    • Ellen Greenberg

      On a cold and snowy day in January 2011, Ellen Greenberg was found stabbed to death in her Philadelphia apartment. Yet the cause of death is declared a suicide? This case has been shut and closed in the investigators eyes for more than 10 years, while her parents have fought to re-open the case all this time. Today, we talk about the insane details of this case and why it's so mind-blowing that this is declared a suicide.

      • Rabbi Morris Adler
        In February of 1966, terrible events unfolded at the synagogue Sha’arey Zedek in Southfield, Michigan. Although not as widely known of a case, this had a lasting impact on the community and the members of this synagogue. This does heavily focus on issues involving mental illness and is a very heavy case to tell but we felt it was our obligation to tell this story to others.

        In 2014, Robert Haney's family reported him missing after not hearing from him for several months. The investigation into this missing person lead the police to question and meet Robert's former employer, Susan Monica, who turned out to be quite a wild card.
