  The Chief's Wife: Murder in Gig Harbor 15.09.2026 11min

  The Chief's Wife: Murder in Gig HarborIn April 2003, Tacoma Police Chief David Brame shot his estranged wife, Crystal Judson Brame, in a shopping center parking lot in Gig Harbor, Washington, while their 2 young children waited nearby. The homicide set off a state and federal investigation into how a man who failed his very first psychological evaluation ended up running the entire Tacoma Police Department.Crystal was a tiny Tacoma girl who danced ballet and wanted to be a lawyer, and she married into a family where carrying a badge was practically hereditary. What went on inside their gray-shingled house on Eagle Creek Lane involved a stopwatch, an odometer, a bathroom scale, and a 5 dollar hanging plant, and by the end, the neighbor who used to gossip about their Christmas lights was watching the street for the chief of police. This is the story of the people who were warned about David Brame, starting the year he applied for the job.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

A mother who buried one daughter and rebuilt an entire life around the other. A stepfather who still mouths I love you to the girl who shot him. A straight-A kid with a 30 on her ACT at 13 and burner phones hidden in her bedroom, and one week of medication changes her defense team built an entire insanity case around.

  The Last Call: Inside the Killing of Jordan Wheeler 08.09.2026 14min

  The Last Call: Inside the Killing of Jordan WheelerIn Clinton Township, Michigan, 33-year-old Jordan Wheeler was killed on October 19, 2023, inside her own home, and the criminal investigation that followed led to a 2025 conviction for her estranged husband, Steven Wheeler, on charges of first-degree premeditated murder. The trial built its case on 911 audio, forensic evidence, and testimony from the couple's young son, turning what started as a routine domestic call into one of Michigan's most talked about homicide convictions.Jordan did everything you're told to do when a marriage turns dangerous. She left. She filed for divorce. She started over with her sister. Then a scared phone call from her own son pulled her back through that front door one more time, and what happened next got caught on a 911 line that never got the chance to hang up. This is the story of a mother's last decision, a 9-year-old boy who had to describe it on a witness stand, and a piece of gun law that came just months too late.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  A Marriage of Secrets: The Susan Cox Powell Case 03.09.2026 13min

  A Marriage of Secrets: The Susan Cox Powell CaseSusan Cox Powell disappeared from her West Valley City, Utah home on December 6, 2009, launching a homicide investigation that centered on her husband, Josh Powell, before he killed himself and their two young sons in a 2012 murder-suicide. Despite a decade of searches, forensic evidence, and a $98.5 million negligence verdict against the state of Washington, Susan's body has never been found.A husband tells police he took his toddlers camping at midnight, in a blizzard, on a work night, and came home to find his wife gone. That's the story Josh Powell gave investigators, and it barely survives contact with the evidence. Behind it sits a father-in-law running an obsessive surveillance operation out of his own house, a marriage built on quiet financial control, a will Susan wrote a year before she vanished warning that her death might not look like an accident, and 807 unexplained miles on a rental car. This is the story of what investigators found, what they missed, and the stretch of Idaho highway that's never been searched.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  Divorce Papers on an Empty Bed: The Dan Markel Case 01.09.2026 12min

  Divorce Papers on an Empty Bed: The Dan Markel CaseDan Markel, a 41-year-old Florida State University law professor, was shot twice in the head in the garage of his Tallahassee home on July 18, 2014, in a murder-for-hire plot built by his former in-laws. The FBI and Tallahassee police investigation that followed used wiretaps, SunPass toll records, and a cooperating hitman to win five convictions, including first-degree murder verdicts against former brother-in-law Charlie Adelson and family matriarch Donna Adelson.This one begins with a mop, a stepladder, and a hyperactive kid in Montreal who grew up to teach punishment theory to law students, and it ends with a 76-year-old grandmother serving life in a Florida prison. In between there's a divorce, a 50-50 custody schedule, a $1 million offer, a rented silver Prius trailing a man around town for two days, and a family so rattled by one undercover FBI agent that they started calling a murder "TV" on their own phone lines. Twelve years of trials, appeals, and one Florida law now named after the victim. Here's how a fight over 500 miles became a contract killing.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  Gerald and Charlene: The Sex Slave Murders 27.08.2026 13min

