It was a January afternoon in 1981 when a man’s German Shepherd came upon a grisly discovery in the woods outside of Houston: the badly decomposed remains of a young man, beaten to death, and a woman, who was strangled. For 40 years, the victims were nameless – until late 2021, when a team of genetic genealogists identified the pair as 21-year-old Harold Dean Clouse and 17-year-old Tina Gail Clouse, a married couple who had moved from Florida to Texas with their infant daughter. But the discovery of the identities only deepened the mystery: who killed the couple and why? And where is their daughter, Holly, who would be 42 years old if alive today? 

In this multi-part true crime podcast, host Cristina Corbin travels across the country to interview law enforcement and family members, uncover new leads and speak exclusively with a religious cult at the center of this double murder mystery. The first reporter to obtain the entire police case file, including autopsy reports and crime scene photos, Corbin exposes stunning details that move this decades-old case forward.

Very compelling story

Really enjoying this podcast so far. I saw a brief story about it on tv and was glad to find this podcast w/ more info about the couple, their daughter, and this case. Sister Susan seemed very evasive w/ her re-telling of what she says happened with the car and Holly. She claims she never knew or interacted with this couple yet she has all this second hand information about them, a notary, the car, giving up of Holly, etc? I didn’t find her persuasive or compelling. She sounded like she was trying to lessen her culpability in whatever happened. I think she knows a lot more than she’s saying.

One where the host is overly dramatic and inserts herself constantly

I had to fast forward and then eventually gave up. Why did I do that? What was I thinking? Was my mind racing? Did I get awakened from a dead sleep to answer a call? If you enjoy that style of reporting, where the host is constantly taking her own temperature and hyping up the emotion in an already tragic event, then you will like this. You might also like the dramatic sound effects too. Blergh.

The voice!

Couldn’t get past the narration even though I was interested in the story 😬
