the background of the internet and Sharee Miller. (Part 1 of 4)

    This week, we're diving back into the story of Sarah Haviland, getting into her trial, punishment, and other finer details of the case. While we left off our last episode with a coroner’s jury heading to Sarah’s door on Saturday, December 16, 1865, let us rewind a bit, to the start of that week, and review the actions a mother took in 1865 that turned this story into a tragedy.

  • The "Passing On" of the Haviland children: Part One
    2025/11/12
    When this case took place, the American Civil War had only ended some seven months earlier, and many were trying to make sense of their lives and losses. However, this tragedy happened in a Michigan home seemingly untouched by the war between the states, with the main perpetrator bringing about an event that seemingly made some sense at the time, but makes little sense now. This is the story of spiritualist Sarah Haviland, and the tragic "passing on" of her children in 1865.

  • The Bombing (and Survival) of Charlene Dell
    2025/10/01
    A little more than two months before Timothy McVeigh and former Decker resident Terry Nichols committed the Oklahoma City Bombing of 1995, there was another bombing that rocked the thumb area. It wasn’t of any government building— in fact, it didn’t target a building, or a group of people, but just one person. That person was Charlene Dell, and as she stepped out of her office that February afternoon, engulfed in flames, no one expected her to come out the other side. But she did, and this is her story.
