Crime Salad

In November 2025, 18-year-old Anna Kepner boarded the Carnival Horizon cruise ship with her family for a six-night Caribbean vacation. On the final sea day, she was found dead, hidden under her bed inside her own cabin. Surveillance footage reportedly showed only one person entering and leaving the stateroom during that window: her 16-year-old stepbrother. The FBI took over the investigation, and federal homicide charges were eventually filed against the minor suspect. But as the legal process unfolded, court filings, leaked messages, and accusations from family members revealed a much more complicated picture of what was happening inside that household long before anyone boarded that ship. In this episode, Ashley and Ricky break down the full timeline of Anna Kepner's case. The family cruise, the discovery, the cause of death, the suspect's mental health history and missed medication, the explosive custody battle between the parents, the social media firestorm, and the questions that still have no answers. Anna was a diver, a cheerleader, a Georgia Bulldogs fan, and an aspiring Navy recruit and K-9 officer from Titusville, Florida. She was 18 years old with her whole life ahead of her. She deserves to be remembered for who she was. Content Warning: This episode discusses violence, domestic abuse, and the death of a young person.

Celebrating years of Crime Salad stories! Here is a throwback: updates at the end of the episode! On the morning of April 13, 2011, nursing student Holly Bobo was abducted from her family's home in Darden, Tennessee, while her brother watched from inside the house, believing she was walking with her boyfriend. What followed was a three-and-a-half-year search that gripped a small town and drew national attention. When arrests finally came, so did shocking confessions, but allegations of coerced statements, fabricated evidence, and prosecutorial misconduct have left many wondering: was justice truly served? Ashley and Ricky break down the case, the controversial trial, and the lingering questions that remain.

In the summer of 2021, in the quiet river city of Auburn, Maine, 27-year-old Celeste Doghmi was at a turning point. After years of struggle and addiction, Celeste had completely turned her life around. She was a devoted new mother, had purchased her first-semester nursing textbooks, and was sharing her pride and love for her infant son on social media every day. But following a harrowing final video call with a close friend, one that captured a violent domestic dispute, Celeste's digital and physical footprint vanished. In this episode of Crime Salad, Ashley and Ricky dive into one of the most unsettling missing persons cases in recent Maine history. We explore the legal reality of being classified as a "voluntary missing adult," the dark mechanics of coercive control and isolation, and the systemic failures that allowed a young mother to go unreported for nearly two years before authorities were even alerted. Was it a voluntary exit, or was the home life described by investigators as a "war zone" a precursor to something far more sinister? We examine her partner's criminal history, the ongoing investigation by the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit, and the tireless fight by Celeste's mother, Stephanie, to find justice for her daughter and her grandson.

On the night of January 6th, 1981, Lonene Rogers finished her work shift, picked up her two young children from the babysitter, and came home to an argument with her estranged husband. By morning, she was gone. No footprints in the snow. No activity on her Social Security number. Her hearing aids, glasses, purse, and car were all still there. Lonene was a profoundly deaf woman from northwestern Pennsylvania who refused to let her disability define her. She was strong-willed and warm, a devoted mother, and by early 1981 she was finally ready to leave a troubled marriage and build a new life. Instead, she vanished in the middle of a blizzard and was never seen again. For 44 years, her disappearance went unsolved. Her parents died without answers. Her children grew up without her. And her husband, Clinton "Bud" Rogers, maintained the same story: he woke up and she was simply gone. In this episode, we trace Lonene's life from her childhood in Youngstown, Ohio, through the marriage that her own family saw warning signs in from the start to the night she disappeared and the search that turned up nothing. We also follow her daughter Alison, who spent decades trying to distance herself from the tragedy before deciding, in 2021, to dedicate herself to finding the truth. Alison's fight took her through court battles, advocacy for a proposed new law called Lonnie's Law, and years of pressure on investigators and the public alike. In November 2025, that fight finally produced a result. After more than four decades of silence, Bud Rogers confessed. This is Lonene's story, and it is also the story of a daughter who refused to let her mother be forgotten. Content warning: This episode contains descriptions of domestic violence, child neglect, and a murder confession. If you are in the northwestern Pennsylvania area, Lonene's family invites you to join a peaceful gathering outside the Crawford County Courthouse at 903 Diamond Park Square in Meadville, PA on Monday, March 30, 2026, from 9 to 11 am. A hearing in her case will be taking place inside the courthouse that morning, and the community is gathering outside in her memory and in solidarity with victims of domestic violence and the missing and murdered. She will never stand alone again. 💜 National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-7233 Text START to 88788.  You are not alone.  https://www.thehotline.org/ Justice for Lonene Rogers Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/285829136570490/   Sign the petition for Lonnie’s Law: https://c.org/mMwHNqtRGC Alison's book, "A Daughter's Journey and Story of Resilience," is available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/0gWrklLE Support Crime Salad: Merch Crime Salad Ad-Free option: Patreon Learn more about your ad choices.

