We’re back and we’re in Canada! Megan tries to speak French. Apologies in advance. BUT we are excited to shed light on this case.

In September of 1996, 15-year-old Melanie Ethier disappeared while walking home in northern Ontario. Her mom reported her missing later that day, but police have not found a shred of evidence related to her disappearance. Nearly 30 years later, she is still missing. Let’s help bring justice to Melanie’s case!

Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. A jury found Richard Allen guilty on all four counts in the Delphi double murder trial. Prosecutors say Allen brutally killed 13-year-old Abigail (Abby) Williams and 14-year-old Liberty (Libby) German in 2017. This week, Mallory and Megan discuss the ins and outs of the trial with FOX59 and CBS4’s Max Lewis, who was in Delphi for four weeks straight covering the testimony. You’ll hear new details about the case, the crime scene, excluded evidence, potential theories, and a whole lot more!

This week’s case is the definition of a buried byline. 12-year-old Nicolas Zavala disappeared in August of 2002 while living with his grandmother in Northwest Indiana. Despite being his temporary guardian, the boy’s grandmother waited a full week before reporting him missing. Eight months later, Nicolas’ remains were found on an Illinois farm. Not only is this case unsolved but it’s received little to no media attention. We have OPINIONS!

We’re sticking with the Halloween theme for this episode! Have you ever wondered why news media, law enforcement, and doctors warn you to check your child’s Halloween candy? This case is the reason why. Mallory dives into the man who killed Halloween, a.k.a. The Candy Man, and the heartbreaking murder of 8-year-old Timothy O’Bryan.

You guys, we’ve got a serial killer case on our hands! This week Megan takes a DEEP dive into a midwest nightmare. Between 1982 and 1984, dozens of teenage boys and young men in Indiana, Illinois, and Kentucky were brutally assaulted and killed. At least 21 victims died at the hands of Larry Eyler, who was dubbed the Interstate Killer. Buckle up because this is a long one! We’re going to talk about news coverage, a potential accomplice, Kathleen Zellner, and the badass woman (plus the police task force) that helped bring down this monster.

In this powerful guest episode, we dive into a deeply personal story with Lindsey Hull, Mallory’s lifelong best friend, former competitive gymnast, and a survivor of sexual abuse. Lindsey bravely shares her journey, including her decision in 2017 to join the lawsuit against disgraced U.S. Olympic doctor Larry Nassar. But for Lindsey, Larry was more than just a doctor—he was a family friend, a neighbor, and someone she once considered a safe haven from the abusive culture within her gymnastics organization. In this episode, Lindsey opens up about her relationship with Larry, the moment she realized she was a victim of his decades-long manipulation, and her fight for justice against him and his enablers. This one is a DOOZY.

This week, we’re taking a back seat to some of the more brutal crime cases we cover. Megan surprised Mallory with a white-collar CALAMITY centered around her favorite artist: Taylor Swift. At this point, we have all seen the massive success of the Eras Tour. But before our beloved blondie could kick off her largest concert venture to date she had to deal with the fallout of Ticketmaster’s registration and sale for the event. The outrage that followed led to multiple lawsuits and congressional hearings. Prepare for Mal’s soapbox and more than a few song references.

SWIPE for a pic of the heroes who helped Mal survive the Ticketmaster Great War 🫶🏼

🚨COLD CASE ALERT 🚨
21-year-old Jennifer Stockrahm was murdered nearly 30 years ago in the small town of Harmony, Indiana. She was shot in the chest before being set on fire inside her car, which was parked 100 yards away from her mother’s home. In the 27 years that have followed, her case has gotten little to no media coverage. We want to know why. This week we discuss the case that has become the definition of a buried byline.

Get ready to get MAD, y’all. *Trigger warning: abuse, sexual assault*

In 2013, three women were rescued after disappearing a DECADE earlier. Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry, and Gina DeJesus were held captive inside a Cleveland, Ohio home. They were tortured, r***d, and abused by a man named Ariel Castro. Castro was a long-time bus driver and father in the Cleveland Metropolitan School District. Megan breaks down the media coverage surrounding the case and shares some buried bylines within the narrative.

Today’s episode is a cold case from Mallory’s hometown of Lansing, Michigan... suggested by her 15-year-old, true crime-loving cousin. Thanks so much for the suggestion,

41-year-old Bernita White was shot and killed outside of the Potter Park Zoo. To make things even worse, it was in front of her 5-year-old daughter. This shooting sets the public into a panic, especially after police reveal she was shot from literal YARDS away. No one saw the shooter. Law enforcement quickly narrows down the suspect list. At the very top, her husband, Artis White, a detective sergeant for the Michigan State Police. It all goes off the rails from there. Listen now!
