Casefile Archives 5: Lauria Bible & Ashley Freeman

*** Content Warning: child victims *** Oklahoma teenager Ashley Freeman celebrated her sixteenth birthday by inviting her best friend, Lauria Bible, over for a sleepover. It was a pleasant yet uneventful evening, until the following morning of December 30 1999, when neighbours noticed that the Freemans’ house was engulfed in flames. Emergency services quickly arrived at the scene, where they found the charred remains of Ashley’s mother, Kathy. She had also been shot in the head. The fire was ruled to be arson, but where were Lauria, Ashley or Ashley’s father, Danny? --- Casefile Archives is a series of special bonus releases revisiting the earliest years of the show.

Casefile Archives 6: The Eriksson Twins

PLEASE READ: This episode comes out for free on 14th February and is available early and ad-free for Casefile Premium subscribers. On May 17 2008, Swedish twin sisters Ursula and Sabina Eriksson boarded a bus from Liverpool to London. After a routine road stop, the bus driver noticed the twins were acting suspiciously and were clinging tightly to their bags. Concerned, the driver refused to let Ursula and Sabina back on board. Soon after, two patrol officers were called to an incident on the M6 motorway near the English city of Stoke-on-Trent. Expecting the worst, the officers were surprised to find the Erikkson twins standing calmly and unscathed on the shoulder of the motorway. But within a few minutes, the seemingly calm situation took a frightening turn. --- Casefile Archives is a series of special bonus releases revisiting the earliest years of the show.

Casefile Archives 2: The Somerton Man

In December 1948, the body of an unidentified male was found on Somerton Beach in Adelaide, South Australia. It initially appeared the man had simply passed away in his sleep, but as police looked into his death, they discovered a series of bizarre and unexplainable clues that presented more questions than answers. Was the Somerton Man an international spy? If so, what was he doing in Adelaide? And what significance did the ancient Persian text found in his pocket hold? --- Casefile Archives is a series of special bonus releases revisiting the earliest years of the show.

On January 11, 1965, 15-year-old Christine Sharrock and Marianne Schmidt spent the day at Cronulla Beach with Marianne's four younger siblings. After lunch, the two teenagers went for a walk into the nearby sandhills at Wanda Beach, but never returned. The following day, their bodies were found in the sand dunes.

Searching For Sarah MacDiarmid - Episode 1

With Casefile on a short break, we thought this would be a great time to shine a light on some of the shows that may have flown under the radar for many of you. These are shows we've put our hearts into and are really proud of. Today, we’re sharing another one of those shows — Searching for Sarah MacDiarmid. On 11 July 1990, 23-year-old Sarah MacDiarmid went missing from the Kananook railway station. Blood found beside her car suggested a violent attack — but Sarah was gone, and her body has never been found. Across nine episodes, the series follows Sarah’s last known movements, investigates the witness accounts and leads, revisits the searches, and examines the possible connection to serial killer Paul Denyer. Decades on, Sarah’s family still believe someone knows the truth — and hopes this series will reach the person holding that missing piece. We’re releasing the first episode here on the Casefile feed. You can find the full nine-part series by looking up Searching for Sarah MacDiarmid, wherever you get your podcasts. I hope you enjoy the series. Hosted on Acast.

The Vanishing of Vivienne Cameron - Episode 1

With Casefile on a short break, we thought this would be a great time to shine a light on some of the shows that may have flown under the radar for many of you. These are shows we've put our hearts into and are really proud of. Today, we’re sharing another one of those shows — The Vanishing of Vivienne Cameron. Back in 2018, we covered this case as Case 80: Beth Barnard. But this ten-part series goes far deeper. It’s a long-form investigation, written and hosted by Vikki Petraitis — who co-authored The Phillip Island Murder, the book that first brought this story to public attention. The Vanishing of Vivienne Cameron revisits the events of that night in 1986, when 23-year-old Beth Barnard was found brutally murdered, and 35-year-old Vivienne Cameron—who was the prime suspect in Beth's murder—disappeared without a trace. Across ten episodes, Vikki examines the women at the centre of the case, the evidence, the forensics, the witness accounts, and the many conflicting stories that have shaped public opinion for nearly forty years. It’s a complex, haunting mystery that continues to raise more questions than it answers. We’re releasing the first episode here on the Casefile feed. You can find the full ten-part series by searching for The Vanishing of Vivienne Cameron, wherever you get your podcasts. I hope you enjoy the series. Hosted on Acast.

Vikki Petraitis co-wrote The Phillip Island Murder with journalist Paul Daley. The story that captivated Vikki from the moment she heard of it has had a similar effect on people worldwide. Long after the original book went out of print, people would stumble on it in second-hand stores and get in touch with her. Interest has never really died down. The Phillip Island Murder was featured on an episode of Sensing Murder in 2005, and then became Case 80: Beth Barnard on Casefile in 2018. Casefile Presents asked Vikki to explore the case in a long-form series. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

WAARGEBEURDE MISDAAD
When 20-year-old Matthew Leveson failed to return home after a night out clubbing in Sydney, his loved ones were worried sick. Matty was a trustworthy, warm, and caring young man who adored his friends and family, not the type of person who would just take off without a word. Suspicion soon fell on Matt’s partner, 45-year-old Michael Atkins, after it was revealed that the pair were fighting on the night of Matt’s disappearance. But was that unfortunate timing, or did Atkins have something to hide? Matty is a 10-part series narrated by Loren O’Keeffe from The Missed Foundation (formerly known as MPAN – Missing Persons Advocacy Network). Join Loren as she documents the decade-long struggle faced by Matt’s parents, Mark and Faye, who refused to give up on their son. We go behind the headlines for an exclusive insight into how the investigation unfolded, exploring the failures of law enforcement and the ongoing obstacles faced by the Levesons. At the heart of it all lies the question: how far would you go to bring your loved one home? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It’s been over 35 years since the night Sarah MacDiarmid vanished from the Kananook railway station on Wednesday, 11 July 1990.

This is a very good podcast except the past couple of months every episode can only be listened to if one subscribes. Seriously? And it never becomes available. I listen to all the advertising because I don’t want another subscription. Just be upfront and tell listeners it’s a paid service then we know! Im going to look for a new crime podcast that don’t exclude the public from every new episode!
