On the evening of March 31, 2010, 31-year-old Jacob Cabinaw played a casual round of disc golf with a friend in Traverse City, dropped him off, and promised he was heading home to study. A National Guard member, mechanic, and father of two, Jacob had every reason to stay—he was actively saving to buy a home, loved his family, and was deeply rooted in his Northern Michigan community. He never made it back to Grawn.

Instead, what followed was a baffling, multi-state breadcrumb trail spanning over a thousand miles. Over the next 48 hours, security cameras, ATM withdrawals, and routine police encounters tracked Jacob’s silver Chevy Malibu on a relentless push south through Missouri, Arkansas, and deep into Texas—with virtually no money, no spare clothes, and no apparent reason for the journey. Then, near the Texas border, the trail went completely cold.

Was Jacob running toward something, fleeing someone, or caught in a situation far beyond his control? Join us as we piece together the final known movements, the unsettling surveillance details, and a shocking update years later that turned a baffling missing-person case on its head.

With school starting we didnt have time to put anything together. So heres a throwback from For The B-oo's podcast trye crime episode of Gerard John Shaefer. It was recorded in late 2024.

In 1972, a badge meant safety, authority, and protection. But along the desolate, sun-bleached stretches of Florida’s Hutchinson Island, Deputy Gerard John Schaefer was using his uniform for something far more sinister.When two teenage hitchhikers narrowly escaped a terrifying ordeal in the mangrove swamps, local authorities assumed they were dealing with a rogue officer who took a bad lesson too far. But the truth was infinitely darker.
Months later, the sudden disappearance of two more young women triggered a search warrant that led investigators straight into Schaefer’s personal belongings—uncovering a chilling collection of personal trophies, meticulous journals, and violent writings that blurred the line between horrifying fiction and unresolved reality.In this episode, we examine the shocking career of a man who operated under the cover of law enforcement, the crucial evidence recovered from his home, and the complex web of unanswered questions he left behind in prison. How many untold stories were hidden within his written pages, and how far did his trail truly reach?
Listen now to unravel the chilling story of law enforcement's dark side.

On a cold February evening in 2005, two devoted parents—34-year-old Danielle Imbo and 35-year-old Richard Petrone Jr.—walked out of a bustling bar on Philadelphia’s South Street, climbed into a black Dodge pickup truck, and vanished without a trace.
They didn't leave behind a single strand of physical evidence, a pinged cell phone, or a trace of the vehicle. For two decades, investigators and federal authorities have wrestled with one of the mid-Atlantic's most perplexing mysteries.

Neither Danielle nor Richard would ever willingly abandon their young children, leading law enforcement to a chilling conclusion: this was no random disappearance, but a deliberate, calculated crime. In this episode, we trace the final steps of that fateful night, peeling back the layers of a cold case filled with quiet dead ends, lingering suspicions, and a web of unanswered questions.

What really happened on the dark roads between Philadelphia and New Jersey—and how can two people and a two-ton truck simply disappear into thin air?

The ferocity of the attack suggested something deeply personal—but Pegg, a respected pillar of his tight-knit lakeside community, seemed to have no enemies. What the police uncovered next would shatter the town’s quiet facade. The trail didn't lead to a random home invasion, but straight into a dark, decades-old secret buried in the woods of Sussex County. In this episode, we explore a murder where the line between monster and victim is entirely blurred, and where a high-profile national trial miles away would unexpectedly trigger a deadly day of reckoning.
