Show notes

The Tragic Story Of The 2001 Murder Of Andrew Bagby Followed By The 2003 Murder-Suicide Of Andrew's 13 Month Old Zachary Turner And His Mother Shirley Turner [Part 3]
**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**
WARNING: This episode contains details involving the death of a young child and may be difficult to listen to. Listener discretion is advised.
This is the third part of a six part series. If you haven't listened to the first 2 parts, pause this, listen to those first and then come back. Zachary Andrew Turner was murdered by the hands of his mother on August 18, 2003 at the age of 13 months. She also was responsible for the murder of Zachary’s father, Andrew David Bagby, 1 year 9 months and 14 days earlier. In this series, we are going to examine the entire timeline from the very beginning to see just how preventable this tragedy should have been, to examine the warning signs that so many people overlooked, and discuss just how fair the justice system should be when it comes to the rights of parents - especially when that parent is actually facing indictment for her child’s father.

#132 The Tale of the Marine in Lake Mead: The Mystery of Ron Parkhurst Feb 11, 2020

Show notes

The 1997 Unsolved Murder Of USMC Staff Sergeant Ron Parkhurst Who Inexplicably Went AWOL From His Job In Huntington Beach California Only To Turn Up Dead In Lake Mead Nevada
**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**
On Sunday June 15th, 1997, Staff Sergeant Ron Parkhurst inexplicably abandoned his job as a recruiter at his office in Huntington Beach and drove to Las Vegas, Nevada. Six days later, he was found dead, floating in Lake Mead with a gunshot wound to the back of the head. To this day, his murder is unsolved. In this episode, we explore Ron’s possible state of mind when he decided to leave California, what in his background may have led to him seemingly abruptly walk out on his life, what happened in the days leading up to his death, and how he ended up dead in Lake Mead. I have had a chance to speak to Orange County Register Journalist Keith Sharon who has written just about the only article out there on this case, and will be talking to him further about it. Please check the links below to read his article from November of 2019.

On Monday May 6th, 1996, wife and mother Sherri Dally dropped her two children off at school, stopped at Target to do some shopping before heading home where she operated a daycare. She never made it home. Her van was found in the Target parking lot, abandoned, her keys in the ignition, purchases and handbag on the seat, but no sign of Sherri. Witnesses later came forward to say they saw Sherri being arrested by a blonde police officer wearing a tan pants suit. But records indicated no arrest was made that day by any local law enforcement agency. Who arrested Sherri and more importantly, where was she taken? Voicemail Courtesy of Kian in Cleveland, Ohio

Two days after Christmas in 1986, 20 year old Cara Evelyn Knott was driving to her home where she lived with her parents in El Cajon, California after spending time with her boyfriend who was sick that day in Escondido. When she didn’t arrive home in at the time she expected, her father, Sam was sure something was wrong. He drove all night looking for any sign of Cara or her car. It wasn’t until the following day that her VW bug was spotted abandoned on a dead end, desolate exit ramp under a bridge. Shortly thereafter, he lifeless body was also discovered. She had been bludgeoned, strangled, and thrown off the bridge. After a 3 week investigation, authorities arrested Craig Peyer. What made this case even more heartbreaking - Peyer was a 13 year veteran CHP officer - someone who should be trusted to protect and serve. Voicemail Courtesy of Paul Csomo host of VARMINTS!!

Show notes

Christi Hall's Drowning In Her Jacuzzi On June 7, 2007 Appeared To Be An Accident Until A Neighbor Called 911 Claiming She Witnessed Something Much More Nefarious. Did Chris Hall Murder His Wife Of Almost 30 Years? [Part 2]
**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**
This is the second part of a 2 part episode. Please listen to Episode 127 first. On June 7th, 2007, Chris and Christi Hall were up early rinsing off in their backyard spa, as their bathrooms were under renovation, when suddenly Chris began shouting for help from his daughter, who was asleep inside. Christi had apparently fallen, hit her head on the side of the concrete spa and fallen in the water. Paramedics were called, but there was nothing that could be done…Christi Hall was dead of an apparent accidental drowning. But what Chris Hall didn’t realize was there was someone on the other side of their backyard wall that was catching glimpses of what was going on, and to her it was definitely not a simple slip and fall.
