True Crime Couple True Crime Couple

On April 17, 2016 A motorist found the burned, beaten, and frostbit body of a woman on a desolate stretch of Highway 212 in the Crow Reservation in Montana. Miraculously she was still alive. Join me as I tell John the case of Roylynn Rides Horse and the senseless act of violence that left her in the condition in which she was found. 

Trigger Warning: domestic violence, extreme violence

** Correction: the time between the murder of Hanna Harris and Roylynn Rides Horse was 3 years not 9, I apologize.**

Today’s case spans three countries and the course of ten years.

The case that we have for you today will take us on a scenic road trip from the beautiful Vancouver Island through the majestic pacific northwestern state of Washington, with our final destination being Seattle. But somewhere along the way a wrong turn was taken, and the vast and dense forests around us, once beautiful and intoxicating, will take on a new sinister light. And very quickly the trip that was supposed to be fun for a young, new couple, just beginning to map out their own lives, would send them on the path towards their brutal murders…because a killer was now following them.  Join me as I tell John the case of Jay Cook and Tanya Van Cuylenborg

In New Washoe City, Nevada two armed gunmen stormed into the trailer of the Dodd Family in late December of 2012. In their wake they would leave the head of the household dead and a family reeling from the seemingly senseless act of violence. But as the investigation fell into the lap of investigators the family would only be further torn apart by devastating secrets and betrayals.
