[Part 1 of 2]

In 1981, 6-year-old Adam Walsh was kidnapped from the Hollywood Mall in Hollywood, Florida, where he was shopping with his mother Reve. Two weeks later, Adam's partial remains were found in a drainage canal about 136 miles north of where he was abducted.

Adam's parents went on to make significant changes to policy, forever benefiting the families of missing and murdered children. Adam's father, John Walsh, also went on to host over 1,000 episodes of the hit TV show, America's Most Wanted.

In the end, the family and authorities are satisfied that they know who killed Adam, but are you? Well, this is A Trial by Podcast, so we'll let you be the judge.

John McAfee, the creator of the McAfee antivirus software, lived a wild life. Despite his severe drug addiction, he amassed $100 million and ran for U.S. president. He later moved to Belize, where he was accused of the murder of his neighbor, Greg Faull, but never charged for the crime.

After being imprisoned for tax evasion, McAfee reportedly died by suicide. However, before going to prison, McAfee tweeted, "Getting subtle messages from U.S. officials saying, in effect: "We're coming for you McAfee! We're going to kill yourself". I got a tattoo today just in case. If I suicide myself, I didn't."

So was McAfee responsible for the murder of Greg Faull? And did McAfee truly die by suicide, or was he killed? Well, this is A Trial by Podcast, so we'll let you be the judge.

On Christmas Eve, 1945, George and Jenny Sodder watched their home burn entirely to the ground, presumably with five of their 10 children still inside. Officials ruled that Maurice, Martha, Louis, Jennie, and Betty, who were supposed to be asleep on the third floor, died in the fire, yet not a single bone fragment was found in the rubble.

The Sodders found this unbelievable, as the fire did not burn nearly as long or as hot as a cremation chamber, which still leaves bone fragments behind. So did the children really perish in the fire, or as the Sodder family believed, were they kidnapped from the home before it began?

In 1994, 27-year-old Alison Botha was kidnapped outside of her home in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. She was then driven out to a remote location where she was raped, strangled, stabbed over 30 times, and disemboweled by two men: Thuens Krueger and Frans Du Toit. Her throat was cut so deeply she was almost decapitated, and yet, Alison SURVIVED.

In July of 2023, just a year before recording this episode, Alison's attackers were given parole and now live freely amongst society in South Africa. But are they really rehabilitated? Fucking of course not, but we usually ask a question at the end of the summary. Still, this is A Trial by Podcast, so we'll let you be the judge (you will definitely agree with us).

In 2014, Derek and Maria Broaddus were thrilled to buy their dream home in Westfield, New Jersey, eager to move in with their three children. However, their excitement turned to dread just days after closing when they received the first of many unsettling letters from an anonymous stalker who called himself The Watcher.

Unlike typical stalkers, The Watcher’s fixation wasn’t on Derek, Maria, or their children—it was on the house itself. He claimed his family had been ~watching~ the property for generations.

So, who was behind this disturbing campaign? A neighbor with a sinister agenda? A teenager indulging dark fantasies? Or could it even be the Broadduses themselves?

In January 2015, Chanel Miller, then 22, was sexually assaulted by Stanford University student Brock Turner while she was unconscious behind a dumpster on campus. Two graduate students intervened and detained Turner until police arrived. Turner was convicted in March 2016 on three felony counts of sexual assault but received a sentence of only six months in county jail, serving just three months, which sparked widespread public outrage. Miller's powerful victim impact statement, read during Turner's sentencing, went viral and became a rallying cry for survivors of sexual assault. In 2019, she revealed her identity and published the memoir Know My Name, detailing her experience and critiquing the justice system's handling of sexual assault cases. The case led to significant legal reforms in California and the recall of Judge Aaron Persky, who had delivered the lenient sentence.

