    Underwater and on the Run | EP 6

    In 1971, a quiet New Jersey suburb was shaken by a crime that began behind the doors of a mansion built to project success, order, and respectability. For weeks, no one knew what had happened inside the home. The family kept to themselves. The house stayed silent. The lights slowly burned out. By the time police entered, the man responsible was already gone. This episode of Documented 187 follows a case built around image, control, financial pressure, religious justification, and an eighteen-year disappearance that ended only after a national television broadcast helped expose the truth.

The wounds are too precise. The evidence raises more questions than answers. What follows is a case shaped by silence, stagingallegations, forensic gaps, and a legal outcome that still leaves one family waiting for the truth.

    Don't Forget to Lock the Door | EP 2

    Sacramento, 1977. A quiet neighborhood. An unlocked door. A man who believed he needed blood to survive. This episode follows a case that exposed deep failures in the mental health and criminal justice systems — a man hospitalized, diagnosed, medicated, and then released back into the world with almost no net beneath him. We examine the warning signs that preceded the violence, the victims whose lives were taken, and what the investigation ultimately revealed about how crime scenes can reflect the mind of the person who created them. Content warning: This episode contains disturbing behavior involving animals, descriptions of violence, and references to harm against children. Listener discretion is advised.

    They Traded Everything for a Moment of Pleasure | EP 1

    It is 1:00 a.m. on Interstate 75. The thick Florida humidity looks like smoke in the high beams. You pull over on the dark shoulder because you think you’re in charge. You’ve got the car, the cash, and you’re twice her size. But the power dynamic vanishes the second you hear the click of the hammer. In the series premiere of Documented 187, we dive into a case that shattered FBI profiles and flipped the predator-prey dynamic on its head. When investigators relied on textbooks to find a male drifter, they completely missed the lethal threat hiding in plain sight on the Florida highways. Ayana breaks down the psychology of a war-zone childhood, the pawnshop paper trail that broke the case, and the ultimate betrayal that sent a killer to death row. Slide into the shadows. LEGAL DISCLAIMER: This episode utilizes dramatic storytelling rooted in true events and is not a verbatim historical record. The views expressed are solely those of the host.
