The Keddie Cabin Murders: A Deep Dive
The events with which we will be concerned occurred in the early morning hours of April 12th or possibly the last hours of April 11ith in 1981. The location was Cabin 28 of the Keddie Campground in Keddie, California. Before I talk about the murders themselves I want to discuss the community in which they…

The Murder of Lila Leach
There’s really no skirting around the regrettable lack of information about this case. I won’t be able to explore it from as many angles as I have with some of the other cases I have covered, simply because there is very little background available to me. However, I think this is a story that needs…

The Murder of Ashley Ouellette and the Vanishing of Antonio Torres
There are two ways of looking at the case(s) I am here to discuss today. One is as a discussion of two mysteries, one an unsolved murder and the other a missing persons case. The other possibility is that this is actually one case that has claimed at least two victims. My purpose here is…

The Murder of Bill and Peggy Stephenson
This is yet another case that’s been on my back burner for several months. To say it’s an odd one would be a gross understatement on multiple levels. Not only did the victims, an elderly, churchgoing couple, seem to be unlikely targets for a double homicide, but the known details of that homicide make it…

Yet there is a working class enclave within the opulent community, and with it, there is a lesser known, unsolved murder. The Byram River is a shallow, narrow waterway at this point in its…

Rachel Anthony
Today I am going to talk about the abduction and murder of Rachel Anthony, a mother, grandmother and sister. On a bitterly cold night in February, 2001, Rachel was working the closing shift at a liquor store when she was abducted by one or more assailants, suffocated, and deposited in off of a rural road…

Jody LeCornu
This is one of those cases that has really stayed with me ever since I first heard of it. I’ll be neck deep in then other cases that I want to talk about–or thinking about something else altogether–and then, when I have a moment of quiet, I’ll find myself thinking of a snowy night in…

Robert Wone
Since I’m planning on incorporating my true crime obsession into my social media presence, I wanted to start out with one of my favorite (in the most tasteful possible sense of the word) cases: the 2006 murder of Robert Wone. Technically, it should be “the unexplained death of Robert Wone” but most of my sources…
