    “Is Dorothy Home?” - The Murder of Dorothy Jane Scott

    For months, Dorothy Jane Scott received anonymous phone calls from a man who said he was watching her. He knew where she worked. He knew where she went at night. Sometimes he even described the clothes she had worn that day… or the car she was driving. At first, Dorothy tried to ignore the calls. But they kept coming. Sometimes the caller sounded angry. Other times, almost obsessed. On one occasion, he told her he was going to cut her up into pieces. Dorothy was terrified. She started taking self-defense classes and even considered buying a gun. But whoever was calling always remained anonymous. Then, on the night of May 28, 1980, Dorothy drove a coworker to the hospital after he had been bitten by a spider. After parking her white Toyota station wagon, she went inside with him. A short time later, Dorothy stepped outside to bring the car around to the front entrance. But instead of pulling up to the hospital doors, her car suddenly sped through the parking lot… and disappeared into the night. Dorothy Jane Scott was never seen alive again. And in the years that followed, the phone calls didn’t stop. But now, they were coming to her family. Each time, the caller asked the same chilling question: “Is Dorothy home?” If you’d like to support the show and help fund research, production, and editing, you can do so with a small monthly contribution on Patreon.

  3. Lauren Agee: The Mysterious Death at WakeFest

    Lauren Agee: The Mysterious Death at WakeFest

    #329 - In July of 2015, thousands of people gathered along the river for a weekend of music, camping, and wakeboarding. The annual event known as WakeFest was supposed to be a carefree summer getaway, a place where friends could relax, drink, and enjoy the water. But by the end of that weekend, one of the campers would be dead. Twenty-one-year-old Lauren Agee had been camping on a steep cliff overlooking the river with friends she trusted. Sometime during the night, she disappeared from the campsite. Hours later, her body was discovered hundreds of feet below in the water. At first, investigators believed it was a tragic accident, that Lauren had fallen from the cliff in the dark. But when her family began asking questions, they uncovered troubling details that didn’t seem to add up. Injuries that appeared inconsistent with a simple fall. A chaotic campsite. Conflicting witness statements. And a crime scene that many believe was never properly investigated. More than a decade later, the circumstances surrounding Lauren’s death remain fiercely debated. Was it truly an accident? Or did something far more sinister happen on that cliff that night? Forensic Tales is a Rockefeller Audio production. The show is written and produced by Courtney Fretwell.

    The Oklahoma Peeping Tom Killer: The Murder of Gary Larson

    #328 - When police in Oklahoma got a call from a woman saying a man wearing only gloves and a pair of underwear broke into her house, killed her boyfriend, and tortured her for hours, it seemed almost too far-fetched to be true. But as detectives combed through the forensic evidence at the scene, it seemed to line up perfectly with her story. What they didn’t realize at the time was that this brutal attack was connected to a predator who had been quietly slipping in and out of homes for years — watching, stalking, and committing crimes no one ever saw coming. For nearly two decades, he managed to evade capture. And when investigators finally uncovered who he was, the truth revealed a disturbing pattern: a man who had been hiding in plain sight while secretly living a double life as a voyeur, a prowler… and eventually, a killer.

    The Gerhardt Konig Trial: The Verdict

    The verdict is in. In this special episode of Forensic Tales, we take a closer look at the trial of Gerhardt Konig, the Hawaii doctor accused of violently attacking his wife during a hike earlier this year. Prosecutors argued that the assault was deliberate and brutal, pointing to physical evidence and testimony presented during the trial. The defense, however, painted a very different picture, suggesting the events unfolded in a far more complicated way. Over the course of the trial, jurors heard testimony about the timeline of the attack, the injuries involved, and the forensic evidence that investigators used to reconstruct what happened that day. Now, after days of testimony and deliberation, the jury has reached its decision. In this episode, we’ll break down the key moments from the trial, the arguments from both sides, the forensic evidence presented in court, and the verdict that ultimately decided Gerhardt Konig’s fate.

    Robert Roberson

    #327 - For years, prosecutors across the United States relied on a diagnosis known as Shaken Baby Syndrome to explain the sudden deaths of infants and toddlers. In many cases, that diagnosis became the foundation for criminal convictions. But over time, some doctors and forensic experts began questioning the science behind it. In 2002, a two-year-old girl in Texas died after being rushed to the hospital. Her father was later accused of shaking her to death and was ultimately sentenced to death. More than twenty years later, his case has become part of a growing debate over whether some convictions may have relied on flawed or misunderstood evidence.

    #326 - When a 17-year-old beauty school student went missing in February 2010, the residents of a small Washington town were left stunned. Then just days later, the teen's body was discovered by a passerby on the banks of the Columbia River. What began as a desperate search quickly turned into something far more disturbing—an investigation filled with false leads, unsettling rumors, and a suspect hiding in plain sight. Because in this case… the answers weren’t just buried in secrets. They were written in the forensic evidence.  This is the murder of Mackenzie Cowell.
