EP299: The Gunnison Mystery
1w ago00:49:40Tap to summarizeIn the spring of 2014, a champion wrestler from Texas arrived in the isolated mountain town of Gunnison, Colorado, carrying the kind of confidence that made people gravitate toward him. Dammion Heard was charismatic, impulsive, fiercely competitive, and only beginning to build the life he imagined for himself at Western State Colorado University. But after a chaotic night involving parties, rivalries, fractured relationships, and conflicting accounts from the people around him, Dammion suddenly vanished into the cold darkness of the Rockies. What followed would divide investigators, devastate a family, and leave behind a case filled with disputed timelines, unsettling witness statements, and questions that still refuse to disappear more than a decade later.SOURCES: 1) CBS News Pt. 12) CBS News Pt. 23) CBS News Pt. 34) Reddit Discussion

EP298: The Case of the She Devil
2w ago00:49:53Tap to summarizeOn the surface, it looked like the kind of life people spend decades trying to build—a long marriage, three children, a quiet suburban routine shaped by faith, loyalty, and years of sacrifice. But behind that carefully ordered life, something had begun to unravel in ways no one around them could fully see. What started as a secret relationship slowly transformed into a web of obsession, manipulation, and control that stretched across state lines and pulled multiple people into its orbit. And by the time anyone realized how far things had gone, an ordinary night in a Michigan library parking lot was about to become the center of a murder investigation that detectives would later describe as chillingly deliberate.SOURCES: 1) Oxygen: Killer Relationship with Faith Jenkins2) Oxygen: Snapped3) Sybil Ann Padgett v.

EP296: Highway of Silence
Apr 2800:33:07Tap to summarizeOn the highways that cut through the American Midwest, where headlights stretch into darkness and exits blur past without memory, a predator moved unnoticed for years. Larry Eyler didn’t look like a killer; he blended in, a quiet man drifting between Indiana and Illinois, offering rides to young men who would never be seen again. Their bodies would later be found miles apart, scattered across counties and backroads, each discovery raising questions no one yet knew how to connect. It wasn’t until the pattern emerged—too late for many—that investigators realized they were chasing not separate crimes, but a single, methodical force moving along the highways themselves. And even after his arrest, the full truth of what Eyler had done would remain buried, waiting until the very end to surface in a confession that revealed a scale of violence far greater than anyone had imagined.SOURCES: 1) Crime Library: Larry Eyler, the Highway Murderer2) The Roanoke Times: Killer Confesses to Killing 21 Men3) Crime Online: "Highway Killer" Larry Eyler's Victim Identified after 40 Years4) UPI: Lawyer: Eyler was serial killer5) The Washington Post: Killer Confessed to 21 More Deaths6) The Midwest Crime Files Podcast: The Highway Killer: The Victims of Larry Eyler7) Larry Eyler's Wikipedia Page

EP294: Sid and Nancy Pt 2 of 2
Mar 3100:34:02Tap to summarizeOn the morning of October 12, 1978, the Chelsea Hotel looked like it always did after a long New York night, with its hallways dim, its air heavy, and its secrets still clinging to the walls, but behind the door to Room 100, one of the most infamous mysteries in rock-and-roll history was waiting to be found. Inside, twenty-year-old Nancy Spungen lay bleeding on the bathroom floor, her life ended by a single stab wound, while just feet away, her boyfriend—Sex Pistols bassist Sid Vicious—stumbled through the room in a haze of drugs, shock, and confusion. What happened in those final hours would become more than a tabloid scandal or a punk-rock tragedy; it would become a case suspended somewhere between love story, crime scene, and cultural collapse, where every witness had a different version, every answer seemed to raise a darker question, and the truth, if anyone ever knew it, may have died inside that room.SOURCES: 1) "Please Kill Me: The Uncensored History of Punk" by Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain2) "Why We Love the Chelsea Hotel" -- The New York Historical Society3)Punk Rock Romeo and Juliet: Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen -- Crime Library4) Sid Vicious Accused of Murder -- Rolling Stone5) Flashback: Nancy Spungen Found Dead at Chelsea Hotel -- Rolling Stone6) The Arrest of Sid Vicious -- History Daily Podcast by Wondery7) Sid Vicious Biography Page8) Sid and Nancy: A Punk Mystery -- The Independent9) 16 Truly Disturbing Moments That Made Punk Rocker Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols Live Up to His Name10) My New York: Sid and Nancy -- The New York Post

EP292: Vashished Before Sunrise
Mar 1200:29:43Tap to summarizeIn the quiet winter of 1994, the small town of New Haven woke to a mystery that would refuse to fade.

Customers came and went, the coffee brewed, and the ordinary rhythms of a Sunday morning settled in. Then, sometime between one routine moment and the next, something went terribly wrong. Within hours, the register sat open, Heidi’s car remained in the parking lot, and a handful of chilling clues hinted that whatever had happened inside that small roadside store had unfolded in seconds.
