Head Games Aug 17, 2025

Show notes

Extreme acts of violence rarely happen without warning. There’s often a long, troubling pattern leading up to them. When intervention fails, the consequences can be devastating. Such was the case for 25-year-old Joel Arciniega-Saenz, whose story leaves us asking what might have happened if someone had only acted sooner…

Castaway Jul 06, 2025

Show notes

Late in the evening on September 3rd, 2022, 41-year-old Mark Bent was sitting in his truck, drinking a homemade concoction of hard liquor and an energy drink, contemplating a big decision. Over the last year, Mark had found himself as the center of some drama in his new home state of Idaho. What started as a rumor escalated into harassment, which in turn made Mark’s life a living hell. It was only after Mark conveniently found himself outside the home of 23-year-old Nikolas Bird, the very man he held responsible for starting the rumors, that he decided to take matters into his own hands…

Chief Executive May 25, 2025

Show notes

When Payment Solutions CEO Geoffrey Biddle was found murdered in his own home, those who knew him were shocked. He had meaningful relationships with his friends, family, and employees, with no known enemies. He was the kind of man who was happy to lend a hand to a neighbor in need. But as investigators dug deeper, they uncovered a trail of fraud, deception, and premeditation leading them straight to jaded ex-employee, Billy Phillips. Stolen checks, suspicious internet searches and a mountain of evidence painted a dark picture of a murderous crime driven by pure greed.

Bobby from Boston May 11, 2025

Show notes

While hunting wild turkey in a remote National Forest in Virginia, a man stumbled upon a human corpse. The victim was 52-year-old Michael Kent Jamerson—but the true terror began only after his killer and supposed friend, Robert Gleason, was caught. Because for the state of Virginia, this murder was just the beginning of a far more disturbing plot…

American Scheme Apr 27, 2025

Show notes

On February 6th, 2019, Michael Cochran was found unresponsive on the kitchen floor of his West Virginia home. Rather than calling 911, his wife Natalie spent the day inviting friends and family over to assess his condition. Michael appeared to be sleeping—he was even snoring. But no matter how much they shook him and called out his name, he wouldn’t wake up…

Dammit Dave Apr 13, 2025

Show notes

Most of us trust that our legal system will deliver the right judgments and hold those who commit heinous crimes accountable. That trust extends to the support we expect to follow — the assumption that resources will be available after an unexpected tragedy. But the unfortunate truth is that not everyone is afforded these privileges, making the path to recovery and closure all the more complicated for survivors of violent crime who are left to pick up the pieces on their own. For the family of 70-year-old David Flaget, that journey was filled with obstacles. They were ultimately forced to take matters into their own hands in seeking justice after their beloved grandfather was murdered in a situation that was entirely preventable.

Special thanks to Brittney and Tamber for taking the time to talk with us and tell us about their Grandpa Dave.
