Skip the banter: around 00:09:14 depending on ads When Army Private LaVena Johnson was found dead in Iraq, her family was told it was a suicide.

Skip the banter: 00:10:20 When Timmothy Pitzen’s mother picked him up early from school in 2011, she said there was a family emergency, then spent several days traveling with him before being found dead in a motel room.

Skip the banter: 00:09:08 (give or take a minute depending on ads) James Bulger disappeared from a shopping center in Bootle in February 1993, and the case unfolded through CCTV, witness statements, and a growing realization that the usual assumptions did not apply. We walk through the moments that were missed in public, the inconsistencies in what people thought they saw, and what the investigation and trial later made clear while still leaving key questions unanswered.

Skip the banter: 00:07:41 (give or take a minute depending on ads) In May 2019, 15-year-old Riley Crossman disappeared from her home in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, sometime during an ordinary school night. What followed was a series of quiet red flags, overlooked moments, and conflicting statements that only became clear after Riley failed to show up for school. This episode closely examines the timeline inside the house, the unanswered texts, and the decisions that shaped the first critical hours of the investigation. Certain details did not line up from the very beginning, but it took time for anyone to understand why. Allison carefully walks through what was known, what was missed, and the detail that still raises the hardest questions. Support us and become a Patron!

Skip the banter: 00:07:33 Josh Hilberling was trying to leave. At 6'5", the former Air Force serviceman didn’t fit the usual image of a domestic violence victim, but court records, hospital visits, and a dismissed protective order all pointed to a volatile and escalating pattern of abuse in his young marriage. On a sweltering afternoon in Tulsa, everything came to a violent end when Josh fell 17 stories from a high-rise apartment window. His wife Amber admitted to pushing him, though whether it was self-defense or murder remains fiercely debated. Allison tells us the rest of this story that leaves one boy with no parents and two families forever asking what was really going on behind closed doors. Support us and become a Patron!

Skip the banter: 00:06:22 (give or take a minute depending on ads) In 2014, 14-year-old Breck Bednar was a bright, tech-savvy teenager who loved gaming and coding with his friends online. When a charismatic older gamer named Lewis began appearing in their chat group, claiming to be a 17-year-old entrepreneur with his own company and connections to the U.S. government, Breck was fascinated by someone who seemed to share his passion for technology. But as months passed, Breck's mother Lorin noticed disturbing changes. Her once-open son became secretive and distant, defending his new friend against her growing concerns. Despite her attempts to intervene, including contacting police about potential grooming, Lewis had already woven an invisible web of manipulation around her son. Breck's story exposes the terrifying reality of online predators who hide behind screens, exploiting the trust of vulnerable teens in spaces where they feel safest, and serves as a stark reminder that danger can enter our homes through something as ordinary as a gaming headset.

Skip the banter: 10:12 From the outside, the Reynolds family looked picture-perfect. A deeply religious couple raising their adopted daughter in sunny Coral Springs, Florida. But beneath the surface of baseball games, church choir practices, and shopping trips at the mall, something dark was brewing. When 17-year-old Nikki Reynolds became obsessed with her high school boyfriend, her parents watched helplessly as their once-thriving daughter spiraled into lies, manipulation, and increasingly erratic behavior. Then, on the evening of May 14, 1997, everything came to a violent head. What drove a teenager who once seemed to have it all to commit an act so unthinkable that even she couldn't believe what she'd done? Allison tells us the whole story. Support us and become a Patron!

Skip the banter: 00:08:21 (give or take a minute depending on ads) Jeanine Nicarico was home sick from school when someone kicked in the front door of her family’s quiet Naperville home. What followed was not just a horrific crime against a ten-year-old girl, but a decadeslong unraveling of truth, lies, and catastrophic failures within the justice system. Two young men (neither of whom matched the description of the killer) were sentenced to death based on manipulated confessions, junk science, and a system desperate for a conviction. Meanwhile, the real killer had already moved on to take more lives. Allison tells us the rest of this story that started with one little girl and exposed one of Illinois’ darkest legal disasters.

Skip the banter: 00:06:32 (give or take a minute due to ads) On a quiet spring night in 2012, the Cipriano family’s home in Farmington Hills, Michigan became the site of a savage and senseless betrayal. Nineteen-year-old Tucker Cipriano, adopted as a newborn and raised with love, broke into his own house with a friend, armed with baseball bats and a plan for money that spiraled into bloodshed. His father never stood a chance. His mother and brother barely survived. The only thing more painful than what happened that night is who did it, and why.