On August 16, 2015, Sara Easton, a 31-year-old mother of three from Yuba City, California, died from a gunshot wound in her bedroom. Investigators quickly moved toward a suicide ruling. Her family never accepted it. Sara's husband was Aaron Easton, then-Chief of the Marysville Police Department. And the more forensic details emerged, including the autopsy findings, the toxicology results, the witness accounts, and the history of alleged domestic abuse, the more questions piled up around a case that many believe was never properly investigated. Was this a suicide? A homicide? And did Aaron Easton's position in law enforcement shape the way this case was handled? In this episode, Ashley and Ricky break down the full timeline of Sara's death, examine the forensic and autopsy evidence, explore the conflicts of interest that shadowed the investigation, and look at the later allegations against Aaron Easton that have kept this case under scrutiny for nearly a decade. Sara's family is still pushing for answers. This is their story and hers.

On a cold November morning in 2011, a 911 call shattered the silence along Interstate 77 near Marietta, Ohio. A car sat abandoned against a guardrail. Its lights were on. The driver was nowhere to be found. Minutes later, another call came in. A body had been discovered in the roadway. What followed should have been a straightforward investigation. There were crash reports, phone records, witness statements, and forensic evidence. But as the details began to surface, the story became anything but clear. The death of Jaleayah Davis has raised questions for more than a decade. Questions about what really happened on that dark stretch of highway. Questions about whether this was truly an accident or something far more complicated. In this episode of Crime Salad, we take a closer look at the timeline, the inconsistencies, and the pieces that don’t seem to fit. Because sometimes the truth isn’t just hidden. It’s buried beneath the version everyone accepted.  Try Miracle Made for yourself: https://trymiracle.com/CRIMESALAD Use code CRIMESALAD to claim your free 3-piece towel set and save over 40% Learn more about your ad choices.

His death was ruled a suicide, but the circumstances surrounding it have continued to raise questions. In this episode of Crime Salad, we examine Andrew’s case and the broader risks tied to confidential informant agreements, including the pressures placed on young or first-time offenders and the lack of consistent oversight and safety.

*Listener discretion is advised. This episode contains discussion of sexual violence, severe physical injury, and death. In the early morning hours of May 2003, a piercing fire alarm shattered the silence inside Hugh Poland Hall at Western Kentucky University. Students poured out into the dark, confused and half-asleep, unaware that behind one closed dorm room door an 18-year-old freshman was fighting for her life. This episode of Crime Salad examines the brutal attack on Katie Autry, a case that shocked the WKU campus, raised questions about campus safety, and continues to spark debate more than two decades later. Ashley and Ricky break down the timeline, the investigation, courtroom developments, and the lingering controversies surrounding one of the most disturbing true crime cases in Bowling Green, Kentucky. From the initial emergency response inside Room 214 to the legal aftermath and public reaction, this episode explores how a night meant to be ordinary turned into a tragedy that still resonates with students, families, and true crime followers today.

