Kianna Galvin Jul 20, 2025

Show notes

Seventeen-year-old Kianna Galvin had just celebrated earning her GED and had plans to attend art school in Atlanta. But on May 6, 2016, she left her family’s home in South Elgin, Illinois, to visit someone in her neighborhood—and vanished without a trace. As hours turned into days, critical evidence began pointing investigators toward a dark possibility: that something terrible happened just blocks from her home.

Though police initially believed her to be a runaway, phone records and witness statements pointed to something far more sinister. But despite blood evidence, suspicious renovations, and conflicting statements from a person of interest, no arrests have been made in Kianna’s case, and nine years after her disappearance, there is still no trace of the bright, friendly teenager. Did someone she trusted betray her that spring afternoon? What really happened to Kianna Galvin?

If you have any information about what happened to Kianna Galvin, please reach out to the South Elgin Police Department at (847) 741-2151 or the Cook County Sheriff’s Special Victims Unit at 773-674-9490.

Re-Release: Logan Schiendelman Jul 13, 2025

Show notes

This episode originally aired on June 16, 2021

19-year-old Logan Schiendelman went for a drive early one morning. When he returned home, he told his grandmother, Ginnie, that he had an epiphany about his life. Logan had been floundering for the past year, so Ginnie hoped this meant that he was turning a corner. He had been struggling with his mixed-race identity, and his freshman year at Washington State University had not gone as planned.

Now, he was back in his hometown of Tumwater, Washington, working odd jobs and trying to figure out what his next move was going to be. Ginnie told Logan that they’d discuss his epiphany when she got home from work that evening. But when she returned home, Logan wasn’t there. Over the next few days, a bizarre mystery unfolded, with an abandoned car, possible sightings, and unidentified men. Logan’s case has baffled the community, but there’s one thing his family is certain of: someone out there has answers.
