59: Back in Crime: The Sodder Children

If true crime is your thing, it's ours too. With a dash of Southern charm, Jenn and Lindsay crack open the most compelling cases within different series and topics including cruise ship deaths and disappearances, historical crimes, crimes committed by women, crimes that inspired movies, and so much more. With over 200 episodes there’s plenty to binge.

True crime

We're back from our break with a new series and a new multi part case!On Christmas Eve, 2002, Scott Peterson came home to find his pregnant wife Laci missing. She wasn't seen again until her body washed ashore months later, as did her unborn son. Suspicion fell on Scott right away, and he was eventually arrested, charged, and found guilty. But this case is anything but simple. In this episode, we talk about the high level details, what Scott says happened that day, and what investigators found out happened that day. And this is just the beginning.o access earlier episodes of Corpus Delicti and to help support the show, please visit patreon.com/corpusdelictiOur merch store can be found at teepublic.com/stores/corpus-delicti-podcastMusic by:Kai Engel "Daemones"This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