  Gerald and Charlene: The Sex Slave MurdersBetween 1978 and 1980, Gerald and Charlene Gallego abducted and murdered at least 10 victims across California, Nevada, and Oregon, including Sacramento teenagers Rhonda Scheffler and Kippi Vaught, in a homicide investigation detectives came to call the Sex Slave Murders. The FBI arrested the couple in November 1980, and what followed was a controversial plea bargain, a conviction built on a co-defendant's testimony, and 2 death sentences that people still argue about today.A friendly young woman walks up to 2 girls at a Sacramento shopping plaza and offers to get them high. She is 21 years old and she looks like somebody's babysitter. That is the entire mechanism, and it worked for more than 2 years across 3 states while investigators were still working with phone books and blood typing. This one is about the people. A boy who inherited something from a father he never laid eyes on, and a girl who had every advantage and set it on fire. It ends with an ordinary young man in a parking lot doing the one thing that stopped it.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  Au Pair Affair Murders: The Brendan Banfield Double Murder 25.08.2026 12min

  Au Pair Affair Murders: The Brendan Banfield Double MurderOn February 24, 2023, pediatric ICU nurse Christine Banfield, 37, and a stranger named Joseph Ryan, 39, were killed inside a home in Herndon, Fairfax County, Virginia, in a double homicide staged to look like a home invasion. The investigation eventually turned on Christine's husband, former IRS criminal investigator Brendan Banfield, and the family's 22-year-old Brazilian au pair, whose cooperating testimony and forensic evidence of a staged crime scene produced two aggravated murder convictions and a life sentence.Christine spent her early career as a sexual assault nurse examiner, sitting with strangers on the worst nights of their lives, and she died inside a story her own husband wrote to make her look like the author of it. This one has a fake profile on a fetish website, a young woman from São Paulo who came over to watch a toddler, a detective who got moved out of his unit right after his findings pointed the wrong direction, and a federal investigator who was certain he understood how these cases get solved.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  Dead Weight: The Windi Thomas and Keeno Butler Case 18.08.2026 11min

  Dead Weight: The Windi Thomas and Keeno Butler CaseOn March 18, 2018, 44-year-old Keeno Butler was killed inside his Erie, Pennsylvania apartment in a domestic violence homicide that ended with his girlfriend, 44-year-old Windi C. Thomas, pleading guilty to third-degree murder. Detectives, the Erie County Coroner, and forensic evidence documented more than 90 traumatic injuries on the victim's body, and the case closed with a plea deal and an 18-to-36-year sentence.The whole world turned this into a headline about body weight and forgot the rest. Keeno was a grandfather at 44 who loved music and dancing and working, and who was, by his sister's account, an occasional pest she would give anything to have back. His family got a vigil, a plea deal, and a mother who kept calling his name into an empty house. Buried in the file is a coincidence so small and so Erie that it ties this apartment on East Avenue to the most notorious crime in the city's history, 15 years earlier. The prosecutor stood in front of reporters and asked them to stop reducing it to one detail. Nobody listened.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  Three Words Carved in a Tree: The Kelly Cochran Case 13.08.2026 13min

  Three Words Carved in a Tree: The Kelly Cochran CaseKelly and Jason grew up next door to each other, married young, and made a promise on their wedding night that most people would have laughed off by breakfast. Twelve years later, in a corner of Michigan where the nearest anything is 45 minutes away, that promise turned into a plan. This one has a woman at the center who never once stopped talking, and almost never told the same story twice. There is a tree in an Indiana park with 3 words carved into it, and those 3 words are the reason anyone knows what happened to Chris Regan at all.In October 2014, 53-year-old Air Force veteran Christopher Regan disappeared from Iron River, Michigan, and the homicide investigation led detectives straight to his coworker and lover, Kelly Cochran, and her husband Jason. With no body, degraded forensic evidence, and a police chief running a department of 4 officers, the cold case sat for 18 months until an FBI tip, an autopsy in Indiana, and one detective's very unusual tactic broke it open into a first-degree murder conviction and a life sentence without parole.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  A 13-Year-Old Killer: The Murder of Derrick Robie 10.08.2026 12min

  A 13-Year-Old Killer: The Murder of Derrick RobieOn August 2, 1993, 4-year-old Derrick Robie was lured into a wooded area one block from his home in Savona, New York, and murdered. The suspect was 13-year-old Eric Smith, a neighbor, and the homicide investigation that followed made Smith the youngest defendant ever tried as an adult for murder in New York State, leading to a second-degree murder conviction, a sentence of 9 years to life, and 11 parole board hearings across 27 years.Savona had fewer than 1,000 people in it, and Derrick knew most of them by name. He sat on a corner greeting neighbors and the town called him the unofficial mayor. When he disappeared on a walk he had made a hundred times with his mother, everyone assumed an outsider had come through. The truth was already inside the village, riding a bike, and it had been leaving warning signs for 4 years that nobody knew how to read. This is a story about two boys, one town, and a question a family friend could not stop thinking about.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  A Videotape and a First Grade Mind: The Shelton Holloway Story 06.08.2026 12min

