20-year-old Kristin O’Connell was beautiful, bright, and adored. In the summer of 1985, she was brutally murdered while visiting a friend out of town. In over 37 years since- her mother has fought for justice while Kristin's murder remains unsolved. In the first episode of this special mini-series, we’ll explore Kristin’s story and her case. Who was she and what brought her to a rural town, 1000 miles from home? Who were the last people to see her alive, and who would want her dead? We’re going to attempt to answer some of these questions- while also being respectful that the case is still considered an open investigation. This is Kristin’s story, told by those who are fighting for her. CALL TO ACTION Kristin’s case CAN be solved.

A warning that this episode features extremely graphic content. 23-year-old Jyoti Singh had completed her finals and was preparing for an internship to become a doctor of physiotherapy. She told her parents in December of 2012 not to worry; all of their troubles would be over soon. But one night while traveling back from a movie, Jyoti and her friend Awindra were lured onto a private bus by a group of men “looking for some fun”. The brutal violence they endured that night can only be described as pure evil.

Method & Madness - 51. Princess Doe Has A Name
play

10/25/22 • 46 min

She was unknown to those who loved her, for 40 years. It’s 1982 in Blairstown, NJ - a quaint town with an old-timey feel, its residents were rocked upon the discovery of a murder victim in the local cemetery. The lead investigator Eric Kranz said “I’ll worry about the murder later on. My main concern is finding out who she is.” He was tired of writing “Jane Doe”, so, she was named “Princess Doe”. Her autopsy revealed she was between 14 and 18 years old, and she put up a fight. The residents came together, helped fund Princess Doe’s funeral, and had a gravestone made for her. For 40 years, they left flowers and searched for her family, praying they’d learn her name. And then, in 2022, they finally got answers.

32-year-old Tim Bosma was selling a pickup truck and had posted an ad online. On May 6th, 2013 he took two potential buyers out for a test drive and never returned home. What followed was a frantic search for a beloved man, husband, and father; and quickly turned into a homicide investigation. Who would kill a man over a truck? There were no simple answers here and the more evidence that was found, the more questions asked.

One of my favorite podcasts! She works hard to tell the story the right way and has a very empathetic approach to victim's families, which put her in a class of her own. I recommend her podcast wholeheartedly!
