Deborah "Debe" Atrops: If Anything Happens to Me | Beaverton, Oregon
In November 1988, Deborah "Debe" Atrops left a hair appointment in Tigard, Oregon and never came home. When she was found — what investigators discovered would haunt Washington County for decades.Debe was 30 years old. She was a mother to an eight-month-old daughter. She had told a friend: "If anything happens to me, Bob did it."It would take decades, a new cold case unit, and a trial that raised as many questions as it answered to bring this case into a courtroom.But the Washington County Sheriff's Office still lists her case as unsolved on their website. The conviction is under appeal. And the forensic evidence at the center of the trial has left observers, legal experts, and at least one investigative reporter wondering whether Washington County may find itself litigating this case again.Whether justice was served is something you'll have to decide for yourself.Visit our website!

Logan Schiendelman - I Hope to Survive This Week | Tumwater, WA
On May 20, 2016, multiple 911 calls reported a black Chrysler Sebring drifting across multiple lanes of Interstate 5 south of Tumwater, Washington — with no one at the wheel. When authorities searched the car, they found a wallet, phone, keys, cash, and curiously a bag of snacks still sitting upright in the center console. What they didn't find was 19-year-old Logan Schiendelman. Ten years later, no one knows what happened to him.The week he disappeared, Logan sent a text to a young woman he'd met on a dating app. It read: "I hope to survive this week." Those six haunting words are as unexplained as the disappearance that followed.In this episode we cover over ten years of questions in one of Thurston County's most baffling unsolved disappearances - a young man navigating identity, a cryptic message in the days prior, and a mystery that has never been resolved. The community gathered just this month to mark a decade without answers - but not without hope. If you have information about Logan's disappearance, contact the Thurston County Sheriff's Office at 360-786-5500. A $15,000 reward is available for information leading to his recovery.Visit our website! Find us on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Patreon, & more!

Lindsey Baum: Unsolved | McCleary, WA
On the evening of June 26, 2009, ten-year-old Lindsey Baum left a friend's house in McCleary, Washington for the short walk home, but she never arrived.McCleary is the kind of town where everyone knows each other - fewer than 2,000 residents, two dozen streets, one major employer. It was exactly the kind of place Melissa Baum thought was perfect for a fresh start with her two kids after relocating post-divorce from Tennessee. It felt safe. It felt quiet. And then it didn't.What followed was a massive, multi-agency investigation - hundreds of law enforcement personnel, dozens of FBI agents, more than forty individuals drawing the attention of investigators, and years of tips that went nowhere. The case has never been solved.In this episode we walk through everything the public record shows: the night Lindsey disappeared, the investigation, the persons of interest, and what investigators are still chasing today.If you have information about Lindsey's case, contact the Grays Harbor County Sheriff's Office at 360-964-1799 or submit a tip to the FBI at tips.fbi.gov. A $40,000 reward is available for information leading to an arrest and conviction.Visit our website! Find us on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Patreon, & more!

America’s Only Emperor: The Strange, True Story of Emperor Norton
What happens when a city decides kindness is better than cruelty?In this special crossover episode, we're teaming up with the wonderful folks over at Rainy Day Rabbit Holes to explore one of the strangest — and most unexpectedly heartwarming — stories in American history: Joshua Abraham Norton, the self-declared Emperor of the United States.Born into loss, shaped by fortune, and broken by ruin, Norton vanished into obscurity — only to reemerge in 1859 with a proclamation that probably should have ended badly. But San Francisco, being San Francisco, leaned in. What followed was a twenty-year "reign" that was equal parts absurd, poignant, and genuinely ahead of its time.We dig into the Gold Rush chaos that built the city around him, the imperial decrees that abolished Congress, the arrest that backfired spectacularly on the police department, and the man who stood up for immigrants and spoke out against racist violence decades before most people were willing to.And then there's the city itself — the restaurants that fed him, the tailors who clothed him, the crowds who saluted him in the street, and the thousands who came to mourn him when he was gone.Was Emperor Norton delusional? Satirical? Visionary? Honestly, the answer isn't as simple as any of those — and that's exactly what makes this rabbit hole worth falling down.Find more from Rainy Day Rabbit Holes at rainydayrabbitholes.comVisit our website!
