She died explosively in childbirth two days prior. Her house burned down this morning.Kaleb saved Davey and brought him home. His wife didn't want the baby, so he purchased a baby blanket and took him swaddled to the firehouse.Barrett tried to turn Davey over to the authorities, but each time, one of the SampicKnights who fought the alien intervened, determined to kill Davey.Sampic was an international sensation calling for a unified front to make earth into a safe haven. Some of his followers committed suicide. He was now calling for them to kill the baby with the birthmark over his eye.Police chief Nelson Kessler physically looks like Sampic, with his dark hair and eyes. Irene suspects he may be involved with everything going on. He is known to be grandiose with a mean streak, according to Barrett, his former friend.Betty Lou Turner was uploading Sampic videos at her home and tried to show them to Barrett, but he wouldn't watch. Barrett said Betty Lou is forgetting things, like how she called him with a “cardiac attack” on the day his wife and son died. She denies she called him but noted the accident happened the same day as the meteor.FBI agent Irene Van Horten doesn't trust Nelson Kessler. She has copies of the videos and has traced the IP to a local computer.

Newly retired David Blazen is looking for his next adventure. He finds it in a slightly used certificate and the creation of Detective Blaze. Now he's part of the good guys keeping Chicago safe.

With his retirement, he went from being an innovative workaholic with a 200+ team to a man with no forum to exercise his mind, all in a day. Desperate to do something creative, he imagined a fictitious character facing the same traumatic reality of retirement.

Antwerp, Belgium, February 2003. The Antwerp Diamond Center was an impregnable fortress in the diamond capital…until it wasn't. Thieves disabled the vaults heat and motion sensors and got around and/or through Doppler radar, a lock with 100 million combinations, and 2-ft thick metal doors that signaled the police if pulled apart. The industrious thieves had 4-5 hours in the vault, leaving with diamonds, gems, and cash valued at $100mil at the time and more like $160mil today. On their exit, they took the security footage. They would have gotten away cleanly…if they had only cleaned up after themselves. The bags of trash they left in the woods along the highway provided the clues that led to the arrest and conviction of Leonardo Notarbartolo, a career criminal who posed as a diamond merchant to case the diamond center, and several of his compatriots. During the trial, Notarbartolo denied being the mastermind and argued the value was a fraction of what was claimed. He served 5 years of his 10 years sentence, was paroled, and then some years later violated the parole and returned to prison to finish the sentence. Little of loot was ever found. The scale and skill of the heist captured imaginations. The Antwerp heist was featured on the first episode of The History Channel's “History's...

This is Going to the Dogs by Bonnar SpringDELIBERATIONMamie may have figured out what's going on but Evan definitely needs our help to unpack this dognapping caper for his grandfather, Gordon. Here are the suspects in the order we met them:Bonnie, the daily housekeeper with a dog of her ownLou, the down on his luck musician turned chauffeur and handy manPaul, the cousin with a checkered pastJanice Dobosh, the real estate agent who swears she had an appointmentABOUT Bonnar SpringBonnar Spring writes international thrillers and short stories with morally ambiguous protagonists.

Bonnar's short fiction has won both the AlBlanchard and Derringer Awards. She hosts the Crime Wave podcast, part of the Authors on the Air Radio Network.ABOUT DognappingDognapping has been a real thing for a long while. In Victorian times, organized gangs of dognappers stalked and stole pets from the wealthy, which wasn't categorized as a crime. The crime website Crime Reads has a story of poet Elizabeth Barrett's beloved dog Flush, who was dognapped three times. More recently, in February 2021, a dognapping turned vicious when the man walking Lady Gaga's three French Bulldogs was shot to acquire the dogs. One pup fled but the other two were captured and taken. The man, Ryan Fisher, was shot in the chest. He survived but lost a lung and, not to mention to psychological damage. Lady Gaga offered a $500,000, to questions asked reward and the dogs were returned two days later. But questions were asked and the apparent hero, Jennifer McBride, was arrested with four others and charged with attempted murder. James Jackson was sentenced to 21 years for the attempted murder of Fisher.McBride pled the charge down to receiving stolen property and was sentenced to two years' probation. But that wasn't enough for McBride, who then sued Lady Gaga for the $500,000 reward plus $1.5 mil in damages. Lady Gaga stood her ground and the judge sided with her, finding that McBride could not benefit from the wrongdoing but seeking to enforce the contract.https://crimereads.com/dognapping/https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-67003283WRAP UPThat wraps this episode of Mysteries to Die For.

