If you never heard of Dennis DePue, you're lucky...he was an awful human. On April 15th, 1990 in Coldwater, Michigan, Dennis travels to the home of Marilynn, his ex-wife, to spend time with his kids. His kids refused to go with him which led to a violent argument leaving Marilynn unconscious. Dennis tells the kids he's taking Marilynn to the hospital and they never see them again. Take a listen and find out what happens to Dennis and how he was eventually captured. Fun fact, his case inspired the first scene in Jeepers Creepers and was featured on Unsolved Mysteries.
