  • The Lobster He Brought Walked Past Her Latch and Killed Her

    The Lobster He Brought Walked Past Her Latch and Killed Her
    2026/09/09
    A live lobster on her kitchen counter in a locked Aldrich Cannery apartment the morning after she told him not to come - how did that expose him?

    The Lobster He Brought Walked Past Her Latch and Killed Her

    In this episode, we follow the timeline and small details investigators used to reconstruct what happened to Tammy Jensen after she sent a five-word warning. The episode traces key movements, access records, and a confession that introduced an unexpected name - could those pieces reveal who belonged at the scene?

    Person: Tammy Jensen
    Person: Terry Green
    Location: Aldrich Cannery Building, Dunmore Harbor
    Date: July 8-9
    Evidence: keycard entries at 20:47 and 23:11; live lobster purchased at Dockside Catch

    - Eleven days before, Tammy texted Terry Green: "Do not come here again," a clear boundary that preceded his visit.
    - Surveillance shows Green bought a live lobster and his keycard logged entry to the building within the same evening.
    - A maintenance report documented Tammy's apartment latch as defective and unrepaired; Green had worked inside and knew it did not hold.
    - Amy Jensen found the apartment from the outside: a live lobster on the counter through the glass, no visible sign of struggle, apartment locked.
    - During interrogation about the lobster and the death, Green named Patricia Morse unprompted, a name not previously in the investigation.

  • The contractor's retained key carried Henderson's coat to the church

    The contractor's retained key carried Henderson's coat to the church
    2026/09/08
    A volunteer’s winter coat is found in a locked church closet - how did that expose them?

    The contractor's retained key carried Henderson's coat to the church

    In this episode, we follow the sequence of ordinary absences and small records that became clues: a missing Tuesday signature at the museum, a Kroger receipt for a birthday card, and a winter coat found in a locked closet at St. Clement’s. How did a contractor’s retained key and a truck’s cedar scent reframe everything investigators thought they knew?

    Person: Edwin Henderson
    Date: Tuesday, June 3 (unsigned log) and Monday, June 9 (coat found)
    Location: St. Clement's Church closet
    Person: Raymond Fitzgerald
    Detail: Coat odor described as cedar from a truck cab

    - For six years Henderson signed the volunteer log every Tuesday without fail until his name went missing on June 3.
    - Henderson bought a Kroger receipt timestamped 9:14 p.m. that night, including a birthday card for his daughter due June 8.
    - A winter wool coat belonging to Henderson was found hanging inside a locked closet at St. Clement’s six days later; the closet lock had been serviced eight days earlier.
    - The repair log for the closet noted “Key retained by contractor - F,” and Fitzgerald, a contractor who lived nearby, had a drainage easement dispute with Henderson.
    - A neighbor recalled seeing Fitzgerald enter a service door to the church basement in 2019 without a key, showing prior unlogged access.

  • The extra key cut at the install erased Randy Gallagher

    The extra key cut at the install erased Randy Gallagher
    2026/09/07
    A tagged marina key sat on its hook while a second unrecorded key was cut during an install-how did that erase Randy Gallagher?

    The extra key cut at the install erased Randy Gallagher

    In this episode, we follow the chain of routine actions and paperwork around a marina lock replacement that coincided with Randy Gallagher’s disappearance. The episode traces the installation, the undocumented duplicate keys, and the puzzling timeline that turned ordinary procedures into the center of a missing-person case-what did those blank lines in the supply receipt mean?

    Person: Randy Gallagher
    Person: Howard Farrell
    Location: Lakeview Ridge marina
    Date: lock installed in 2022
    Event: three blank key copies on locksmith supply receipt

    - Farrell, a licensed locksmith, installed a new lock at the marina and documented a single key handed over.
    - During that installation a second key was duplicated; the duplicate was never recorded.
    - Randy walked County Road Seven every Thursday at the same time; someone watched him there for three consecutive Thursdays.
    - An ATM transaction using Randy’s debit card at 6:04 a.m. in Wausau matched Farrell’s phone ping at the same time.
    - Three blanks on a locksmith supply order correspond to three unaccounted-for key cuts made on the clock.

  • The suitcase rolled through the mud and proved murder

    The suitcase rolled through the mud and proved murder
    2026/09/06
    A suitcase with Howard Rafferty’s name arrives in Harlow Junction - he never does. How did that expose them?

    The suitcase rolled through the mud and proved murder

    In this episode, we follow the sequence of physical and documentary clues that link a missing freight coordinator to a rolling suitcase and a pickup truck’s odometer of evidence. The story traces the people, places and small decisions that created the trail - and asks how those traces point to responsibility.

