 In 1965, Houston police discovered the dismembered bodies of Fred and Edwina Rogers neatly stored inside their own refrigerator. Their son, Charles, vanished without a trace and remains the only suspect.

But was this brutal crime the act of a desperate man… or part of something bigger? In this episode, we explore the mystery of the Icebox Murders and the wild conspiracy theories that followed, from CIA plots to the JFK assassination.
