Monday, April 15, 2013 stands as the most chaotic time in Boston's modern history and was the beginning of a traumatic four-day manhunt that shutdown the city.
Two home-made pressure cooker bombs went off near the finish line of the Boston Marathon twelve seconds apart, filled with enough nails and ball bearings to cause maximum damage. Three people were killed as a direct result of the explosions on Boylston Street that a...
This episode is a little different from the way I usually cover New England crime stories. I give you an update on three New England cases: two cold case murder victims were identified, and one cold case murder - the oldest unsolved murder in Vermont's history - was solved. Patricia Tucker, known since 1978 as "The Granby Girl" was found in that Massachusetts town, shot in the head. Her identity went unknown until no...
In episode 40 (the second part I promised from the unreleased episode), I share the very emotional, complex, and disturbing case of the Clancy family of Duxbury, Massachusetts. This one definitely got to me. I do talk about self harm, mental illness, domestic violent and suicide and list resources below. In January, 32-year-old nurse and mother, Lindsay Clancy, is believed to have killed her three young children - Cora, 5, Dawson,...
Ana Walshe, a 39-year-old working mother of three young boys is reported missing on January 4, 2023. But not by her husband, by her Washington, DC employer when they said she never returned to work after the New Year's holiday. A visit to her South Shore Massachusetts home in the coastal town of Cohasset sets off a string of events that leaves investigators highly suspicious of husband, Brian Walshe, and locals glued to the st...
It was a case of fetal abduction, cruelty, and murder that made international news with gory headlines like "Fetus Snatcher" and "Womb Raider" in the Summer of 2009 involving two former neighbors of a Worcester, Massachusetts apartment building. One woman in her early twenties, the other in her mid-thirties, both pregnant, both struggling. Each seemed to lean on the promise of a new baby to offer a glimmer of ho...
Part two of two. In honor of the seven people who were killed on 12/26/2000 at Edgewater Technology in Wakefield, Massachusetts. I am reposting this two-part episode about that first aired on Dec 26 + Jan 6, 2020. They were some of my earliest episodes. The Edgewater workplace rampage remains the worst mass shooting in the state's history.

In October of 2021, a five year old boy was reported missing in Merrimack, New Hampshire after he hadn't been seen for over a month. Any missing child is an emergency. Or should be. Except his mother, whose custody he had been in for just over a year, wasn't who reported him missing.
Why was Elijah Lewis even living with his mother at the time?
And why did she want him gone? This is a difficult story about vi...

Rory Gene Kesinger is called many things: an outlaw, criminal mastermind, a robber and drug dealer. She is a fugitive. We don’t truly know where she is or what’s become of her. For 49 years, she has been a mystery and a story of folklore in Massachusetts. Today I begin digging into the stories of missing, unsolved and unclaimed people of New England. Massachusetts is up...

After 48 years, Massachusetts' oldest unidentified murder victim has finally been given a name. Ruth Marie Terry was brutally murdered and left in a secluded area of Cape Code in beautiful Provincetown. Who is she? How did she get there? Who is responsible? So many questions. Very few answers.
This is an open case and anyone with information about either ...
Part three of three in the series about Gregg Smart's murder and the trial that captivated the region (and the nation) in the winter of 1991. New Hampshire TV station WMUR 9 aired the Pamela Smart trial in its entirety. It was the beginning of our true crime obsession and illustrated how the media reshapes the narrative to often tell the story they want to sell.
Court TV was born.
Gregg Smart is the forgot...
Part two in the series about Gregg Smart's murder and those who planned and carried out this plot to kill him. It's ridiculous to imagine anyone going through with such a ridiculous plan. Yet four teenagers from Seabrook, NH did at the behest of a 22 year old high school media coordinator. It is a sensational story and mesmerized the region for the better part of a year in 1990-91.
Gregg Smart is the fo...
Gregg Smart is the forgotten victim in the crime of the century - as it has been called over and over given its history of firsts. Gregg was murdered on May 1, 1990. The 24-year-old insurance broker was shot dead in his home six days before his first wedding anniversary.
At first, it looked like he'd interrupted a burglary, because that's what the killers were told to make it look like. As the investigation wore...
In honor of the 25th anniversary of the murders of Leeann Millius and Kim Farrah - murdered on September 13, 1997 at a public pond in Salem, NH. Their story stayed with because I was just like them. I was a teenager in Southern New Hampshire who did all the same kind of things they did. I think of them often and wish their families peace on these painful occasions.
Please think of them as you go about your day. They’ve been gon...
Part Two of the special episode, You’re A Good Man, Phil Hartman with Brian Mulhern - comedy writer, radio host - Providence, Rhode Island.
Listen to part one to get caught up. Thanks for listening, and thanks for enduring some of our other related topics. We talked quite a lot and, while there are some things I took out that were private to the family, some things I left in because they were relevant to our conversation ...
