I’m Megan, your host, and each week I revisit unsolved cases from decades past, stories that have too often been forgotten or overlooked. Together, we examine the facts, question the myths of the “good old days,” and ask whether a simpler time was ever really a safer one.
This podcast honors the people at the heart of each case, focusing not on sensationalism, but on the lives affected and the justice still waiting to be served.

  • Trouble at Rocky Comfort Creek: The Mysterious Disappearance of Bill “Bo Peep” Farrer

    Trouble at Rocky Comfort Creek: The Mysterious Disappearance of Bill “Bo Peep” Farrer
    Sep 21 2026
    On Friday the 13th of September 2002, a Georgia man vanished without a trace. Bill Farrer’s vehicle and fishing supplies were found abandoned at a quiet creek where he often went fishing. At first, it seemed like Bill may have suffered some kind of accident and drowned. But after an extremely thorough search of the shallow creek turned up nothing, that explanation started to seem less likely.

    As the hours passed, Bill’s close-knit family started thinking back on some of the things that had happened in the years and months leading up to his disappearance. There were questions about whether Bill had stumbled into something he shouldn’t have, and just months earlier, he had been attacked by two men at that very same creek.

    Bill lived a pretty simple life, but there was a lot more going on beneath the surface. More than two decades later, his family is still trying to figure out what happened to him that Friday morning.

    TIPS: the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office at 478-625-7538 or Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s Thomson Regional Investigative Office at 706-595-2575, or submit a tip through the GBI tip line at 1-800-597-TIPS

  • The Secret Trip: The Unsolved Disappearance of Patricia "Patti" Adkins

    The Secret Trip: The Unsolved Disappearance of Patricia "Patti" Adkins
    Sep 14 2026
    In the summer of 2001, a woman clocks out of her shift at the Honda factory, eagerly anticipating a week away with her boyfriend. She had been telling her family about the trip for weeks and was so excited. They were going to spend some much-needed time together at a secluded cabin in Canada, and it would be the first time she and her boyfriend had been able to take a trip like this.

    Her family did not expect to hear from her throughout the week, but when she didn’t return to pick up her daughter, they knew something was wrong. Suddenly, the strange details she had shared about the trip beforehand took on a more sinister meaning. The more her loved ones looked into what she had told them, the more disturbing it became.

    This year marked 25 years without justice in her case, one where many people believe someone blatantly got away with murder.

  • Staten Island Serial Killer: The Unsolved Abduction of Ethel Atwell Part 2

    Staten Island Serial Killer: The Unsolved Abduction of Ethel Atwell Part 2
    Sep 6 2026
    Andre Rand once worked at Willowbrook and would eventually become one of Staten Island’s most notorious convicted criminals. In this second and final part of Ethel Atwell’s story, I look at Rand’s criminal history, the cases connected to his name and the crimes for which he was charged.Many believe Rand was a serial killer responsible for multiple disappearances and murders across Staten Island. But what actually connects him to Ethel Atwell and Shin Lee? Was Rand responsible for both women, or has the focus on him allowed another killer to remain hidden?