Ryder was a medically fragile child living with Sanfilippo Syndrome Type IIIB, a rare and terminal neurological disease that required constant specialized care. For years, his survival depended on strict medical routines, equipment management, and a caregiver trained to respond to emergencies. Then a custody battle moved his case from hospital rooms into courtrooms, where legal procedure began to outweigh medical warnings. In this episode, we examine the timeline of court decisions, ignored medical directives, and the devastating consequences that followed. This is not a mystery of who did it. It is a case that raises difficult questions about how family courts handle medically fragile children, what happens when expert medical advice is sidelined, and whether systems meant to protect can sometimes fail the very people they are designed to serve. This episode contains discussion of severe childhood illness and death. Listener discretion is advised.

On December 7, 2003, 13-year-old Daniel Morcombe disappeared while waiting for a bus beneath the Kiel Mountain Road overpass on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. What should have been a routine trip to Sunshine Plaza became one of the largest missing child investigations in Queensland history, spanning years of public tips, shifting timelines, and missed opportunities. In this episode of Crime Salad, Ashley and Ricky trace Daniel’s final known movements, the early police response, the flood of leads that overwhelmed investigators, and the long road to answers. Eight years later, an extraordinary undercover police operation finally drew out a confession from convicted child sex offender Brett Peter Cowan and led detectives to Daniel’s remains. Cowan was later convicted of murder, indecent treatment of a child, and interfering with a corpse. We also examine the lasting impact of Daniel’s case, including major procedural reforms in Queensland and the ongoing work of the Daniel Morcombe Foundation to promote child safety education.

In late spring 2009, Florida State University students in Tallahassee, Florida were wrapping up finals when 23-year-old Rachel Hoffman became the center of a police operation that would end in tragedy. In this episode of Crime Salad, we break down the Rachel Hoffman case, focusing on how a “controlled” and “by-the-book” confidential informant (CI) operation unraveled, and why officers reportedly waited more than 90 minutes after her last contact before launching a search. Rachel Hoffman was a college student with big plans, described as driven and fearless, working toward her future when she was asked to assist law enforcement as an informant during a drug sting in Tallahassee. What happened next raised serious questions about informant safety, police procedures, and accountability when undercover operations go wrong. We cover the timeline, the decisions made leading up to that night, and the broader issue of how confidential informants are used in drug investigations, especially when the informant is young, vulnerable, or under pressure. This is the story of Rachel Hoffman, and the failures that followed.

Hours later, her partner, Christopher Grover, was found dead, and Nikki was arrested. As investigators uncovered years of documented domestic violence, sexual assault, coercive control, and disturbing evidence of abuse, the case became a flashpoint for how the justice system treats criminalized survivors.

Crime Salad steps into Weird History, traveling back to the early 1900s, when a glowing new element promised progress, beauty, and modern life. In this episode of Weird History by Crime Salad, we explore the rise of radium mania, from the young women who became known as the Radium Girls, to the powerful corporations that insisted radium was safe while workers grew sick and died. We touch on crumbling jaws, altered death certificates, and why early causes of death were quietly labeled as syphilis instead of radium poisoning. Names like Grace Fryer and Mollie Maggia emerge as whispers of a much larger truth. But the danger was not limited to factories. While workers were suffering, wealthy Americans were drinking radium by choice. Products like Radithor promised vitality and youth, until cases like Eben Byers forced the country to pay attention. From glowing watches and military dials made with Undark, to radium water crocks, cosmetics, alarm clocks, toys, and other everyday items, radioactive products found their way into homes across America. This episode looks at what happens when science, profit, and blind trust collide, and how the voices of the Radium Girls ultimately changed workplace safety and radiation laws forever. Sometimes the most dangerous things are the ones that glow.

