- The Murder of Shauna Howe
In late October 1992, the small town of Oil City, PA, was shattered when 11-year-old Shauna Howe vanished while walking home from a youth Halloween event. What followed was a community-wide nightmare: the discovery of her body beneath a bridge, a decade of cold leads, and an entire town too terrified to let their children trick-or-treat. It would take nearly 13 years and a massive DNA breakthrough to reveal the multi-person conspiracy behind her brutal murder. This week, we examine the tragic murder of Shauna Howe and the relentless investigation that finally brought her killers to justice.

On a quiet night in October 2012, a 911 dispatcher in Parker County, Texas, received a call that would chill them to the bone.

This week we piece together the timeline of Katelin’s final known hours, the conflicting stories of the last person to see her alive, and the devastating secrets that finally broke the case wide open.

In the early morning hours of April 6, 1986, nine-year-old Anthonette Cayedito vanished from her home in Gallup, New Mexico. Affectionately known as “Squirrel,” Anthonette was a deeply devoted fourth-grader who helped take care of her younger sisters. What started as a frantic morning search quickly evolved into one of America’s most baffling and heartbreaking missing child cases. In this episode, we break down the perplexing timeline of her disappearance, a terrifying 1987 phone call from a frantic girl claiming to be Anthonette, and the chilling “Help Me” napkin note left behind at a Nevada diner years later.

An experienced hunter walks into his own woods and completely vanishes. In late 2013, Eric Grady Smith was a well-respected coal mine supervisor and a dedicated family man living in Cedar Bluff, Virginia. Battling minor flu-like symptoms, he left his cell phone behind for what was meant to be a short trek to his deer stand. Despite massive search operations, not a single piece of clothing, footprint, or his .50 caliber rifle has ever been recovered. Did Eric suffer an unforeseen medical emergency in the dense terrain, or did he stumble into a far more dangerous situation? We dive into the unsettling mystery of a wilderness disappearance where the wilderness itself yielded zero clues.

What really happened to Jean Spanger? In October 1949, the young Hollywood starlet went missing after walking out of her apartment for a supposed night shoot.

We bread down the timeline, the suspect list, and the lingering theories - including a possible tie to the infamous Black Dahlia investigation.

One family, two unfathomable tragedies. In 1999, 15-year-old Michael Palmer vanished into the early morning hours while biking home from a party in Wasilla, Alaska. Eleven years later, history would repeat itself in the worst way possible way when his 30-year-old brother, Chucky, disappeared while snowmobiling in the Talkeetna Mountains. Both brothers were riding at the back of their groups. Both left their vehicles behind. Neither has ever been found. We unpack the eerie parallels of the cases, the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness, and a family left living the same nightmare twice.

Why did they head into the wilderness, and what drove them to abandon their car? We break down the timeline of America's most baffling missing persons case.
