For this episode we head to Mineral, Washington to discuss a series of unsolved murders in 1985.

The location of these murders is in the region of Lewis, Pierce, and Grant counties. Crime in the area is low likely because the region is isolated - primarily filled with campsites and other forested areas. But that doesn’t mean crime never happens there...

**We apologize for the feedback during this episode. We tried really hard to edit it out but I’m not an expert at editing so please forgive me.**

We partnered with Jessi and Amanda from the Cee U Next Tuesday podcast to bring you the case of Jodi Arias. Although not *technically* from the PNW (Jodi does have ties to Medford, Oregon), we couldn't pass up the opportunity to cover this case!

Part 1 covers the background of Travis Alexander (victim) and Jodi Arias (accused murderer) - huge shoutout to Jessi and Amanda for their heavy lifting with researching and presenting this part of the case!

I wrap up part 1 with opening statements from the prosecutor and Jodi's defense attorney.
