  • The Watch That Sent One Woman Free-and Another to Prison

    The Watch That Sent One Woman Free-and Another to Prison
    11 Oct 2026
    The Watch That Sent One Woman Free-and Another to Prison

    Fear of a hidden error: a running wristwatch engraved "For Mara always" was found face up on a septic tank deflector three weeks after the tank was pumped dry-an object that toppled one prosecution and built another. Who placed the watch inside the tank after service, and was it a deliberate act or a single mistake that ruined lives?

    In this episode, we tell the story as the evidence unfolded: the discovery of the watch, the connection to twenty-six-year-old Mara Elgin, and how that solitary item shifted the course of investigations and trials. What does a single object reveal about who was with Mara, and who was lying?

    Person: Mara Elgin
    Date: December 28, 2016 (last contact)
    Location: Sutter Fork Lane (room rented from Eugene Simpson)
    Event: Watch found on deflector lip of septic tank on a February morning, 2017
    Person: Eugene Simpson

    - The watch's face read 7:44 and its second hand was still moving when Wendy Carlson found it.
    - The watch was twenty-two millimeters wide and engraved with four words: "For Mara always."
    - Verdant Drain Service pumped and fully vacated the septic tank on January 17, 2017, per a receipt signed by Eugene Simpson.
    - Mara Elgin was twenty-six years old, had last texted on December 28, 2016, and was reported missing by her family six weeks later.
    - Phone records show Mara and Julie Turner exchanged fourteen calls in the six weeks before Mara's disappearance.

  • The Tote Bag, The Bus Log, and the Man Who Vanished

    The Tote Bag, The Bus Log, and the Man Who Vanished
    8 Oct 2026
    The Tote Bag, The Bus Log, and the Man Who Vanished

    A woman’s tote bag sat upright in four inches of frozen water with a wallet, library card, license, and keys still inside - and seven days later divers found her body eighteen inches under the ice, thirty yards away. Who left the bag and why did the bus log show a nine-minute delay that let the bus run past her stop?

    In this episode, we walk through the timeline and the records around Jennifer Anne Ramsey’s disappearance and the trial that followed, focusing on the overlooked transit entry that may rewrite where she actually was when someone reached her. Could a nine-minute mechanical hold and an unasked bus driver change everything the prosecution relied on?

    Person: Jennifer Anne Ramsey
    Date: January 2, 2019 (last seen), January 9, 2019 (discovery)
    Location: Harlow Pond; 118 Tolland Street, Dellwood
    Case: Murder trial centered on transit log and bus driver testimony
    Person: Vernon Vogel

    - Victim age: 54 years old at time of death.
    - Tote contents: $43 in cash, a library card, a driver's license, and car keys with a foam fish float.
    - Timeline gap: Bus delayed at Waverly Avenue for 9 minutes; scheduled arrival at Tolland Street 6:44 PM, actual arrival 6:53 PM.
    - Body recovery: Located beneath 18 inches of ice, 30 yards from the tote bag, seven days after the bag was photographed.
    - Suspect history: Vernon Vogel, 41, prior conviction for aggravated stalking in 2012 with 14 months served.

  • A Glove Points at the Door: The Murder of Noreen Haskell

    A Glove Points at the Door: The Murder of Noreen Haskell
    6 Oct 2026
    A Glove Points at the Door: The Murder of Noreen Haskell

    A single men's leather work glove cuff-down, fingers pointing at the front door-found at 5:52 a.m. on December 11, 2009-became the crucible of a murder trial. The glove sat atop a half-pint canning jar with partially frozen dark red liquid; who placed it there and why would decide a jury's verdict. What did that deliberate arrangement reveal about the killer and the hours between 9 p.m. and dawn?

    In this episode, we walk through the timeline, the household clues, and the witness statements that shaped the case and the trial. You will hear how a paid caller, a broken hasp, and a volunteered confession converged-so what did those precise details prove?

    Person: Noreen Haskell
    Date: December 11, 2009
    Location: 4 Galloway Road
    Person: Robert Mitchell
    Person: Curtis Cooper

    - The glove was found cuff-down with fingers pointing toward the front door at 5:52 a.m.
    - The jar beneath the glove was a half-pint canning jar containing partially frozen dark red liquid.
    - Time of death was estimated between 10:00 and 11:00 p.m. the previous evening.
    - The back storm door had a broken hasp latch and a ceramic pot was used to prop it shut; the pot was found overturned in the mudroom.
    - Curtis Cooper walked into the sheriff’s office on December 22, 2009, and reported three non-public details: the overturned ceramic pot, a canning jar with dark contents on the counter, and a glove on the porch.
