  • BONUS: FBI Say No Funds Available for DNA Tests in Colonial Parkway Murders
    With FBI Norfolk informing that Colonial Parkway Murders families at a meeting on January 6, 2024, that they are short $300,000 in order to test DNA and other forensic evidence in the Colonial Parkway Murders, we thought we might revisit earlier discussion of the FBI testing budget available in the Parkway case. Given how many miillion dollars the FBI and Virginia State Police have spent on the Colonial Parkway Murders investigation, we are outraged that $300,000 stands in the way of proper forensic testing in this case. This Bonus episode of "Mind Over Murder" originally ran on October 17, 2022.

    FBI, Virginia State Police and the Hampton Police Department announced on January 8, 2024 that Alan Wade Wilmer Sr was confirmed as a serial killer of Robin Edwards and David Knobling in the Colonial Parkway Murders in September 1987, as well as the murderer of Teresa Howell in June 1989. He has also been linked to the April 1988 disappearance and likely murder of Keith Call and Cassandra Hailey, another pair in the Colonial Parkway Murders.

  • NEW: Author Blaine Pardoe Answers Colonial Parkway Murders Questions
    New York Times bestselling author Blaine Pardoe joins "Mind Over Murder" hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley to answer listener questions in the Colonial Parkway Murders case. Now that confirmed serial killer Alan Wade Wilmer Sr has been named in the 1987 rape/murder of Robin Edwards and David Knobling in the Colonial Parkway Murders as well as that of Teresa Howell in Hampton, VA in June 1989, where does the FBI and Virginia State Police investigation go from here? Does Wilmer being named "Suspect Number One" in the 1988 disappearance of Keith Call and Cassandra Hailey in the Colonial Parkway Murders mean that he is responsible for all four double homicides in the series? What about other unsolved murders? Join us for a fascinating conversation.