    Person: Howard Rafferty
    Person: Kent Sullivan
    Location: Harlow Junction, New Mexico
    Event: Unclaimed suitcase on six fifty-five train from El Paso
    Evidence: river sediment on suitcase wheels; DNA in Sullivan’s truck; fuel receipt from Hatch

    - A baggage attendant, Sylvia Mack, unzipped an unclaimed bag after it sat at Harlow Junction for a full day and found Howard’s powered-down phone tucked under a shirt.
    - Howard, a forty-seven-year-old freight logistics coordinator, knew the six fifty-five train schedule intimately and would have booked a ticket if he’d left town.
    - That Thursday night Howard was at a regular poker game at Pete Corda’s, made a final notebook entry at 10:38 p.m., then called Kent Sullivan around 11:00 p.m.
    - Kent Sullivan’s alibi placed him in Albuquerque, but a fuel receipt from Hatch at 11:58 p.m. put his truck on the route between Harlow Junction and the Mimbres River.
    - Forensics found river mud embedded in the suitcase wheels and trace biological material matching Howard inside Sullivan’s pickup, connecting three scenes by three different physical surfaces.

  • The datebook page that marked C.G.'s questions and unraveled her life

    The datebook page that marked C.G.'s questions and unraveled her life
    2026/09/05
    A neighbor’s question and a torn datebook page leave a mother holding the clue that might expose who watched her daughter vanish; who watched her?

    The datebook page that marked C.G.'s questions and unraveled her life

    In this episode, we follow a household's routines and the objects that recorded them-texts, timecards, a datebook and a cat’s insulin log-to trace the moments that became evidence. How did a neighbor’s questions, a missing emoji, and a torn calendar page come to matter?

    Person: Lauren Henderson
    Person: Diane Henderson
    Person: Person: Clifford Gallagher
    Event: Disappearance
    Location: 4 Sycamore Terrace, Dellwick

    - A plain envelope arrived six years after the funeral containing Lauren’s datebook, its pages ending abruptly at March 10 with later pages torn out.
    - Lauren kept meticulous logs-work notes, client schedules, and a twice-daily insulin log for her cat Miso-that established a predictable routine.
    - Neighbor Clifford Gallagher lived two doors down at 6 Sycamore Terrace and worked as an HVAC contractor with access to private home spaces and timetables.
    - A timecard showed Renee Gallagher regularly left at 4:30 p.m., creating a weekly 30-minute window when Lauren would be home alone.
    - Lauren’s last text at 4:45 p.m. lacked her habitual smiling-face emoji, and her datebook’s last intact page recorded: “C.G. - asked again.”

  • The altered dispatch date that cornered a killer

    The altered dispatch date that cornered a killer
    2026/09/05
    A propane tech’s altered dispatch date and a single orange fiber link a service visit to a murder scene - how did that altered date expose them?

    The altered dispatch date that cornered a killer

    In this episode, we follow Detective Susan Bennett as she reconstructs the night Cheryl Long died, tracing prints in the snow, a cold chamomile mug, and a trail of fibers that don’t add up. What discrepancies in records and physical evidence force a fresh look at who had access to the house?

    Person: Victim - Cheryl Long
    Person: Detective - Susan Bennett
    Person: Suspect - Paul Ward
    Location: Deschutes County
    Event: altered dispatch date in company records

    - Thirteen boot prints in fresh snow led away from the house and no prints returned.
    - Cheryl’s chamomile mug sat untouched on the windowsill, indicating a sudden interruption.
    - Neighbor Tom Greer had a house key but boot size and fibers excluded him.
    - Paul Ward serviced the propane account, knew of an unlocked crawl-space hatch, and drove a work truck.
    - An Orange Thinsulate fiber from Ward’s jacket was found on Cheryl’s desk chair while the dispatch log showed a deleted three-day gap.

  • The thawed frost heave that pushed a hand out of the field

    The thawed frost heave that pushed a hand out of the field
    2026/09/05
    A man walking Field Fourteen finds a hand pushed through frozen earth, ring on its finger - has thaw revealed a hidden burial?

    The thawed frost heave that pushed a hand out of the field

    In this episode, we follow the discovery that upended a quiet January morning in Harlowe County and trace the routines, leases, and weather events that set the scene. How did a lease, a broken lock, and an unexpected thaw conspire to reveal what someone thought was buried forever?

    Person: Steven Barnes
    Person: Kelly Jenkins
    Person: Derek Jenkins
    Person: Roger Padgett
    Date: September 29 (lease signed); January 7 (thaw)

    - Steven Barnes was cutting across Field Fourteen when something low to the surface caught the light and he realized it was a hand.
    - The hand wore a turquoise and silver ring that Derek Jenkins said his mother never removed, and that detail prompted identification before lab results.
    - Roger Padgett signed a lease on Field Fourteen weeks before Kelly Jenkins disappeared and chose the site after mapping access points and a broken service-entrance lock.
    - The burial depth was about fourteen inches-shallow enough to dig alone yet chosen to avoid routine agricultural disturbance.
    - A rapid thaw to 48°F over two days, followed by a refreeze, caused frost-heave that pushed objects from a shallow burial toward the surface.

    The Nightstand Clock That Recorded When He Broke In

    The Nightstand Clock That Recorded When He Broke In this episode, we walk through the morning a neighbor found Diane Hansen's screen door swinging and her house silent, with a single blinking clock preserving a crucial time.
