In this episode of The Real ResQ, host Jason Quinn is joined by William Boudreau and Kevin Bronson from the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department.Recorded live at their Keene, NH office, the episode dives into how both Boudreau and Bronson earned their place among the state's elite Search and Rescue professionals. We get a first-hand look at the tools, training, and responsibilities that make New Hampshire Fish and Game the cornerstone of rescue operations throughout the state.Bronson recalls his first rescue on Mt. Monadnock—a frigid mission to save a woman with a broken leg at the summit—while Boudreau shares memories from a dramatic flood response, where every available officer turned out with trucks, boats, and quads.Together, they recount a harrowing cliffside rescue: when an evening hike on Mount Kilburn became a life-or-death emergency, a young hiker's fall sparked a dramatic, multi-agency response. Listeners get an inside look as Fish and Game joined forces with local volunteer SAR climbers, fire and EMS crews, and the National Guard's H60 helicopter—air and ground teams working in concert to save a life.The episode also explores the department's unique capabilities in solving "cold cases," including the search for an individual missing for nearly half a century.Enjoy!This episode is powered by Vertical HeliCASTS.Thank you for sponsoring this episode of The Real ResQ: , ReadyBAR, and The Real ResQ Store.Follow The Real ResQ on Facebook and Instagram and listen on Vertical HeliCASTS.

This is not a book about conspiracy theories. It is an in-depth look at the evidence and a discussion about what might have taken place had the case gone to trial. The author, Jim Leach, is a career law enforcement professional with much experience investigating homicides, many of them Cold Cases. Mr. Leach was also co-owner of Training Services Group, Inc. for 25 years and trained thousands of officers in the art of murder investigation.The book is available at Amazon.com, or, if you wish, you can get a signed copy from the publisher at https://zoegracepublishing.com

Kenzie kicks things off with the state's oldest cold case: the murder of Mary Robin Walter. For 44 years, this case remained unsolved—until advances in technology and modern investigative techniques finally brought the truth to light. Then, Lauren takes us deep into two of Kansas's creepiest urban legends. First up is the Hamburger Man (and no, we don't mean the Hamburglar), a sinister figure said to turn his victims into hamburgers. Next is the chilling Smiling Man, a legend that comes with truly terrifying first-hand encounters.

Onopgeloste moorden, verdwenen mensen die nooit geïdentificeerd zijn of vermisten die nooit zijn gevonden. Het gerecht sloot die zaken af omdat ze niet genoeg informatie vonden. België heeft een duizendtal cold cases. Maar Kurt Wertelaers en zijn onderzoeksbureau geven de zoektocht niet op.
On a quiet August night in 2009, the lives of two families were forever altered in Bray, County Wicklow. Shane Clancy, a 22-year-old Trinity College student, committed an act of violence that left one dead and two injured before taking his own life. This episode delves into the events leading up to that fateful night, exploring Shane's descent from a promising scholar to a troubled young man consumed by obsession. We examine the complex factors at play, including mental health struggles, relationship breakdown, and questions surrounding antidepressant medication. This is a story of love, loss, and the devastating consequences when a life unravels. Join Nules as she navigates the heartbreaking complexities of the Shane Clancy case and its lasting impact on all who knew him.Head over to the Ireland Crimes and Mysteries website for more !www.irelandcrimesandmysteries.ieJoin me over on Patreon for extra perks https://www.patreon.com/IrelandCrimesandMysteriesEarly access to episodes, monthly livestreams where we will be discussing the cases I've covered and much more as we build our own community.

For nearly fifty years, two cold cases haunted the Stanford community.In 1973 and 1974, 21-year-olds Leslie Perlov and Janet Taylor were brutally murdered near the university campus. Both were strangled. Both cases went unsolved—until modern forensic genealogy exposed a killer hiding in plain sight.John Arthur Getreu seemed like an ordinary man. A community volunteer. A Scout leader. A father and husband. But beneath the surface, he was a serial predator with a dark history stretching back to 1963, when he raped and murdered a teenage girl in West Germany while still in high school.We unpack the chilling life of John Getreu—from his early crimes abroad to the murders he committed on American soil. We follow the women whose lives he stole, the families left searching for answers, and the decades-long silence shattered by a single strand of DNA.This is a story of justice delayed, but not denied.

