    Update on the Dermond Murder This new update popped up a few days ago, and I wanted to share it. A few years ago, I did a write-up on this case. That was on my previous, less-user friendly web platform that I no longer use. I still have the article on my computer, but like…

    Greenwich, Connecticut is frequently associated with both  affluence and, in the true crime community, with the 1975 murder of Martha Moxley. 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…

    Brianne Wolgram

    Suzanne Lyall

    When I first started get serious about researching this case, I honestly did not think it was going to be that deep of a dive. I thought I would lay out the basic facts, discuss a few, broad theories, and that would be the end of it. After all, could I really add much to…

    Jaliek Rainwalker

    I had never heard of the case of the missing twelve year old, Jaliek Rainwalker, until the ever-excellent Trace Evidence podcast covered it a while back.
