Angriest Serial Killer Around - Chester, Pennsylvania
This week, in Chester, Pennsylvania, a young woman, who happens to be a college athlete, disappears into the night, after leaving a bar. Her car is found, by the side of the road, door open & radio on, but her terribly brutalized body isn't found until the next day, with strange burns & other awful outcomes. After clearing a very guilty looking suspect, another, even guiltier looking man is found. His past makes it obvious that he's capable of such horrors. What he tells a cellmate is incredibly cold. Will it be enough to convict?? Along the way, we find out that you shouldn't build on ancient Indian burial grounds, that "no body" doesn't equal "no grand jury indictment", and that you shouldn't give the mother of one of your victims a double middle finger, while in court!!

Bigfoot Murder Conspiracy - Allen, Oklahoma
This week, in Allen, Oklahoma, when two old friends decide to spend the day "noodling" (pulling fish from a mud hole, using only your hand), the day takes a sideways turn, when mystical forces intervene, specifically, Bigfoot. At least that's what the surviving friend claims. He saysd he only killed, so he could avoid being the victim of a conspiracy between his friend, the US Army, ancient natives, and a family of Bigfeet! But did he just use a bit too much "breakfast meth"?? Along the way, we find out that Oklahoma loves pickles, that you have to be on some kind of intoxicant to want to noodle, and that when you kill a man, in front of Bigfoot, it lets Bigfoot know that you mean business!!

This week, in Quincy, Illinois, when a "perfect couple" begin divorce proceedings, things are anything but perfect. They go back & forth with accusations & demands. This continues, until one of them is found, brutally murdered, in their own home.