Ein junger kanadischer Eishockeyspieler verschwindet spurlos im Tirol – und wird erst 14 Jahre später im Eis des Stubaier Gletschers gefunden. Die offizielle Erklärung: ein tragischer Unfall. Doch es gibt Hinweise, die eine ganz andere Geschichte erzählen. In dieser Folge nehmen wir euch mit in einen der mysteriösesten Cold Cases der Alpenregion. Wir rekonstruieren die letzten bekannten Schritte von Duncan Macpherson, werfen einen Blick auf die offiziellen Ermittlungen – und zeigen auf, warum viele Expertinnen, Journalistinnen und seine Familie bis heute überzeugt sind: Hier wurde vertuscht. War es wirklich ein Unfall? Oder wurde der Tod absichtlich unter dem Gletscher begraben? Ein Fall voller offener Fragen, Widersprüche – und einer Theorie, die Gänsehaut hinterlässt.

This is episode 232 - Diamond Geology as an Art, Dinosaur Veldskoene and Waterboer's claim Just a quick note about that amazing podcaster Nicole Engelbrecht —She is the host & creator of True Crime South Africa and the author of Samurai Sword Murder, Sizzlers, and co-author of Killer Stories. Well now there's another book in her growing body of work called Bare Bones, Cold Cases from True Crime South Africa as part of the Jonathan Ball stable. I've been given view of an advanced copy and its chilling — perfect to read on a frozen winter's night in front of a fire. Right. 1870. By the start of the year there were about 1000 diggers near the Vaal River, hunting diamonds, at the end of that year the number had risen ten to 10 000. They made their way to the area from around the world, once landing in Cape Town or Algoa Bay, and some in Durban, they'd travel up to the river diggings taking two months, or six weeks if they were lucky. Once there, they'd set up camp, pitching tents, building little shanties, or living in their wagons. These global prospectors first headed for the largest of these camps - a place called Klipdrift, which eventually became the town of Barkley West, about 35 kilometers north west of Kimberley. The new Eldorado as it was being called saw men dressed in what was called a proper digger's outfit. This consisted of a broad-brimmed hat, a corduroy suit, a stout waste belt with pockets all around, extra strong boots, a bowie knife, a revolver, and spare rounds of ammunition. They'd have to secure their seat from the ports to the dry uplands, preferably in a Bullock-wagon or some in the Cape Scotchcart, drawn by horses. They were riding shotgun or at the back along with around three tonnes of goods consigned to the camps because everything had to be transported in. There was virtually no local food available, even water had to be carted from higher up the Vaal. It took forty days to trek to the diggings, with many holdups including a fairly lengthy delay at Bethulie in order to cross the mighty Orange River. The River diggings stretched about 40 kilometres west and northwest towards Delportspoort. The rush to gather alluvial diamonds along the rivers had begun along both banks of the Vaal River. The rise and fall of this important waterway had washed thousands of these gems onto the surface in channels — both current and ancient. So who owned that land? Griqualand West Captain Nicholas Waterboer believed it was his. The Griquas here were uneasily exposed in a salient of territory, a kind of peninsular on a map, projecting into the Orange Free State, across the Vaal River, and to the west, abutting the Tswana Territories of the Kalahari. The diamond discoveries sent shockwaves through every corner of South African life, with the sciences feeling the first jolt. Geology and mineralogy suddenly mattered in a way they hadn't before, as men sought to read the land for clues to its hidden riches. But at the root of it all lay something deeply human — an eternal hunger for instant treasure. It's the same impulse that drives a gambler to scratch a card or chase a lottery win, that rush of endorphins when chance seems to offer everything. Or when a pan yields a diamond worth thousands.
Ciaran McConnell joins Nules once again to discuss recent developments in high-profile Irish missing persons cases. They delve into the reclassification of Annie McCarrick's disappearance as murder, exploring new leads and the ongoing investigation. The conversation covers the Fiona Pender case, media coverage disparities, and the Michael Gaine murder. Ciaran offers insights on investigative techniques, societal biases in crime reporting, and the challenges faced by law enforcement. The podcast highlights the importance of keeping cold cases in the public eye and the impact on victims' families, while also touching on the complexities of solving long-standing mysteries.For more information on The Vanishing TriangleHead over to Ciaran's website:https://www.irelandsvanishingtriangle.com/the-vanishedListen to Ciarans PodcastThe Cliff's Edge:https://open.spotify.com/show/7hccavpu9iKdB3w9ExeaOf?si=2df71abe8675481fHead over to the Ireland Crimes and Mysteries website for more !www.irelandcrimesandmysteries.ieJoin me over on Patreon for extra perks https://www.patreon.com/IrelandCrimesandMysteriesEarly access to episodes, monthly livestreams where we will be discussing the cases I've covered and much more as we build our own community.

