  • 346. Charmed: Margie's Story

    346. Charmed: Margie's Story
    Feb 11 2026
    In the middle of a spring night in 1988, Margie slipped from her bed, which she shared with her husband, and slowly crept into the other room where he kept his briefcase with all his important documents. There was no doubt that her husband’s behavior had changed since their wedding day just seven weeks ago. Some things that he said just didn’t make sense. Things didn’t line up. His temper was shorter, and his intensity was stronger. And sometimes she just felt overwhelmingly afraid of him. She retrieved his briefcase from the closet and realized that he’d locked it. Luckily, she’d been paying attention and remembered the combination. The briefcase popped open, and she slowly took each document out and photographed it, all the while listening for him to wake up. Then she put each document back in the briefcase and returned the numbers to their exact locations. Maybe this was all part of that witness relocation program that he’d told her about? But what if it wasn’t? Join Jen & Cam as they discuss "Charmed: Margie's Story." Thank you, Samantha S, for the request! Promo by our friends Neil and Megan of Mortal Musings.

    345. Targeted: The Killing of James Craig Anderson
    Feb 4 2026
    For much of the twentieth century, Mississippi was a place where racial violence was not merely ignored but actively erased. Witnesses stayed silent. Juries looked away. It was just a different time, they say. James Craig Anderson’s murder did not happen in 1955. It happened in 2011. This time, the cameras were watching. This time, the federal government stepped in. This time, the perpetrators pleaded guilty. Progress would be measured not in apologies or promises, but in prison sentences. And unlike so many before him, Anderson’s killers were not celebrated, excused, or folded gently into historical amnesia. They were named. They were tried. They were sentenced. Dragged into the light, they could not escape what they had done.

    344. Trusting Evil: The Murder of Sarah Everard
    Jan 28 2026
    In March 2021, Sarah Everard left a friend’s house in London and started walking home. It was a normal evening, the kind of walk most people do without thinking twice. But when she didn’t return, her family and friends became worried. They called her, searched the area, and waited for news. As the hours turned into days, the story spread beyond her friends and family. The case became a national headline, and the worry turned into fear. What began as a missing-person investigation soon felt much more serious. Then the investigation took a turn that surprised many people. What seemed like a simple disappearance became something far more disturbing, and the impact reached far beyond one woman’s life. What happened to Sarah Everard raised serious questions about women’s safety, and about how much we can trust the people who are meant to protect us. It became a case that shook the country.

  • Unsolved: Bill & Peggy Stephenson with Melissa From Just the Tip-Sters

    Unsolved: Bill & Peggy Stephenson with Melissa From Just the Tip-Sters
    Jan 26 2026
    In this month's special, Melissa from Just The Tip-Sters shares a case close to her heart with Cam & Jen. It's a head-scratcher. In May 2011, Bill and Peggy Stephenson, a kind, generous, and deeply loved couple from Florence, Kentucky, were brutally murdered inside their own home. Both were 74 years old. Their deaths sent shockwaves through Northern Kentucky and left family, friends, and an entire community searching for answers. More than a decade later, this horrific double homicide remains unsolved. There was no obvious motive, no clear suspects, and no explanation that made sense. Even seasoned detectives and the FBI have described the case as complex, haunting, and deeply baffling. The Boone County Sheriff’s Department continues to pursue leads and believes that more than one person may have information about what happened that night. Investigators have vowed to leave no stone unturned, but they still need public help. If you have any information, no matter how small it may seem, please get in touch with law enforcement. Boone County Sheriff’s Department Phone: 859-334-8496 Toll-Free Tip Line: 844-210-1111 Email: stephensontip@boonecountyky.org If you know anything about the murders of Bill and Peggy Stephenson, please speak up. One detail could be the key to ending this long nightmare and bringing justice to a family that has waited far too long. You can also send your tips to Melissa Phone: 832-842-7837 Email: jttipsters@gmail.com Make sure you follow Melissa's podcast Just the Tip-Sters. We know you'll love it.

    343. Dardeen Family Massacre
    Jan 21 2026
    In the quiet, unassuming town of Ina, Illinois—where life moved slowly and danger felt distant—Keith and Elaine Dardeen were building a modest, faith-centered future with their young son, Peter, and a baby on the way. Their trailer sat tucked into the woods near the highway, close enough to hear passing traffic yet isolated enough to disappear into the darkness. When Keith failed to report for his night shift on November 18, 1987, concern quickly turned to dread as calls to the home went unanswered. What investigators would soon discover was beyond comprehension: the entire family had been brutally massacred.

    342. Just the Tip of the Iceberg: Wayne Adam Ford
    Jan 14 2026
    In November 1998, Wayne Ford was troubled and scared. He called his brother Rodney and said he had “hurt some people.” Rodney could hear the worry in his voice, so he drove six hours through the night to be with him. When he arrived, Wayne was upset and emotional. The next day, the brothers tried to have a normal day. They visited places from their childhood in Humboldt County, had breakfast together, drove past streets they knew, and even went to the zoo. But all day, there was a quiet tension between them, as if they both knew something big was coming. That evening, Wayne finally went to the sheriff’s office and made a confession. Then, looking at the officers, Wayne said, “That’s just the tip of the iceberg.” Join Cam and Jen as they discuss "Just the Tip of the Iceberg: Wayne Adam Ford.

    341. Missoula Mauler: Wayne Nance
    Jan 7 2026
    It was supposed to be an ordinary night in a quiet Missoula neighborhood, the kind where doors stayed unlocked because nothing bad ever happened. But just after 10 p.m., Doug and Kris Wells pulled into their driveway and found something that didn’t belong: a pickup truck abandoned on their lawn and a man slumped inside. What followed wasn’t a burglary gone wrong. It wasn’t a random act of violence. It was the moment a hidden obsession finally broke loose. Within minutes, a familiar face stepped out of the darkness. A coworker. A trusted local. A man who had been watching Kris for months. What began as small talk turned into a brutal ambush, a home invasion, and a fight for survival. Bound, beaten, and bleeding, Doug Wells would make one impossible decision and unknowingly come face to face with one of Montana’s most elusive killers. Because the man in their home wasn’t just a stalker, he was a predator tied to years of unsolved murders.