  A Videotape and a First Grade Mind: The Shelton Holloway StoryIn April of 1987, 17 year old Patricia Ann Hannah disappeared after a school dance in York, Alabama, and two weeks later her body was found behind an Alabama Power office. A fellow Sumter County High School student named Shelton Jerome Holloway, a special education student with a documented intellectual disability, was arrested and eventually convicted based largely on a videotaped confession. The legal question at the center of the case wasn't whether he said the words on that tape. It was whether a young man functioning at a first grade level could actually understand what he was giving up when he waived his rights. This one pulls you into a small Alabama town, a missing girl, and a confession that split experts, courts, and advocates for decades. The crime and the trial end up asking two completely different questions, and neither one has an easy answer.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

The investigation that followed became Delaware's first murder conviction ever secured without a body, a weapon, or a confirmed cause of death.This one starts at a dinner table in Philadelphia and ends with a fisherman patching bullet holes in a cooler he had no idea he'd fished off the Jersey coast. In between, there's a diary that changes tone completely over 2 years, a mistress who bought the murder weapon, a brother with a fishing boat, and a courtroom collapse that undid one of Delaware's most connected men in real time. This is a story about charm, control, and what happens when someone spends their whole life assuming they'll never get caught.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  Bobby Joe Long: The Serial Killer a 17-Year-Old Girl Took DownBobby Joe Long murdered at least 10 women across Tampa, Florida between March and November 1984, evading investigators until a 17-year-old survivor's memory cracked the case wide open. The homicide investigation, later corroborated by FBI forensic evidence and Long's own confession, led to his conviction and a 1988 death sentence.A body that survived collision after collision since childhood. A marriage that fell apart after a motorcycle wreck seemed to rewire something in him completely. And then, in the middle of a killing spree that had five agencies scrambling, a Krispy Kreme employee riding home on her bike got pulled off it by a man with a gun to her head. What she did over the next 26 hours, while blindfolded and terrified, is the reason this case ever got solved at all. This is the story of Bobby Joe Long, the women he killed, and the teenager who out-thought him and spent the rest of her life making sure he never touched anyone else.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  50 Dollars and a New Name: The Jeremy Bryan Jones StoryIn September 2004, 43-year-old Lisa Nichols was raped and murdered inside her Turnerville, Alabama home just days after Hurricane Ivan tore through the region, and the man responsible had been living under a stolen identity for four years thanks to a fingerprint system that failed him. Jeremy Bryan Jones walked free through three separate arrests before investigators connected him to the crime, and once he was caught, he didn't stop talking. He confessed to killing over 20 people across five states. Some of it was true. A lot of it wasn't. This is the story of a man who learned early that charm gets you further than violence, and what happens when an entire justice system can't tell his lies from his truth.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  The Grandparents Who Killed for Cattle Money 21.07.2026 11min

  The Grandparents Who Killed for Cattle MoneyPicture the most harmless looking couple you can imagine. Now picture that couple with a farm, a livestock scam, and a body count. Ray and Faye Copeland spent fifty years married before they became, at 66 and 69, the oldest couple ever sentenced to death row in American history. This one has a quilt in it. It has a list. It has a man who talked his way out of a barn and lived to make the call that ended it all. It's one of the strangest true crime cases you'll hear this year, and it's all true.Ray and Faye Copeland murdered at least five homeless drifters on their Missouri farm between 1986 and 1989, luring each man with promises of work before Ray executed them with a .22 rifle. Investigators eventually recovered a handwritten list of twelve names in Faye's own hand, only five of which were ever matched to a body.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  The Fixer, the Photos, and the Death of Tom 16.07.2026 11min