In this gripping episode, we dive deep into Race Against Time—the astonishing true story of how award-winning investigative journalist Jerry Mitchell helped reopen some of the most notorious unsolved murder cases from the civil rights era. From the infamous Mississippi Burning murders to the firebombing of Vernon Dahmer's home and the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing, Mitchell's relentless pursuit of truth helped expose hidden crimes, unmask KKK killers, and bring long-delayed justice to the victims of racial violence.Through dogged reporting, secret FBI documents, and chilling confrontations with former Klansmen, Mitchell cracked cold cases that had gone untouched for decades. His work led to the convictions of men who believed they'd gotten away with racist murders committed in the shadows of Jim Crow America.This is not just a story of murder and conspiracy—it's a story of courage, accountability, and the power of journalism to right historical wrongs. If you're drawn to true crime, racial justice, civil rights history, and investigative reporting, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Two cold cases from the Hudson Valley. The murders of L. Richard Rosenberg and Richard Aderson have still not been solved.
Bei manchen Gewalttaten stochert die Polizei jahrelang im Nebel. Kein Hinweis auf den Mörder oder Vergewaltiger, und das trotz DNA-Spuren am Tatort. In den letzten Jahren hat in den USA eine neue Quelle geholfen, solche Cold Cases doch noch zu lösen: DNA-Profile, die Hobbyforscher in Ahnenforschungs-Datenbanken hinterlegen. Die Ermittler können über diese Daten einen Hinweis auf den Täter bekommen. Ab 1.7. ist diese Methode erstmals auch in zwei EU-Ländern erlaubt, in Schweden und Dänemark. In diesem Podcast klären wir, wie das funktioniert und wo die Grenzen sind. Host in dieser Folge ist Birgit Magiera.

For decades, Native Americans and Alaskan Natives have experienced disproportionately high rates of murder, rape and other violent crimes. Experts say it's an outcome of generational trauma and systemic abuse. Stephanie Sy reports from New Mexico, where a lack of law enforcement resources is just one reason why so many of these cases are never solved. It's part of our series, Race Matters.

They explore the "Dark Triad" personality traits common in serial killers, the motivations behind familicide, and the impact of social media on high-profile cases like Chris Watts. Gary offers insights into the mentality of killers, the role of childhood experiences, and society's fascination with true crime. The conversation covers recent Irish cases, including the Michael Gaine and Tina Satchwell cases, as well as international incidents. Gary's expertise in psychology provides a deep dive into the complexities of the criminal mind and the factors that contribute to extreme acts of violence.Back Gary's fantastic latest project “How it Falls Apart” on Kickstarter.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/garycolton/how-it-falls-apart-an-immersive-dystopian-thriller/descriptionWith its blend of psychological suspense, social commentary, and technological angst, How It Falls Apart explores the mechanics of totalitarianism and the catastrophic consequences of artificial intelligence advancing beyond our control.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITA shocking tragedy unfolds when a long-term murder suspect takes his own life during a virtual interview with investigators. Michael Thomas, connected to a 2010 cold case where a young mother was beaten to death while her baby lay nearby, controlled a 45-minute Zoom conversation before shooting himself on camera. Why did justice take so long, and what happens now for the victim's family and her child, who's grown up without resolution?The landscape of gender policy continues to evolve rapidly across America. The FBI has issued a call for citizens to report medical facilities performing gender transition procedures on minors, following renewed federal interest in protecting children from potentially harmful interventions. Meanwhile, Nebraska joins 24 other states in enacting legislation that prevents males from competing in girls' sports, with Governor Jim Pillen signing the "Women's Act" into law. These developments highlight the growing tension between state and federal approaches to gender-related issues while Congress remains largely inactive.Beyond the headlines, we explore a personal question about relationships and expectations. When my husband brings me coffee and kisses me good morning, is it love or duty driving his actions? This sparked a fascinating conversation about the unspoken "duties" men feel obligated to perform in relationships. Men, we want to hear from you – do you have a mental checklist of things you do out of obligation rather than genuine desire? Share your thoughts on the secret duties of husbands and whether these gendered expectations help or hinder authentic connections. What rituals in your relationship began as conscious efforts but evolved into genuine expressions of love?Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