Twenty-year-old Kaylene Marie Oehling disappeared from Etna, Pennsylvania, on January 10, 2020. What followed were years of confusion, frustration, and heartbreaking silence. At the center of this story is her father, Jason Oehling, whose relentless determination to find answers has never faded. For more than three years, Jason pushed for movement in a case that had stalled almost from the beginning. Then, in March 2023, Kaylene’s remains were unexpectedly discovered in a wooded area miles from where she was last seen. Much of what we share in this episode does not come from detailed police reports or official statements. Instead, it comes from Jason himself, someone who has been outspoken across social media, news interviews, and podcast appearances as he fights for clarity in his daughter’s case. We also spoke directly with Jason to confirm the details discussed in this episode. This is one of those cases where a family carries the weight of telling the story. Public information is limited. The timeline is fragmented. Investigators have not identified a cause or manner of death, and no one has ever been charged. Still, Jason continues to push forward, driven by love and the belief that the truth is still out there. In this episode, we walk through the known timeline of Kaylene’s disappearance, the recovery of her remains, the years of advocacy by her family, and the urgent need for answers. This is a case that has haunted a community and one that deserves far more attention. _______________________________________ Crime Salad Live Murder Mystery Event Get tickets here:  https://www.pave.live/crimesalad • KMNO – Help for the Missing and Murdered https://www.facebook.com/people/KMNO-Help-For-The-Missing-Murdered/61563347895168/ Justice for Kaylene – Community Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/480311013138270/ Public Petition: https://www.change.org/p/justiceforkaylene-kaylene-oehling  Submit a Tip  If you have any information, no matter how small it may seem, please reach out. • Allegheny County Police Homicide Unit  412-473-1200 • Anonymous Tip Line  https://allegheny.crimewatchpa.com Kaylene’s Memorial Fund  GoFundMe: GoFundMe Crime Salad Merch: https://crimesaladpodcast.dashery.com/ Ad-free & bonus episodes:Patreon.com/crimesaladpodcast Thanks for Supporting Crime Salad!

Southern Oregon is known for its stunning summer landscapes, remote forests, and quiet mountain towns. But in the beauty of Josephine County, isolation and danger often live side by side. In late June of 2020, 45-year-old Fauna Frey set out on a short drive through Grants Pass and the surrounding mountain roads, a route filled with winding highways, dense forests, and long stretches with no cell service. Somewhere along that journey, Fauna vanished without a trace. In this episode, Ashley and Ricky explore the rural communities of Southern Oregon, where abandoned mining towns, thinly stretched law enforcement, and high crime rates create the perfect environment for disappearances to go unnoticed. Her car, her belongings, and a series of strange clues left investigators puzzled and her family desperate for answers. This is the story of a woman who went missing on a warm June afternoon in 2020, a case that blends mystery, isolation, and the harsh realities of searching for a missing person in Oregon’s most rugged terrain. If you follow missing persons cases, unsolved disappearances, rural true crime, or stories centered around Southern Oregon and Josephine County, this episode will take you deep into one of the region’s most haunting mysteries. Listen as we break down the timeline, the evidence, the environment, and the theories surrounding the disappearance of Fauna Frey.  If you know anything, please contact the Josephine County Sheriff’s Office tip line at 541-359-5638, or email [email protected].

In the summer of 1983, 27-year-old Teresa “Terry” Peroni disappeared from a remote counterculture community in rural Oregon. For years, rumors circulated about communes, drugs, and the controlling man she had last been seen with. Her family searched, asked questions, and followed every lead, but Terry’s trail went cold. Her name slowly faded from public memory. In 1997, human remains were discovered in the Oregon wilderness, but they were never linked to Terry. It wasn’t until 2024, more than four decades after she vanished, that new forensic technology finally confirmed the truth. Her remains were identified. The case was reopened. And the man long suspected in her disappearance was arrested across state lines. This episode follows Terry’s journey for independence, the dangerous world she stepped into, the failures that allowed her case to go cold, and the small group of people who refused to let her story be forgotten.

In January 2011, 27-year-old teacher Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her Philadelphia apartment, Unit 603 at the Venice Lofts.

In August of 1996, 11-year-old Trudy Appleby vanished from her neighborhood in Moline, Illinois, leaving behind one of the most haunting mysteries in the Quad Cities. There was no sign of a struggle, no clear witnesses, and no immediate answers. For nearly three decades, her case remained unsolved. But behind the headlines, Trudy’s father never stopped fighting. From the very beginning, he insisted he knew who was responsible. While police chased false leads and dead ends, he pointed to the same small circle of men—names he repeated year after year, long before investigators finally confirmed them as persons of interest. In August 2025, almost exactly 29 years after Trudy disappeared, an arrest was finally made. The breakthrough came too late for her father, who passed away without seeing justice—but it proved he had been right all along. This is the story of Trudy Appleby: a child gone without a trace, a family’s relentless search for truth, and the decades-long fight to hold those responsible accountable in the Quad Cities’ most infamous missing child case. Please contact the Moline Police Department (Illinois) - Missing Persons Unit - 1-309-797-0407 OR your local FBI if you have any information.

