November 01, 2022 09:00 - 9 minutes

November 1st: Matthew Hoffman Born (1980) In some cases, we may never know the “why”. The reason for the killing or for the behavior that was a precursor.

October 30, 2022 09:00 - 12 minutes

October 29, 2022 09:00 - 8 minutes

October 29th: Velma Barfield Born (1932) When everyone involved with a certain someone seems to die shortly after meeting them, it seems like such events should raise some pretty serious red-flags. On October 29th 1932 a woman was born who would take the lives of person after person without detection or somehow raising any real red-flags.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velma_Barfield, https://www.crimemuseum.org/crime-library/serial-killers/velma-barfield/, http://murderpedia.org/female.B/b/b...

October 26, 2022 09:00 - 13 minutes

October 26th: Billy Ray Irick’s Trial Begins(1986) The gift of hindsight doesn’t always mean we can correct a wrong. On October 26th 1986 the trial for a man charged with raping and killing a 7 year old girl began. A trial that, when looked at with hindsight, should have ended with a much different sentence for the guilty party. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Ray_Irick, https://murderpedia.org/male.I/i/irick-billy-ray.htm, https://tennesseedeathpenalty.org/the-cases/billy-ray-irick-2/, h...

October 23, 2022 09:00 - 8 minutes

October 23rd: Bedgebury Forest Woman's Body Found (1979) A case involving a Jane Doe, for the most part, means the case is stuck frozen solid.

October 22, 2022 09:00 - 20 minutes

October 22nd: Davina Buff Jones Dies(1999) A small sleepy town doesn’t seem like the kind of place to have a murder, let alone a police cover-up. On October 22nd 1999 a police officer was found dead while out on patrol in the sleepy little island just off North Carolina. A death, or murder, that many believe is part of a march larger, and much more dangerous, cover-up by police and the District Attorney.  https://www.forbes.com/sites/crime/2012/06/25/analysis-of-13-year-mysterious-death-of-c...

October 19, 2022 09:00 - 14 minutes

October 19th: Jonathan Wesley Stephenson Sentenced (1990) Divorce, for some, doesn’t seem like a viable option. Especially for dangerous people who don't want their money taken away. On October 19th 1990 a man who thought divorce was not an option was sentenced for the role he played in his wife’s murder. A sentencing that concluded a trial where all of the information we know on the case was finally brought to light through testimony and police work. https://murderpedia.org/male.S/s/stephens...

A woman whose death, in addition to being unsolved, leads to far more questions than answers.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Pinchot_Meyer, https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/44-years-later...

October 13th: Claudius I Killed By Wife (54 AD) Sometimes, there is so much more to a story than just the murder. On October 13th 54 CE, a man was killed by the woman who was his wife in a crime in which the murder is only a fraction of a bigger, and highly political, tale of the Roman Empire.  https://www.historytoday.com/archive/months-past/death-emperor-claudius, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claudius, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1279685/, https://www.scientificamerican.co...

On October 12th 1998 a young boy was murdered and, though the motive remains a topic of debate for some, his death became the push some needed to pass a much needed law to ensure safety for certain minority groups like the LGBTQIA+ community.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_Shepard, https://www.matthewshepard.org/about-us/our-story/, http...
