Tracy Kroh Jul 08, 2024

Show notes

#236 - When Tracy Kroh left her Enterline Township, Pennsylvania home on Saturday, August 5, 1989, she didn’t expect to be gone long. She planned to drive to her sister’s home to return a barbeque grill she had borrowed and drop off some coupons she had clipped. But her sister wasn’t home when Tracy got there, so she left the items on her front porch and returned to her car. After that, Tracy was never seen again.

What happened to Tracy Kroh? And is there anything forensic science can do to help bring her family justice?

Roxanne Wood Jul 01, 2024

Show notes

#235 - Roxanne Wood was murdered inside her Berrien County home on February 19, 1987. Her throat had been cut. Her husband found her dead after the couple had driven separately to go bowling, and Roxanne returned home first.

The case went cold, and although Michigan State Police reopened it in 2001 and again in 2020, it remained unsolved. That is until students in Western Michigan University’s cold case program got involved.

Kurt Sova Jun 17, 2024

Show notes

#233 - In October 1981, three young boys in Newburgh Heights, Ohio, made a frightening discovery in a ravine: a dead body. Other than some scratches and bruises, the body showed no obvious sign of injury. One tennis shoe was found in a nearby pile of rocks. The other shoe was missing. It was the body of 12-year-old Kurt Sova.

An autopsy revealed that Kurt had died about a day before he was found, but his parents reported him missing five days before that. Where was Kurt during the five days he was missing? How did he die, and where was he killed?