On the night of April 17th in 1990, Deborah Waggoner had what seemed like an ordinary plan. Around 7 PM, she left her South Greensburg home in her faded green 1976 Chevrolet Malibu. She told her boyfriend, Charles Stader, that she was headed to the nearby coin-operated Carbon Car Wash to clean her car. It was close by, so Charles didn’t expect her to be gone for more than an hour. Before she left, he’d asked her to grab a pack of cigarettes on her way home, and she agreed. That was the last time anyone saw Deborah alive.

Most commonly known as Heather Turner—was found unresponsive on the bathroom floor of the home she shared with her husband. The shower was still running, and she had a gunshot wound to the head. Heather's death happened at a time when several things in their lives were raising red flags. Allegedly, Heather was planning to leave the relationship with Andy the very next day. But here we are, nearly a decade later, and her case remains in limbo—officially labeled as "undetermined." In 2019, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation claimed to have handed over their findings to the District Attorney. But the DA’s office says they never received them. Meanwhile, local police say their hands are tied, and Heather’s family continues to be left in the dark. Adding to the unease are chilling reported threats like, “If I could do this to Heather, what makes you think I couldn’t do this to you?” —allegedly said by Andy to his girlfriend, who came into the picture after Heather's death. Join us as we break down the red tape and take a closer look at a case that seems deliberately stalled—in a community where some believe turning up the silence on her case will not do any good.

When Irish father Jason Corbett relocated to North Carolina with his two children, it was meant to be a fresh chapter after the tragic loss of his first wife, Mags. He eventually married Molly Martens, an American woman hired to help care for his young children. But nearly a decade later, Jason’s life would end violently inside their North Carolina home—sparking an international investigation and a courtroom battle that has left many questions unanswered. In this episode, we look deeper into the years leading up to Jason’s death through the eyes of his daughter Sarah, now an adult, and his sister Tracey Corbett Lynch, who has long fought for answers. Tracey remembers troubling signs during the couple’s wedding visit to America, including Molly’s alleged behavior and inconsistencies in her personal story. Meanwhile, Sarah later came forward with unsettling memories from childhood—claims that challenge the public image of a loving stepmother and raise questions about control and manipulation inside the home. From conflicting narratives to transatlantic legal twists, we break down the facts, examine the claims, and explore why many still feel justice remains out of reach for Jason Corbett and his children.

In this episode of Crime Salad, we’re diving into the heartbreaking story of Stephanie Marie Wasilishin—a devoted mother, talented pastry chef, and vibrant woman whose life was cut short on July 9, 1993. What happened that night in Sedona, Arizona has haunted her family for over three decades, especially her daughters, Nikki and Christina. Stephanie’s story began long before that tragic night. After the loss of her twin brother in infancy, her family relocated from Illinois to the Deep South, settling in Arizona. Years later, she would meet Russell Peterson, the man who would become her partner and the father of her youngest daughter. But when Stephanie was found dead in their home, and Russell was the only witness, the lines between accident, suicide, and murder became painfully blurred. Despite Stephanie’s death being ruled a homicide, no one has ever been charged—and the case remains one of the many unsolved mysteries we explore on this show. Through Nikki’s courageous efforts to seek justice and keep her mother’s story alive! If you’re drawn to true crime stories that mix deep emotion with disturbing questions, this one’s for you.

