Season 2: Episode 8 – The Tip

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 13:39 — 15.5MB) | Embed

This is a shorter than usual episode that strictly goes over a very strange tip I received while researching this case.

Because I am not sure if this is or is not related to the murder, I did not want to add this information to a regular episode, so I did it as a stand-alone.

I am hoping to get more locals who might have seen it to come forward.

If you have any information about this sighting, please contact me at the:
