History Colorado holds two Ku Klux Klan membership books for the Greater Denver area and beyond. The information inside them, which was collected for administrative purposes around 1924 through 1926, dates from the peak of the Klan's influence in Colorado. Together they have nearly 30,000 entries across more than 1,300 pages that record the names and other personal details, such as home and business addresses, of people affiliated with the KKK in metropolitan Denver and other areas. While the first 69 entries appear to be missing, the ledgers otherwise appear to be completely intact. -History Colorado

That's when the suspect told the 16-year-old's grandfather, "I wouldn't go in there if I was you. I killed someone. You may need to call the police."

The grandfather told investigators that it wasn't uncommon for the suspect to say "bizarre" things, Sheriff Judd said. According to authorities, the suspect has a history of using methamphetamine and has had psychotic episodes previously. 

Investigators said they arrested Stephan Thomas Rodda, 37, after he took off from the homicide scene and tried to leave Polk County.

From Slo Burn Media, Evergreen Podcasts & Killer Podcasts production comes episode #230 of Who Killed...?

In this week’s episode, we will be talking about the senseless murder of a teenager in Polk County Florida. I am highlighting this case because there was no need for this to occur and how callous these suspects are. 

Another reason I am covering this case is because the Sheriff of Polk County gives lengthy and sometimes controversial press conferences.

Last weekend we saw another mass shooting hate crime in Jacksonville, Florida. The three victims were Angela Michelle Carr, 52; Anolt Joseph “AJ” Laguerre Jr., 19; and Jarrald De’Shaun Gallion, 29.

These are becoming all too common as the insidiousness continues to spread on social media, cable news, and many, many other outlets. You had the Walmart murders in El Paso, where a Texas man killed 23 people and injured 22 more. Then, The Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh, where a 46-year-old truck driver shot and killed 11 people and wounded six Back to Florida where you had the Pulse Nightclub Shooting, in 2016. A gunman shot and killed 49 people and wounded 53 others at the gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida before police shot and killed him after a three-hour standoff.

In May 2022 an 18-year-old man killed 10 Black people at a Tops Friendly Markets grocery store in western New York. The gunman wrote a 180-page manifesto on racial purity before driving more than 240 miles (380 km) to Buffalo, a place where he expected to find Black people, police said.

While a few of these crimes I highlighted have occurred in Florida, the problem is everywhere.

Join me & host Justin Glanville as we dive into his latest podcast; Mary & Bill: An Ohio Cold Case.

In 1970, two university students who'd recently fallen in love were murdered in a Columbus apartment, in a crime so brutal it drew comparisons to the Manson murders of the previous year. Their names were Mary Petry and Bill Sproat, and the case has never been solved. In the new Ideastream Public Media true crime podcast "Mary & Bill: An Ohio Cold Case," reporter Justin Glanville, whose parents knew Bill Sproat, investigates the case alongside the victims' two sisters.
