    The Grim Sleeper: A Serial Killer Hidden in Plain Sight

    For decades, the Grim Sleeper terrorized South Los Angeles — killing women in neighborhoods he knew by heart, often within miles of his own home. Lonnie Franklin Jr. wasn’t a criminal mastermind or a drifter moving between states. He was a neighbor. A city worker. A man who lived quietly beneath the LAX flight path while violence unfolded around him. In this episode of UNMARKED, we break down how Franklin was able to operate for nearly thirty years without being caught — and why traditional serial-killer profiling failed to see what was happening right in front of investigators. Using geographic profiling, DNA evidence, and firsthand accounts, we examine how systemic blind spots, ignored communities, and outdated assumptions allowed one of America’s most prolific serial killers to hide in plain sight. This is not a story about a monster. It’s a story about what happens when the most vulnerable voices go unheard — and what we can learn from the Grim Sleeper case to prevent it from happening again.   UNMARKED: A true crime podcast built on real cases and never-before-heard audio.   #truecrime #unmarkedpodcast  #documentary  #realaudio  #grimsleeper

    Dee Dee Moore: The Lottery Winner Buried Beneath the Lies

    On April 6th, 2009, a man vanished in Lakeland, Florida. Seven months later, investigators uncovered one of the most shocking fraud-to-murder cases in modern true crime. This episode of Unmarked investigates the con, the deception, and the killing of lottery winner Abraham Shakespeare—through prison interviews, interrogation recordings, recovered police files, and a psychological analysis of the woman at the center of the case: Dorice “Dee Dee” Moore. For months, Moore told anyone who would listen that Abraham was alive. She forged documents, sent fake text messages, created phantom sightings, and even tried to buy a false confession. Behind the scenes, she controlled his money, his assets, and ultimately his fate. But today, for the first time, we tell the full story—from the moment Abraham met Dee Dee, to the rapid transfer of his wealth, to the undercover operation that exposed her shifting stories, and the discovery of his body beneath a concrete slab behind her property. Featuring original recordings, exclusive prison audio, archival reporting, and a forensic breakdown of her pathological lies, this is the most complete account of the Dee Dee Moore case ever told. James Buddy Day is an award-winning true crime filmmaker known for directing and producing some of the most watched and most discussed crime documentaries today. His work covers infamous killers, cold cases, cults, missing persons, and some of the biggest true-crime stories of the last decade. #DeeDeeMoore #AbrahamShakespeare #TrueCrimePodcast #CriminalPsychology #UnmarkedPodcast

    Bob Berdella- The Confession No One Heard- Part 2

    In part 2 we dig deeper into Bob’s Diaries and into the years that his fantasies darken into a calculated pattern. This episode of Unmarked investigates the crimes of “Bizarre” Bob Berdella, City’s first documented serial killer—using never-before-heard material, recovered police files, and an AI restoration of Berdella’s sealed confession. For decades, the confession was believed lost. The tapes were ordered destroyed. The documents were sealed. And the case slipped out of the headlines after a massive explosion reshaped the city’s priorities. Featuring interviews with investigators, archival reporting, original documents, and restored audio based on the only surviving descriptions of the confession, this is the most complete account of the Berdella case ever told.

    Robert Pickton: The Final Interview

    Before his death, Robert Pickton calls from prison. The recording he leaves behind — never before heard — reveals a man who still believes he hasn’t been caught. In this episode of Unmarked, we uncover the story of Canada’s most notorious figures through his own words, and through the detectives who tried to stop him. Lead investigator Lorimer Shenher recounts the warnings that were ignored, the evidence that was missed, and the moment Pickton nearly confessed. From Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside to the pig farm in Port Coquitlam, this is the story of how decades of indifference allowed a killer to hunt freely — and how a single phone call, years later, exposes the mind of a man who never believed he was guilty.   James Buddy Day is an award-winning true crime filmmaker known for directing and producing some of the most watched and most discussed crime documentaries today. His work covers infamous serial killers, cold cases, cults, missing persons, and some of the biggest true-crime stories of the last decade. #RobertPickton #TrueCrimePodcast #SerialKiller #CanadianTrueCrime #UnmarkedPodcast
