A marriage had ended, but the anger and obsession behind it had not. By the fall of 1995, one Bakersfield family was caught in an escalating cycle of jealousy, threats and violence—and a young girl would ultimately find herself caught in the middle.

On a hot August afternoon in 2000, the workday was winding down at a small family-owned business in southwest Bakersfield. Within hours, 31-year-old Brad St. Clair would be at the center of a murder investigation—one that, more than a quarter-century later, still holds an unanswered question.

Hey Notorious Bakersfield fans, 

I wanted to jump on here and explain why I haven’t released a new episode recently. A couple of weeks ago, a family member entered hospice care, and to say my focus hasn’t been on Notorious Bakersfield would be an understatement. Honestly, my head and heart just haven’t been in it. 

When the time feels appropriate, I’ll share another update regarding the future of the podcast. For now, my attention is where it needs to be — with my family member. 

Thank you to everyone who has reached out with concern and kind words. I truly appreciate your understanding, patience, and support.

~Robert~
