We want to share with you a true crime podcast we think you’ll really like. It’s called Ozarks True Crime. Listen to Episode 1 of Season 2 right here. It tells the story of the Feeney family murders.
On February 25, 1995, Jon Feeney said goodbye to his wife and two young children before driving to a teacher’s conference an hour and a half away. Two days later, his wife and two young children were found brutally murdered. There are some who are convinced Jon Feeney snuck away from the conference, drove back home, killed them, and then returned.
Join journalist Anne Roderique-Jones as she returns to her hometown to investigate the murders of Cheryl, Tyler, and baby Jennifer and answer the question: Is Jon a killer who escaped consequences, or an innocent man who lost his entire family? And if you like what you hear, find Ozarks True Crime on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts to hear more episodes and subscribe!

With all the physical evidence lost and little investigation into Billie’s case, we look to Billie’s body for clues about what happened the night she was shot.
The 1991 autopsy of Billie Jean Letterman was performed by a controversial medical examiner named Dr. Fahmy Malak, who resigned amid accusations that he botched several autopsies. We took the autopsy results to Dr. Charles Kokes, the new chief medical examiner for the state of Arkansas after Malak. Would he stand by the conclusions drawn by his controversial predecessor?
We also spoke with Jen Bucholtz to get her insight on Billie’s case. She’s a professor of forensics and a private investigator.
