In the second installment of this tragic case, we learn a bit more about our suspect, Sedley Alley, the investigation and his troubling history. Suzanne was appropriately honored and laid to rest with full military honors in Arlington, VA.

Jack and Trudy Collins adored their two adopted children: supportive and comforting Stephen and his beautiful, bold and bubbly sister, Suzanne. A proud and determined Marine who had an amazing career in front of her. Unfortunately, the Marines would never get to see just how far she could go since just hours before her graduation, Suzanne went on a nighttime run and wasn't in her bed the next morning.

Ebby was an amazing young woman who had her whole life ahead of her, and was close with her family, despite a drive for independence and devastating experience. But in 2015 she disappeared, thus beginning an investigation so negligent it makes our blood boil. It's Sam's first solo case and it's a rough one. Still technically unsolved, hopefully one day there may be more answers...and there are definitely some plausible theories. We certainly have some ideas, maybe you'll agree.

Witches and black cats and poisoned candy, Oh MY!  In our spooky Halloween special, we hit a bit of a lighter note than usual, touching on some common myths and misconceptions about the holiday itself and some related topics, and even some urban legends that became a little more of a reality for one Texas family in the 70s.

In the conclusion to our lengthy saga of Sally's trek of doom across the country with the lascivious Frank La Salle, authorities finally nab the slimeball and we find out what happens to Sally in her young life post-rescue. It's a bit of a triumph with a devastating twist at the end.

Frank La Salle was a skeezy pedophile who never should have been able to even have the opportunity to kidnap Sally if only he weren't such a slippery slime ball. Sally and her "father" go on a cross-country journey that'll give you nauseating whiplash and land on the opposite side of the country. So buckle up for a wild ride, it won't be a smooth one, I promise.

Also, we want to apologize. The sound is a bit wonky in our intro and about the second half of the episode. We're still figuring out our best set up so bear with us.

Taking it back to the late 1940's, Camden, New Jersey was a great place to live and Ella Horner was working hard to support her beautiful young daughter Sally. Little did anyone know that in the summer of 1948, Sally would get on a bus headed straight for a mother's worst nightmare.
