Our card this season is Darlene Hulse, the 4 of Hearts from Indiana.
Darlene Hulse was forcibly taken from her home in Argos, Indiana on August 17, 1984. Her two oldest daughters witnessed the attack but they didn’t recognize the man who took their mother. Though Darlene’s body would be found a day later, just six miles from her home, her killer has evaded law enforcement for almost four decades and the investigation has remained cold…until now.

Another quality podcast
Like always Ashleigh and her team have put together a banger of a show.
Heartbreaking
Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. I found this series utterly heartbreaking but essential listening . The strength of Darlene’s daughter’s is inspirational. Told beautifully once again by Ashley
Sensitively told
I always feel terrible saying ‘fantastic podcast’ when it’s someone’s life and a family suffering. This is a sad story, it’s very well told.
