Unresolved

"... we've run out of leads to work... there's just nothing coming in."

In 1995, authorities decided to suspend the investigation into the disappearance of three women from Springfield, Missouri. This decision followed years of sporadic progress, including a grand jury review in 1994 that ultimately concluded without issuing any indictments.

However, later that year, Steven Garrison - a suspect with tenuous ties to the case - stood trial for an unrelated crime. Strangely, that crime revealed an eerie connection to the Springfield Three’s mysterious disappearance in 1992...

The Springfield Three (Part Three: Steven Garrison and the Galloping Goose)

"All we could say is missing. There's no end. There's no end to that story."

In November of 1995, the Missouri Violence Crime Support Unit finalized a review of Springfield P.D.'s investigation into the disappearance of Sherrill Levitt, Suzanne Streeter, and Stacy McCall. During their analysis, they agreed with the suspect list developed by investigators, but believed they should be re-prioritized. This led investigators to shuffle up the deck and begin exploring suspects they'd earlier discounted.

First came Robert Craig Cox, a known abductor and armed robber that was connected to a number of other crimes, including a well-known series of shooting deaths from 1992 and 1993. Then came Larry DeWayne Hall, an alleged serial killer that had been terrorizing young women throughout the Midwest for over a decade, leading to his arrest in December of 1994. They, along with Suzie's brother, Bartt Streeter, found themselves under suspicion as the first decade of the case came to a close...

The Springfield Three (Part Four: No End)

"It's like those three missing girls from Springfield that still haven't been found... it's just been an ongoing thing."

On 7 June 1992, Sherrill Levitt, 47, her daughter Suzanne Streeter, 19, and Suzanne’s friend Stacy McCall, 18, vanished without a trace. Despite decades of investigation and multiple efforts to revive the case, authorities have continually faced the same dead ends encountered in the initial probe.

Over the years, the mystery has captivated amateur sleuths and online communities, who’ve developed countless theories in an attempt to explain the trio’s disappearance. Now, as the 33rd anniversary approaches, their fate remains one of the most frustratingly unsolved cases in modern history...

The Delphi Murders (Final Update)

"Do we believe that it was a random act and that there is a crazy person out there? Not necessarily. Can we rule it out? Not necessarily."

In October 2003, 20-year-old Brandon Rumbaugh and 19-year-old Lisa Gurrieri were celebrating a milestone in their relationship. The Scottsdale couple planned a romantic camping trip in the Arizona desert, intending to spend a night under the stars before returning home the next day.But when they failed to return, concern quickly turned into panic.

A search by their friends led to a grim discovery, unraveling a mystery that would haunt the community. What happened to Brandon and Lisa in the remote desert—and who, or what, was responsible?

Bumble Bee Road Murders

"At this point, I just want closure for the family... I just want to be able to bury my friend."

When 36-year-old Chip Campbell vanished from his Florida home in 2016, his life was already spiraling out of control. His house was found in disarray, his dog left outside, and his personal belongings scattered. Days later, he was last seen at a local gas station, looking disheveled and carrying backpacks that would later be recovered under mysterious circumstances. 

With ties to substance abuse, suspicious activity at his home, and a roommate with a criminal history, Chip's disappearance raises more questions than answers. Was he trying to escape his troubles, or did something more sinister happen?

This is a re-release of a 2017 episode, which features interviews with Chip's sister Lesa Kissoon as well as his friend John Claudio.

Chip Campbell (Re-Release)

"His personal details were never known to him, and he could only assume his origins based on a nameplate he had as a child."

On 24 June 1955, a Czechoslovakian State Security Patrol detained an unknown man near the Slovak-Polish border. Carrying no identification, the man communicated almost entirely through hand gestures. During interrogation, authorities would discover that he was deaf and mute, although both claims were met with a fair amount of skepticism. A comprehensive, nationwide investigation failed to turn up any sign of his identity.

Over the next twenty-six years, through many twists and turns, the man insisted that he was a Czechoslovakian citizen named Karel Novák. While authorities kept him in a constant state of surveillance and harassment, they were unable to determine where he came from...

Estrella Carrera (Update)

"... it's baffling. I've never come across a case where someone just vanished. And we have no clue, no reports of where she might be or what might have happened to her. I've not come across a case like that."

On the afternoon of Monday, 20 December 2021, three-year-old Lina Sardar Khil was playing outside of her family's apartment in San Antonio, Texas. Her mother was watching her and her younger brother as they ran around with other kids, but lost sight of Lina for what police would describe as "a short time." She was never seen again.

In the more than three years that have elapsed since her disappearance, investigators have been unable to find any trace of Lina...

Lina Sardar Khil

By 1997, Miguel Ricart had been a prisoner of the Spanish Civil Guard for over four years. He had been in their custody since January of 1993, awaiting trial for the murder of three teenage girls from Alcasser. 

Ricart would find an unlikely ally in one of the victim's parents, Fernando Garcia. Garcia wasn't interested in saving Miguel's life; rather, he was concerned that the prosecutor had developed tunnel vision on Miguel, and ignored any other potential leads or clues. 

In this episode, I focus on everything that happened after the initial police investigation, including the trial of Miguel Ricart, Fernando Garcia's partnership with an esteemed true crime author, and the theories that have cropped up in the decades since.
