105. The Murder of Lisa Knoefel

11/13/23 • 52 min

On November 16th, 2012 a dispatcher would pick up a 911 emergency call in Lake County, Ohio and everything that happened after that call was picked up would take everyone that came into contact with the case by surprise. On the other end of the line was a young girl who was in hysterics as she screamed into the phone and tried to express what was going on in her home. Finally, the dispatcher was able to deduct that the young girl on the phone was telling her that someone was killing her mom. As the case unravelled there would be surprise after surprise and heartbreak after heartbreak. One of the worst things in the world that we can look at in the realm of true crime is cases like this one when a parent succumbs to a child. This murder was gruesome and the details continued to come out long after the crime and scene were dealt with.

104. The Disappearance of Brandon Swanson

One thing that is common across true crime stories, especially those that have to do with missing people, is that there are often complaints about how the police took charge of a case and even how they treated the people reporting their loved one as missing. It is a sad reality, as we have covered here on the podcast, that certain things like race, class and gender can make a difference on how a missing person’s case is looked at and how much manpower is put into the investigation. This week we are going to talk about a case that showed the alleged ineptitude of the police when an adult male was reported missing and the way that that family stepped up in a big way to push for legislative changes so that others would not have to go through what they had been put through.

106. Canada’s First Suicide Bomber: The Story of The Kenora Bomber

Many times in the past we have covered cases of missing people and we have covered cases of victims who were not identified after years had gone by. This week we are going to cover something a little bit different. One of Canada’s longest standing mysteries encircles the case of Canada’s first ever suicide bomber in Kenora, Ontario. The man entered the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce with the intent to rob the bank and a series of circumstances led to a sudden death when the bomb detonated and the entire thing was witnessed by many people who had arrived at the scene to watch the action. Who was the man that robbed the bank that day and lost his life in the streets of Kenora? Fifty years later nobody knows.
