    21: Person of Interest -- The Lewis Clark Valley Serial Killer -- Part 2

    Send a text message to the show! Allison and Jayson pick back up where they left off in their discussion of the suspected Lewis-Clark Valley Serial Killer, a case that spans several decades and leaves a lot of baffling clues in its wake. Last episode they detailed the disappearance of 12 year old Christina White of Asotin, Washington. Today they delve into several more disappearances and murders of young adults from the same area, all of which seem to be related to the same suspect.

    20: Person of Interest -- The Lewis-Clark Valley Serial Killer -- Part 1

    Send a text message to the show! Allison teams back up with Jayson Blair of the Silver Linings Handbook in a four part series to track the footsteps of a suspected serial killer who, in a rarity for this show in particular, is still very much alive. While they begin with the 1979 disappearance of 12-year old Christina White from Asotin, Washington, this is a case that potentially spans several decades, both before and after this event, with a suspect who appears to love taunting investigators through classified ads and other oddities. But before diving into the meat of the show, Allison talks a little bit about the period of 1970-2000, which is considered by experts to be the "Golden Age" of serial killers.

    18: Amy Archer Gilligan -- The Real Killer Behind Arsenic and Old Lace

    Send a text message to the show! We're joined by Brett from The Prosecutors for a Vintage Villains Halloween special. In 1941, the play Arsenic and Old Lace debuted to rave reviews on Broadway, and a few years later spawned a movie starring Cary Grant. The story, set on Halloween, about two little old ladies who run a boarding house and poison their infirm tenants made for a fun if macabre screwball comedy, but not many know playwright Joseph Kesselring was inspired by very real events. So we're traveling back to 1916 to talk about Amy Archer-Gilligan, an early pioneer of elder care facilities in the United States. And a key reason why regulations were later created to track deaths at such facilities.
