On July 15, 1976, a group of 26 children aged 5 to 14, along with their school bus driver Ed Ray, embarked on a summer outing to the local swimming pool at Chowchilla, California. However, things started to go awry when the children failed to return home that evening, and what made things worse, was that police found the school bus abandoned in a ditch just a few hours later.

Episode 303: The Chowchilla school bus hijacking and kidnapping, a notorious case that occurred in 1976, involved the abduction of a school bus carrying 26 children, nineteen girls and seven boys, ages 5 to 14, and their driver, Frank Edward ‘Ed' Ray, who was 55. It was orchestrated by three young men from affluent families — brothers Richard Schoenfeld, 22, James Schoenfeld, 24, and their friend Frederick Newhall Woods IV, also twenty-four. The crime was motivated by a desire for ransom money and as a cure for their boredom. The kidnappers hid the bus and took its occupants to a buried truck trailer in a quarry in Livermore, California, intending to demand $5 million for their release. Remarkably, led by Ed Ray and Michael Marshall, 14, one of the older children, the victims managed to escape without any ransom being paid. Even though they all made it out alive, the victims suffered psychological scars that changed their lives and persist to the present day. This was the largest kidnapping in U.S. history, and it has a Canadian connection. After their hostages escaped, all three kidnappers went into hiding but were eventually apprehended and convicted, although one of the suspects, the mastermind behind the kidnapping, Frederick Woods, fled to Vancouver, British Columbia, before being arrested by the RCMP.

It's that time of the month! That's right... it's our August Freestyle! Pam: Betty June Binnicker and Mary Emma Thames were on the hunt for some mayflowers in March of 1944 in the small town of Alcolu, South Carolina. When they came across a boy named George Stinney Jr and his sister, Amie, they asked them if they knew where they could find any, to everyone's surprise, that would be the last time the girls would be seen alive... allegedly. In 1944 in the south, things weren't great for POC. So when George, a black boy, heard of the girls disappearance and told authorities that he had seen them earlier in the day, police were quick to arrest him... listen along as I tell you about this gross miscarriage of justice and the way George's name was cleared many years later. Ronda: Chowchilla, California- home of the largest kidnapping for ransom in United States history. In 1976, an entire school bus was taken hostage and its occupants were buried alive. The driver of the bus, Ed Ray, along with the 26 children in his charge, managed to escape their underground tomb after having been missing for 36 hours. The entire nation was on red alert. Certainly the kidnappers would have reached out… but they fell asleep…!!!

On this episode of the Sofa King Podcast, we talk about a strange case of True Crime known as the Chowchilla Bus Kidnapping. In 1976, three men (Frederick Woods, James Schoenfeld, and Richard Schoenfeld) did the unthinkable. As bus driver Ed Ray was driving 26 children back from a pool outing, the kidnappers boarded their school bus and held them at gunpoint. Then, the children and Ray were forced to endure an 11 hour claustrophobic bus ride and were dumped into a buried moving truck for 16 hours. Everyone from the media to the FBI swarmed the town. So, what did it take for them to escape? Were any of them harmed? How did all the victims end up in a prison? Why weren't the kidnappers ever able to ask for their ransom demand? Listen, laugh, learn.

Hey Queerdos! We're at Episode 21! That's bonkers to Miss and Kevin. Thank you so very much for listening! For this week's episode, Miss's True Crime tale is about the Chowchilla Kidnappings, one of the country's largest ransomed mass-kidnappings. In 1976, 3 assailants abducted a central California school bus full of children ages 5 to 14 and the bus driver, Ed Ray. They were driven around for 11 straight hours, then buried alive in a makeshift bunker. The ending is as pleasant as an ending could go all things considered. Then for Kevin's Spoopy Story, he takes listeners to Riverside, CA in 1994 with the mysterious case of Gloria Ramirez, the Toxic Lady! In a few short minutes, her frantic ER visit leaves 23 hospital staff stricken, passed out, hospitalized, or worse. No one hypothesis explaining the events has all of the answers. We may never really know what happened that night. Source notes found at www.creepyinqueeriespod.com. Follow us on Instagram @CreepyInQueeriesPod. We've joined Facebook!
