A podcast, a librarian, and a genetic genealogist. After police identified Terry Peder Rasmussen as the man who had killed at least six people across the United States, they were still working to identify the four victims found outside of Bear Brook Park.

A serial killer, a trail of destruction and a name police had never heard. In 1985 in Allenstown, New Hampshire, a blue barrel with the remains of a woman and a young child were discovered in the woods near Bear Brook State Park. Fifteen years later, a cold case detective made another grisly discovery, another blue barrel and two more victims, both of them children. As investigators began to retrace the steps of the man they knew as Curtis Kimball, they discovered that he had a connection to New Hampshire and the site where the remains had been found. After several decades, investigators finally discovered the true identity of a serial killer.

This week Margot with Military Murder Podcast is here filling in! On May 13, 1998, an unsettling discovery was made beneath a billboard in Mebane, NC - the lifeless body of a young boy. This tragic finding raised haunting questions: Who was this child? Had he been murdered elsewhere before being dumped in this desolate spot, perhaps weeks earlier? What added to the mystery was the heartbreaking reality that no one had reported a little boy missing, leaving his identity shrouded in darkness. Whith scant evidence on the scene and the body, the case went cold. Yet, amidst this despair, one determined investigator refused to give up. Driven by an unwavering commitment to justice, they continued to search for answers. And then, in an astonishing turn of events in December 2018, the truth finally came to light; the identity of the boy was uncovered. This is more than just a story of loss; it's a testament to perseverance, the relentless pursuit of justice, and the hope that even in the darkest times, the truth can find a way to emerge. Join us as we delve into this gripping tale of mystery and resolution. Dig in with Margot, as she tells you the gripping mystery and resolution of the murders of Bobby Whitt and Myong Whitt.

However, our friends, Lori and Jen at Dealing Justice have just dropped a new season and they were gracious enough to share their first episode from Season 3 with us! Fourteen-year-old Anthony Lamar Peterson went missing during the summer of 2005 while visiting family in Palatka, Florida.  Days later, his unrecognizable body was found floating in Deep Creek, just miles from where he was last seen.

Vacuum marks, a brightly colored blanket, and Christmas tinsel.  In November of 2007,  68-year-old, Sara Dixon was found shot to death inside her home in Burlington, North Carolina.  From the moment investigators arrived at the home on McCray Road it appeared that the scene had been staged to look like a robbery gone wrong. While it appeared nothing of value had been taken, there were several clues left behind; Christmas tinsel stuck to the door, an empty picture hanger, and a footprint in the carpet.  A year after Sara's murder a man walked into the police station and gave investigators a small piece of information that unraveled the entire case.  Sponsors:  OneSkin Age healthy with OneSkin.