For many years, Penn State was just one college of many with a powerful football program. And then not too long ago, it suddenly became the epicenter of a whole lot of outrage. Screaming students - angry that Joe Paterno, their iconic coach - the "winning-est" college coach ever - had been summarily fired. And then the parents, the politicians, the pundits, enraged as they should be, at allegations of young lives ruined by sexual abuse. Allegedly by a coach who used a locker room as a place to horribly exploit young boys. All of which has caused me to ask this question, "So what is it that enrages you, Ron? Or should?" I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Your Things to Die For." My friend Bob asks, "What are your 'things to die for'?" He confesses that his list has changed. It used to be a list of legalistic "don'ts" that he thought were the causes worth fighting for. Not anymore. God has broken his heart for people who are going to hell instead of people who are breaking the rules. And he's outraged over the devil enslaving and damning people God created and Jesus died for. There's something about us that gets all uptight about things that matter a little and largely complacent about things that break and even enrage the heart of God. We can really get up a head of steam about worship music, or liberals, or Christians who are "different," or the way the culture's going downhill. But then we can be strangely unmoved by young girls who suddenly disappear into the snake pit of sexual slavery. Or children who cry every night for food that never comes. A woman living with a man she thought loved her, and tonight fearing for her life. Innocent kids, unspeakably twisted and scarred by someone who abuses them for their own gratification. Our word for today from the Word of God talks about these outrages in Romans 1:18 - outrages that provoke what the Bible calls the "wrath of God (which) is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men." Things He can't stand; He can't stand for the victimizing of any person He created in His holy image. Proverbs says, "He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God" (Proverbs 14:31). God talks about defending the cause of the poor and the needy and then He asks probingly, "Is not this what it means to know Me?" (Jeremiah 22:16). Above all, the Bible says, "He is not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9). And we're surrounded by people who are one heartbeat away from perishing forever and ever, because no one told them about the Savior who perished so they wouldn't have to. God accepts no excuse for failing to (as the Bible says) "rescue those being led away to death...If you say, 'But we knew nothing about this,' does not He who weighs the heart perceive it...Will He not repay each person according to what he has done?" (Proverbs 24:11-12). God is not deaf to the shattered lives, the anguished cries of a world that sin has devastated. God says today as He said to Moses in Exodus, "I have heard them crying out...I am concerned about their suffering...So I have come down to rescue them." Oh good! God's going to do something about all this hurt and lostness. Yes He is, and He has a plan. Listen to the next verse, "So, now, go. I am sending you" (Exodus 3:7-10). So, are the things you'll "die for" the things Jesus died for?

On January 13, 1995 Detectives in Knoxville, TN arrived at a murder scene in Tyson Park. This was unlike anything they had ever seen before. In the dirt leading up to the victim's body they found finger marks, which implied the victim had been physically dragged to a more remote location while fighting desperately to save her life. Her clothes were strewn up in the surrounding trees, covered in blood, and she had been beaten horrifically and slashed with what they assumed as a knife. She had a deep impact wound on the left side of her head and it appeared that brain matter was visible.  This was a brutal murder and they knew it would rock the community of Knoxville, especially because the victim was college aged, and they had many universities and post high school programs located around them. But what the detectives feared far more than fielding phone calls from concerned parents was the fact that, in the midst of America's ‘Satanic Panic', their victim had a pentagram carved into her chest.  Sponsors: IQBAR To get your 20% off, just text TCC to 64-000 Acorns Head to acorns.com/tcc or download the Acorns app to start saving and investing for your future today!

Dr. Harms transforms the often daunting task of end-of-life planning into a compassionate journey, helping people navigate the emotional aspects of planning personal finances. She has witnessed death up close many times throughout her life, including the loss of her mother and her son to suicide and, eventually, her husband from a broken heart after their son's death. These events shaped her views on finding meaning in grief, and she set out on a mission to end the stigma around end-of-life planning. As a fourth quarter coach and international speaker specializing in grief, conflict resolution, and legacy planning, Dr. Harms goes beyond spreadsheets to help clients — often with the aid of financial planners — arrange their personal finances and estates with care and empathy, turning what can be a difficult process into a meaningful experience for families. Her book Are You Ready? How to Build a Legacy to Die For talks about how to build a legacy that lives on after your death. It was a #1 bestseller on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and has won numerous awards, including being named the most inspirational book of 2024 by the Pacific Book Awards.

