A homicide “clearance” means a case has been solved by arrest or exceptional circumstances. When clearance rates decline, it means more families are left waiting for answers, and more cases risk becoming cold.

Cases don’t disappear. They remain open, and they deserve attention.

Human Remains Found in Ridley Creek State Park, Police Investigating

Authorities are investigating after human remains were discovered Friday inside Ridley Creek State Park in Delaware County.

According to officials, Pennsylvania State Police and Upper Providence Township Police responded to a 911 call around 12:30 p.m. on March 6 after a pair of hikers reported finding what appeared to be human remains near Chapel Hill Road inside the park.

The Delaware County Medical Examiner’s Office responded to the scene and confirmed the remains were human.

At this time, the remains have not been identified, and investigators have not determined how long they may have been in the park.

Authorities also have not released details about how the person may have died or how the remains came to be in the wooded area.

State police say the investigation remains active and ongoing.

Anyone with information is encouraged to contact authorities.

Episode Drop #195 – Amy Ellison

Today, Kari and Shannon take us to Georgia as we cover the heartbreaking and still unsolved murder of Amy Ellison.

Amy was pregnant and living in Girard, Georgia with her three children when tragedy struck. Early one morning, her oldest child discovered Amy gravely injured inside their home. When police were called, the daughter reportedly told dispatchers to hurry — because the children were there alone. A moment that is absolutely devastating to imagine.

When investigators arrived, they found that Amy had been shot in the stomach. Authorities believe someone knocked on the door and, when Amy answered it, she was immediately shot.

Who would target a pregnant mother in her own home? And why?

Join us as we unpack this tragic case and search for answers.

Episode Drop #193 - Trampolines

For the past two decades, trampoline parks have been a go-to spot for family fun — affordable, energetic, and perfect for wearing out the kiddos. But have you ever stopped to wonder what’s hiding beneath the surface of all that jumping joy?

Here’s a question for you: When you enter one of these parks and are asked to sign a waiver, do you actually read it? Or do you, like many of us, scroll straight to the bottom and click “I agree”?

Let’s be honest — that waiver isn’t there for your protection. It’s there to shield the company from lawsuits. And there’s a reason for that.

Today, we’re taking a closer look at the real dangers that may be lurking at your local trampoline park. Some of the most serious cases may never see the light of day due to confidentiality agreements, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t happening.

Stay tuned — this is a conversation every parent needs to be part of. 🧠⚠️

🎙️ Patreon Episode Drop #50 – Aaron Turner & Malinda Hoagland

Today, Shannon covers two heartbreaking — and solved — cases out of Coatesville, Pennsylvania.

Aaron Turner was just a teenager when he disappeared in October 2008. Initially believed to be a runaway, concern quickly grew as days turned into weeks — and rumors began circulating that something far more sinister had happened.

In November 2008, investigators executed a search warrant at a neighbor’s home. What they uncovered inside was disturbing and gruesome. Although Aaron’s body has never been recovered, authorities gathered enough evidence to charge the neighbor and his cousin with his murder.

Malinda Hoagland was only 12 years old when her life was tragically cut short. In the early morning hours of May 4, 2024, her father, Rendell Hoagland, called 911 claiming she had been in a devastating bicycle accident. Malinda was rushed to the hospital, where medical staff fought to save her life.

It didn’t take long for professionals to realize something wasn’t right. What investigators ultimately uncovered revealed shocking cruelty and betrayal.

These cases are heavy, emotional, and difficult — but they matter.

Join Shannon as she unpacks the details, the investigation, and the pursuit of justice in both cases.

🎙️ Episode Drop #194 – Michele Evanik

When you hear Elmwood Park Zoo, you probably picture animals, laughing kids, and summer fun. You don’t picture it becoming the backdrop to a brutal discovery.
But in late June of 1978, that was the harsh reality for the Norristown community.

Join Kari, Cait, & Chelsea as we dive into a decades-old case that still leaves more questions than answers. Michele Evanik was just 17 years old — enjoying summer break, spending time with friends, going to the fair, and living the kind of carefree days teens look forward to all year.

On June 30, 1978, Michele didn’t come home.

Her parents reported her missing. Around that same time, a couple driving to a secluded area once known as “lover’s lane” near Elmwood Park made a horrifying discovery — a young woman who had been brutally beaten.

In the aftermath, Michele’s family faced unfair scrutiny from some in the community. Rumors swirled. Speculation grew — including theories involving workers from a traveling fair in town at the time. But decades later, Michele’s case remains unsolved.

We break down what happened, what was said, and what still doesn’t sit right.

Episode Drop #192 – Jessica Freeman

Join Kari & Chelsea as we cover one of the most heartbreaking cases we’ve told. A story where, time and time again, the adults — and the system — failed the children who needed protection the most.

Three siblings were removed from their mother due to parental issues, only to endure further abuse in foster care while the system looked the other way.

At just 12 years old, Jessica Freeman became pregnant. Determined to create a better life and desperate to protect her child and siblings, she made choices no child should ever have to make. Many believe those choices — including turning to s*x work — ultimately led to her untimely death.

Thirty years later, her sister is still fighting for answers.

Help us keep Jessica’s name out there. Share this episode. Talk about the case. Apply pressure. As a community, it’s the least we can do.

🎙 New Episode #191 – Bonnie & Jeremy Dages

Join Cait and Chelsea as they head to the Sunshine State for our Beyond the Keystone segment for February. This episode centers on Bonnie Dages, a young mother determined to make her way in the world. Bonnie became pregnant at a young age but stepped up to the challenge, loving her son Jeremy fiercely and unconditionally.

In her pursuit of independence, Bonnie began working as a live-in nanny for a local family. Around the same time, she entered a relationship that made her feel special—though appearances were deceiving, and this person was far from who he claimed to be. When Bonnie unexpectedly came into money, the situation took a darker turn. As the saying goes, coming into money can be dangerous if the wrong people are listening.

Not long after accessing those funds, Bonnie vanished—along with her young son, Jeremy.

Join us as we unravel this shocking and complex case, filled with suspicious characters and unanswered questions.
