Uncovering Jane Doe - May 30 2024 May 30, 2024

Show notes

May 30th: Michelle Busha's Body Found (1980)

Jane and John Doe cases are always frustrating ones. Especially when the identity remains a mystery. This case, however, has the small silver lining of not just finding out who the victim was, but putting her killer behind bars for her murder.

Two Identical Murders That Happened 157 Years Apart - May 27 2024 May 27, 2024

Show notes

May 27th: Mary Ashford and Barbara Forest Killed(1817 and 1974)

In a world filled with conspiracy theories, it becomes hard to hear stories about the unexplainable and not wonder if theorists might be right. On May 27th, in 1817 and 1974, two completely unrelated events happened that seemed like history repeating itself. Two cases far too similar to not wonder what other-wordly force could be at play.
