________

Wade Griffin and Taylor Parker lived on a hog farm in rural TX. In 2020, they fell on hard times and were looking to sell some of their livestock when they came across a man online who was in the market for hogs. Scott Robinson lived in Wynnewood, OK which is over 3 hours away and with Taylor being over 9 months pregnant, she opted out of traveling but insisted Wade go so they don't lose the sale. Taylor was being induced that day so the plan was to meet at the hospital after the deal was done. Wade made the trek only to be told by the homeowner that he had been catfished. He was pissed at the thought of missing the birth of his first child, but he had no idea what type of evil he was actually dealing with

When Detective Morris McGowan walked into the brutal crime scene of a 33-year-old woman in Dallas, TX, he knew it wasn't going to be an ordinary investigation...but holy shit he could've never guessed it would be like this!

What starts as a (seemingly) straightforward homicide turns far more complicated when everyone's secrets start coming out.

Corinna Mullen | 212 Jun 25, 2026

Show notes

On October 2, 1987, a city worker in Central City, Kentucky noticed a car parked where it shouldn't be. Upon examining the car, he realized blood was dripping out of the trunk. He called 911 and lead homicide detective Billy Fields arrived to find 20-year-old Corinna Mullen brutally murdered. There was very little physical evidence, yet a few possible suspects surfaced. Even so, it would be almost 20 years before there was justice and the true story behind what happened and who is behind it is absolutely batsh*t.

In March 2015, a developer was checking his construction site in North Ridgeville, Ohio when he finds the body of a young woman behind a mound of snow. She was beaten, bound and naked from the waist down. There was no purse, no ID, no phone and no missing persons report. Nothing. After two days and zero leads, police do something they almost never do: they show a black-and-white photo of her face on the evening news... post-mortem.

Across town, a 45-year-old mother is sitting on her couch when she looks up and sees her own daughter's dead face on the television. What unravels from there is shocking and infuriating...

Show notes

In 2015, Matthew Yussman and his 70-year-old mother were held hostage and Matthew was forced to rob the very credit union that employed him. The entire situation is bizarre and the FBI can't determine if Michael is actually a victim or a criminal mastermind. A few months later and 800 miles away in Tennessee, three different families experience the exact same thing. Finally, not one but TWO high speed chases hold the answer to everything.

It was 1981 in Naperville, IL. A woman, who lived alone, woke up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. In her groggy state, she walked out of her bedroom and saw a man she didn't know stabbed to death on her living room floor. It was 18-year-old Charles Huber and he had been stabbed 28 times... and right on top of him was her boyfriend, Bruce Lindahl, who had also been stabbed. Naperville was not a place that had double homicides so the police were stumped. It would take investigators over 40 years before they fully understood what they saw that night; and it was much bigger than anyone realized

Carla Walker | 208 May 28, 2026

Show notes

In 1974, 17-year-old Carla Walker went to a high school dance with her boyfriend Rodney McCoy and never came home. Countless people were interviewed, there was a confession that turned out bogus, and sadly it would be 46 years and a trip to CrimeCon before the Walker Family finally got answers
