    • S03E25: Cruelty in Numbers: The Greensburg Six Crimes Against Jennifer Daugherty
      Feb 23 2026
      In February 2010, the quiet town of Greensburg, Pennsylvania, was shaken by a crime so senseless it defied logic. Jennifer Daugherty, a 30-year-old woman known for her kind heart and trusting nature, thought she was spending time with friends. Instead, she walked into a trap that would lead to one of the most harrowing cases of group-think and depravity in modern history.


      A group of six people she met and befriended at a place called West Place Clubhouse held Jennifer hostage in an apartment they all shared on North Pennsylvania Avenue for almost 2 days while they brutally tortured and humiliated her due to one group member's jealousy. The group ultimately decided to kill Jennifer, dismember her, and place her remains in a trash can which they placed in the parking lot of a nearby middle school.


      This case brought to light the frequent exploitation and abuse that individuals with intellectual disabilities often face and helped push a law into effect that allows witnesses of crimes to be charged if they don't report the crimes.

    • S03E24: Stealing a Life: The Betrayal of Stevie Allman
      Feb 2 2026
      In 1997, a house fire in Oakland, California, captured the hearts of the community. Emerging from the smoke was Stevie Allman, a beloved alleged anti-drug activist who claimed local dealers had firebombed her home in retaliation for her neighborhood watch efforts. As she lay in the hospital with severe burns, the city rallied behind her, even receiving a sympathy letter from the White House.But as police looked closer at the woman in the hospital bed, the story began to fracture. Fingerprints revealed a horrifying truth: the woman being hailed as a hero wasn’t Stevie Allman at all—it was her sister, Sarah Mitchell.

      While Sarah Mitchell was being treated for her burns and basking in public sympathy, investigators returned to the charred remains of the Allman home. They weren't just looking for arson evidence anymore; they were looking for the real Stevie.The search ended at a large, chest freezer located in the basement. It was securely padlocked and wrapped in heavy chains. When investigators finally cut the locks, they made a discovery that halted the investigation in its tracks: the body of Stevie Allman, dismembered and frozen, hidden in plain sight while her sister lived just feet away.Forensic analysis later revealed a haunting timeline. Stevie hadn't died in the fire; she had been murdered earlier. Sarah had been living in the house with her sister’s body, cashing Stevie's checks and perfecting her impersonation, using the "firebombing" as a final, desperate act to cover her tracks and explain Stevie's permanent disappearance.

    • S03E23: Ritual of Rumors: The Corpsewood Manor Slayings
      Jan 26 2026
      Deep in the woods of North Georgia, Dr. Charles Scudder and his partner, Joseph "Joey" Odom sought a peaceful, off-grid life in a hand-built brick mansion they called Corpsewood Manor. Rumors always swirled about the lovers and their quaint handbuilt home in the woods. The fact that they were "homosexual devil worshippers" was often the talk of the area, but these men were kind, welcoming, and enjoyed the simple life with the occassional wild party.
      But in 1982, their castle became the site of a grisly double homicide that shocked the nation when two young men devised a plot to rob the men, thinking they must be millionaires due to their extravagant home. Dr. Scudder and Joey invited a 17-year-old hunter in the area, Avery Brock to parties at their home when he stumbled upon it while hunting, asking if he could hunt on the property. Avery then discussed the men and their "so-called fortune" with his troubled roommate, 30-year-old Tony West.
      On the night of December 12, 1982, Avery and Tony decided to put their robbery plan in motion by attending a party at Corpsewood Manor. They brought along two unsuspecting friends, as well, Tony's nephew, Joey Wells, and his friend, Teresa Hudgins. The pair weren't aware of the robbery plan. At the party, Avery shot and killed Joey Odom in his kitchen along with their two English Mastiffs when he tried to explain to them that there was no large fortune hidden in the home. Avery and Tony then tied up and tormented Dr. Scudder, and when he also gave them no fortune, the men shot him 5 times in the head before fleeing the scene with only silver jewelry and Dr. Scudder's black jeep.
      To this day, Corpsewood Manor sits in ruins after a fire destroyed everything but the bricks. Many say it still has an eerie and sad air about it, with people claiming to hear the dogs barking, gunshots, and other unsettling noises.