Skip the banter: 00:05:50 (depends on ads in beginning) It started with a young woman left for dead on the side of a road in Oklahoma, her blue high heel abandoned in the street. But the investigation into her so-called hit-and-run revealed a far more disturbing truth—this woman wasn't who anyone thought she was. What followed was a years-long unraveling of stolen identities, a child kidnapped from school at gunpoint, and a predator who used aliases the way most people use passwords. The woman known as Tonya Hughes had been kidnapped as a child and held captive for fifteen years by the man who later claimed to be her husband.

Skip the banter: 00:04:48 When Kari Baker was found dead in her bed, her husband, a respected Baptist preacher, told police it was a suicide. A typed note, a bottle of sleeping pills, and a tragic history of loss all seemed to confirm his story. But Kari’s mother couldn’t shake the feeling that something was deeply wrong, and when she started digging, things didn’t add up. What began as quiet suspicion turned into a full investigation that uncovered a disturbing past, a hidden relationship, and a plan far more sinister than anyone imagined.

Instead, she crossed paths with Blake Leibel, a man born into wealth and obsessed with control. On paper, he was a Hollywood creative with a dark, surreal graphic novel to his name.

Skip the banter: 00:08:13 (give or take a minute depending on ads) Pumpkin pancake recipe When 19-year-old Brian Cohee Jr. drove his car into the Colorado River, his parents thought it was just a mistake. But a day later, his mother made a chilling 911 call: she’d found something in his closet that no parent should ever see. As police began digging into Brian’s story, a missing person report came in—Warren Barnes, a kind and quiet man known around town for always having his nose in a paperback, hadn’t been seen in days. What unfolded next was a horrifying confession, spoken with a smile, by a teenager who’d been fantasizing about murder for years. Allison tells us the rest of this story.

Skip the banter: 00:07:00 (give or take ~30 seconds depending on ads) In 1998, Tom and Eileen Lonergan boarded a dive boat in Australia expecting a day exploring the coral-covered depths of the Great Barrier Reef. Instead, they surfaced to find the ocean empty—no boat, no crew, no one. What followed was a string of errors, oversights, and assumptions that left the couple stranded at sea, invisible to the very people who were supposed to ensure their safety. Theories about what happened in those final hours have never stopped swirling: were they victims of incompetence, a murder-suicide, or something they planned all along? Allison tells us the rest of this story that hinges on one fatal miscount and a message that might've been written just in time.

His family disagrees, pointing to gunshot residue on others, a cleaned bathroom, and a handgun with no fingerprints. Years later, they're still pushing for a proper investigation into what they believe was a staged scene and a covered-up murder. Petition: click here Support us and become a Patron!

Allison tells the incredibly sad story of the disappearance of 23-year old Amy Lynn Bradley while on a Royal Caribbean cruise. We go on cruises for memorable vacations, not to be kidnapped. Unreal what some people are capable of. This was originally released as our 2nd paid bonus episode, but with the release of the Netflix documentary "Amy Bradley is Missing" we thought it might be helpful to spread the word and possibly find Amy.

Skip the banter: 00:04:57 (give or take 30 seconds with ads) When a fire broke out inside a D.C. mansion just steps from the Vice President’s residence, first responders expected smoke, not a massacre. Inside, they found four people bound and tortured, including a 10-year-old boy, murdered after being held hostage for nearly 22 hours. A missing Porsche, a hard drive ripped from the wall, and a crust of leftover pizza left on the bed were the first clues in a case that shook the nation’s capital. But what unfolded in the courtroom raised deeper questions: did he act alone or was this a carefully orchestrated inside job? The victims were 46-year-old Savvas Savopoulos, his wife 47-year-old Amy Savopoulos, their 10-year-old son Philip Savopoulos, and their 57-year-old housekeeper Veralicia "Vera" Figueroa.

Skip the banter: 5:48 (give or take 30 seconds depending on ads) It was the Saturday before Thanksgiving when 22-year-old Dru Sjodin left work, walked through the mall, and called her boyfriend while heading to her car. Four minutes into the call, her voice shifted—distracted, tense. She said, “Okay, okay,” and the line went dead. He thought the call had dropped. By the time her abandoned car was found, night had fallen and the trail was already cold. What no one knew yet was that the voice on the other end of that call had just heard Dru’s final moments of freedom.

Skip the banter: 00:05:02 (give or take 30 seconds depending on how many sponsors) You ever hear something so strange it sounds like a made-up urban legend...until you realize it actually happened? This week, we talk about Ruthie Mae McCoy, a woman trying to piece her life together in one of Chicago’s most dangerous housing projects. She’d finally started turning things around, getting treatment, going back to school, planning her escape from a place that had swallowed so many lives. But then, she made a 911 call. She said someone was coming through her bathroom wall. What happened next is one of the most haunting true stories we’ve ever covered—eerie, tragic, and almost impossible to believe. If you think “Candyman” was just a movie, wait until you hear what really happened in apartment 1109.

