While settling into our new home, Jessica was unpacking and something on the TV captures her attention. It was a local news story and a familiar location that she vaguely recognizes and her interest is peaked immediately. After some digging and research, we are here to discuss the disappearance of Susan Powell.
When Susan Cox met Josh Powell in 2000, it was love! They married just after six months and would eventually have two wonderful boys. Life was great! But, was it?
We will take a journey into the life of Susan and Josh Powell and all the twist and turns of this ill fated marriage. We will discuss the circumstances surrounding Susan's disappearance from her home in Utah in 2009 and what Josh had to say about it. We'll look at what clues detectives had to work with and what they are still looking into to this day. Also, we'll go over how this has ties with Washington and why this heartbreaking story was recently back in local news.

After an odd interaction with a hotel clerk while checking into a hotel in Renton, Washington at 1 am in the morning, Brice first learned about the Green River Killer. Freaked out but curious, he would relay the story to his wife, Jessica. Little did he know his encounter that night would lead them to an abundance of true crime stories in the Pacific Northwest and fuel their idea to discuss them all on a podcast.
Now, over a year later, join the couple as they explore Washington's most prolific and deadliest serial killer. The Green River Killer. He was officially charged with 49 counts of murder but, has professed, that it was actually upwards of 70 women, most of them sex workers in the greater Seattle area. Buckle up as we discuss Gary Leon Ridgway, better known as the Green River Killer.
