    MYSTERIOUS DEATH: Unsolved Hotel Murders

    In 1892, a woman calling herself Lottie Bernard checked into the Hotel del Coronado alone, sick, and afraid — and was found dead five days later, the bullet in her body not matching the gun she bought. Over forty years later, a young man registered as Roland T. Owen sat alone in a dark Kansas City hotel room with the door unlocked, as if waiting for whoever came to kill him. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy investigates both cases — separated by decades and a thousand miles, but united by fake names, unanswered questions, and killers who were never found.

    UNSOLVED: The Murder of Jeannette DePalma 2

    After the discovery of 16-year-old Jeannette DePalma’s body in a New Jersey quarry, investigators were left with more questions than answers. With no clear cause of death and a crime scene that some believed pointed to something ritualistic, rumors of the occult quickly took hold and began to shape both public fear and the direction of the case. In Part 2 of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy examines how speculation and early theories may have derailed the investigation, the suspects who emerged as detectives searched for answers, and the possible connections to other murders in the area. As the case grew more complex, one man came under increasing scrutiny, but proving his involvement would be far more difficult. Decades later, Jeannette’s murder remains unsolved, and the truth of what happened to her is still out of reach.

    UNSOLVED: The Murder of Jeannette DePalma 1

    In 1972, 16-year-old Jeannette DePalma disappeared from her quiet suburban neighborhood in Springfield, New Jersey, and at first, no one treated it as a crisis. Known as a rebellious teenager with a complicated reputation, many believed she had simply run away. But as weeks passed with no word, that assumption began to unravel. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy examines Jeannette’s life, the conflicting perceptions that shaped her story, and the early investigation that struggled to gain traction. When her remains were discovered weeks later in a nearby quarry under unsettling circumstances, the case took a darker turn and set the stage for a mystery that would only grow more complex.

    SOLVED: Anni Dewani 2

    After suspicion fell on Shrien Dewani in the murder of his wife, Anni, the case quickly expanded into an international legal battle over whether he would be extradited to South Africa to stand trial. As prosecutors worked to build their case, the question of what truly happened on the couple’s honeymoon became even more contested. In Part 2 of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy examines the fight over Dewani’s extradition, the courtroom proceedings that followed, and the testimony surrounding Anni’s killing. The prosecution argued that the attack had been carefully orchestrated, while the defense challenged the credibility of key witnesses and the deals made in exchange for their cooperation. As the case moved toward a verdict, it left behind deep uncertainty about the truth. More than a decade later, the murder of Anni Dewani remains one of the most debated and controversial international true crime cases.
