A Trial by Podcast

Askolta Media

Whether it's a true crime case or one of history's most unsettling stories, we understand that the devil is in the details. In each episode, we comb through the facts, scrutinize the suspects, and deliver the disturbing stories that keep you on the edge of your seat. If you enjoy evidence-driven storytelling with a dash of gallows humor to make the disturbing (somewhat) tolerable, we suspect this is the pod for you. But this is A Trial by Podcast, so we'll let you be the judge.

    Ep. 120 | Sherri Papini: 22 Days Missing [Part 1]

    On the afternoon of November 2nd, 2016, a thirty-four-year-old stay-at-home mother named Sherri Papini went for a jog near her home in Mountain Gate, a small community just outside of Redding, in Northern California’s Shasta County. She left her two young children at daycare, laced up her shoes, and headed out into a mild autumn afternoon. She did not come back. Her husband, Keith Papini, returned from work that evening to find an empty house. The children were still at daycare — uncharacteristically uncollected. He used the Find My iPhone app to trace Sherri’s phone and drove to the location it showed: a roadside near Sunrise Drive, about a mile from their home. What he found there was her cell phone and her earbuds, lying in the dirt on the side of the road. Wound around the earbuds were several strands of blonde hair. Sherri Papini was gone, and 22 days later she would reappear on the side of a road 150 miles from her home, looking gaunt, with a chain tied around her waist, and the word “exodus” branded into her back. It was a story that seemed to demand justice — and it would, eventually, get it, just not in the way anyone expected. ⭐ Support the show on Patreon for bonus content & ad-free listening! ⭐ https://www.patreon.com/c/ATRIALBYPODCAST 🎙️Sponsors, special offers & discount codes: https://www.atrialbypodcast.com/sponsors Find us everywhere: 🔗 All links: https://linktr.ee/atrialbypodcast 🌐 Website: https://atrialbypodcast.com 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558845693491 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/atrialbypodcast 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@atrialbypodcast 📧 Contact: atrialbypodcast@gmail.com Theme Music: https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischief License code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCS Sources for this episode will be posted at atrialbypodcast.com within 30 days of the publish date.

    Ep. 119 | The Murder of Helle Crafts

    In November 1986, Helle Crafts was reported missing. Danish flight attendant and mother of three, Helle had been planning to leave her husband after discovering he'd been having an affair. What followed was one of the most gruesome and forensically groundbreaking murder investigations in American history. Because there was no body. There was no crime scene. There was, however, a rented woodchipper, a freezer purchased just days before Helle vanished, and a witness who spotted a man feeding something into a chipper on the banks of the Housatonic River in the dead of a blizzard. Investigators ultimately recovered bone fragments, a fingernail, strands of blonde hair, and a single crown from Helle's tooth — enough to piece together what Richard Crafts had done to his wife, and enough to put him away. He became the first person in Connecticut history to be convicted of murder without a body. This is the story of Helle Crafts — and the case that changed forensic investigation forever. ⭐ Support the show on Patreon for bonus content & ad-free listening! ⭐ https://www.patreon.com/c/ATRIALBYPODCAST 🎙️Sponsors, special offers & discount codes: https://www.atrialbypodcast.com/sponsors Find us everywhere: 🔗 All links: https://linktr.ee/atrialbypodcast 🌐 Website: https://atrialbypodcast.com 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558845693491 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/atrialbypodcast 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@atrialbypodcast 📧 Contact: atrialbypodcast@gmail.com Theme Music: https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischief License code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCS Sources for this episode will be posted at atrialbypodcast.com within 30 days of the publish date.

    Ep. 118 | The Vanishing of the Springfield Three [Part 2 of 2]

    On June 6, 1992, 19-year-old Suzie Streeter and 18-year-old Stacy McCall proudly walked across the stage and received their diplomas from Springfield, Missouri’s Kickapoo high school. Like any other teen on graduation day, the girls had a long night of party hopping ahead of them before they ended up back at Suzie’s house to spend the night before going to a waterpark with friends the next morning. However, when friends Janelle Kirby and Mike Henson came to get them the next morning, they found the house empty. Stacy, Suzie, and Suzie’s mom, 47-year-old Sherill Levitt, were gone, all three of the women’s cars, keys, and purses were at the house. Even stranger, the phone rang while they were there. Janelle answered, and a man's voice on the other end immediately launched into sexual remarks. To this day, the man remains unidentified, and Suzie, Stacy, and Sherill have never been seen again.