  The Fixer, the Photos, and the Death of Tom MerrimanIn December 2020, a Solana Beach, California woman named Jade Janks drugged and killed the man she'd called her father for over two decades, then spent New Year's Day disguising his body as a pile of trash in their shared driveway. Thomas Merriman was a beloved butterfly conservationist. Jade Janks was the stepdaughter who'd cooked him dinner every night of the pandemic. Somewhere between those two facts sits a discovery on his computer that she said broke something in her permanently, and a string of increasingly desperate text messages to a man she called "the fixer" that ended up telling prosecutors almost the entire story. This is a case where the victim's public image and the killer's private allegations never got to sit in the same room together, because the woman who could have proven her own motive burned the evidence herself, on purpose, the same night he died.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  The Serial Killer Shrine: The Shaye Groves and Frankie Fitzgerald CaseHer bedroom walls were covered in framed photos of serial killers. Her bookshelf was stacked with true crime and gangster biographies. And when the moment came, prosecutors say she used everything she'd absorbed from years of true crime obsession to try to talk her way out of what she'd done. This is the story of a relationship that turned lethal, a woman who thought she'd studied the perfect getaway, and the digital trail that proved otherwise.Frankie Fitzgerald, 25, was found dead from a fatal knife wound to the throat in a Havant, Hampshire home on July 17, 2022. His girlfriend, Shaye Groves, was convicted of his murder after a five-week trial at Winchester Crown Court, where forensic evidence, mobile phone data, and body camera footage dismantled her claim of self-defense.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  The Captain Who Hired a Hitman The Harding Story 07.07.2026 11min

  The Captain Who Hired a Hitman: The Harding StoryOn September 26, 2022, the body of 53-year-old Sacramento HVAC contractor Michael Harding was discovered inside a vacant home for sale on Glasgow Road in Burkesville, Kentucky, shot four times. The investigation that followed led Kentucky State Police, FBI agents, and detectives across three states to California Highway Patrol Captain Julie Harding and her secret partner Thomas O'Donnell, a 60-year-old amateur hitman from Napa Valley, in one of the most disturbing murder-for-hire cases of the decade.This is a story about a 22-year law enforcement career that ended in a conspiracy, a $220,000 cash withdrawal nobody could trace, and 194 phone calls between two people who thought they had everything figured out. We follow Michael Harding from a quiet Sacramento neighborhood to an empty room in rural Kentucky where someone he had never met was waiting for him. We look at how a wiped phone, a Ring camera, a Netflix login, and one rambling call to a brand-new supervisor told investigators everything they needed to know. There is a verdict in this case. There is also a question no verdict could ever answer.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  The House of Horrors: Billy Mansfield's Family of Predators 02.07.2026 13min

  The House of Horrors: Billy Mansfield's Family of PredatorsIn 1980, along the Florida coast from Spring Hill to Daytona Beach, a chilling pattern emerged that Detroit investigators would later connect to serial killer Billy Mansfield Jr. Six women and teenage girls vanished or were found buried beneath a mobile home in Weeki Wachee Acres, with DNA technology in 2022 finally identifying one victim as 16-year-old Theresa Fillingim after 42 years. The FBI continues searching for additional bodies as recently as June 2026.But this story doesn't start with bodies in the ground. It starts with a father who couldn't stop touching children, a son who learned violence was normal, and a rural Florida community in the 1970s where nobody asked questions and everybody stayed quiet. You're going to meet women who went out for a drink and never came home, a teenage girl at a campground shower who became a Jane Doe for decades, and a family compound so messed up that neighbors just drove past it faster. This is about what happens when institutions fail at every level, when a kid grows up watching his dad evade prison for rape and learns that's just how the world works. We're going through the psychology, the family dynamics, the cultural moment that let predators like Mansfield operate across state lines with no database to connect the dots. You'll hear about the prison escape, the bag brothers, the woman who got away, and the brother who's still living on that property forty years later.This case is still open.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.

  Blood in the Rocket City: The 1998 Franklin Family Massacre 30.06.2026 11min

  Blood in the Rocket City: The 1998 Franklin Family MassacreOn March 10, 1998, seventeen-year-old Jeffrey Brendan Franklin attacked his own family inside their home at 1305 Camelot Drive in Huntsville, Alabama, killing his parents Gerald and Cynthia Franklin and critically wounding three of his four younger siblings with a sledgehammer, hatchet, butcher knife, and a mechanic’s rat-tail file. The Huntsville Police investigation led by detective Mac McCutcheon, the journals and Satanic writings recovered from Jeffrey’s bedroom, the prescription psychiatric medications he had been taking, and Alabama’s pursuit of the juvenile death penalty turned one afternoon into one of the most studied family-violence cases of the late twentieth century.You always hear about cases like this happening in the bad part of town, and this one happened in the part of town where every dad worked for NASA. Camelot was a subdivision in the safest stretch of Rocket City, Alabama, and it sat at the center of the wildest convergence of late-nineties American chaos you can think of: pediatric Prozac, the Satanic Panic, a cop who was also a Baptist preacher, and a global human rights fight that helped reshape American law four years later. This is the story of an honors-track American family, the seventeen-year-old who came home from school first, and the quiet that settled over a brick house on Camelot Drive that nobody on the cul-de-sac has ever fully shaken.🔔 Subscribe for True Crime Cases multiple times a weekNever miss a story.