In today's episode, we discuss the tragic and mysterious murders of Jane Kuria and her two daughters, Isabella and Annabel, in their Georgia home in 2007. Jane was a Kenyan immigrant and an outspoken advocate against female genital mutilation (FGM), working tirelessly to support victims and raise awareness about the harmful practice. Her activism put her at odds with certain groups in Kenya, including the notorious Mungiki sect, which has been linked to violence and intimidation tactics. Investigators initially considered a connection to these threats but struggled to find definitive evidence. A key person of interest in the case was a man known to the family, though no arrests were ever made, leaving the murders officially unsolved. The case remains a haunting mystery, raising questions about the dangers faced by activists and the justice system's challenges in solving crimes involving immigrant families.

Lars Mittank, a German tourist, vanished under bizarre and unsettling circumstances in Varna, Bulgaria, in July 2014. After sustaining an ear injury in a fight, he was advised by a doctor to delay his flight home. During his extended stay, he exhibited paranoid behavior, telling his mother he was being followed and acting fearful at his hotel. On the day of his disappearance, security footage captured him sprinting out of Varna Airport, abandoning his belongings, and disappearing into the wilderness, never to be seen again. His case remains one of the most chilling and mysterious missing person cases, sparking theories ranging from foul play and mental breakdowns to conspiracy theories involving organ trafficking or secret pursuits.

In 2011, 27-year-old Ellen Greenberg was discovered dead in her apartment by her fiancé, Sam Goldberg. She had 20 stab wounds, and a knife still sticking out of her heart. Her death was originally ruled a homicide, but after the medical examiner learned that the fiancé had to break the door down because it was locked from the inside, he changed the manner of death to suicide.

But the math wasn’t mathing here. How could a woman stab herself 10 times in the BACK of her head, neck & shoulders? How could she make the final wound to the heart despite the previous stab wounds to her spine and cranial cavity? Ellen’s parents spent 14 years of their lives and over $700k fighting to get the manner of death changed from suicide so their daughter’s death could be investigated. 

Finally, in 2025, the original medical examiner released a statement agreeing that the manner of death should not have been ruled a suicide, and authorities have agreed to re-investigate the case.

In 2011, 27-year-old Ellen Greenberg was discovered dead in her apartment by her fiancé, Sam Goldberg. She had 20 stab wounds, and a knife still sticking out of her heart. Her death was originally ruled a homicide, but after the medical examiner learned that the fiancé had to break the door down because it was locked from the inside, he changed the manner of death to suicide.

But the math wasn’t mathing here. How could a woman stab herself 10 times in the BACK of her head, neck & shoulders? How could she make the final wound to the heart despite the previous stab wounds to her spine and cranial cavity? Ellen’s parents spent 14 years of their lives and over $700k fighting to get the manner of death changed from suicide so their daughter’s death could be investigated. 

Finally, in 2025, the original medical examiner released a statement agreeing that the manner of death should not have been ruled a suicide, and authorities have agreed to re-investigate the case.

In 1998, 23-year-old Stacey Colbert was brutally attacked in her Columbus, Ohio, apartment. She was murdered, but her remains wouldn't be discovered for nearly seven years. Decades later, law enforcement is confident they know who took Stacey’s life—but without enough evidence, they’ve been unable to make an arrest.

A teacher, a dentist, a mother, and two hitmen collude to murder a law professor... it reads like the start of a bad joke, but this is what authorities believe happened to 41-year-old FSU law professor, Dan Markel.

Amber Tuccaro, a 20-year-old member of the Mikisew Cree First Nation, disappeared on August 18, 2010, after hitchhiking from a motel in Nisku, Alberta, toward Edmonton. During the ride, she called her incarcerated brother, and the call was recorded, capturing a conversation in which she questioned the driver's route, expressing concern that he was not taking her where she wanted to go. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) released a portion of this recording in 2012, hoping the public could identify the man's voice.

Shortly after, Amber's remains were discovered in a field in Leduc County, south of her last known location. The RCMP faced significant criticism for their handling of the case, including delays in initiating the investigation and mishandling of evidence, leading to a formal apology in 2019. Despite these efforts, the case remains unsolved, and Tuccaro's family continues to seek justice.

The Murders of Ben Smart and Olivia Hope: A Controversial Case

In this episode, Kelsey and Emily delve into one of New Zealand's most infamous mysteries—the disappearances of Ben Smart and Olivia Hope on New Year's Eve 1997. The pair vanished after boarding a boat with a mystery man, and despite extensive searches, their bodies were never found. 26-year-old Scott Watson was convicted of their murders based largely on circumstantial evidence and later-discredited witness testimonies, but he has always maintained his innocence.

