Murder, Mysteries and Conspiracies with Glenn P Clinger III

A quiet mountain town. A family searching for a fresh start. Then, in the early morning hours of April 12, 1981, Cabin 28 became the scene of one of America's most chilling unsolved murder cases.

In Part One, Glenn P. Clinger III takes you inside the events leading up to the murders, the horrifying discovery that shocked the small community of Keddie, California, and the mysterious disappearance of 12-year-old Tina Sharp. As investigators begin piecing together the evidence, they quickly realize this was no ordinary crime.

More than four decades later, the questions remain.

Who entered Cabin 28 that night?

Why were three children spared?

And where was Tina?

Join us as we reopen one of the most haunting cold cases in American history.

You be the jury.

A quiet Texas church. A fitness instructor preparing for an early morning class. A mysterious figure dressed in police-style tactical gear wandering the halls before dawn. Minutes later, 45-year-old Missy Bevers was found murdered, and nearly a decade later, her killer has never been identified.

In this gripping episode of Murders, Mysteries, and Conspiracies, host Glenn P. Clinger III examines the documented timeline, the haunting surveillance footage, the official investigation, and the leading theories surrounding one of America's most baffling unsolved murder cases. Was Missy specifically targeted? Was the tactical gear part of an elaborate disguise? Or is there another explanation hidden within the evidence?

This episode separates fact from speculation and invites you to examine the evidence for yourself.

After a long shift in the emergency room, nurse Susan Kuhnhausen returned home expecting a quiet evening. Instead, she walked into a nightmare. An intruder was waiting in the darkness with one mission—to kill her. What happened next stunned investigators and unraveled an alleged murder-for-hire plot that led back to someone she once trusted most.

In this episode of Murders, Mysteries & Conspiracies, we examine the incredible true story of survival, betrayal, and greed. Was money worth a human life? Join us as we uncover the evidence, the investigation, and the shocking events that turned an intended victim into an unlikely survivor.

In 1961, Michael Rockefeller—heir to one of the most powerful families in America—vanished along the remote coast of Dutch New Guinea while on an anthropological expedition among the Asmat people. What began as a mission to collect and preserve indigenous art for the Museum of Primitive Art in New York quickly turned into one of the most haunting disappearances of the 20th century.

In this episode of Murders, Mysteries, and Conspiracies, we follow Rockefeller’s final journey into one of the most isolated regions on Earth: the overturned boat, the decision to swim for shore, and the moment he disappeared into open water—never to be seen again.

Was it a tragic drowning in unforgiving currents? Did he survive the swim only to face the dangers of an unknown coastline? Or did local conflict and unverified accounts hide a far darker ending beneath decades of rumor and speculation?

We examine the official search efforts, the competing theories, and the controversial testimonies that continue to fuel debate more than 60 years later.

No body was ever recovered. No definitive answer was ever confirmed.

This is the story of Michael Rockefeller.

And the mystery that refuses to die.

In the brutal chaos of Iwo Jima, where volcanic ash swallowed footsteps and fortified bunkers turned every yard of ground into a killing field, one Marine stepped forward when others could not.

Hershel “Woody” Williams was a young demolition sergeant from West Virginia—quiet, unassuming, and almost forgotten by history until one day in February 1945 changed everything.

In this episode of Heroes of World War II, we tell the story of how Williams volunteered to take on heavily fortified Japanese positions armed with a flamethrower and demolition charges, advancing again and again under relentless enemy fire. For hours, he fought alone in open terrain, reducing enemy strongpoints that had stalled the American advance and saving countless Marines in the process.

But this is more than a battlefield story. It is also the story of what came after: a man who never sought fame, who carried the memory of those lost at Iwo Jima for the rest of his life, and who dedicated decades to honoring fallen service members and supporting Gold Star families across the United States.

From the sands of Iwo Jima to the halls of the White House, Woody Williams’ legacy is one of courage, humility, and lifelong service.

This is the story of the Marine who walked into hell—and never forgot those who didn’t make it back.

In this episode of Heroes of the American Revolution, we explore the extraordinary life of John Laurens—one of the Revolution's bravest yet most overlooked heroes. A trusted aide to George Washington, close friend of Alexander Hamilton, and fearless battlefield commander, Laurens believed that the promise of liberty should extend to everyone. Long before abolition became a national movement, he advocated for enslaved men to earn their freedom through military service. Join us as we uncover the inspiring story of a young patriot whose courage, conviction, and sacrifice helped shape the birth of a nation.

One of the most powerful men in America was found dead beneath a sixteenth-floor window.

The official verdict was suicide.

But decades later, questions still remain.

James Forrestal was America's first Secretary of Defense, a key architect of U.S. military strategy during the early Cold War, and a man with access to some of the nation's most closely guarded secrets.

Was Forrestal a brilliant leader suffering from exhaustion and depression?

Was there a government cover-up?

Or did someone want him silenced?

In this special episode of Murders, Mysteries, and Conspiracies, we examine the evidence, explore the competing theories, and put you in the jury box to decide what really happened on that May night in 1949.

Listen now and decide for yourself:

Suicide.
Cover-Up.
Or Murder.

For nearly two decades, a brutal killer remained hidden in plain sight.

In Part 1, we explored the shocking murders of Tricia Pacaccio, Ashley Ellerin, and Maria Bruno—victims connected by a trail of violence that baffled investigators for years.

Now, in Part 2, the hunt for the Hollywood Ripper reaches its dramatic conclusion.

When one intended victim survives a vicious attack and fights back, she leaves investigators with the one thing they've been missing all along: DNA.

Join Glenn as he follows the forensic evidence that led detectives to Michael Gargiulo, examines Ashton Kutcher's courtroom testimony, breaks down the prosecution's case, and explores the verdict that finally brought justice to victims' families.

But even after the conviction, troubling questions remain.

Were all of the Hollywood Ripper's victims ever identified?

How many years did he spend stalking women without detection?

And could there still be crimes connected to the case that investigators have yet to uncover?

The DNA told a story.

The jury delivered a verdict.

But the mystery may not be completely solved.

If you haven't listened yet, start with Part 1: "The Hollywood Ripper: The Killer Next Door."