This is Episode 24, a maze is the featured game. This is Amazed to Death: (Not) a Documentary by TG Wolff, an adaptation of MURDER IN THE MAZE by J.J. ConningtonAbout MURDER IN THE MAZE by J. J. ConningtonJ.J. Connington was the pen name of Alfred Walter Stewart. He was a British chemist and part-time novelist who was born in 1880 and died in 1947. As a chemist, he had a highly successful career. He earned his doctorate of science degree from Glasgow University in 1907. A year later, he wrote a textbook on organic chemistry that provide to be popular and went on to write a total of four books on advanced chemistry topics.Stewart is credited with 26 novels, many of them detective novels. MURDER IN THE MAZE was the first of 17 Chief Constable Sir Clinton Driffield mystery. Published in 1927, it is now available in the public domain through Project Gutenberg.ABOUT MAZESAccording to Smithsonian Magazine, mazes have been around for thousands of years. They can be made out of anything that provides a barrier – hedges, corn, mirrors, wood – and change in size and complexity to suit the space and the designer. Mazes began as labyrinths, which are single paths meant as a journey, not a puzzle. You couldn't get lost as your walked from one end to the other. At least some of these had spiritual meaning, a serene path to walk as you contemplated the meaning of life. Sometime during the middle ages – a long period between the fall of Rome in 476 and the start of the Renaissance between 1400 and 1450 – labyrinths evolved to be amusements, which qualifies them as games to us! England has a long tradition of mazes and the website reports over 125 are open to the public. In Indiana, Fall isn't Fall without corn mazes and followed by some hot apple cider.https://www.smithsonianmag.com/travel/winding-history-maze-180951998/ WRAP UPThat wraps this episode of Mysteries to Die For.

This is Episode 23, rock, paper, scissors is the featured game. This is Rock, Paper, Scissors, Shoot by Jack WolffWhen you listen to the podcast, you'll hear us say this was episode 24. We were wrong. It's 23. Oh well. ENJOY!DELIBERATIONDetective Connolly is in over his head more than usual. If he doesn't get this right, some innocent heads will be squashed. Let's review who was in the room with the late Mr. Staniel Purquees:Anne Taller, the bling loving accountant;Cragly Bioth, the former British Army sharpshooter turned chef;Dion Mooster, the informant for the FBI who mostly informed for Stan; andTimothy Boberts, the drug runner with a bleeding problem.Now let's look at the facts Connolly has unearthed:Staniel Purquees, the king of fungus corn, died in his mansion named Mt. Eternity, surrounded by his faithful employees.At the time the lights went out, Cragly and Stan were playing pool. Tim was standing in a corner by himself, sucking up a head injury. Anne and Dion were sitting on the couches.When the lights went out, someone retrieved the murder weapon hidden behind the only askew picture frame and shot Stan. Berthrew entered immediately, covering his employer's body with his coat.Anne lived at Mt. Eternity doing her work as accountant with the shaky internet service. It was so unreliable she'd taken to writing letters to her sick mother.Cragly also lived at Mt. Eternity, working as the chef. The ex-army sharpshooter turned his knives to culinary purposes after rampaging the world in search of his son's killers.Dion stayed close to Stanial, a necessary part of snooping for the FBI and counter snooping for Stan.Timothy traveled, distributed Stan's more exclusive products across the mountain states and Florida, when he had a food truck craving.Each suspect was assigned a position – rock, paper, scissors, and shoot – based on their story.Who should Connolly tag as the shooter?ABOUT Rock, Paper, ScissorsInformation on Rock, Paper, Scissors, or RPS, comes from the World Rock Paper Scissors Association (WRPSA). From the official history of RPS, we learn that the game was originally mentioned in a chinese book written during the Ming dynasty, which is the period of 206 BC to 220 AD). The hand game was created in China and traveled to Japan, where they gained popularity. One version used a frog (thumb), who was defeated by the slug (pinkie finger), who was defeated by the snake (index finger), who completed the circle by losing to the frog. In the 17th century, the familiar rock, paper, and scissors were incorporated and grew in popularity. By the early 20th century, the game had spread wider, including to the US. The history names of RPS in Chinese and Japanese were beyond my ability to pronounce, so I encourage you to check out the WRPSA website and maybe sign...
