  • BONUS: Polygraph Expert Critiques Colonial Parkway Murders Testing
    Nationally known polygraph examiner and private detective Lisa Ribacoff joins "Mind Over Murder" co-host Bill Thomas to discuss how the FBI used a polygraph exam to ID then suspect Alan Wade Wilmer Sr as one of the responsible parties for the 1988 disappearance of Keith Call and Cassandra Hailey in the Colonial Parkway Murders. Despite much corroborating evidence, Wilmer was dismissed on the basis of a polygraph exam. Now, confirmed serial killer Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. has been named as the murderer of Robin Edwards and David Knobling in the Colonial Parkway Murders in September 1987, as well as the murderer of Teresa Howell in Hampton, VA June 1989.
    Wilmer remains linked in the disappearance of Keith Call and Cassandra Hailey.

  • NEW: Virginia Unsolved Cases Reporter Courteney Stuart
    "Mind Over Murder" hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley discuss unsolved cases in Virginia with reporter and radio host Courteney Stuart of WINA Charlottesville.  Cases include the Colonial Parkway Murders, the Route 29 Stalker, and the Shenandoah National Park Murders of Julie Williams and Lollie Winans, followed by the the bizarre death of Darrell David Rice, a longtime suspect in the Shenandoah National Park murders.  Rice was exonerated after the FBI and National Park Service announced that Walter "Leo" Jackson had been linked to the Williams/Winans murder via DNA testing on June 20, only to be struck and killed by a car on a state highway in Missouri on July 5, 2024.    

    Weeks after DNA exoneration, Darrell Rice has died
