Joseph McStay, his wife Summer, and their two young sons went missing in February 2010. Their bodies were found in the California desert three years later.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murders of the McStay family. The family of four was thriving in California at the time that they went missing. Several things led the authorities to believe they had walked across the border into Mexico.

But Merritt wasn't the only one with a motive and who had evidence pointing in their direction.

The McStay Family Murders

On the morning of September 16th, 2016, Todd Kendhammer called 911 to report that his wife, Barbara, had been seriously injured in an accident. He claimed a pipe fell off a passing truck, flew through their windshield, and hit Barbara, causing fatal injuries. Investigators didn’t think his story added up. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Todd Kendhammer and the death of his wife, Barbara. Investigators became suspicious of Todd very early on. Surveillance video captured the Kendhammer vehicle, but not the truck passing in the opposite direction. A witness said they saw the call just minutes before the 911 call was made, and there was no damage to the windshield.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Antolin Garcia-Torres. Even as the evidence began mounting against him, Antolin maintained his innocence.

Angelika Graswald was accused of killing her fiancé during a 2015 kayaking trip on the Hudson River. Prosecutors argued that she wanted out of the relationship, so she intentionally removed the kayak’s drain plug, which contributed to its subsequent capsizing and her fiancé’s drowning. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the case of Angelika Graswald. She made numerous incriminating statements, even going so far as to say she wanted her fiancé dead. The trial came down to the prosecution's theory against the defense's testing of the theories and the possibilities of how things may have happened that day.

Steven Jones was a freshman at Northern Arizona University. In October 2015, he was involved in a confrontation that turned violent. It ended with Steven killing another NAU student and injuring three more. Steven claimed he acted in self-defense because he feared for his life, while prosecutors argued he shot the students in a premeditated rampage because his pride was hurt. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Steven Jones. There were conflicting stories on each side, which made this case very tough for investigators. Was Steven Jones justified in his actions because he was fearful for his life, or did he commit cold-blooded murder?

In less than five years, Bill Harrison, his wife Bridget, and their son Caleb all died in the same home. The first death was ruled natural, the second suspicious, but the third was immediately declared a homicide. The police looked to Caleb’s ex-wife, Melissa Merritt, who was in the middle of a custody battle with Caleb and his parents. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Melissa Merritt. The police zeroed in not only on Melissa but also on her boyfriend, Christopher Fattore. As they untangled a web of deceit, one of the biggest questions that arose was how much culpability each person bore.
