Throwback: Maggie Freleng on Gilgo Beach Murders Jul 21, 2023

Show notes

With the BREAKING NEWS of an arrest in the Gilgo Beach Murders and being unable to get to my studio, here is the episode I did with TV/True Crime Personality Maggie Freleng about the case. I will have a BRAND NEW episode covering both this case and the injustice of Alissa Turney's case next Friday. Suffolk County’s new police commissioner announced in February the creation of a special joint task force to solve the decade-old Gilgo Beach murders. A new interagency task force including investigators from the FBI, as well as state and local police departments, will try to solve the decade-old mystery of human remains found strewn along a New York beach highway, officials announced Tuesday. The formation of the Gilgo Beach task force represents a renewed commitment to investigating the unsolved killings of mostly young women whose skeletal remains were found along a highway on Long Island, Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison said. “As I said on Day One as police commissioner, I believe this case is solvable and identifying the person or people responsible for these murders is a top priority,” Harrison, who took over the top job at the Suffolk County department last month, said in a news release.

The Dixie Mafia Jun 16, 2023

Show notes

The Dixie Mafia was a very loose network of criminals who operated across the South in the 1960s and 1970s, and even into the 80s. They were dealing in drugs, gambling, prostitution, and MURDER. They weren't really a gang, just a bunch of dudes who hung out together and did some seriously shady stuff.

15-year-old Patty Desmond with author Maureen Boyle Jun 09, 2023

Show notes

BRAND NEW EPISODE! HER CASE HAD BEEN CLOSED—BUT NOT FORGOTTEN. On an unseasonably warm winter evening in Pennsylvania, 15-year-old Patty Desmond sneaked out through the basement of her house. She had a history of running away, and that, combined with an argument with her mother, gave police reason to suspect she’d come home in a week or two. The year was 1965. That night was the last time her family ever saw her. Conrad Eugene Miller was well-known to local law enforcement. An older married man with a child, Miller’s association with Patty was questionable at best. Yet he was the last person known to have seen her alive—and the suspect police continued to circle back toward. After nothing but false sightings and rumors, the case was moved to the backburner—where it stayed. As decades crept by, reality sunk Patty Desmond was never coming back. Then, a tiny crack unleashed a flood of information, and a mystery that had never quite been forgotten was solved.