The episode examines Watson's controversial conviction, the shaky evidence presented at trial, and the ongoing debate about whether the right man was imprisoned. Join the hosts as they navigate through this complex case, questioning the reliability of the evidence and discussing if justice was truly served.

[Part 3 of 3]

The day after Christmas, 1996, Patsy Ramsey woke up early to get her family ready for a flight. On the staircase of her home, she found a 2.5 page ransom note informing her and her husband John that their daughter, 6-year-old JonBenét had been taken. It noted that if the family paid $118,000 in ransom, they would get her back.

However, this promise was an empty one, as JonBenét's body was discovered in the basement of the home that afternoon, despite multiple searches. Many believe that it was someone in the Ramsey family who killed JonBenét, but could it have been an intruder?

On the staircase of her home, she found a 2.5 page ransom note informing her and her husband John that their daughter, 6-year-old JonBenét had been taken. It noted that if the family paid $118,000 in ransom, they would get her back.

However, this promise was an empty one, as JonBenét's body was discovered in the basement of the home that afternoon, despite multiple searches. Many believe that it was someone in the Ramsey family who killed JonBenét, but could it have been an intruder?

14-year-old Max DeVries disappeared while jet-skiing with a stranger his family met during a vacation in Aruba in 2004. Authorities initially ruled Max's loss as a tragic accident, but the man’s account of what happened on the water raised suspicions for the DeVries family.

When it was revealed that the man had a very troubling past, the family became convinced that Max’s disappearance was not accidental but a deliberate act. Was it truly a tragic incident at sea, as officials claimed, or is there a more sinister reality behind Max's fate?

On May 14th, 2008, 19-year-old Brandon Swanson drove his car into a ditch, but, by his own account, was not injured. He called his parents for help, but was unable to describe exactly where he was. He had been on the phone with them for over 45 minutes when he yelled “oh shit!” The line then went silent, and despite the fact that the car was found, Brandon was never seen again, and to this day, no one knows what happened to him.

Was he the victim of foul play, did he decide to walk away from his life, or did a series of accidents not only take Brandon’s life but also hide his body away forever?

In 2020, 35-year-old Jessica Lewis and 27-year-old Austin Wenner were shot and killed by their landlord, Michael Dudley. Dudley then dismembered their bodies, put them into dufflebags and suitcases, and scattered their remains across bodies of water and forested areas in and around Seattle.

The first set of remains was discovered by a group of teenagers, who posted a series of TikTok videos documenting their discovery. In this episode, not only do we tell Jessica and Austin’s story, but we discuss what is the proper way to act if you ever were to (God-forbid) discover human remains.

In April 2015, Victoria Cilliers, an experienced skydiving instructor, survived a 4,000-foot fall when both her main and reserve parachutes failed during a jump in Wiltshire, England. Investigations revealed that her husband, Emile Cilliers, a British Army sergeant, had deliberately sabotaged her parachutes in an attempt to murder her and claim a £120,000 life insurance payout to alleviate his debts and start a new life with his mistress. This was his second attempt on her life; a week earlier, he had tampered with a gas valve at their home, hoping to cause an explosion. In 2018, Emile Cilliers was convicted of two counts of attempted murder and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 18 years. ​

True Crime Creepers Link Tree⁠

In February 2022, best friends Saqib Hussain and Hashim Ijazuddin were killed in a deliberate and calculated car crash on the A46 in Leicestershire, England. The pair had been lured to the area under false pretenses by a woman named Ansreen Bukhari and her daughter, TikTok influencer Mahek Bukhari, after Saqib—who had been in a secret relationship with Ansreen—threatened to expose their affair. What followed was a high-speed chase orchestrated by Mahek and a group of accomplices, ending with Saqib and Hashim’s car being rammed off the road and bursting into flames. Investigators would later uncover a plot rooted in deception, blackmail, and social media clout, exposing the chilling lengths some would go to protect their reputations.
