It’s 1921, and 35-year-old Lena Clark has a problem. There’s money missing from her post office, but she’s about to point the finger of a former mail carrier, Fred Miltimore. Fred was more than just a coworker, though, and Lena is more than meets the eye. This case has murder, fortune telling, crystal balls, snakes, lies, snarky reporters, past lives (allegedly), even more lies, and a wayward preacher’s daughter.

In June 2023, hotel employees at a Holiday Inn in Marlborough, Massachusetts called 911 to report that a guest came into the lobby covered in blood, saying he’d just killed someone. When police arrived, they learned that this wasn’t the first time that Daniel Uhlman tried to murder his mom.

Today, 25-year-old Rudy Farias gave an interview alleging that his mom held him captive, drugged him, and sexually abused him for the past 8 years. Rudy says he ran away in March 2015 when his mom reported him missing, but he came back two days later. Since then, he says his mom has been threatening him that the police would come get him if he defied her. After 8 years of abuse, Rudy says he stole his mom’s credit card and ran away a few weeks ago. He ended up sleeping outside that church where the passerby found him. When police came, they called his mom, who brought him home. He refused an ambulance ride to the hospital, but his mom says she took him to the hospital. Some people close to the family have pointed out that his mom previously shared the same hospital pics of Rudy back in 2012, and several more people have come forward saying they knew Rudy under different names. We are continuing to follow this story and hope Rudy gets help. 😔
Y’all. Our local ABC affiliate is now reporting that the neighbors of Rudy Farias’ mom are claiming that he has been living with her the whole time he’s been missing—and that he wasn’t really missing. His mom reported him missing in March 2015 when he “didn’t return from walking the dogs.” He was found on Sun July 2nd by a “Good Samaritan” who said Rudy was wounded as if from a beating and sleeping outside a church. Police found documentation on him that led back to his family. His mom has said that he’s nonverbal and appears to have been beaten and held somewhere. But the neighbors say they know him as Dolph (short for Rudolph), and he wasn’t missing. What is happening here?? We will continue to follow this story and hope Rudy is ok.
Rudy Farias, then 17, disappeared on March 6, 2015 while walking his dogs in Houston. Authorities and community members searched for days but didn’t find him. On Sunday, July 2, 2023, someone found Rudy outside a church—alive. He was covered in bruises and cuts and isn’t speaking much, but he’s alive. Now 25, he’s recovering in the hospital. It’s unclear what happened to him at this time.
Responsible decisions are overrated 🤷🏻♀️
In December 2015, Jhordann Rust went on a trip to San Diego with her boyfriend. The pair checked into a hostel the night they arrived, but police arrested the boyfriend that same night. Jhordann spent most of the night on the phone with her mom and other family members–as well as a killer.

14-year-old Peter Zimmer m-ered his family. Given an absurdly short sentence, Zimmer started his life over as Jovan “Joe” Collier four years later. As Joe, he masqueraded through people’s lives, eventually meeting his birth mother and wooing a woman named Candy Williams.

The victim’s name was Tony, and someone stabbed him while he was out with a friend. The friend called Tony’s girlfriend and told her, “Tony’s gone.” Surveillance footage filmed the friend dumping Tony’s body onto the girlfriend’s lawn. The friend drives a grey SUV. Who does that???
