Our card this season is Darlene Hulse, the 4 of Hearts from Indiana.

Darlene Hulse was forcibly taken from her home in Argos, Indiana on August 17, 1984. Her two oldest daughters witnessed the attack but they didn’t recognize the man who took their mother. Though Darlene’s body would be found a day later, just six miles from her home, her killer has evaded law enforcement for almost four decades and the investigation has remained cold…until now.

Eye-opener!

It is really disheartening to listen to this podcast. No wonder there are so many unsolved cases. Ashley and her team should be the ones hired to look into cold cases. The authorities attached to this case appear to have bungled it from the start and continue to refuse to do a deep dive into it and test evidence.

Hyperbole

Stupidest, inconclusive waste of time. Does anything come of this? No. If this is about spreading awareness, great. You are the 2020’s “Unsolved Mysteries” super woke hostess. But nothing has come of this and I wasted a lot of time waiting for resolution that never came.

Long
