Show notes

August 27th: Girly Chew Hossencofft Born (1963)
What happens when a simple missing person’s case becomes bogged down with bizarre and larger than life details? On August 27th 1963 a woman was born who would disappear in 1999. Her case, which should have been a tragic, but run of the mill, story of a dangerous husband turned into a media circus when the man responsible for her disappearance started talking about the CIA, immortality, cannibalism, lizard people, and alien takeovers.

On August 26th 1976 a young girl disappeared and her case went unsolved for decades. A case that, given a few small mistakes and one new piece of evidence, was able to be solved and bring closure to her family.

Show notes

August 25th: Ramil Safarov Born (1977)
One event can alter the course of a person’s entire life. On August 25th 1977 a young man was born and, pretty early in life, was subject to a war between his country and another. A war that lost him family members, forced his move, and altered the course of his life so much he claimed it was the reason he picked up an axe and took the life of a fellow soldier who happened to be from the country he hated.
