  • A Strangely Murderous Grudge - Fayette, Maine
    May 1 2026

    This week, in Fayette, Maine, a man comes home from a double shift, to find his wfe, brutally murdered, and his baby, crawling around in pools of blood. The problem is, they have no enemies, and robbery doesn't appear to be the motive. The husband is cleared as a suspect, leading to a long investigation, focused on the wrong man, even though the real killer was a suspect, from the start. But due to mistakes, he was allowed to terrorize even more innocent people!!

    Along the way, we find out that "deer watching" is an actual festival activity in Maine, that even if you have no enemies, you still may never be safe, and that when you let a killer go free, for over a decade, they have a chance to ruin even more lives!!

  • Slaughter Spree - Axtell, Texas
    Apr 30 2026

    This week, in Axtell, Texas, a horrifying scene emerges as a cold, but crazed man goes on a murder spree, involving his soon to be ex wife's family, leaving multiple people dead, and others handcuffed to beds. This results in a race against time to find him, and his now kidnapped wife, before it's too late. The killer's awful criminal past doesn't surprise anyone, considering this awful murder spree, but will it be enough to earn him the death penalty??

    Along the way, we find out how to get the "Extreme Dr Pepper Experience", that a person' past is a pretty decent way to predict their future, and if you kill a Texas police officer, in his own home, Texas is going to try to kill you!!

  • Of Mice & Men & Murder - Sidney, Montana
    Apr 24 2026

    This week, in Sidney, Montana, when a beloved local teacher disappears, after going for a morning run, all that's left behind is a running shoe, in a ditch. Luckily, a tip comes in that is very specific to one of the culprits. This tip leads to an unlikely pair, consisting of a large, dumb young man, and his smaller, craftier older friend. It seems that when the older man smokes a lot of crack he says "the devil gets in him", and this causes him to brutally murder a teacher, and also commit one of the dumbest acts that a murderer could ever think of!!

    Along the way, we find out that way too many towns are named after small children, that 3 day crack benders rarely result in anything productive, and that you should never return a murder tool to the store, so you can get a refund!!
