In this episode of the Crack House Chronicles, Donnie and Dale discuss the murder of Marleen Warren. On Saturday May 26, 1990, Marlene was finishing breakfast with her son and his friends when she heard a knock on their front door. Marleen wasn't expecting anyone but answered the door anyway. She was greeted by someone wearing a clown costume and white face paint, clutching a flower arrangement and foil balloons. She was delighted at the cheerful sight. Then, suddenly, everything changed. Moments later the clown pulled out a gun, aimed it at her face, and pulled the trigger.

In this episode of the Crack House Chronicles, Donnie and Dale discuss the shocking murder of Candace Hiltz. Candace was a seventeen year old single mother, a junior at Brigham Young University and a newly accepted student to be at Stanford Law School. She dreamed of becoming a Supreme Court Justice. The investigation was shoddy from the beginning: The crime scene wasn't protected and sealed, evidence was left behind and the prime suspect was Candace's brother, James. After he was apprehended, he was charged with for breaking into a home and stealing some items, but not the murder of his sister. Over the next ten years, no new leads were developed nor evidence discovered. The Hiltz family and the Fremont County Sheriff's Department engaged in a rather public exchange of contradictory statements. Candace's autopsy showed she had been shot by two to three different weapons and at least two assailants as several shots were projected into her front and back simultaneously.
