The Bizarre Assassination Of An Outspoken Writer - March 1 2023 Mar 01, 2023

Show notes

March 1st: Georgi Markov Born (1929)
When someone speaks out against a dangerous group they put their life on the line. On March 1st 1929 a man who spoke freely about the Communist regime in Bulgaria was met with a mysterious end. And, though there is a good idea about who exactly wanted him dead, no one has been charged and his case remains a cold one.

The Clever Killer - February 26 2023 Feb 26, 2023

Show notes

February 26th: George Joseph Cvek Executed (1942)
Cleverness can get someone incredibly far in life. It can also be used for evil. On February 26th 1942 a very clever young man was executed for murdering a newlywed. And, though she was the only one of his victims to lose her life, at least as far as the investigation tells, she was far from his only victim.

February 25th: Imette St. Guillen Killed (2006)
When going out at night, many people take the necessary precautions to make sure they can be as safe as possible. This, however, doesn’t always assure your safety. On February 25th 2006 a young woman lost her life at the hands of a man who, most would assume, was there to make sure she was safe.

The Killer Son of Jones Town - February 24 2023 Feb 24, 2023

Show notes

February 24th: Tyrone Mitchell Dies (1984)
Grieving can come in all shapes and sizes. No two people grieve alike so it’s hard to know what is, and what is not, an appropriate way to act after a loved one is taken away. On February 24th 1984 a man began a rampage that ended with his own life. A man who, many speculate, began a shooting spree while grieving the loss of his family.

The Saint Louis Jane Doe - February 23 2023 Feb 23, 2023

Show notes

February 23rd: Little Jane Doe in St. Louis Killed (1983)
Tales involving a John or Jane Doe always seem to have an added layer of sadness to their case. Something about the fact that they are buried without any identity makes their stories just a little bit harder to stomach. Today’s story is one of those cases. On February 23rd 1983 a Jane Doe in St. Louis was killed and, even to this day, no one knows who she is and who brutally killed her.

Introducing COLD: The Search for Sheree - BONUS EP Feb 22, 2023

Show notes

Sheree Warren left her job in Salt Lake City on a mild October evening in 1985.
She told a coworker she was headed to meet her estranged husband, Charles
Warren, at a car dealership. But she never made it, Sheree vanished. When her car mysteriously surfaced weeks later, hundreds of miles away in Las Vegas, no
one could say how it got there.
When a young mother disappears under unexplained circumstances, police
always turn suspicious eyes towards the husband. And although there was
distrust around Charles Warren, he wasn’t the only suspect when Sheree went
missing. She also had a boyfriend, a former cop named Cary Hartmann, who
lived a sinister double life.
Season three follows two suspects– men who both raised suspicion for
investigators. But with two strong persons of interest with competing facts and
evidence, it muddied the murder investigation. This season, host Dave Cawley,
digs into the lives of these two men, the details of the case and examines the
intersections between domestic abuse and sexual violence. The COLD team
seeks to answer the question: what really happened to Sheree Warren?
Hey Prime Members, you can binge all 10 episodes of COLD: The Search for
Sheree ad-free on Amazon Music. Download the Amazon Music app today:
