Each episode reconstructs crimes from the past—cold cases, political scandals, infamous murders and forgotten conspiracies—using archival documents, trial records, and context that reveals how those events reshaped societies. Unlike sensationalist true crime, this show focuses on historical accuracy, clear timelines, and the social forces that allowed crimes to happen, so you understand not just who did it, but why it mattered.

New episodes drop Monday through Sunday at 4:00 AM, with concise deep-dives and multipart series when a case demands it. Expect episodes that blend narrative storytelling, primary-source analysis, and forensic perspective to make complex historical crimes accessible and compelling.

This podcast is for history-minded listeners, true crime fans who crave rigor over rumor, students of law and criminology, and anyone who wants to unpack how past crimes continue to influence the present.

Subscribe now to Crime History: Exposed and get a new episode at 4:00 AM every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday to follow the clues, the context, and the consequences.

  • The Upright Suitcase and the Clean Shoes: Who Placed Megan Holmes?

    The Upright Suitcase and the Clean Shoes: Who Placed Megan Holmes?
    Oct 22 2026
    The Upright Suitcase and the Clean Shoes: Who Placed Megan Holmes?

    Clean shoes and an upright leather traveling case stopped a road grader at milepost seven - the footwear showed no mud though spring dirt stained wool black in under ten minutes, and the brass-latched case sat upright in twelve photographs taken over an hour without tipping. Who set a tidy thirty-two-year-old bookkeeper down in the mud and left a closed suitcase beside her?

    In this episode, we follow the sequence of records, witness statements, and physical clues tied to Megan Holmes’s disappearance and death, from her last-known movements at Dunbar's Boarding House to the coroner’s scene notes and the three letters found wrapped in a handkerchief. What do the clean shoes, the upright case, and the signed letters reveal about who placed her on the pike?

    Person: Megan Holmes
    Age: 32
    Location: Coshocton Pike, east edge of Millhaven
    Date found: early May 1905
    Letters signed: K (three letters; most recent dated ~ three weeks before discovery)

    - Megan paid board a week in advance and returned from work on time to the quarter hour.
    - Agnes Dunbar recorded Megan planting beans on May 1 and noted she expected a friend Sunday afternoon.
    - The coroner noted the footwear condition “consistent with a body carried and lowered without ground contact.”
    - Inside the upright travel case were three letters, each signed with a single letter: K.
    - A wagon matching witnesses’ description displayed a panel reading “K. KOWALSKI - HAULAGE - DRESDEN” and stopped at Hennessey’s Livery around 6 PM the same Sunday.

  • Ledger Missing, Purse on a Pole: Who Silenced Judith Gray?

    Ledger Missing, Purse on a Pole: Who Silenced Judith Gray?
    Oct 21 2026
    Ledger Missing, Purse on a Pole: Who Silenced Judith Gray?

    A burgundy clasp purse was found wedged three feet below the top of a thirty-two-foot power pole, dry and intact after eleven days of April rain - and inside was a note reading "Tuesday, six p.m., northeast corner, bring the ledger." The ledger that Judith Gray kept to record true production figures was missing, her body was found 180 feet away and had been ruled an accidental fall without autopsy; who moved her ledger and why was the plant allowed to close the case so fast?

    In this episode, we follow the official timeline, the physical evidence, and the investigative thread that refuses to add up, and we ask whether a fatal workplace "accident" masked something deliberate at Fenwick Consolidated - who had motive and opportunity to silence Judith Gray?

    Person: Judith Gray
    Date: April 3-14, 1943
    Location: Fenwick Consolidated Munitions Plant, Caldwell, Indiana
    Investigator: Marvin Wagner
    Item found: Burgandy clasp purse containing $41.60, a ration book, lipstick, and a handwritten note

    - Judith Gray was 52 years old and had worked eleven years in the east assembly building.
    - Her body was discovered at 11:40 a.m., forty minutes after Jesse Polk swept that stretch of floor at 11:00 a.m.
    - A work order to clear Gray's office was filed the morning of April 4, before the family had been notified.
    - Boyd’s safety-walk log showed rounds typically of 20-25 minutes but recorded 51 minutes on the night Gray died.
    - The purse was found 180 feet from where Gray supposedly fell, lodged three feet below the pole top on a 32-foot pole.

  • Sealed With Poison: How a Warm Lantern Exposed a Murder

    Sealed With Poison: How a Warm Lantern Exposed a Murder
    Oct 20 2026
    Sealed With Poison: How a Warm Lantern Exposed a Murder

    A warm lantern burning in an otherwise frozen cellar pointed to a visitor who had been there minutes before-while a corked, wax-sealed green bottle beside a shallow grave was nearly empty. How did a bottle that had never been opened end up drained, and who had motive and opportunity in a drought-ravaged Kansas county where death certificates for “gastric collapse” had become routine?

    In this episode, we lay out the sequence of discoveries and the physical evidence that redirected a supposed drought death into a criminal inquiry. Follow the lantern, the boot print, and the sealed bottle to see how small forensic details raised a single question: was Megan Olson killed, and if so, by whom?

    Person: Megan Olson
    Date: March 7, 1933 (date of death)
    Location: Dumont, Haskell County, Kansas
    Investigator: Norman Wells, KBI investigator
    Suspect: Wade Walker

    - The bottle was green apothecary glass with a cork sealed in green wax and a paper label dated February 1931.
    - Megan Olson farmed 160 acres of dryland wheat and her land was assessed at roughly $2,200 with $41 in her bank account.
    - Wade Walker delivered water every four to five days in two 50-gallon drums and had begun bringing a bottle of iron tonic in January 1933.
    - Emily Burns found a warm lantern in the cellar on the morning of March 9, 1933, and a rectangular hole roughly 12 inches by 14 inches in the dirt floor.
    - A crescent-shaped heel wear on a boot print at the cellar matched a paper tracing of resoled right boot belonging to Wade Walker.
