Number 1: The Springfield Three Ep.2: A Broken Porch Light and A Pack of Cigarettes
Episode 2: We dig into the details of the girls’ graduation night—a night that was filled with excitement and promise, until it wasn’t. What exactly happened that night? We look at a timeline of events and talk to the friends who arrived at the house at 1717 Delmar Street; those who could possibly have found the one piece of evidence in the case. We speak with officer Rick Bookout, the first to arrive on the scene the next evening—and hear about the disturbing scenario that was found upon his arrival.

Number 2: The Springfield Three Ep.1: Graduation Night and the Disappearance of Stacy, Suzie, and Sherrill
Episode 1: On June 7 of 1992 three women went missing from a single-family home in the Missouri Ozarks. Stacy McCall and Suzie Streeter who, along with Suzie’s mother, Sherrill Levitt, completely vanished in the early hours of the girls’ graduation night. They’ve been missing ever since. At the scene, there is no trace of a body and there is no DNA. There is no noise or disturbance. The only thing that’s even slightly amiss is a broken porch light. So what happened? How could three women go to sleep and then suddenly vanish? Host Anne Roderique-Jones lays out the disappearance and paints a picture as to what it was like to grow up in Springfield, Missouri during the time of the disappearance. We sit down with family and friends of the women and members of law enforcement who worked this case nearly 30 years ago. Do you have information on the Springfield Three?

Number 3: The Springfield Three Ep.5: Serial Killers and Potential Suspects
In episode five of The Springfield Three, we look at some of the potential suspects that emerge in this case. We talk about Steve Garrison, who is serving 40 years in prison for raping, sodomizing, and terrorizing a female college student in Springfield, Missouri in the summer of 1993, just a year after the three women went missing. There’s Larry DeWayne Hall, a serial killer and Civil War buff who traveled to the area often. Also, Gerald Carnahan, who murdered beauty-queen Jackie Johns from Nixa, Missouri—just a few minutes outside of Springfield. And finally, there’s Robert Craig Cox, a convicted murderer who claims to know exactly where the three women are buried—but won’t reveal this until his own mother dies.

Number 4: The Springfield Three Ep.4: Grave Robbers, A Haunted Girl Scout Camp and Other Theories
In episode four of the Springfield Three, we start to delve into the leading theories that emerge. We’ll talk about a group of men who were arrested for stealing gold fillings out of corpses’ mouths in a local cemetery—one of whom was dating Suzie. We’ll talk about a boy who tells the haunting story of seeing the women in what locals called “The Girl Scout Camp.” It’s a story that would haunt him for the rest of his life. We’ll talk about the van—an infamous piece of information in this case. And we’ll talk about the theory that the women are buried underneath a parking lot, one that still continues to ripple throughout the town nearly 30 years later.

Number 5: The Springfield Three Ep.3: Hunting Through the Deep, Dark Ozark Woodlands
Episode 3: Who took Suzie, Sherrill, and Stacy—and more importantly, why? In this episode, we join the town as they dive into a desperate search, on foot and even horseback, through the deep and dark lakes of the Ozarks. We look to find an answer to the question: what could have happened between 2:15 AM on June 7th and 9AM the following morning? We look to the scene of the crime, and venture inside of the house on 1717 Delmar, in hopes to find our own answers. Do you have information on the Springfield Three?
