  • Locked Grease Pencil: The Card That Tied Two Murders Together

    Locked Grease Pencil: The Card That Tied Two Murders Together
    Oct 8 2026
    Locked Grease Pencil: The Card That Tied Two Murders Together

    The sight of a laminated index card clenched in a dead man's fist-marked "STAND BY - LIVE" in black grease pencil-linked a radio station boss to a string of violence across two bodies and years of unnoticed theft. How did a routine station cue card, a drift pin wrapped in a shop rag, and missing equipment invoices point investigators to a single technician?

    In this episode, we tell what happened inside WKRL on the night of March 10 and how the discovery beneath Transmitter Building B unfolded into a case that connected two murders and missing parts; what role did a transmitter technician's access play in the crimes?

    Person: Dale Young
    Date: March 11, 1934 (body found)
    Location: Transmitter Building B crawl space, Dunbar Falls, Nebraska
    Person: Steven Williams
    Person: Frank Odell

    - Dale Young was 54 years old and had run WKRL for nine years.
    - The index card found in Young's left fist read "STAND BY - LIVE" in black grease pencil.
    - Steven Williams was 29 years old and had worked as a transmitter technician for eight months.
    - The station log showed a four-minute unrecorded window during Frank Odell's transmitter check at approximately 9:50 p.m.
    - Sheriff Dennis Bennett opened the satchel containing an iron drift pin on March 24, 1934, and its dimensions matched the wound at the base of Young's skull.

  • The Second Stamp: Why Laura Burke's Passport Returned After Death

    The Second Stamp: Why Laura Burke's Passport Returned After Death
    Oct 7 2026
    The Second Stamp: Why Laura Burke's Passport Returned After Death

    A passport was stamped twice at the same border station, three hours and eleven minutes apart-even though Laura Burke had crossed once at 9:47 a.m. and was already dead when the second stamp was applied. The second violet stamp, a surrendered passport policy, a missing cosmetics case later found eleven miles away, and a body deliberately concealed raise one central question: who planned to use Laura Burke’s identity, and why was her document returned to her corpse?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline and the physical evidence found by investigator Kelly Hayes as she pieces together the movements, objects, and records connected to Laura Burke’s death. What Hayes uncovers about the passport stamp, the cosmetics case, and the photographed strip forces us to ask how identity became worth more than a life.

    Person: Laura Burke
    Date: February 9, 1944
    Location: Drover's Notch border station
    Status: Deceased (manual strangulation)
    Investigator: Kelly Hayes

    - Passport crossed Drover's Notch at 9:47 a.m. and again at 1:02 p.m., stamps three hours and eleven minutes apart.
    - Body of Laura Burke found February 11 face-down between annex wall and equipment locker with a canvas tarp laid over her.
    - Purse on body contained $11 and an untouched ration coupon book; passport was in inner breast pocket, pressed flat.
    - Declared at 9:47 crossing: a tan leather cosmetics case with brass clasp and initials "L.B."; the case was missing from the body.
    - Cosmetics case recovered February 16 at Emmett bus depot’s lost-property bin, containing a half-used coral lipstick, folded handkerchief, and an uncut strip of passport photos noting a five-and-dime booth and an El Paso studio.

  • Ring of the Rail Spur: Why Heather's Gold Seal Killed Her

    Ring of the Rail Spur: Why Heather's Gold Seal Killed Her
    Oct 6 2026
    Ring of the Rail Spur: Why Heather's Gold Seal Killed Her

    A gold signet ring found on a bare hand in nine-degree January light tied a woman’s death to a land scheme that had been plotted months earlier; the ring’s reversed R was not jewelry but a recorded receipt that transferred her property without her informed consent. How did a ring made by a local silversmith become the hinge between a staged transaction and Heather Underwood’s body four blocks from home?

    In this episode, we tell the sequence of events from the evening Heather left choir practice to the discovery of her body and the filings that followed, laying out who knew what and when. What exactly did that signet ring represent on paper, and why did it make murder look like ledger work?

    Person: Heather Underwood
    Date: January 9, 1883 (body found)
    Location: Setter Creek, Barlow Flats
    Person: Craig Farrell
    Event: Farrell-Kessler Grazing Company brand registration filed December 29, 1882

    - Heather Underwood was thirty-eight and had been a widow since summer 1881.
    - Heather walked four blocks home from choir practice on January 7, 1883, and did not arrive.
    - Curtis Hansen’s pointer dog first locked on frozen mud forty feet south of the sandstone outcropping before finding the body.
    - Craig Farrell, age thirty-one, commissioned a gold signet ring with a reversed capital R in November 1882 from silversmith Art Noonan.
    - Farrell filed an affidavit on December 29, 1882 claiming Heather’s two sections of grassland were unencumbered, with Margaret Kessler named as co-partner.
