Stick around after that for some holiday-themed murders from the Saturday Morning Serial Vault. || SOURCES || https://www.coca-colacompany.com/au/news/definitive-history-of-santa-claus | https://www.sttammanylibrary.org/blogs/post/the-legend-of-santa-claus-part-1-the-origin-and-history-of-a-christmas-legend/ | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Nicholas | https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/civil-war-cartoonist-created-modern-image-santa-claus-union-propaganda-180971074/

    #18 - The Cold Case of Christine Gallegos - EXTENDED CUT

    In October 1985, an 18-year-old woman was found shot and stabbed to death on a Salt Lake City street. Her murder has remained unsolved for over 35 years. Why? At best, the SLC Police Department wildly mishandled the case and neglected to follow up on even the most simple leads. At worst, they were actively covering it up to aid the city in its bid for the Winter Olympic Games. Let's dive into the cold case of Christine Gallegos. Make sure to stick around after the episode for an awesome chat with private investigator Jason Jensen. || SOURCES || The Justice Files series by Marcos Ortiz on ABC 4. https://www.abc4.com/news/top-stories/the-justice-files-the-document-that-unveils-an-alleged-killer-pt-2/ https://www.abc4.com/news/top-stories/the-justice-files-after-36-years-police-actively-investigating-cold-case-murder-pt-3/ Jason Jensen - Jensen Investigations | Utah Cold Case Coalition | Interview October 12th, 2019 https://mix1051utah.com/life/sms-cold-case-christine-gallegos/ SLC PD Christine Listing http://www.slcpd.com/1985/05/15/christine-gallegos/ Three Murders, One Gun by Sydnee Gonzalez; BYU Universe Narratives June 12th, 2020 https://universe.byu.edu/narratives/three-murders-one-gun/ Murderpedia.org https://murderpedia.org/male.R/r1/rhoades-paul.htm Deseret News https://www.deseret.com/1994/1/24/19088421/task-force-won-t-probe-s-l-killings OTHER: http://www.clarkprosecutor.org/html/death/US/rhoades1277.htm http://www.fdsidaho.org/clemency/rhoades/full_story.html

    #15 - Serial Cannibal Hadden Clark

    The Clark family was a respectable east coast clan with advanced degrees and enviable careers. Nobody could guess what was going on behind closed doors. Was it the abuse they suffered at the hands of their parents that drove not one BUT TWO of their sons to commit multiple acts of murder and cannibalism? Based heavily on the book "Born Evil" by Adrian Havill, Nightcat tells you the tale of the Cross Dressing Cannibal from Cape Cod Hadden Clark. ||SOURCES|| 'Born Evil' by Adrian Havill (2001 - St. Martin's True Crime Library) | https://murderpedia.org/male.C/c/clark-hadden.htm | https://torontosun.com/2016/12/03/brothers-in-barbarity | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadden_Clark
