  • Episode 68: 20 Stab Wounds and Spinal Cord Damage- but Police Say It's Suicide?! The Ultimate Lock Door Mystery of Ellen Greenberg
    Sep 29 2024
    Lock Door Mystery. A 27 year old teacher found dead, inside her apartment, completely alone- with 20 stab wounds to her body. Stabs in the chest, back of her head, in her abdomen, brusies in various staging of healing all over her body, a huge gash on her head- but yet with very little, if any investigation the death was ruled a suicide. More than a decade later and the family of Ellen still has zero answers about what happened that January evening.

  • Episode 67: FBI cover up or Accidental Death? The Tragic Story of Kendrick Johnson
    Aug 2 2024
    DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE US A RATING AND REVIEW!Positional asphyxia. How common is this cause of death? Have you ever heard of it in a true crime case? Is it is possible that a 17 year old boy could die this way by crawling into a rolled up gym mat? OR is is possible that this is a story that is stemmed in racial injustice, lead by an FBI agent who covered up evidence and committed by two teenage boys that went to the same high school as this victim? Is this a case of police and government conspiracy to committ murder, or is this just a tragic story of an accidental death that no one could have predicted?
