In the early morning of March 4th, 2022, 33-year-old Kouri Richins called 911 from her home in Kamas, Utah. She said that she'd come back into the bedroom she shared with her 39-year-old husband Eric to find him cold and unresponsive. First responders arrived, but were unable to revive Eric. The father of three was pronounced dead. His autopsy later revealed that he'd ingested about 5 times the lethal amount of Fentanyl. Nobody could believe that Eric had died from a drug overdose. It didn't take long for investigators to zero in on Eric's wife, Kouri. Evidence showed that she'd made significantly poor financial decisions, leaving her in a position that may have led her to commit murder. TRIGGER WARNINGS: drug abuse Hang with us:

On Monday, November 13th, 1961, a crewman aboard an oil tanker spotted something in the water. It was a man in a dinghy, waving frantically to get their attention. They rescued the man, and he told a harrowing story of how he found himself in the small vessel adrift at sea. While some believed him, others had serious doubts about his story, and another rescue days later cast further doubts on his tale. The second rescue was of 11 year old Tere Jo Duperrault, and she told a much different version of the events that left her adrift at sea.

On December 17, 2011, the father of 20-month-old, Ayla Reynolds, called the police to report his daughter missing. Ayla was in the custody of her father and the night she disappeared, there were three adults in the house, but not one of them will say what happened to her. They say that she was kidnapped and they didn't know who took her, but the evidence suggests otherwise. As of this recording, it has been almost 12 years to the day Ayla went missing and her mother still has no answers as to what happened to her 1-year-old daughter that night.

In 1996, the Summer Olympics were held in Atlanta, Georgia. On July 27th, thousands had gathered at Centennial Park for a late night concert. The FBI was told that a tip was called into 911 saying that a bomb would go off in the park within 30 minutes. A search ensued, and the bomb was located by security guard Richard Jewell. An evacuation was ordered, but three minutes into it, the bomb detonated. Two people died as a result of the bombing and 111 others were injured. The person responsible wouldn't be captured until 2003, but before that, Richard Jewell was cast as the hero, then, unjustly the villain in the bombing.

Natalee Holloway was on her senior class trip in Aruba in 2005. The graduates decided to go out with a bang on their last night on the island and went to a popular bar to have some fun and some drinks as the legal drinking age there is 18. Natalee was seen leaving the bar with a few local boys and was never seen again. It's been 18 years and neither Natalee nor her remains have been found. Natalee's family has never stopped looking for her and believe the Aruban police played a big role in covering up what happened to their daughter.
