On Feb. 23, 2020, 6-year-old Joseph “Jo-Jo” King III was found unresponsive at home with his stepfather. The initial explanation was simple: he had accidentally suffocated inside a toy chest. But the toy chest was not airtight. Parts of the scene were wet. And the autopsy was later amended to include “concern for possible homicidal drowning.” Still, the manner of death remains undetermined. Jo-Jo’s stepfather is in prison for abusing him less than a year before his death, but no one has been charged in connection with how he died. So what really happened inside that house?   Head over to our Crime Junkie YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lF910Rvjcw You can learn more about The Good segment and even submit a story of your own by visiting The Good page on our website!

In July 2015, Mary Yoder, a healthy 60-year-old chiropractor, went to work as usual. Later that day, she began feeling sick. Within 48 hours, she was dead. At first, her sudden decline seemed like a medical mystery. But investigators soon uncovered evidence of poisoning, launching a murder investigation that divided her family and the community. What appeared to be a clear path forward quickly grew more complicated. Detectives uncovered a digital trail they believed tied office manager Katie Conley to the purchase of the poison, setting off a high-stakes legal battle and creating new rifts among those closest to Mary. As people pointed fingers and different theories took hold, the case only grew more complicated, leaving questions about what really happened.   Head over to our Crime Junkie YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWQS_gBiCm0 Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

In the summer of 2015, Mary Yoder, a healthy 60-year-old chiropractor, went to work as usual. Later that day, she began feeling sick. Within two days, she was dead.

2026-03-0901:08:1710

In the 1980s and early 1990s, a serial predator targeted young girls in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. He wore a mask and left little evidence behind. Investigators described him as calm and calculating, earning him the nickname, “Mr. Cruel.” More than three decades later, he has never been caught. But continued reporting by crime journalists and renewed hope from crime junkies have kept the case in the spotlight, fueling hope that his identity may one day be revealed.   Head over to our Crime Junkie YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhLXyjS30CI Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

In 1981, a Harvard graduate student vanished after stepping out of Logan Airport the night after Thanksgiving. As investigators searched for answers, they focused on a suspect connected to another murder – a woman who was killed just two years earlier. He was convicted in one case and widely believed responsible for the other. But after reviewing thousands of pages of records, we found gaps that raise difficult questions: Was the wrong man blamed? And is the real killer still out there?    Head over to our Crime Junkie YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfb_-VeKeqQ Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

Before dawn on July 4, 1997, Bonnie Lee Schultz was driving home after a late night out with friends. She was never seen again. For nearly 30 years, Indianapolis investigators suspected her husband’s involvement in her disappearance, but with no sign of Bonnie or her car, the case went cold. Could detectives have overlooked an unidentified predator who targeted her? If you have any information about Bonnie’s disappearance or her missing vehicle, contact the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department at 317-327-6160 or email us at tips@audiochuck.com. Head over to our Crime Junkie YouTube channel to WATCH this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAUv-r8JWY8 Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

hi Ashley. I recently found your podcast on castbox, I'm Iranian & before these 45 days internet blackout in Iran I was addicted to true crimes podcasts in Farsi. just wanted to thank you for following cold cases and trying to find answers for the families. When it comes to humanity, nationality doesn't matter. I hope this pointless war ends soon. And I hope that one day the people of Iran will be free from the Islamic regime.

David probably had access to medical scrubs, gowns, and shoe coverings that would eliminate the blood transfer. They also wouldn’t be worried about the noise of drawers and cabinet being rummaged through if he was still home…

These b****** are so annoying. They always wanna complain about the government. Whenever Trump is President. Iran changed a death to America for 47 years. We spent more on the ukraine russia , war , and these b****** were silent. It is repeat the same propaganda that they were told to repeat. Crime was at its lowest point in twenty twenty five , with but they never say anything of that. They complain about tax money , but never complain about the fraud.

I love Crime Junkie for diving into mysteries! It reminds me of how fun it is to transform things, like using an image to cartoon (https://aicartoongenerator.io) tool to turn photos into cool avatars for my profiles. Thanks for sharing!

This sounds like a must-listen for true crime fans! The way the show dives into both well-known and lesser-known cases really keeps things fresh and engaging. Having a consistent release every Monday is also a great touch—it gives listeners something to look forward to each week. Ashley Flowers and Brit Prawat bring a compelling storytelling style that makes each case feel immersive and thought-provoking. It’s also great to see a focus on community, justice, and giving attention to stories that deserve to be heard. Definitely a podcast that keeps you hooked from start to finish! and finally kindly check this: https://trionova.in/

Do we know she went running?? Did the gate attendant actually see her?? Was she actually in the photos?? I'm sorry, I'm going with the internet here. I don't think she ever even made it to the campsite. I think her friends know more.

Is there any way that the 'job' was to meet him at the mall? And that's why she said she had to return earrings, in case someone saw her there? Too bad it was so long ago because there could be phone or video records that are now lost.

Did they not do gunshot residue testing on her hands or his hands? I know it was the next day for him, but still, if it did show anything (when he said he wasn't there), that would be what they call a clue. And just something to add, just because he wasn't crying doesn't mean he did it. I was absolutely heartbroken when my dog died, but I was in shock, and I didn't shed a tear. I just sat there.

I am listening to Body Bags and they are doing this story and their telling is very different. Cheryl is found in the car. There is no extensive search. Who is telling the correct story? Maybe talk to Joseph Scott Morgan at Crimecon.

I know I’m way late, but did they ever investigate a potential connect to the money pickup service they used? Like maybe the perpetrators had insider information telling them it was the bowling alley’s day for a deposit.

I love finding new ways to enjoy podcasts, and this app sounds perfect for listening on the go. Speaking of creative content, have you checked out AnividAI ? It's a cool platform for building original characters with images and videos, which could be fun for podcast creators too!

what do u expect from an institution that isn't government controlled? This just makes me sick. Child services is supposed to protect children. They don't mess w two parent households, but they like be to mess w the single ones. This system is set up for the parent to fail. Child services NEEDS and MUST get a makeover. It's just a place they put new social workers who have no idea what they're doing or they just don't care. I could go on, but I won't. I have personal feelings on child services.

For visualizing true crime timelines or evidence, tools like paper-banana.app and their image editor at fireredimage can be really helpful.
