Wetterling Ep 2
Monday Aug 14, 2023
Monday Aug 14, 2023
It took 27 years to find Jacob Wetterling. It turned out, it was a guy investigators suspected from almost the very beginning. No one is perfect, but why this man slipped through the investigative net needs to be looked at; because this man ended up having almost 27 years to victimize other boys.

Wetterling Ep 1

Monday Aug 07, 2023
In 1989, Jacob Wetterling was kidnapped from a farm town in Central Minnesota. His case became a catalyst for change in Child Protection and Sex Crimes law. Jacob's face became an icon for Missing Children. But, Jacob's abduction may have been preventable; not only that, but it calls into question the methodology and role of law enforcement in the search for the missing and the investigation of crimes.

January, 1937 in Peking China. A foreign woman's body is found in the Badlands. She is partially clothed and her body has been mutilated. The woman is soon identified as 19 year old Pamela Werner: last seen leaving the skating rink in the Legation District at 7:00 in the evening. Pamela was due home at 7:30 for dinner, but she did not make it. There are a host of suspects and possible reasons for her death. Can we ever do justice to Pamela, even after 85 years?

The Kidnapping of Sally Horner Part2
Monday Jul 10, 2023
Monday Jul 10, 2023
12-year-old Sally Horner had been a kidnap victim of pedofile, Frank La Salle, for almost two years (1950) when her neighbor convinces her to call her family and the police. Sally's story is tragic. It also exposes the ugliness in our society, today: if not just in the past.

The Kidnapping of Sally Horner Part 1
Monday Jul 03, 2023
Monday Jul 03, 2023
In 1948, 10-year-old Sally Horner is dared to steal a notebook by the school mean girls. This dare puts Sally right in the path of a pedophile who takes her on a cross-country trip in an attempt to hide their true relationship.
The ease in which convicted rapist, Frank La Salle, is able to take her from her family may make your brain boil. If anything could point out the flaws in our culture, this tale may just do it.

Monday May 22, 2023
It has taken a lifetime for crime fighters to catch-up to the Udens, but the net closes around them both; and even though the two 'lovebirds' seem devoted to one another, Gerald eventually takes an unexpected turn--OK, maybe not THAT unexpected.

Virginia and her sons, Richard and Reagan, are still missing, and the investigation finally becomes an actual investigation. All suspicion falls on Alice and Gerald, but where is the evidence? Unless investigators find something concrete, the Udens will remain free.
It's All Relative
I was listening to a True Crime podcast when the podcaster commented that they had had a problem finding scholarly information about why a person would commit familicide.
A spark flared in my mind, and this podcast was born.
