Chandra Levy: A Missing Intern, A Politician & A Secret Affair Pt. 1 Apr 14, 2026

Show notes

In May 2001, 24-year-old Chandra Levy vanished from Washington D.C. She was a government intern with a bright future, a prestigious job, and a secret she hadn't told anyone: she was having an affair with a sitting U.S. Congressman.

In the first of three episodes on the Chandra Levy case, Katie Ring traces her journey from a small California town to the halls of power in Washington D.C.: the ambition, the relationships, and the hidden life that would put everything she'd worked for at risk. It's the story of a young woman who had done everything right, and the secret that changed everything.

Idaho Murders: How DNA Linked Bryan Kohberger to the Crime Scene Pt. 3 Apr 09, 2026

Show notes

The break in the Idaho murders came down to something the killer left behind without knowing it: a knife sheath, and a single strand of DNA.
In the third and final episode on the Idaho student murders, Katie Ring follows the investigation to its conclusion: how cell phone data, genetic genealogy, and surveillance footage led detectives to Bryan Kohberger. After his arrest, the case moved toward trial, but in 2025, Kohberger accepted a plea deal and received multiple life sentences. But one question the evidence never fully answered still remains: what was the motive?

From the knife sheath left behind at the scene to a shoe print, surveillance footage from before the attack, and the painstaking work of processing a crime scene that would eventually point toward a suspect.

Gabby Petito: The Warning Signs Before Her Disappearance Pt. 1 Mar 31, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of America’s Most Infamous Crimes, Katie Ring explores the early warning signs in the Gabby Petito case and the relationship between Gabby and her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, before her disappearance. Their van life journey across the United States looked perfect on social media, but behind the scenes, troubling patterns of control, isolation, and emotional tension were beginning to emerge. Bodycam footage from a police stop in Moab, Utah captured a moment that would later become central to the investigation. At the time, it seemed like a minor incident. But in hindsight, it raised serious questions about what was really happening. Katie breaks down the timeline, the relationship dynamics, and the red flags that may have been overlooked before Gabby Petito went missing.

Welcome to America’s Most Infamous Crimes. Katie Ring takes you deep into cases that have left a lasting imprint on society, and still haunt us today.

Ted Bundy: The Truth About His Origin Story Pt. 1 Mar 24, 2026

Show notes

Welcome to America’s Most Infamous Crimes. Katie Ring takes you deep into cases that have left a lasting imprint on society, and still haunt us today. Ted Bundy didn’t fit the image of a killer. He was educated, ambitious, and outwardly composed, the kind of man people trusted without hesitation. In this first episode, Katie traces the early fractures that shaped him: family secrets, rejection, mounting resentment, and the double life he quietly began to build. While pursuing politics and studying law, Bundy nurtured violent fantasies he would later describe as a dark force inside him called “the entity”. When he chose to give in to it, no one could predict what was coming.
