  • Locked Museum, Knitting Bag: How Dawn Vanished Overnight

    Locked Museum, Knitting Bag: How Dawn Vanished Overnight
    8 Aug 2026
    Locked Museum, Knitting Bag: How Dawn Vanished Overnight

    A locked museum, a lamp left burning, and a rust‑orange knitting bag pressed to the inside of a second‑floor window visible from the water - yet no alarm, no broken glass, and no sign of forced entry. How did Dawn Hensley end up dead inside a building that, by every recorded measure, was impossible to enter?

    In this episode, we follow the documented timeline, witness statements, patrol and alarm logs, and investigator interviews to lay out what was found at the scene and what remained unexplained. Can the gap between Dawn’s last sighting at 5:15 p.m. and the museum’s locked status at 6:02 p.m. be reconciled with the evidence left behind?

    Person: Dawn Hensley, 44
    Date: October 13-14
    Location: Maritime Museum, Portsmith Cove
    Investigator: Teresa Walker, 48, Grays Inlet County Sheriff's Office

    - Last confirmed sighting: 5:15 p.m. on October 13 at the Harbor Deli, transaction time-stamped 5:17 p.m.
    - Museum alarm log: locked at 6:02 p.m. on October 13 with no further sensor triggers until morning.
    - Discovery: body found on second floor at 6:47 a.m, on October 14 with lamp still burning.
    - Knitting bag details: rust-orange, 14-inch length of scarf with two bamboo needles threaded through live stitches; contained two skeins of wool and a grocery receipt from the previous Tuesday.
    - Key inventory: four keys (director Alan Briggs, Historical Society lockbox, cleaning company, board member Ruth Patel) all accounted for before noon on October 14 with no signs of duplication.

  • The Dry Coat on a Flooded River: How Marilyn Vanished

    The Dry Coat on a Flooded River: How Marilyn Vanished
    7 Aug 2026
    The Dry Coat on a Flooded River: How Marilyn Vanished

    A navy-blue quilted parka, size medium with a broken zipper pull, was found completely dry wedged against a pump station grate on a river that had been eleven feet deep for six days-hydrologist Ellen Marsh concluded it had been placed in the water at most two hours earlier. Who put that coat in the river the morning it was found, and why did that single detail fail to collapse the theories investigators were running?

    In this episode, we tell the story of Marilyn Stevens and the sequence of evidence, witnesses, and leads that shaped the investigation, closing on the unanswered question at the heart of the case. What does a dry coat on a flooded river-found while her body lay a quarter mile away and possessions were later discovered under a suspect’s bed-actually reveal about what happened to her?

    Person: Marilyn Stevens
    Date: February 8-11 (disappearance on February 8; coat found on February 11)
    Location: Renner Street / Crestfall River / Harwick Avenue pump station
    Age: 29
    Occupation: Billing coordinator at Crestfall Regional Medical Center

    - Marilyn left the east exit of Crestfall Regional at 5:17 PM on February 8 and boarded bus 47 at 5:24 PM.
    - She disembarked at Renner Street at 5:41 PM and was seen walking south on Renner at 5:44 PM; an ATM camera caught her at 5:45 PM.
    - Three blocks of Renner Street had no working cameras because the municipal unit had burned out the previous October and had not been replaced.
    - Gerald Pruitt found the navy-blue parka on February 11 wedged against the Harwick Avenue pump station intake screen; the river had been eleven feet deep for six days due to snowmelt.
    - Hydrologist Ellen Marsh determined the coat had been placed in the water at most two hours before it was found, not the three days investigators had been searching.

  • Locked Shed, Bluebird Mug, and the Quiet Killers of Ridler Lake

    Locked Shed, Bluebird Mug, and the Quiet Killers of Ridler Lake
    6 Aug 2026
    Locked Shed, Bluebird Mug, and the Quiet Killers of Ridler Lake

    A rinsed white ceramic mug with a painted bluebird sat handle-out on dock floats inside a locked boat shed five days after its owner disappeared - and the padlock and painted-over hasp screws were undisturbed. Whoever left the mug had apparently locked the shed from the inside and exited through a two-inch gap under a sliding water gate using a hooked rod; how did they manage that with a dead woman found later in the lake?

    In this episode, we lay out the sequence of discoveries, forensic findings, and procedural choices that shaped the inquiry. Listen to hear how a grocery list, a set of unidentified partial prints, and a forensic engineer’s measurement connect to the question of how the shed could be sealed from within yet accessed from outside.

    Person: Marilyn West
    Date missing: September 9
    Date shed discovered: September 14
    Body recovered: September 19
    Cause of death: manual strangulation

    - The mug contained a folded handwritten grocery list of seven items written in blue ballpoint.
    - The list matched items already present in Marilyn’s kitchen; "Milk" was added with different pen pressure.
    - The padlock on the shed was intact and the hasp screws were painted over and undisturbed when found.
    - Detectives found four partial right-hand fingerprints on the mug not matching local databases.
    - The sliding aluminum water gate had a two-inch gap above the lake; a hooked rod inserted from the lake side could lift the interior latch and allow the gate to lock itself from the inside.