On May 8, 2025, a teenage girl arrived at a Wawa convenience store in Gloucester Township, New Jersey.  Her shaved head and scarred-up wrists clearly told a story that something was wrong. She wasn’t there to grab a snack or fill up a gas tank—her neighbor had driven her there to meet authorities. She was in desperation to escape a nightmare that, according to investigators, had lasted nearly seven long years. But in the moment she was hesitant to tell them everything.  Her story would later reveal years of abuse and imprisonment—suffering inflicted by the very people who were supposed to love and protect her. Somehow, it all went unnoticed, hidden behind closed doors with no contact with the outside world. What makes this case even more disturbing is how it exposes the glaring gaps in how we monitor the safety and well-being of homeschooled children in America. Listener discretion is strongly advised.

Born on September 7, 2019, Journey—referred to as J.G. in legal documents—had a heartbreaking start to life in Tulare County, California. It didn’t take long for Tulare County Child Welfare Services (CWS) to begin receiving multiple reports concerning Journey’s safety and well-being. In the year leading up to Journey’s birth, his father became consumed by conspiracy theories and developed a dangerous plan to raise an entirely plant-based baby. Journey’s parents took their beliefs to an extreme, feeding their newborn a diet of blended bananas, dates, and honey—ignoring his basic nutritional needs for breast milk or infant formula. Despite repeated calls from Journey’s grandmother to Child Protective Services (CPS), no effective action was taken until it was tragically too late. Miraculously, Journey survived the severe neglect and abuse, but he now faces lifelong challenges as a result of the trauma he endured.

A desperate 32-year-old man who risked everything to escape the nightmare he'd been trapped in for years.  His prison: a locked room inside a quiet house in Waterbury, Connecticut. Starved, abused, and neglected, he weighed just 68 pounds—less than the average 10-year-old. With no way out and no hope left, he made a final, desperate choice: he set his room on fire. Using only a lighter, hand sanitizer, and paper, he sparked the blaze that could either end his life—or save it.  It triggered a race against time as firefighters rushed to a home no one suspected was hiding a horror story. Kimberly Sullivan, his stepmother, is now charged with imprisoning him for over two decades—but she denies everything. Her attorneys claim there’s no real evidence tying her to the abuse.  This man lost decades of his life—hidden from the world, voiceless. But now, his story is being told. If you're worried a child may be experiencing abuse, help is available.

It’s been nearly fifteen years since Tanya Zuvers last saw her three sons—Andrew, Alexander, and Tanner Skelton. But instead of a long-awaited reunion, she’s now standing in a Lenawee County probate courtroom in Michigan, alongside her attorney, making a request that no parent should ever have to make: Tanya has come before the court to petition for her children, who would now be adults, to be declared legally unalived. After years of searching, hoping, and fearing—it’s an acknowledgment of the unthinkable. A declaration that her children, who vanished under the care of their father in 2010, are never coming home. This is the story of the Skelton brothers—a story of loss, unanswered questions, and a fight for justice.  Thanks to the sponsor of this week's show: BetterHelp Visit betterhelp.com/crimesalad to get 10% off your first month.

On January 3rd, 1971, sixteen-year-old Angela Brandt was curled up in front of her family’s new color TV, getting settled back into their home located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, after having spent two weeks vacationing in Florida.  That evening, Angela and her family were watching the TV show, The FBI. "Unknown Victim," Season 6, Episode 16, just aired. An episode where kidnappers abduct a young woman, mistakenly believing she is the daughter of a millionaire. In reality, she is the daughter of a middle-class couple who was driving a car that belonged to the intended victim. While engrossed in the show, Angela had no idea that, all too soon, she was about to live through a horrific ordeal—one that she had only ever heard about. After the show, Angela went up to her room to read. Her mother, who was pregnant, Isla Brandt, ran a bath and started reading Time magazine. While her father, Herbert Brandt, was shaving. The night seemed like any other as the family went about their typical, nightly routines.  That is until the quiet stillness of the casual night was shattered in an instant—when gunshots echoed through the house.  Upgrade your selling experience today at Shopify.com/crimesalad and take your business to the next level!

