#278 - STM Express - He's Dead... Where's My Beer? - Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia
This week, in Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia, a terrible feud brews, within the walls of one trailer, leaving everyone around feeling quite uncomfortable. One afternoon, a backyard bbq, among friends & family ends with with drunken screaming, accusations of dirty goings on, and some amateur auto mechanic work. In the end, a very drunk party goer ends up at neighbor's house, with a statement & a question... "I think he's dead" & "You have a beer for me?", sending the whole neighborhood into chaos. In the end, the wait for a court appeal turns out to be longer than the sentence, making the whole situation completely free of competence!! Along the way, we find out that never go to a bbq, if the hosts hate each other, always keep your car hood locked, and when you kill someone, in cold blood, you shouldn't tell all the neighbors!!

#277 - Sex, Family & Wire Handcuffs - Clarence, Iowa
This week, in Clarence, Iowa, a family with some problems, like Mom is a convicted murderer, and Dad is an out of work trucker, who is having an affair with his adult step daughter, lead to seemingly inevitable circumstances, when one of them ends up on the side of a rural gravel road. Mom & Dad point the fingers at each other, but there is one witness, who can put all the pieces together. The problem is, he's only 13, and doesn't want either of his parents to go to jail. In the end, it all points at one person, being an especially cold blooded murderer!! Along the way, we find out that in Iowa, people keep their opinions to themselves, that bathroom floor sex is NEVER a good idea, especially with your stepdaughter, and blaming a murder on someone, just because they're a murderer doesn't always ring true!!

#276 - STM Express - Throw Momma In The Hole - Wolf Creek, Oregon
This week, in Wolf Creek, Oregon, a strange family situation causes some bad feelings, but seemingly nothing that would cause the horrifying, violent, and absolutely unthinkable crime that takes place. And the manner of the actual killing is unnecessarily heartless. It's almost unbelievable to investigators that these people could do this type of terrible murder, to the person it was committed upon, someone they were so incredibly close to. All the legal cases seem solid, but are we just a blink away from one of these people getting out of prison?? Along the way, we find out that Oregon takes its ghost hunting VERY seriously, that you can't always judge a book by its cover, or even the first few chapters, and that you never know when those closest to you want to make you the most dead!!

#275 - The Bad News Killers - Okarche, Oklahoma
This week, in Okarche, Oklahoma, a pleasant & picturesque family dinner is interrupted by a lost drifter, knocking at the door. This turns into a nightmare of unspeakable proportion, with death, destruction, and things that the human mind shouldn't be able to think up. From there, it turns into a multi-state crime spree, that leaves a trial of victims & more murder, in their wake. The question is, is of the killers really "the left hand of God", "the sword of vengeance", or "The Blue Angel"? Or, is he just another run of the mill awful, greedy & heartless killer?? Along the way, we find out that Oklahoma has a strange way of "celebrating" September 11, that when you leave live witnesses, it's hard to claim you weren't there, and that simply claiming to be "the left hand of God" isnt enough to excuse you from four murders!!

#274 - STM Express - The Perfect Crime - Hill City, South Dakota
This week, in Hill City, South Dakota, when bodily is found, horribly murdered, with the head & hands cut off, in a very rural area, it seems like a mystery, for the ages. Until they discover footprints, leading to some very important evidence, and an interesting person, who seems to have been leading up to this, all his life. This also leads to a seriously ridiculous interrogation, and a very unusual court outfit, that seems to do more to inspire terror, than put people at ease! All of this, and the killer still describes it as "The Perfect Crime"! Along the way, we find out that tin is a disappointment, when looking for gold, that forcing someone to witness a murder is never a wise choice, and that you should never dressed like Darth Maul, when standing trial for murder!!

#273 - Video Games Or Hitler? - Montville Township, Ohio
This week, in Montville, Ohio, an act of kindness is rewarded with an act of terrible murderous brutality. The killer seems to have been training for this moment, for his entire messed up life. All seems open and shut, with the killer brazenly sending bloody & threatening notes to everyone involved, including the victim's families & the prosecutor. In the end, the blame isn't put on a bad upbringing, or even genetics, but instead, it's placed squarely on video games. GTA III, to be exact. But instead of using this for a defense, the killer decides to praise Hitler & make more threats! Just when you think it's all over... Another, even more shocking murder pops out of nowhere!! Along the way, we find out that railroad work camp is not a privilege, that you can't blame all the world's murder on video games, and that some people just can't be fixed!!

#271 - The Devil Whispers In My Ear - North Adams, Massachusetts
This week, in North Adams, Massachusetts, the relationship of a couple deteriorates, after one of the parties decides that they would rather be with someone else. The problem is, the other person isn't quite ready to give up on the relationship. This is a a common problem, but, in this case, it ends in a very uncommon way. That may be because the murderer may just believe the house is possessed, and that the devil speaks to them, softly. The results are bloody, horrifying, and deadly! Once the courts get involved, it turns a whole new level of weird! Along the way, we find out that this town produced at least 2 jerks, that when a relationship is over, you get your air mattress & move on, and the devil will never be your codefendant!!

#270 - The Murder Parrot Speaks - Sand Lake, Michigan
This week, in Sand Lake, Michigan, a disturbingly bloody scene looks like an open, and shut case of some kind of home invasion, that left a couple dead... Until one of them is not dead, and appears to come back to life. From there, detectives have to figure out whether there is ruthless, random killer on the loose, or if it's something much more obvious. The key to cracking the mystery ends up being an 18 year old African Grey Parrot, who seems to have seen the whole thing, and can act it out, complete with voices! This is one for the ages! Along the way, we find out that Michigan is serious about their lumberjacking, that just because someone looks & acts dead, doesn't mean they're dead, and that you should never say anything that you don't want repeated, to a parrot!

This week, in Magnolia, Arkansas, a nice young lady, almost finished with her college degree, meets up with could definitely be considered the "bad boy". Not only is he older, but he's also been convicted of more crimes, than she could imagine, and was hiding out from a murder charge, when they found love. From there, they engage in a self described "Bonnie & Clyde" episode, leaving in their wake, many people, fighting for their lives, and one absolutely horrific, and near surgical attack, that can hardly be believed. But who did all the nasty stuff? The answer may surprise you! Along the way, we find out that Arkansas is serious about their steaks, that the person who holds the bloody knife, may be your eviscerating suspect, and that murderers should NEVER have theme songs!!
