In the early morning hours of July 8th, 2013, 17-year-old Molly Miller and 22-year-old Colt Haynes seemingly disappeared into thin air. The two were involved in a high-speed police chase that ended with the county sheriff telling the officers to stop the chase. The driver of the vehicle fled, leaving Molly and Colt int the backwoods of Oklahoma in the middle of the night. In an area flooded with drug production, sales, and use, many locals are believed to know exactly what happened to Molly and Colt, but no one is talking. Furthermore, some people believe that Molly was never meant to be in that car that night in the first place. More than ten years after that car chase that ended in rural Love County, Oklahoma, Colt and Molly’s friends and loved ones are still searching. Want access to our first 45 episodes? Grab em here!

In February of 2023, 41 year old Becky Bliefnick hadn’t been heard from when it was time for her to pick up her children from school.   Her ex-husband, Tim, was notified about the boys not being picked up, and he called Becky’s father, Bill, to check on her because he had sent text messages that went unanswered.  Bill arrived at Becky’s house and tragically found her in a second floor bathroom, having been shot 14 times.  It only took about two weeks for investigators to find their suspect and make an arrest.  Within three months, a guilty verdict would put him behind bars for the remainder of his life.    Want access to our first 45 episodes?

Charles Joseph Whitman, known infamously as the "Texas Tower Sniper," shocked the world on August 1, 1966, when he climbed to the top of the University of Texas Tower in Austin and opened fire on the public below. By the time his rampage was stopped, 16 people were dead and 31 others wounded. While his final act of violence and its aftermath are well-documented, the early life of Charles Whitman offers critical insights into the forces that shaped him into the man he became. Was there something in Whitman's background, his upbringing, and the pressures he faced that can provide context for his tragic descent into madness?    Want access to our first 45 episodes? Grab em here! We've made them available for free to anyone who signs up!

January 16th, 2009 was just like any other day for Linda Bonner.  She got up, went to work, and likely thought anything more about it.  Her husband, Franklin Bonner, was home, though, as he was retired from his job with the City of Chattanooga.  When Linda returned home from work that evening, she walked into something from a nightmare.  Her home was ransacked and Franklin was lying on the ground bound with duct tape and he was unresponsive.  It took nine years for any arrests to be made in the case and when the Bonner family finally thought they had justice, the conviction was reversed and the case remains open.     Want access to our first 45 episodes?

In June of 2013, 24-year-old Sarah Staudte was taken to the local hospital by her mother and younger sister. She’d been getting increasingly sick and by the time she arrived at the hospital, doctors found her to be in organ failure, nearing death. No one could figure out what was causing her sudden illness. It wasn’t long before an anonymous tip urged the Springfield Police Department to take a closer look at Diane Staudte, the mother of the family. Not only was Sarah in the ICU, Mark, her father, and Shaun, her older brother, had all died suddenly in a short period. What detectives found was beyond anything they ever could’ve imagined..   Want access to our first 45 episodes? Grab em here! We've made them available for free to anyone who signs up!

In August of 2009, Dalia Dippolito got up early one morning and went to the gym, leaving her husband, Mike at home as he was recovering from a surgery.  While at the gym, she got a call from the local Boynton Beach police saying she needed to return home immediately because something terrible had happened.  She was met with police cars everywhere and crime scene tape sectioning everything off.  Dalia was told that someone entered their home and killed Mike as he slept.  But all wasn’t as it seemed, and a tale of murder for hire played out for everyone to watch on an episode of Cops that aired in September of 2011.

Hey KQt's,  I need some time to talk to you. I wanted to let you know that Tori has left the show. We have had so much fun over the years bringing you a light true crime podcast and that won’t be changing!  While we may have a few delayed or missing over the next few weeks (it is also summer with kiddos and we just moved!) I will be continuing to release content on our regular schedule with no major gaps.  I may have special guests here and there and I hope to have all of you by my side as I find a new rhythm as a single host.  We ask that you please show respect and consideration during this transition time. We know you may have questions, but we ask that you not reach out to either of us directly. Thank you for being the BEST community in true crime.  I can’t wait to talk to you soon!

We all know the rhyme, “Lizzie Borden took an ax and gave her mother forty whacks.  When she saw what she had done, she gave her father 41,” right?  It’s something most children in America say to scare their little sister or when having a sleepover with friends before saying Bloody Mary three times in the mirror.  Despite the popularity of the rhyme and the crime, Lizzie Borden was acquitted of the murders.  To this day, people remain divided on Lizzie’s guilt, but the one thing we know for sure is that despite the murders having happened over 130 years ago, it remains in infamy.  Want access to our first 45 episodes?
