Episode 237: Jessica Carpenter | On the Street Where You Live

When Jessica Carpenter was found murdered in her home on August 4, 2000 investigators searched for answers in what proved to be a very complicated case. As they did, rumors spread throughout the neighborhood, suspicions reached the people closest to the victim, and every lead seemed to raise more questions than it answered. The truth remained hidden behind an ordinary summer day and a series of moments that, at first glance, appeared completely unremarkable. What began as the murder of a 17-year-old girl would grow into a years-long mystery—one that challenged investigators, tested a grieving family, and proved that sometimes the most devastating crimes begin with something so routine that no one gives it a second thought.

Episode 236: Traci Todd | Missing in Chicago

On September 14, 2000, a concerned neighbor called 911 after hearing sounds of a violent fight in the apartment next door. Unable to gain entry after no one buzzed them into the building, responding officers eventually left, a decision they would later regret. What followed was the disappearance of a 34 year old flight attendant, a gruesome discovery, and a case that unraveled one shocking secret after another.   Sponsors: Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.