She was ready for a night of fun with friends, her tent pitched by Hogsback Lake. But by morning, Maddy was gone.

Skip the banter: 00:05:18 (give or take 30 seconds depending on ads) A little girl with a name as gentle as Harmony should have had a life filled with bedtime stories, scraped knees, and warm arms to run into. Instead, Harmony Montgomery was handed off like paperwork between systems, disappearing into broken homes and blind spots. She was five years old. She had an eye condition that needed care, a laugh that stuck with people, and adults in her life who either couldn’t or wouldn’t protect her. For over two years, no one officially noticed she was gone. Not neighbors. Not schools. Not the agencies assigned to check in. This episode is not just about one child. It’s about the terrifying consequences of silence, apathy, and the cracks in a system that was supposed to be her safety net. You’ll walk away from this story thinking not only about Harmony, but about every child who doesn’t have a voice loud enough to be heard. And maybe you’ll question what we’re really doing when we say we’re protecting children. Support us and become a Patron!

Skip the banter (boo): 6:11 You know how some people just give you the creeps? This Sapp piece of garbage was next-level dark. It all starts with a woman named Una Timmons, just walking down the road one night in 1996, when Sapp pulls up offering a ride. Sounds innocent enough, right? But things quickly take a turn.

Skip the banter: 00:05:32 You’re out for a run, the trail stretching ahead, fresh air filling your lungs. It’s your time to unwind, to feel strong. But for Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old mom of five, that peace was shattered on a summer evening in 2023. She headed out on Maryland’s Ma & Pa Trail, a place she loved, and never came home. What happened to her—a brutal crime that shook a community—exposes a chilling reality: for women, even a simple walk can carry unspoken risks. Allison dives into Rachel’s story, a vibrant woman whose life was cut short, and the relentless search for her killer that spanned states and borders. We’ll talk ab out the dangers women face outdoors, the gut-wrenching details of her case, and the emotional questions it raises about safety, justice, and how we protect ourselves when the world feels unsafe. It’s a conversation that’ll hit you hard and leave you thinking long after it ends. upport us and become a Patron!

Forty days later, his body surfaces ten miles downstream, ruled an accidental drowning. But his parents, Pam and Jeff, refuse to accept it.

A dog named Dixie, a white Chevette, and a blond stranger sparked a 25-year hunt for justice. Three trials. DNA that wouldn’t stay buried. But the truth? It twisted through decades of lies, suspicion, and a killer who almost slipped away. What really happened that night—and why did it take so long to unmask the monster?

Skip the banter: 5:57 Allison's Amazon Addiction (socks) As you scroll through social media at the smiling, picture perfect images, much of what you see is only an illusion & a moment in time of a full life that’s happening outside the lens of the camera. You’re likely judging your own life in comparison to these images of what likely look like perfection; a gorgeous, tidy home, children in trendy, unblemished clothing, exotic travels to places you’ve yet to go. But these are just the carefully selected images the creator is choosing to share with the world as they present the best versions of their lives during their highest moments. People aren’t posting images of themselves laying on the couch after a rough day, the house in disarray, the fights between their children or spouses. We’re not privy to what happens after the camera is gone & in some cases, what we see is not at all reality. This is the story of a terrible mother, Ruby Franke.

Skip banter: 6:37 It was the evening of Sunday, February 17, 1991 & Northwest Airlines flight attendant Nancy Ludwig landed in the Detroit, Michigan suburb of Romulus & headed straight to a nearby hotel, just as she’d done countless times in the past. She’d been a flight attendant for the airline for the past fifteen years & had her routine down to a science. She gathered her bags & boarded the shuttle that would take her to a local for the night. Little did she know, she had just gotten off the last flight of her life.

On the evening of Thursday, December 2, 2010, a concierge within a luxury Melbourne, Australia apartment building, headed to a ground-floor garbage or refuse room in search of a broom. As she attempted to open the door, it appeared to be obstructed from inside the room. After several attempts, the woman was able to push the door open & this was when she was met with a very disturbing scene. She found a young woman lying in a pool of blood beside a garbage bin with blood streaked around the room.

Skip the banter: 7:00 On May 25, 1979, 6-year-old Etan Patz headed out of his New York City home to his bus stop only two blocks away. Etan’s first walk to the bus stop alone tragically ended up being the last walk of his life. Etan’s story changed things & caused parents to clutch their kids by the hand, unwilling to allow them to walk ahead on their own. It also was a catalyst for the missing-child panic & the “stranger danger” scare that erupted in the late 1970s & early 1980s & in response to his disappearance as well as the 1981 murder of Adam Walsh, Ronald Reagan formed a task force on missing & exploited children.
