  • The Fitness Watch That Kept Beating After She Was Strangled

    The Fitness Watch That Kept Beating After She Was Strangled
    25 Oct 2026
    The Fitness Watch That Kept Beating After She Was Strangled

    A fitness watch on Ruth Carter's wrist logged a resting heart rate of 61 bpm long after she left a clinic and was later found strangled in a snowdrift, and a dark-green utility van kept turning up near other victims - so how did a single stretch of mountain highway hide four women connected by season, geography, and one vehicle?

    In this episode, we follow the sequence of events from Ruth Carter's last confirmed sighting at 5:25 PM on February 7, 2011 to the discovery of three more women over the next fourteen months, asking how disparate cases across county lines and an idling van might form a pattern that agencies initially missed.

    Person: Ruth Carter
    Date: February 7, 2011
    Location: Lot Seven, Timberline Village Condominiums
    Cause: Manual strangulation
    Vehicle: Dark-green utility van

    - Ruth Carter was 28 years old and left the Ridgeline Sports Medicine clinic at approximately 5:25 PM.
    - The fitness watch on her wrist recorded a resting heart rate of 61 beats per minute when recovered.
    - The medical examiner estimated Ruth had been dead between 36 and 50 hours before discovery.
    - A dark-green van appeared on Ridgeline camera footage idling near the clinic at about 5:25 PM and left 11 minutes later; the plate was only partially visible.
    - Wendy Plass, 31, was found in her Dunmore apartment on March 22, 2011; her initial cause was listed as accidental overdose then revised to undetermined after subtle neck bruising was noted.

  • The Hard Hat Left Behind: How a Rotation Revealed a Killer

    The Hard Hat Left Behind: How a Rotation Revealed a Killer

    The Hard Hat Left Behind: How a Rotation Revealed a Killer

    A bright orange hard hat with the name Craig Keller sat on the passenger seat of a beige Dodge Stratus found in a church parking lot five days after a 56-year-old dietary aide vanished, and the employer’s dispatch log shows a four-minute call that “never happened.” Who connected a mine technician’s rotation between Nevada and Utah to a woman who had never been on an industrial site, and why did a routine rotation leave the single clue that cracked a forty-day chain reaching back four years?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from a 4:12 phone call at 6:47 p.m. on January 10, 2019, through the discovery of the car and the hard hat, and the detective work that tied a rotation schedule to three linked cases; what started as a missing-person report becomes a multi-state pattern that raises the question: how did a man who worked two weeks in, two weeks out along a highway corridor become invisible, and what did the hard hat finally reveal?

    Person: Lauren Allen
    Date: January 10, 2019
    Location: Dunmore, Nevada
    Person: Craig Keller
    Case: Vehicle found January 15, 2019

    - Lauren Allen made a 4-minute-and-12-second phone call at 6:47 p.m. on January 10, 2019, to an internal dispatch number at her employer.
    - Lauren Allen was 56 years old and had worked 11 years as a dietary aide at Dunmore Valley Senior Living.
    - The Dodge Stratus was found in the Bethel Cross Community Church parking lot on January 15, 2019, after sitting in the same spot since the weekend.
    - The hard hat found on the passenger seat was bright orange with a sticker reading "Craig Keller" and a barcode from Pelham Basin mine operations.
    - Craig Keller worked for Ridgeway Industrial Services on a two-weeks-in, two-weeks-out rotation between Pelham Basin, Nevada, and Drover Creek, Millard County, Utah, and had been running that corridor for six years.

  • She Folded His Hands: The Dealer Who Vanished After a Touch

    She Folded His Hands: The Dealer Who Vanished After a Touch
    23 Oct 2026
    She Folded His Hands: The Dealer Who Vanished After a Touch

    The first clue was a loyalty-card swipe logged at an employee cafeteria - the last digital trace of a twenty-three-year-old whose body was later found staged under cedar branches. How did a routine database entry become the single thread that tied an office worker to a concealed killer?

    In this episode, we lay out the sequence of events from a November 2011 disappearance to a December 14th discovery, showing how records, surveillance gaps, and workplace access intersected with the investigation. Who had the access, the motive, and the knowledge to hide a life in plain sight?

    Date: December 14, 2011
    Person: Lloyd Hicks
    Location: Eugene Crawford trail, Pelican County
    Job: Rewards Worker Coordinator access recorded at Sunrise Pines (last swipe)
    Cause of death: Manual strangulation with ligature binding

    - Lloyd Hicks was 23 years old when his remains were found on December 14, 2011.
    - A beagle named Chester found a human arm in a cedar blowdown on a two-mile gravel trail.
    - The body was deliberately arranged with arms at the sides and cedar placed in overlapping rows.
    - The last recorded activity was Lloyd swiping his Catawba Rewards card at the employee cafeteria.
    - The Rewards Worker Coordinator had read-write access to loyalty data across three properties and monitored on-property presence in real time.
