Episode 166 Opal Weil Part 1 of 2 In January 1987, 82 year old Opal Weil was slain in her St. Petersburg, FL home. The crime scene reflected a burglary, with Opal’s wedding ring pulled off her finger. Within a week, it happened again. Octogenarian Eleanor Swift’s home, just 6 miles from Opal’s, was burgled, she was killed, and her wedding ring taken. A third victim in the same month survived, but remembered nothing. The cases, quickly connected in the eyes of the investigators, went cold, despite a large number of suspects being considered. Hairs...

Doe ID: 'Government Camp Jane Doe' Wanda Herr
DNA: ID
Episode 165 Doe ID: 'Government Camp Jane Doe' Wanda Herr In August, 1986, a human skull and some bones were found of Highway 26 near Government Camp, Oregon. There was nothing to help ID the victim, who the authorities believed was a female between the ages of 17 and 30. An expert believed that the skull had been there for as long as ten years, but some time later, that idea would be challenged. Eventually, DNA & genealogy would prove that 'Government Camp Jane Doe' was actually Wanda Ann Herr who was described as a "chronic runaway" and had last been seen by her family in...

The Denver Four Part 1 of 2
DNA: ID
Episode 164 The Denver Four Part 1 of 2 Four women were murdered in the Denver, CO area, three in 1980 and one in 1978, in crimes that remained unsolved – and unconnected – for decades. The victims had nothing in common, the circumstances varied widely. But modern DNA testing technology provided investigators with some very surprising information – and IGG tied it all together. They were looking for one man for all four murders – and those were not the sum total of his heinous crimes. Today’s episode is about one of the more depraved killers...
info_outlineEpisode 144 Angelica Ramirez
*WARNING* This episode discusses the murder of a child. Listener discretion is advised.
In 1994, ten year old Angelica Ramirez was snatched from a swap meet in Visalia, CA. Clues at the scene confirmed the worst fears of her mother, and the investigators. Angelica’s body was found two days later, more than 40 miles away. A sexual assault kit yielded male DNA, which would be used to eliminate not one, but two false confessors in her case. Angelica’s murder was just one of a series of child murders in the central valley in just a few years, and one of the few that remained unsolved. When IGG provided a name for her slayer, police had never heard of him – and what they learned about him was both disturbing and frustrating.