    Ep. 116 | The Disappearance of Cindy Anderson

    On August 4, 1981, twenty-year-old Cindy Anderson went to work as a legal secretary at a Toledo, Ohio law office. With just ten days left before she was set to leave for Bible college, vanished from work that day without a trace. When her bosses arrived that afternoon, her car was in the parking lot, but Cindy was gone. The romance novel Cindy had been reading was left open on her desk, as if she had been interrupted while reading it. The page it was open to was the only violent scene in the book, where the female protagonist is abducted and knifepoint. In the weeks prior, she had been receiving deeply disturbing phone calls at the office and suffering from recurring nightmares about being attacked, prompting her employers to install an emergency buzzer at her desk and leading her to keep the office doors locked at all times, yet Cindy did not ring the buzzer the day she disappeared. To this day, Cindy has never been found. ⭐ Support the show on Patreon for bonus content & ad-free listening! ⭐ https://www.patreon.com/c/ATRIALBYPODCAST 🎙️Sponsors, special offers & discount codes: https://www.atrialbypodcast.com/sponsors Find us everywhere: 🔗 All links: https://linktr.ee/atrialbypodcast 🌐 Website: https://atrialbypodcast.com 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558845693491 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/atrialbypodcast 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@atrialbypodcast 📧 Contact: atrialbypodcast@gmail.com Theme Music: https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischief License code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCS Sources for this episode will be posted at atrialbypodcast.com within 30 days of the publish date.

    Ep. 115 | The Camm Family Murders [Part 2 of 2]

    On the night of September 28th, 2000, former Indiana State Police trooper David Camm came home from a church basketball game to find his wife Kim and their two young children, Bradley and Jill, shot to death in the garage of their Georgetown, Indiana home.  Some believed it was the husband — a serial cheater, with life insurance policies on his family and his daughter's blood on his shirt. Others believed it was a convicted predator who had walked out of prison three months before the murders, whose M.O. seemed to fit the crime.Prosecutors would eventually argue it was both men, working together — despite there not being a single piece of evidence proving they had ever met.  There would be thirteen years of trials, convictions, appeals, and reversals. Alleged evidence suppression and fabricated expert credentials. Blood spatter evidence that experts would eventually call guesswork, used to convict a man twice. Jailhouse informants with violent criminal records of their own. A DNA database query that took two hours but wasn’t run for four years. A prosecutor who allegedly lied to the defense, pressured analysts to change their testimony, and threatened a witness with obstruction charges when she refused. Allegations of evidence tampering that reached into the police evidence room itself. And at the center of all of it, a man serving thirteen years in prison for murders the evidence had pointed away from him since the night they were committed.  ⭐ Support the show on Patreon for bonus content & ad-free listening! ⭐ https://www.patreon.com/c/ATRIALBYPODCAST Find us everywhere: 🔗 All links: https://linktr.ee/atrialbypodcast 🌐 Website: https://atrialbypodcast.com 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558845693491 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/atrialbypodcast 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@atrialbypodcast 📧 Contact: atrialbypodcast@gmail.com Theme Music: https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischief License code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCS Sources for this episode will be posted at atrialbypodcast.com within 30 days of the publish date.

    Ep. 113 | The Murder of Missy Bevers: A Killer Caught on Camera Remains at Large

    Before sunrise on April 18th, 2016, Missy Bevers pulled into the parking lot of Creekside Church of Christ in Midlothian, Texas. She was early — she was always early. She had a 5 AM workout class to set up for, equipment to haul in, a room to arrange. What she didn't know was that someone was already inside the building. Someone who had been there for over an hour. Someone dressed head to toe in full tactical gear, wearing a helmet, gloves, and a vest with the word POLICE printed across the chest. Someone moving methodically through the empty church hallways, breaking glass, trying doors, and waiting. When Missy's students arrived for class at 5 AM, they found her bloodied body. Church surveillance cameras showed her killer moving throughout the building, yet more than ten years later, that person has never been identified. This is the unsolved murder of Missy Bevers. ⭐ Support the show on Patreon for bonus content & ad-free listening! ⭐ https://www.patreon.com/c/ATRIALBYPODCAST Find us everywhere: 🔗 All links: https://linktr.ee/atrialbypodcast 🌐 Website: https://atrialbypodcast.com 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558845693491 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/atrialbypodcast 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@atrialbypodcast 📧 Contact: atrialbypodcast@gmail.com Theme Music: https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/mr-mischief License code: MOYK9CTUWGH7BLCS Sources for this episode will be posted at atrialbypodcast.com within 30 days of the publish date.
