186. “The House on Old Orchard Avenue” - The Case of “TJ” and Jaynie Crosdale - Kansas City, Missouri Oct 24, 2024

Show notes

100,000 photographs, a survivor, and a monster hiding in plain sight.

In September of 2022 neighbors in the 300 block of Old Orchard Avenue in Excelsior Springs awoke to a nightmare.

A young woman was beating on their doors begging for help, telling neighbors that her friends didn’t make it and “he” was coming to kill her.

As law enforcement began their investigation, they were led to 301 Orchard Avenue, the home of 39-year-old Timothy Haslett Junior. And what they found behind the doors of that home led many to believe there was a serial killer on the loose in Kansas City.

Alison Parrott with A Million Other Choices Oct 17, 2024

Show notes

Hurricane Milton came and threw us all for a loop. Thankfully, Kim from A Million Other Choices podcast is here filling in with the case of Alison Parrott.

Eleven year old Alison Parrott left her upscale Rosedale home on July 25, 1986 to get her picture taken with her winning track and field team.

She never returned home and her body was found 2 days later in Kings Mill Park.

Ten years later the technology used to find the Scarborough Rapist - one Paul Bernardo - would also lead to Alison't killer and finally justice for her family.

4 of Hearts: Anthony Lamar Peterson, Florida Deck with Dealing Justice Oct 03, 2024

Show notes

Due to some unexpected circumstances, I was unable to get an episode out this week. However, our friends, Lori and Jen at Dealing Justice have just dropped a new season and they were gracious enough to share their first episode from Season 3 with us!

Fourteen-year-old Anthony Lamar Peterson went missing during the summer of 2005 while visiting family in Palatka, Florida.

Days later, his unrecognizable body was found floating in Deep Creek, just miles from where he was last seen.

In a bizarre twist, Anthony's remains would go unidentified for months, leaving his mother to search the small rural town in vain for her only son.

185. “Russian Entities” - The Case of Madalina Cojocari - Cornelius, North Carolina | [Part 3 - FINAL] Sep 26, 2024

Show notes

A missing wallet, secret recordings, and a trundle bed.

As the trial for Christopher Palmiter continued, he testified about the days leading up to 11-year-old Madalina Cojocari’s disappearance.

His explanations for why he failed to report his stepdaughter missing left more questions than answers.

And more alarm bells were raised when Diana Cojocari fled the United States.

Anyone with information on Madalina’s whereabouts is urged to call the Cornelius Police Department at 704-892-7773 or the FBI at 1-800-CALL FBI. Anyone who wishes to remain anonymous can call North Mecklenburg Crime Stoppers at 704-896-7867.

Show notes

Michael Jackson, Vladimir Putin, and a silver investment.

As the search for 11-year-old Madalina Cojocari continued, her mother, Diana Cojocari, and stepfather, Christopher Palmiter faced charges for failing to report the little girl missing.

At trial, Palmiter took the stand in his own defense.

And his testimony revealed that things behind the closed doors of 18413 Victoria Bay Drive were far from normal.

182. “A Blended Family” - The Case of Sara Dixon - Burlington, North Carolina Sep 05, 2024

Show notes

Vacuum marks, a brightly colored blanket, and Christmas tinsel.

In November of 2007, 68-year-old, Sara Dixon was found shot to death inside her home in Burlington, North Carolina.

From the moment investigators arrived at the home on McCray Road it appeared that the scene had been staged to look like a robbery gone wrong. While it appeared nothing of value had been taken, there were several clues left behind; Christmas tinsel stuck to the door, an empty picture hanger, and a footprint in the carpet.

A year after Sara’s murder a man walked into the police station and gave investigators a small piece of information that unraveled the entire case.
