This week we are finishing up the lower 48 in Maine! Maggie tried recording in a different location on a different mic and the audio is not our best, apologies.

Amber then tells us about Thayne Ornsby who brutally murdered 3 people and no one really knows why.

Maggie starts us off with the story of Dana Martin, a murderer and rapist who plotted more heinous crimes from prison.

Episode 46 - Massachusetts

This week we are in Massachusetts! We throw some tea in the harbor and witch it up in Salem and then we explore some crimes.

Amber starts us off with the story of the Murder in Room 406. It's an old timey case and the man imprisoned for the crime was tried solely on circumstantial evidence. Was it enough?

Then Maggie tells the (probably well known) story of Daniel LaPlante. This story is crazy and takes a very sinister turn.
