In the late 1980s, New Castle County, Delaware’s residents came face-to-face with evil when someone began murdering women in their small county. Authorities quickly realized they were dealing with a serial killer. Local officers were aware they were ill-equipped to handle a massive hunt for a serial killer, so they created a task force and called in the FBI as backup. This task force worked tirelessly until the murderer was brought to justice. They utilized many tactics including a “decoy” operation, surveillance of a suspect, suspect profiling, and much more. Join Arielle and Amanda as they discuss the circumstances surrounding the heinous crimes of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

In 2018, 24-year-old Ralph Latrez Bell had so much going for him and so much to look forward to: a loving family, two little girls, a son on the way, as well as plans of furthering his education and eventually starting a business. Unfortunately, all of Ralph’s aspirations would come to a grinding halt when he disappeared from his Stillwater, Minnesota, apartment in late December 2018. Just one hour later, Ralph’s vehicle was found abandoned in a cul de sac in a neighboring town. Following his disappearance, Ralph’s family and friends spent an agonizing three months tirelessly searching for him but their efforts were unsuccessful until March 2019 when Ralph’s body was located just a mile from where his car was found. The medical examiner quickly ruled Ralph’s death a suicide; however, there are many indications that this wasn’t the case. In the almost 18 months since the discovery of Ralph’s body, Ralph’s family has fought for justice but have met many road blocks including: inconsistent witness stories, questionable police work, prematurely destroyed evidence, and an overall disregard for Ralph’s life.
Join Arielle and Amanda as they discuss the details of the mysterious disappearance and death of Ralph Bell as well as Ralph’s family’s continuing fight for justice.

In 1992, Linda Curry had everything she could have ever wanted: a great job, a magnificent house, and a new husband: her Prince Charming, Paul Curry. Not long after her wedding, Linda mysteriously became ill, resulting in a three week hospital stay. Despite their best efforts, doctors couldn’t determine what was wrong with her. After recuperating, Linda found herself in the hospital yet again, just six months later. One year after her first hospital stay, Linda, a once healthy woman, unexpectedly died. Although the coroner ruled her death a homicide, it would be nearly two decades before someone was held accountable for her murder. Join Amanda and Arielle as they sift through the details surrounding Linda Curry’s suspicious death.

In the early 1980s, the Keddie Resort located in Keddie, California, was the place to go for families and tourists alike. However, in April 1981 this small town was thrust into fear and terror when the Sharp family was torn apart by a brutal triple murder and kidnapping. The Sheriff’s Office of the small town was ill equipped to handle a case of such magnitude and several investigative mistakes were made along the way. However, many wonder if these investigative mistakes were due to lack of experience in murder investigations or related to a police cover up. Join Arielle and Amanda as they discuss this case and all of its twists and turns.

In the early 1990s, Sylvia Landry, a Madam operating in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, was found hanging in her jail cell soon after being convicted and sentenced on federal prostitution charges.