After more than four decades of silence, Parabon Nanolabs and cutting-edge genetic genealogy are reigniting public interest in three men who were—separately and confusingly—all referred to as the ‘Freeway Killer': Patrick Kearney, William Bonin, and Randy Kraft. Kraft, convicted of 16 murders in California, is suspected of killing dozens more young men across the West Coast—often targeting Marines, hitchhikers, and teenagers. Many of his victims, if his infamous “scorecard” is to be believed, likely remain unidentified to this day.In this episode, we examine the recent identifications of Larry Eugene Parks and Michael Ray Schlict—both previously known only as John Does. Their cases, reopened thanks to advances in DNA technology and genetic genealogy, mirror the disturbing patterns seen in Randy Kraft's known crimes: victims hogtied, drugged, mutilated, and left near highways like I-5. We explore the haunting evidence that investigators believe may link Kraft to these cold cases—including personal belongings, drug traces, and the cryptic list of coded names that earned him his nickname: the “Scorecard Killer.”If you're drawn to forensic breakthroughs, unsolved murders, and the darkest corners of the 1970s and '80s true crime landscape, this case will stay with you.Visit our website!

Veteran crime reporter Bob Ward of Boston 25 News joins me for a candid conversation about the recent online hysteria surrounding a New England serial killer after 12 people have been recovered around Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Drawing from his nearly three decades as host of "New England's Unsolved," Bob shares the profound impact of covering cases like Theresa Corley's 1978 murder—a young woman he personally knew before her death. This intimate connection frames a deeper discussion about the responsibility journalists carry when amplifying victims' stories.The conversation turns to the troubling social media frenzy claiming a serial killer is responsible for recent bodies discovered throughout New England. While acknowledging the region's history with serial predators, we agree that there is cause for concern about how unfounded speculation harms legitimate investigations and re-traumatizes families. "It's very tempting to think that one bad guy or two bad guys are responsible for all this evil, "but I just don't think life works that way." -Bob WardWe spotlight numerous cases deserving attention—Melanie Melanson, Debra Melo, Bruce Crowley, Reina Morales Rojas—whose families continue waiting for answers while internet sleuths chase shadows.• The justice system often fails victims' families by providing few updates while requiring them to repeatedly relive trauma at parole hearings• Online speculation about a "New England serial killer" diverts resources from legitimate investigations• Internet misinformation is causing real harm, from false confessions to wrongful accusations• True crime advocacy should focus on supporting families and respecting victims rather than sensationalizing casesJoin us at Middlesex County Superior Court on Monday, May 12th at 10am for the arraignment in Charlene Rosemond's murder case, whose family has waited 16 years for justice.Other cases included: Andy Puglisi, Beth Brodie, Jeffrey Curley, Janet Downing, Colleen Ritzer, Shaun Ouillette, Miguel Oliveras, New Bedford Highway murders, Boston Strangler, Henry Bedard, Jr, Deanna Cremin, Bruce Crowley, Brittany Tee, Maura Murray, Shannan Gilbert, Lonene Rogers "Lonnie's Law"Up next, the history of serial killers in New England.More at crimeofthetruestkind.comSupport the showFollow Instagram | Facebook | BlueSky | TikTok | Threads | YouTube For show notes & source information at CrimeoftheTruestKind.comGive the dogs a bone tip jar: buymeacoffee.com/truestkindBecome a patron: Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkindThis podcast has minimal profanity but from time to time you get one or some curse words.

Rose Brady’s job running Baltimore County’s SVU was a frustrating one. The sexual violence crimes she and her team were investigating were just the tip of the iceberg. Her department was sitting on thousands of unsolved rape cases, dating back decades - with little hope of ever finding the perpetrators. That was until Rose made an incredible discovery: At a local hospital, a diligent forensic pathologist had kept in storage all the biological evidence from every rape exam he had ever performed. This could be the key to getting justice for hundreds of desperate women.
