  • 331: Case 284: Widden Hill Farm
    May 18 2024
    *** Content warnings: Animal cruelty, gun violence ***

    43-year-old Graham Backhouse lived a peaceful life with his wife and children on Widden Hill Farm in Horton, England. But in 1984, a campaign of harassment directed at Graham left him fearing for his safety.

    When his wife Margaret Backhouse becomes the victim of a targeted attack, investigators consider who could have a motive to hurt the loving couple. The focus soon turns on a neighbour, Colyn Beadle-Taylor, but all is not what it seems.

  • Case 283: Kris Kremers & Lisanne Froon
    May 11 2024
    When Dutch friends Kris Kremers and Lisanne Froon set out for a six-week adventure in Panama in 2014, they were ready for the trip of a lifetime. But after failing to show up for a planned tour in the mountain town of Boquete, search parties sprung into action.

    Had the two young women gotten lost while hiking the popular Pianista trail, or was something more sinister at play?

  • Case 282: April Tinsley
    May 4 2024
    *** Content warnings: Child victim, sexual assault ***

    In 2004, several young girls around Fort Wayne, Indiana received handwritten letters threatening that they would be the next victim of a child killer.
    Authorities were immediately concerned. DNA from the letters matched samples they had stored from an unsolved crime that was committed more than a decade earlier – the murder of eight-year-old April Tinsley.

One of the best true crime podcasts out there

If you love true crime definitely check this out. Some of the the crimes committed rightly come with a warning. Not for the easily upset or for children etc. The narrative is pleasant and easy to listen to, it's my therapy for when I can't sleep. Some fantastic multi episodes such as the golden state killer and the zodiac killer are truly compulsive listening!

absolute favorite TC podcast

Every story is compelling, narrated beautifully and serves as a tribute to the victims rather than glorifying the killers.

Number 1 True Crime Podcast

I love this podcast, being a true crime fanatic there is no better then Casefiles. I’ve listen to every single episode.

Great in-depth, actually feels like your at the crime scene. The narrator is perfect, yes there is a few ads but they’re giving you this for free!

My only thing I would like to see is longer episodes i love it that much.

True Crime coverage at its best.

The most thoroughly researched true crime podcasts that I have listened to and I have listened and watched an obscene amount. The narrator is easy to listen to. These are stories of real people and obviously the effects of all the cases ripple through families and communities, people should be remembered and their stories told, it's the least anyone can do. The podcasts are always told in an empathic way and many are cases I haven't heard before which is good.

Advertisements from the start.

Didn't get past the first advert that was over a minute long. I'm going to guess that they're probably peppered throughout the 1 hour episode.
Not for me thanks; after all I pay a premium to audible each month.
I do not pay to sit through long advertisements on my commute.
