    The Murder of Shauna Howe

    In late October 1992, the small town of Oil City, PA, was shattered when 11-year-old Shauna Howe vanished while walking home from a youth Halloween event. What followed was a community-wide nightmare: the discovery of her body beneath a bridge, a decade of cold leads, and an entire town too terrified to let their children trick-or-treat. It would take nearly 13 years and a massive DNA breakthrough to reveal the multi-person conspiracy behind her brutal murder. This week, we examine the tragic murder of Shauna Howe and the relentless investigation that finally brought her killers to justice.

    In the early morning hours of April 6, 1986, nine-year-old Anthonette Cayedito vanished from her home in Gallup, New Mexico. Affectionately known as “Squirrel,” Anthonette was a deeply devoted fourth-grader who helped take care of her younger sisters. What started as a frantic morning search quickly evolved into one of America’s most baffling and heartbreaking missing child cases. In this episode, we break down the perplexing timeline of her disappearance, a terrifying 1987 phone call from a frantic girl claiming to be Anthonette, and the chilling “Help Me” napkin note left behind at a Nevada diner years later.

    The Disappearance of Eric Grady Smith: Left in the Wilderness

    An experienced hunter walks into his own woods and completely vanishes. In late 2013, Eric Grady Smith was a well-respected coal mine supervisor and a dedicated family man living in Cedar Bluff, Virginia. Battling minor flu-like symptoms, he left his cell phone behind for what was meant to be a short trek to his deer stand. Despite massive search operations, not a single piece of clothing, footprint, or his .50 caliber rifle has ever been recovered. Did Eric suffer an unforeseen medical emergency in the dense terrain, or did he stumble into a far more dangerous situation? We dive into the unsettling mystery of a wilderness disappearance where the wilderness itself yielded zero clues.

    The Disappearance of Jean Spangler

    What really happened to Jean Spanger? In October 1949, the young Hollywood starlet went missing after walking out of her apartment for a supposed night shoot. No one on set had any record of her working. Then came the clues: a vandalized purse, a cryptic handwritten note, and whispers connecting her to major film stars and notorious mobsters. We bread down the timeline, the suspect list, and the lingering theories - including a possible tie to the infamous Black Dahlia investigation.
