In the 1980s and early 1990s, a terrifying series of murders occurred connected to the so-called "Coin Shop Killer," believed to be longtime suspect Charles Thurman Sinclair. Multiple coin shop owners across several states were targeted using a chillingly consistent method: a friendly, knowledgeable customer would gain trust before returning to rob and murder the shop owners. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the "Coin Shop Killer." An interstate investigation linked the crimes at a time when cooperation between agencies was far less common than today. But there are still many unanswered questions involving these cases. Although a lot of evidence was found against Sinclair, he never made it to trail, and he took his secrets with him when he died.   You can help support the show through Patreon.

In one of the most unbelievable identity theft cases ever uncovered, William Woods lost far more than his credit score — he lost his freedom, his name, and nearly his sanity after authorities mistakenly believed he was the imposter. This week, Mike and Morf examine the shocking decades-long deception carried out by Matthew David Keirans, a man who stole another person's identity in 1988 and successfully lived as "William Woods" for more than 30 years. What began with a stolen wallet at a hot dog stand in Albuquerque eventually spiraled into fraudulent loans, wrongful imprisonment, psychiatric institutionalization, and one of the most disturbing miscarriages of justice imaginable. The real William Woods repeatedly insisted he was telling the truth — only to be dismissed as delusional, jailed during the COVID-19 pandemic, placed in solitary confinement, and forced to take psychiatric medication after courts ruled he was mentally incompetent. The case finally unraveled thanks to an Iowa detective determined to separate fact from fiction using fingerprints, records, and ultimately DNA evidence.   You can help support the show through Patreon.

In May 2004, suitcases filled with body parts were discovered around the Chesapeake Bay area. It took the police some time to identify that the remains belonged to Bill McGuire.

Melanie told the police that Bill was violent towards her and had a gambling addiction. She did file for a restraining order against Bill, which gave her story more credibility.

The Oakland County child killer was responsible for the murders of at least 4 children in Oakland County, MI, in 1976 and 1977.

Join Mike and Morf for the first part of a discussion on the Oakland County child killer. The perpetrator selected both male and female victims and dumped their bodies where they would easily be found.

Timestamp to skip intro: (5:44)In 2014, Maryland mother-of-three Catherine Hoggle had been struggling with her mental health.  Catherine had been involuntarily committed to a psychiatric facility at one point, and when she returned home, her family made care plans so that she would never be alone with her children.One evening in September 2014, Catherine convinced her father to let her take her son Jacob (2) with her to get a pizza.  A strange series of events followed, and the following morning, Troy Turner (the father of the children) discovered that Jacob AND his sister Sarah (3) were missing.Catherine told Troy that she had taken the kids to trial at a new daycare.  When Troy asked her where the daycare center was, Catherine claimed she could not remember.  No trace of either child has ever been found. Catherine would end up being indicted on murder charges in relation to her children.  This case has dragged on for over a decade due to repeated questions about Catherine's mental health and her competency to stand trial.   In December 2025, a judge ruled that Catherine is now competent to stand trial for the murder of her children.  The trial is currently scheduled to take place this year, 2026.Read our blog for the Hoggle children - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2026/01/01/where-are-sarah-and-jacob-hoggle-missing-for-over-ten-years/This episode is sponsored by: IQBAR: The New Year means a clean slate.  Time to transform frustration into fuel, and power your day with IQBAR.  To get twenty percent off all IQBAR products, text CRIME to 64-000.

On Friday, November 24th, 1989, eighteen-year-old Amanda Stavik, who went by Mandy, went for a run around 2:30 in the afternoon. Kyra, the family's German Shepherd, ran with her. This run was often a family affair, with Mandy's mother, Mary, joining on her bike. Because of the holiday, though, Mary was busy at the time, so Mandy decided to head out alone. When Kyra returned to the family home without Amanda, the family became worried. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the murder of Amanda Stavik. The family's worry quickly increased after searching for her but finding nothing. Three days after she went missing, the search for Mandy came to a sad end when she was found dead, submerged in the Nooksack River. The search for her killer took decades, and in the end, the perpetrator was someone who should have been on the radar of the police early on.   You can help support the show through Patreon.

Timestamp to skip straight to the case: (9:52) TW - suicide. Ellen was found dead in her apartment in 2011 with 20 stab wounds, including some to her back and neck.   Ellen's death was ruled a suicide and many people have argued that this ruling was incorrect.  How could someone stab themselves multiple times in the back? Ellen's parents have fought for years to have her case re-examined and their petition was granted this year.   Another medical examiner reviewed the reports and information available, and again, ruled that Ellen's death was a suicide. In this episode, we run through the new updates (including newly discovered wounds on Ellen's body).  Was Ellen murdered or was her death truly suicide? Be sure to check the timestamp to get straight to the case.

A special episode from Meg & Amy's other podcast, Campus Killings while Meg & Amy take some time off for the holidays. In this episode, we explore the 2014 disappearance and murder of Hannah Graham; an 18 year old student at University of Virginia. She vanished on September 13 of that year. A large scale search for her was conducted, which to this day, is still the largest missing persons search conducted in the state of VA. Unfortunately, nothing was found. Then, five weeks after she vanished, her body was found on an abandoned property. She had been murdered. Police had a potential suspect early on; an unknown man who was captured on surveillance cameras leaving a bar with Hannah. He was finally identified as Jesse Matthew, and when police investigated him, they discovered that he was a serial predator.

Although we are off for a holiday break, we wanted to bring you this replay episode from the Criminology vault. It's the case of Rhonda Hinson which originally aired on 237 in December, 2022.  We will be back with all new episodes starting January 3, 2026. Happy holidays!   On December 22nd, 1981, 19-year-old Rhonda Annette Hinson headed to an office Christmas party. In the early morning of the 23rd, she was found about a half mile from her home lying outside her car on the should of the road. The police determined that Rhonda had been shot by a high-powered rifle that went through her trunk, back seat, and into the driver's seat. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the baffling death of Rhonda Hinson. Witnesses came forward the descriptions of cars seen near Rhonda's car. Police had to figure out if these were people involved in Rhonda's death or people who stopped to see what was happening. What clouded the waters even more was that it was revealed that Rhonda was not supposed to come home that night, and only a few people knew of her change in plans. The police looked closely at Rhonda's boyfriend, Greg, and a friend named Mark, whose girlfriend said she saw Rhonda's sweater in his car before Rhonda was killed. That sweater was later found in Rhonda's car. 41 years later, two big questions remain. What exactly happened in the death of Rhonda Hinson, and who was involved?

In 1975, 22-year-old Judy Lord was suffocated and strangled in her Concord, NH apartment. From early on, police felt that they had a strong suspect, Ernie Gable, and even physical evidence that may help to prove it. But the case remained cold for decades. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the case of Judy Lord. The technology the authorities had at their disposal was extremely limited in 1975. In November of 2025, police finally announced that they had solved Judy Lord's murder. Many people had been suspected over the years, but technology left no doubt as to the identity of Judy's murderer.   You can help support the show through Patreon.

From 1968 to 1985, a series of lovers' lane attacks happened in Italy, leaving several dead young couples. The killer in this case has commonly been referred to as Italy's Zodiac killer, but frighteningly, this killer had far more confirmed victims than Zodiac. Join Mike and Morf for this second and last episode on the Monster of Florence. Like with Zodiac, the killer was never caught, but there are some very strong suspects, and as you'll hear, there's a mystery within a mystery, as these crimes are somehow linked to a case in which the killer was caught and went to prison.   You can help support the show through Patreon.
