This collection examines the murder of Amy Allwine in Cottage Grove, Minnesota, in November 2016, tracing how a staged suicide was unravelled into a premeditated killing by her husband, Stephen Allwine, a church elder and IT professional who had also tried to hire a hitman through a fraudulent dark web site and sent her anonymous threats. It reconstructs the crime scene, the toxicology and digital forensic evidence, the key investigators, researchers and relationships around the case, and the trial and appeals that upheld his sentence of life without release. Throughout, it distinguishes what the courts established from what prosecutors argued or later claimants asserted, and reflects on trust, deception, accountability, and the dignity owed to Amy and her son.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?

This compelling reflection examines the moral, ethical, and societal lessons emerging from the tragic murders of Joshua Ford and Martha Crutchley, exploring trust, loyalty, personal responsibility, and the devastating consequences of violence. It considers the complexities of the Sifrits’ convictions, the pursuit of justice, the resilience of victims’ families, and the enduring importance of truth and accountability. Beyond the crime itself, it offers a profound meditation on human choices, the limits of justice, and the responsibility to remember victims with dignity.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?

This collection of narration scripts examines the killings carried out by James Kraig Kahler on Thanksgiving weekend in 2009 at the Burlingame, Kansas home of Dorothy Wight, where his estranged wife Karen, their daughters Emily and Lauren, and Dorothy died while their nine year old son Sean escaped and later testified. The pieces trace the collapse of the marriage, the relationship between Karen and Sunny Reese, Kahler's job loss and depression, the first responder account, the Life Alert recording, and his 2011 capital murder conviction and death sentence, affirmed by the Kansas Supreme Court in 2018 and upheld against a constitutional challenge to Kansas insanity law by the United States Supreme Court in 2020. Throughout, they separate established findings from allegations and prosecution theories, correct common myths, note that a juror misconduct claim has been allowed to proceed to a hearing as of mid 2026, and draw lessons about responsibility, warning signs, mental illness, and respect for victims and survivors.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?

This collection of narration scripts recounts the case of Rebecca Koster, a twenty four year old home health aide from Medford, New York, who vanished after a night out on Long Island in December 2009 and was found burned beyond recognition on a rural Connecticut road, identified only through dental records. The pieces follow the false messages sent from her stolen phone to misdirect her family toward her boyfriend, the ferry crossing, the investigation into Evans Ganthier, who admitted concealing her body but denied killing her, and his 2013 second degree murder conviction. They also stress that a federal court vacated that conviction in August 2025 over the use of substitute medical examiner testimony, a ruling that is not an acquittal and remains under appeal, while separating established facts from disputed claims, myths, and unanswered questions such as motive, and drawing lessons about trust, digital deception, forensic evidence, and fair process.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?

This collection of narration scripts tells the story of Alexis Dekany, a single mother and criminal justice student at the University of Akron, and Eric Paull, her former professor and an Akron police sergeant who stalked, threatened, and assaulted her, then misused a state law enforcement database to track women in her life. The pieces trace the case from the first break-in attempts and the dismissive police responses through his arrest, guilty pleas to six felonies, a four year sentence, and early release after about a year, while carefully separating what the court record established from what remains her account, such as the unprosecuted rape allegation. Woven throughout are close examinations of the physical scenes, the people around her, the common myths that distort retellings, and the lessons about misplaced trust, institutional conflicts of interest, written evidence, and accountability.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?

This collection follows the 2009 murder of Rebecca Koster, a cheerful 24 year old home health aide from Medford, Long Island, from the bar encounter and the false text messages sent from her phone to her roadside discovery in Connecticut and the investigation across two states. It then traces the long legal aftermath, including the 2013 conviction of Evans Ganthier, the 2021 appellate affirmation, and the 2025 federal ruling that vacated the verdict over a Confrontation Clause error involving the autopsy evidence, with the state's appeal still pending. Woven through it are careful corrections of common misconceptions and reflective lessons on trust, grief, forensic work, fairness, and honoring the victim as a person rather than a plot point.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?

The document is a layered true crime study of two separate deaths that a Crime Watch Daily broadcast placed side by side: five year old Garnett Spears, whose mother Lacey Spears was convicted of depraved indifference murder after investigators found a lethal sodium level in his body, and twenty year old Brandon Ellingson, who drowned on the Lake of the Ozarks while handcuffed in the custody of Missouri trooper Anthony Piercy. It moves from a full chronological narration through close examinations of the hospital room, the apartment, the patrol boat and the inquest, then maps the web of relatives, witnesses, doctors, detectives, prosecutors, whistleblowers and officials who connected each case before and after the deaths, always marking where sources conflict or the record is silent. The closing sections correct common misconceptions and draw out lessons on institutional oversight, fragmented medical and child protection records, training, evidence preservation, and the difference between an allegation, a charge and a conviction, arguing that trust must always be paired with responsibility and verification.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?

The document opens with a Crime Watch Daily transcript covering three cases: Mark Berrios, sentenced to life in Florida for fatally shooting used car salesman Olen Lee Hepler at fifteen and now alleging repeated rape beforehand, a claim prosecutors doubt because it was never raised at trial; the unsolved murder of Selena Dalton and the disappearance of her infant daughter in Virginia; and Abby Honold's survival of a brutal assault and her advocacy for trauma informed police interviewing. It then expands into a long narrated script on the Berrios case, tracing his runaway years, his encounter with Hepler, the shooting, his arrest and the conflict between his early and later accounts, while carefully marking which claims come from court records, news reports or the family. The remainder examines the Tonya Craft prosecution, in which a Georgia kindergarten teacher was acquitted of twenty two child abuse charges, using that case to explore suggestive interviewing of young children, strained adult relationships, the gap between allegation and verdict, and the lasting personal, financial and familial costs of an uncertain truth.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/u-s-hidden-crimes--6962513/support.Got a tip or a case we should investigate?