In February 2020, Sarah Boone made a chilling 911 call claiming to have found her boyfriend, Jorge Torres Jr., lifeless inside a suitcase after an innocent game of hide-and-seek turned deadly. According to Sarah, she had fallen asleep, leaving Jorge trapped and unable to escape—a horrific accident, or so she insisted. But Sarah’s demeanor during the call was erratic, her words detached and cold. The pieces didn’t quite fit. Then, a damning video surfaced: Jorge, locked inside the suitcase, desperately gasping, “I can’t breathe,” and pleading for his life while Sarah mocked him. That video turned the case upside down, transforming a supposed accident into something far more sinister. Sarah Boone was arrested and charged with second-degree murder, her chilling actions leading to a trial that left everyone questioning the dark side of human relationships.

Mark Twitchell was a film enthusiast with big ambitions, but those ambitions took a dark and disturbing turn. Beneath his passion for movies was something much more sinister, and it didn’t take long for those dark desires to surface. Wearing a hockey mask and armed with duct tape, a fake gun, and a taser baton, Mark set a trap in a garage he had rented to film a movie, prepared to look like a crime scene, complete with plastic sheeting, but it was actually a kill room.

At 6:43 a.m. on Tuesday, May 5, 2009, Detective Justin Barlow’s phone rang. On the other end was his neighbor, Christopher Coleman sounding anxious.

As Halloween approaches and the leaves change, it's the perfect time to explore one of the most controversial and notorious haunted attractions: McKamey Manor. Known as the most extreme haunted house experience, McKamey Manor has been pushing the boundaries of fear since 2001.

It's DVAM (Domestic Abuse Awareness Month) this October, so we have a throwback for you this week. In March of 2020, Gretchen Anthony began sending texts to family and friends telling them she had tested positive for Covid-19. There was still so much unknown about the virus as the entire world began shutting down. Her family became highly concerned when they couldn’t get her on the phone.

The conclusion to the Cleveland Strangler. Anthony Sowell is a serial killer who was active in the Cleveland, Ohio area between 2007 and 2009. Sowell was arrested in 2009 after the police discovered the remains of eleven women in and around his house on Imperial Avenue in Cleveland. The victims of Sowell's crimes were predominantly African-American women who were vulnerable and had struggled with addiction and poverty. Sowell targeted these women, many of who were sex workers, and lured them to his home under false pretenses before assaulting, raping, and strangling them. He then buried their bodies in and around his property, where they remained hidden for months and years. Sowell's crimes were significant due to their gruesome nature, the high number of victims, and the fact that they took place over an extended period of time without being detected by law enforcement. The case drew widespread attention from the media and the public, highlighting the issues of poverty, addiction, and violence against vulnerable women. Support us! Want ad free listening?

Join us on the next episode of Crime Salad where we explore a case of life imitating art. Romance Writer Nancy Brophy wrote an essay on how to get away with murdering your husband. By all accounts, she was happily married to chef Daniel Brophy at the time. But then Dan who worked as a Chef at the Oregon Culinary Institute as an instructor was found murdered by one of his students. Later surveillance cameras would show Nancy's van circling the crime scene while she told police she was still in bed. After being arrested she conveniently couldn't remember what happened during the hour she drove around the murder scene. She chalked up her inconsistencies to shock. However, at the time of her Trial, she testified that she was sure she couldn't have murdered her husband based on the feelings in her heart. Support us! Want ad free listening?

Join us on the next episode of Crime Salad where we examine the murder of 6 innocent members of the Stay family and the attempted murder of 15 year old Cassidy Stay at the hands of a depraved family member. Cassidy's ex-uncle Ronald Lee Haskell was out for vengeance when his ex-wife laughed at him and high fived her sister Katie Stay on the day she was finally granted her divorce.  Katie Stay also helped her sister, Melanie Haskell escape Utah and her abusive ex to be closer to her family in Spring, Texas. Before Haskell carried out his evil revenge plot against the Stay family, he had a run in with his own family. In a shocking turn of events, the victims of that attack used Haskell's previous attacks to bolster his defense strategy. They believed his attack on his own family days earlier would help prove his claims of innocence by reason of insanity or mental defect. Despite these efforts to avoid responsibility, a Texas Jury passed down the ultimate judgment on Ronald Haskell where he now sits on Texas Death row. Support us! Want ad free listening?

