The Night the Mountain Fell Aug 18, 2020

In August 1959, a violent earthquake shook the ground underneath campers at the Madison Lake and Hebgen Lake, near Yellowstone National Park. In total darkness, chaos ensued when the force of the earthquake made water from the lakes flood the area and caused the mountains around them to crumble.

Show notes

A quiet summer night turned deadly when an intruder broke into Amy Quinton's condo, stabbing her and her roommate. Amy did not survive her injuries, but the other eyewitnesses at the scene identified her killer - a man jailed in Illinois for rape and robbery.

Koyle's Dream Mine Jun 30, 2020

Show notes

In the late 1880's, John Hyrum Koyle had a dream that a local mine was full of treasure to assist the LDS church in times of crisis. Koyle had a history of his dreams coming true in his waking life, and others believed this to be true as well. After selling thousands of shares to dig in the mine, nothing of value was found. Is there still unearthed treasure in Salem or was it a hoax?

Anthony Adams Jun 02, 2020

Show notes

Anthony Adams was ahead of his time in the late 70s in Salt Lake City. Being a gay, African American socialist in the community was not easy, but he thrived being a voice and bringing awareness to the causes he was passionate about. When Anthony failed to show up for a protest he was expected to attend, his boyfriend went to his home, finding him brutally murdered. Who would want Anthony dead and why? Was it a crime of passion? A political assassination? Or a robbery gone wrong?
