Descripción

On April 23, 2015, Indiana University senior Hannah Wilson walked out into the electric chaos of Little 500 week, just days from graduation. She was a psychology major with a future wide open in front of her. By the next morning, she would be found miles away in rural Brown County, and the campus would be thrust into one of the most shocking crimes in IU’s history. This episode unravels Hannah’s final hours, the moment her friends put her in a cab to get her home safely, and the chilling reality that she never made it inside her front door. We follow the investigation as detectives trace a single cell phone left near her body—an overlooked detail that would expose a violent repeat offender and lead to an 80‑year sentence.

Donald Gene Miller | The East Lansing Serial Killer

He was the soft‑spoken youth minister everyone trusted. The individual who blended into life so seamlessly that no one imagined the danger he posed. But behind the polite smile and church‑raised charm, Donald Gene Miller was committing some of the most chilling crimes in East Lansing’s history. This episode unravels the double life of the man later known as the East Lansing Serial Killer. He was a predator who hid in plain sight. We walk through the murders of Martha Sue Young, Marita Choquette, Wendy Bush, and Kristine Stuart, the brutal attack on Lisa and Randy Gilbert that finally exposed him, and the shocking plea deal that still sparks outrage decades later. Through a detailed timeline, survivor testimony, and a close look at institutional blind spots, we examine how Miller’s “boy‑next‑door” persona shielded him from scrutiny and allowed his violence to escalate unchecked. This is a story about trust, denial, and the catastrophic cost of believing that danger always looks like a monster. Sometimes, it looks like the person everyone thinks they can rely on.
