Jason discusses the use of cadaver dogs in searching for bodies surrounding open cases and uncovers the case of Sandra Anderson, a renowned dog handler who trained cadaver dogs, particularly her dog Eagle. They gained national recognition for their work in locating human remains. However, it was later discovered that Anderson had been planting evidence at crime scenes, including bones and other items, to make it seem like Eagle had made the discoveries. This led to her arrest and conviction on charges of evidence tampering, obstruction of justice, and lying to investigators.

Sean gives an update on the Slenderman case.

The Station nightclub fire, during a 2003 Great White concert, killed 100 people and injured 230. The fire was started by pyrotechnics igniting flammable acoustic foam in the walls and ceiling. The club was overcrowded, with 462 people in a venue with a capacity of 404. The fire spread rapidly due to the lack of sprinklers and a series of other terrible circumstances, including fire alarms that weren't connected to the fire department, blocked exits, and a delayed response.

In the aftermath of the tragedy, multiple parties were held responsible. Club owners Jeffrey and Michael Derderian were charged with 200 counts of involuntary manslaughter, while band tour manager Daniel Biechele faced the same charges for setting off the fireworks. Biechele received a four-year prison sentence, and the Derderians each received suspended sentences and probation.

The Station fire led to significant changes in fire safety regulations, including stricter fire codes and a ban on pyrotechnics in certain venues. The tragedy also resulted in numerous lawsuits and settlements, with victims and families receiving $176 million in compensation. A permanent memorial was built at the fire site, and the Station Education Fund was launched to support children who lost parents in the fire.

Listener Discretion Advised.

Colleen Stan was kidnapped in 1977 by Cameron and Janice Hooker and held captive for seven years. During her captivity, she was subjected to extreme physical and sexual abuse, including being confined to a box for long periods. Cameron manipulated Colleen into believing that she was a slave and that an underground organization called "the Company" would harm her and her family if she tried to escape. He forced her to sign a "slavery contract" and subjected her to brutal punishments.

In 1984, Janice, consumed by guilt, confessed the truth to Colleen and helped her escape. Colleen returned home to her family and eventually revealed the details of her ordeal. Cameron was arrested and charged with multiple crimes, including kidnapping and rape. He was found guilty and sentenced to a lengthy prison term. Despite the immense trauma she endured, Colleen survived and has shared her story to raise awareness about the horrors of human trafficking and abuse.

In 1989, a man named Alexi Indris-Santana was accepted to the prestigious Princeton University based on not only his intellect but also his incredible back-story of being a self-educated ranch hand with a 1410 SAT score. The school was so taken with Santana, that they agreed to defer his enrollment one year so that he could care for his sick mother. 

The catch? – the man wasn’t caring for anyone; he was in prison. And his name was not Alexi Santana. It was James Arthur Hogue, a master conman who had fooled even the brightest minds at Princeton. It would be years before anyone there knew Hogue’s real identity, and his past full of lies and deception was unraveled – even then it was all by chance.