In July of 2004, he and his newly pregnant wife were set to move within days to North Carolina when Lori went missing and Mark's bed of lies was finally exposed. Support us! Want ad free listening?

Join us this week on Crime Salad where we discuss the senseless murder of Amber Guichelaar at the hands of her husband, a supposed Godly Man she had prayed for since childhood. On the outside everyone thought they were a happy couple, but in reality Richard was controlling and abusive. Amber began contemplating leaving Richard while hiding the truth of the abuse she endured from friends and family. But she couldn't hide it from herself and began documenting her secret hell in the pages of a secret diary. In one entry she asked the prophetic questions, "Am I safe sleeping next to him?" That answer turned out to be a resounding NO. Support us! Want ad free listening? Patreon - https://patreon.com/crimesaladpodcast Follow us!

Join us on the next episode of Crime Salad where we examine the complicated marriage and attempted murder of Alisa Mathewson. In March of 2017, Trevor Summers and his wife Alissa were going through an acrimonious divorce. For 16 years Alisa was lied to, controlled and manipulated by her husband. He even controlled her Facebook friends and forbade her to speak with any men.  In October of 2016 she had had enough and made the difficult decision to leave her marriage. Six months later she was moved out and waiting to finalize her divorce proceeding. She had also begun dating again. That would turn out to be a grave decision.  As Alisa embarked on a new life, Trevor manipulated his children into giving him access to his wife's new home under the guise of "fixing their family". When in reality he was planning a murder-suicide. His control didn't end at his arrest...it extended all the way through his trial where he insisted on cross-examining Alisa. He attempted to control Alisa and the narrative on their marriage one last time. Support us! Want ad free listening?

For 13 years she was lost until investigators looked back through their original list of suspects and finally brought her remains home to her family. This case highlights the failures in our broken criminal justice system. If Brittanee's murderer served his entire sentence for previously committed heinous crime, he never would have crossed paths with Brittanee Drexel on April 25th, 2009. Support us!

The conclusion to The Phone Call. In this episode police are no closer to finding Heather than they were the day she vanished. To complicate matters, the police were having to contend with interference by the Elvis family and well meaning members of the public. In this episode both the Elvis Family and the Moorer family have taken to social media accusing the other of harassment. Local law enforcement tried some tactics to force cooperation in the case which led to 4 trials, with one ending in a mistrial. Will Heather Elvis ever find justice? As we approach another seemingly never ending anniversary of her disappearance, Heather's whereabouts still remain unknown. Support us! Want ad free listening?

The conclusion to the Slayer. In 2006, Michelle Young was a 29 year old beloved wife and mother with an adorable toddler and another baby soon on the way. To all who knew Michelle and Jason Young, they appeared to be the ideal couple living in a picturesque community in Raleigh, North Carolina. All of that came to a sudden end In the early morning hours of November 3rd, 2006 when an intruder brutally strangled Michelle and bludgeoned her to death. Her grieving husband was out of town when her broken body was found the next day by her sister, Meredith Fischer. While calling 911, Meredith was startled to discover her 2 year old niece, hiding under the covers next to her mother's dead body. Leaving behind a tiny trail of toddler sized bloody footprints that told their own story. Could Michelle's husband be responsible for this horrific crime?

In March of 2020, Gretchen Anthony began sending texts to family and friends telling them she had tested positive for Covid-19. There was still so much unknown about the virus as the entire world began shutting down. Her family became highly concerned when they couldn't get her on the phone. Many of the texts from Gretchen were filled with poor spelling and grammar. Then she stopped sharing her phone location with her 12 year old daughter. The last text anyone received from Gretchen said she was being transferred to a CDC covid site and would be placed on a ventilator, unable to communicate. After a wellcheck at her home by law enforcement, it became clear that someone was using Covid as an alibi to cover up a horrific crime.

Letters written in blood were found underneath the jeep next to Christine's dead body, but the killer is believed to have mopped most of it up, making it indecipherable and the killer unidentifiable.
