Ad Free: The Disappearance of Maura Murray Part 2
FAM!! In anticipation of our LIVE SHOW THIS SATURDAY (July 31st), we are rereleasing our episodes covering "The Disappearance of Maura Murray." Come see us cover this case LIVE on Saturday night at the Wilbur Theater in Boston where we will be joined by Maggie, Lance, and Tim (...and a surprise special guest) who are all featured in the doc! It's a completely different show than you're about to listen to AND WE CAN'T WAIT! GET YOUR TICKETS HERE!
It's the most famous--and most obsessed over--missing person's case of our time:
On February 9, 2004, Maura Murray, a promising young nursing student, left her college dorm, emptied her bank account, and drove to a remote New Hampshire town where she didn't know a soul. Just after 7pm, her car crashed into a tree. A witness spoke to her, offering help, which she refused. And then she vanished into thin air. Nobody has seen or heard from her since. Everybody has a theory: The family knows more than they're saying, the police botched the case and are covering it up, Maura fled her life and started over in Canada. This documentary series attempts to solve the mystery.

189: Scott Peterson: One Last Chance (ABC's 20/20)
It's been 18 years since Scott Peterson was convicted of killing his pregnant wife, Laci. In that time, some members of his family have been working tirelessly to prove his innocence--that he couldn't have killed Laci. Some of their evidence is compelling, but so much of Scott's story still doesn't make sense. But Scott's attorneys are certain that if he's granted a new trial--which seems more and more likely--they'll be able to prove beyond reasonable doubt that their client is innocent.

Class Action Park
During its 1980s and 1990s heyday, New Jersey’s Action Park earned a reputation as the most insane — and possibly the most dangerous — amusement park that ever existed. It was known as a lawless land, ruled by drunk teenage employees and frequented by even drunker teenage guests. The rides were experimental and illogical, and seemed to ignore even the most basic notions of physics or common sense—not to mention safety. And this documentary spills ALL. THAT. DRUNK. NEW. JERSEY. TEA!

So, Ok, remember Ma Anand Sheela from “Wild Wild Country?” She was Bagwan’s number 2, bus we all knew she was really the one running things in the Rajneesh Cult. Remember how she went a little bananas and tried to poison the entire town in Oregon where the cult was based and then she plotted to assassinate a Senator, and then went into hiding after leaving the cult. WELL GUESS WHAT, SHE’S GETTING HER OWN DOCUMENTARY! After 35 years, she’s headed back to India to promote her book. But she really doesn’t want to talk about the book or answer any questions AND GILLIAN IS NOT HERE FOR IT. Ugh, this is a doozy.

Can a building be evil? (Gillian: “NO, IT’S JUST A BUILDING!”). Can web sleuths solve a truly bizarre death? (Patrick: “NO! GET OFF FACEBOOK AND GO. OUT. SIDE.). And what exactly is a hotel general manager’s job? (Patrick and Gillian: (“UNCLEAR!”) Welcome to the Cecil Hotel—a once grand hotel which rotted from the inside and became a place where “dreams go to die” and “serial killers let their hair down.”
Elisa Lam knew none of that, of course, when she checked in on January 28, 2013. She went missing a few days later. And two weeks after that, out of desperation to find her, the LAPD released the now infamous “elevator video” of her which set the internet ablaze. Join us and the investigators and internet…sleuths?...as we all try to put together the pieces of her disappearance and death. And I promise, we land on an answer as to what happened to her.

Host Maggie Freleng and her team of investigators--including Jason Baldwin of the West Memphis Three--are on the ground in Alliance tracking down witnesses, finding new evidence, and reporting in REAL TIME as they track down the real.

174: Who Killed the Coed?
The murder was so brutal—so violent—that detectives on the scene remarked that they’d never seen anything like it.
On the morning of September 7, 2012 Faith Hedgepeth’s roommate Karena Rosario found her dead in her bed in the apartment they shared near their college, UNC Chapel Hill. She’d been brutally beaten over the head with a liquor bottle and left to die. Nothing made sense. Faith was beloved at her school. Who would want her dead? Was this a random act of violence? Or, as police would quickly wonder, was it revenge?

173: The Beatrice Six: Keith Morrison Investigates
1 murder. 6 convictions. But did any of them do it?
Sometime after midnight on February 6, 1985, 68-year-old Helen Wilson was raped and brutally murdered in her small apartment in downtown Beatrice, Nebraska. In an era before DNA testing, all investigators had to go on was the fact that the killer had a very rare genetic marker in his blood type. But there were no other viable clues. But four years after the crime, arrests started being made, one after another—six in total. And though they all claimed to have had nothing to do with the crime—and none of them had the rare genetic marker—they were all convicted. But when DNA evidence eventually exonerates them, the real killer is found out.

163: BTK: A Killer Among Us
From 1974 – 1971, a serial killer tormented the people of Kansas. He called himself BTK, which stood for BIND, TORTURE, KILL. He wanted to incite fear and panic, and so his killings were especially brutal. He taunted police with postcards, letters, and voice messages, but no matter how many clues the madman gave them, they still couldn’t catch him. But then, in 2005, after 10 murders and more three decades of terrorizing the locals, they got him. And suddenly it was clear how he’d managed to hide in plain sight for so long.

Unsolved Mysteries Ep 11: The Lady in the Lake
FAM!!! THIS ONE WAS DIRECTED BY OUR FRIEND SKYE BORGMAN (Director of "Abducted in Plain Sight" and Patrick's colaberator on the podcat "Obsessed With: Abducted in Plain Sight).
On the night of January 12, 2010, JoAnn Matouk Romain vanished from the parking lot of her church after an evening prayer service. The police on the scene were convinced she'd walked across the 4 lane highway behind the church, walked into a lake, and killed herself. But this explanation never made sense to her adult children. Her body was found 70 days later, 35 miles downriver--a development that screamed foul play to the family. Suddenly stories emerge about JoAnn not feeling safe in the days before she disappeared as a team of private investigators, police, and family members try to figure out what happened.

On the afternoon of November 24, 1971 a man using the name Dan Cooper boarded a passenger flight at Portland international airport, and hijacked the plane.

160: The Trials of Ted Haggard
It's a weird one, you guys, but I really think it's one of our best episodes yet:
Ted Haggard was living the life. As the founder and head, like, Pastor (?) of the New Life Church, Haggard was one of the most rich, famous, influential Evangelicals in America. He, his wife Gayle, and their two kids had it all.
And then Ted Haggard got busted buying Crystal Meth from and paying for sex with a gay male sex worker. WHOOPS! Haggard, who quickly "admitted" he'd been "struggling with this sexual problem" all his life was quickly ex-communicated from the church and his family was BANISHED--YES, BANISHED--from the state of Colorado. In this film, documentarian Alexandra Pelosi (name sound familiar, yeah, Nancy is her mom) basically follows Haggard around while he tries to pick up the pieces of his life.

159: Missing 411
On July 10, 2015, two-year-old DeOrr Kunz vanished while on a camping trip with his young parents. The circumstances were...bizarre to say the least. The family was in the middle of the woods, miles from the nearest road. Little DeOrr had been walking with his parents, then turned to walk the 100 or so feet back to his grandfather. It was broad daylight. And in the split second that nobody was looking at the boy, he vanished, No trace of him was ever found. The case sounds odd until you discover that there are hundreds of cases just like this one, with many of the same circumstances. That's right, over the last 50 years, hundreds of people--many of them children--have vanished in broad daylight from campsites and national forests all over the country. Missing 411 tries to figure out what the hell is happening.
