When 58-year-old Roger “Fred” Farmer told his family he was heading out for a hunting trip in late 2019, no one questioned it—he was an outdoorsman, a routine guy. But weeks passed with only a few strange text messages from Fred, and his loved ones began to sense that something wasn’t right. He wasn’t returning calls. He missed the holidays. And those texts? They didn’t sound like him at all. As Fred’s family pushed for answers, investigators began peeling back layers of a story that di...
If you havent yet, listen to part 1 first, then join us here for part 2 of 2. A man crosses borders in fear. Changes plans without warning. Trusts no one. And leaves behind a trail that still doesn’t make sense nearly thirty years later. In Part Two of the Blair Adams case, we step into the questions that investigators have been trying to answer since 1996. What do the forensic details actually tell us? What theories have survived decades of scrutiny? And is this a case of someone runni...
Blair Adams was a 31-year-old construction foreman from British Columbia. By all accounts, he was responsible, hardworking, and grounded. Until suddenly… he wasn’t. In the summer of 1996, Blair began telling friends and family that someone was trying to kill him. He withdrew his savings. He emptied his safe deposit box. He packed cash, gold, and jewelry into a fanny pack. And then he ran — across borders, across time zones, across an entire continent — as if outrunning an invisible threat. Da...
In 2008, a young real estate agent in Victoria, British Columbia, received what should have been a career-defining opportunity: a million-dollar home showing for new clients eager to buy. Instead, it became one of Canada’s most haunting unsolved murders. After a series of calls from a woman with a foreign accent, Lindsay agreed to show a vacant luxury home to a couple she had never met. She told people in her life something about the situation felt off. She took precautions. She tried to be c...
Dorothy Jane Scott was a 32-year-old single mom — steady, devoted, and the kind of person who wouldn’t think twice about helping someone in trouble. But in the months leading up to her disappearance, Dorothy started receiving anonymous phone calls that didn’t sound like a prank… they sounded like a warning. The caller knew her routines. What she wore. Where she’d been. And he made it clear he wasn’t going away. Then, after a late-night trip to the hospital with coworkers, Dorothy stepped into...
The murder of Missy Bevers is one of the most haunting unsolved cases in Texas — not just because it happened inside a church before dawn, but because the suspect was caught on camera… and still has never been identified. On April 18, 2016, Missy arrived at Creekside Church of Christ in Midlothian to prepare for her early morning workout class. Later, students arrived to find police tape, broken glass, and a crime scene that made no sense. Surveillance footage shows an unknown person in tacti...
This is part two of the Crystal Rogers Case, if you haven't listened to part one, do that first. Years after Crystal Rogers vanished, the case remained cold—until the FBI descended on Bardstown with dozens of search warrants and a mission to find the truth. What followed unraveled a hidden conspiracy: secret phone calls, a burned-out car, grand jury testimony, and a trail that pointed directly to the people closest to Crystal. With explosive courtroom revelations, long-awaited arr...
When 35-year-old Crystal Rogers vanished over Fourth of July weekend in 2015, her abandoned car—with her phone and purse still inside—was the only clue left behind. As her family launched a desperate search, suspicion quickly turned to the man she lived with: Brooks Houck, the father of her youngest child. But what followed would expose a tangled web of lies, silence, and fear that gripped the small town of Bardstown, Kentucky. And just as her loved ones refused to give up, a seco...
On the morning of January 24, 2006, Jennifer Kesse didn’t show up for work. Her phone went straight to voicemail. Her car was missing. And within hours, her life — and her case — would become frozen in time. What followed was an investigation filled with unsettling contradictions: security footage that captured a suspect but hid their identity, evidence that was abundant yet inconclusive, and early missteps that may have cost investigators their best chance at answers. Jennifer didn’t vanish ...
On the morning of December 21st, 1992, 25-year-old schoolteacher Christy Mirack never arrived to her class. What followed would become one of Lancaster County’s most haunting cold cases — a violent crime with no suspects, no motive, and no answers for over two decades. In this episode, we revisit the life of Christy Mirack — a passionate educator with a bright future — and the devastating timeline of her murder. We trace the case from the quiet panic of that December morning through years of ...
This week, Crime Clueless is taking a brief holiday pause.

As we close out the year, we’re reflecting on why these cases matter, acknowledging the families still waiting for answers, and ex...
Drew Peterson had a story—and it never changed. Stacy ran off. She left her kids. She’ll turn up. But behind closed doors, a very different narrative was unraveling. In Part Two, we track the unraveling cover-up, the blue barrel tip, the reopened investigation into Kathleen Savio’s death, and the bold legal strategy that let two murdered women speak from beyond the grave. Featuring courtroom drama, forensic revelations, and Drew’s final outburst before sentencing, this episode clo...

Part One traces the twisted path to the 2007 disappearance of 23-year-old Stacy Peterson. From her troubled childhood to her whirlwind relationship with Bolingbrook police sergeant Drew Peterson, a man twice her age and with a long history of control, manipulation, and escalating abuse. We follow the timeline through Drew’s string of marriages, the suspicious 2004 bathtu...
Trigger warning, this episode contains extensive discussion on suicide. When 21-year-old artist Molly Young was found dead from a gunshot wound in her ex-boyfriend’s bedroom in Carbondale, Illinois, the explanation seemed to arrive before investigators did: “She just committed suicide.” But nothing about the scene — or the timeline — ever truly added up. No fingerprints on the gun. No gunshot residue on anyone in the apartment. Fresh scratches on Molly’s ex. A 4-hour delay before 911 wa...

On a sunny morning in June 1991, Penny Bell left her beautiful home in Buckinghamshire and told the builders she was late for an appointment. She never came back. Just a couple of hours later, she was found brutally stabbed more than fifty times inside her powder blue Jaguar — parked in broad daylight, in a busy West London car park. No weapon found. Purse left in the car. No witnesses who could stop it. And the £8,500 Penny withdrew just days before? Gone, without a trace. This week, we dig ...
A respected attorney in Texas sets his VCR to record the Super Bowl… and vanishes. A day later, a John Doe is found dead over 1,600 miles away on a desolate Washington highway—no ID, no car, and dressed in clothes that weren’t his. For eleven years, no one connects the two. In this episode, we dive into the bizarre disappearance of David Glenn Lewis, a man whose story defies logic at every turn. From the eerie timeline in Amarillo, Texas, to the chilling clues found in Yakima County, no...
On the early morning of June 3, 2011, 20-year-old Indiana University student Lauren Spierer walked out of a friend’s apartment barefoot — leaving behind her phone, shoes, and purse — and vanished somewhere between College Avenue and her apartment just three blocks away. What followed was one of the most exhaustive missing person investigations in college-town history: thousands of tips, national headlines, a nine-day landfill search, and still... no answers. In this episode of Crime Clueless,...
