November 19, 2019 05:00 - 8 minutes - 19.7 MB

Episode Notes: Anaheim investigator Julissa Trapp is not like other detectives. She’s the only woman on the homicide squad, and a skilled chameleon: undercover cop in vice stings, crime-scene commander, patient confidante of killers. A master interrogator, she invokes her personal experience – and deepest griefs -- as a tool to elicit confessions. When a young woman’s body is found at a trash-sorting plant, Trapp learns the murder may be linked to the disappearance of three other women in nea...

October 13, 2019 04:00 - 32 minutes - 73.8 MB

Through the latter half of the 1830's, an urban legend began to take shape on the rooftops and in the foggy alleyways of London. First came rumors of an entity named "Steel Jack," who assaulted people (primarily women) in the dark of night. Over time, though, the rumors began to evolve, with the shadowy figure assaulting men and women alike throughout all of England, and engaging in physical feats deemed inhuman. Decades later, the myth of "Spring-Heeled Jack" continued to live on, with th...

October 06, 2019 04:00 - 46 minutes - 107 MB

September 29, 2019 04:00 - 43 minutes - 99.8 MB

In August of 2016, a mysterious hacker collective began releasing files and folders stolen directly from the NSA. Many of the programs this person or group released appeared to be legitimate cyber-weapons, which had been developed by U.S. intelligence. Despite the audaciousness of their posts - which became more immature and unhinged as time went on - the files they released seemed to have come directly from an NSA server. A leak of this magnitude had never been seen before, and the cyber-...

September 01, 2019 04:00 - 37 minutes - 85.5 MB

On February 2nd, 2009, a woman walking her dog would stumble upon the largest crime scene in Albuquerque history. In the years prior, this once-desolate corner of ABQ had been ground zero for rapid expansion. Housing developments had been popping up left and right, but the 2008 recession caused a vast amount of land to remain undeveloped: in particular, a roughly 100-acre lot located just west of 118th Street. While out on an evening stroll, a woman's dog would unearth a human bone. Before...
