  • Five teenage friends went out to Gitchie Manitou State Preserve one night in November of 1973 for a fun night of music around a campfire. Sadly, only 1 of them returned home. After being approached by 3 men claiming to be police officers, 4 of them were gunned down for no reason. The sole survivor fought bravely and was able to obtain justice for her 4 friends.

  • Stacey Hanna was an 18 year old woman who was searching for her place as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. She believed that she had finally found her people in some friends who lived in Richmond, Virginia. Shortly after moving in, however, Stacey became an outcast within the group. It wasn’t long before 4 of her so-called “friends” plotted to teach her a lesson and brutally murdered her. This is a very sad and scary case of how a “gang” mentality can end up costing someone their life.

  • Phillip Ingle had a troubled past and struggled with substance abuse disorder and mental health issues. But then in 1991, he terrorized a small North Carolina town by brutally murdering 4 of its elderly residents for seemingly no reason. Sadly, the ripple effect of Phillip’s actions lead to the deaths of 3 additional people. This is a tragic case of a system failing a very inherently disturbed individual.

  • In February of 1959 10 young people embarked on a journey to hike and ski Dead Mountain in the northern Soviet Union. 1 of the hikers turned back a day into the trip, leaving the remaining 9 to carry on. When they failed to make contact and return on time, search parties were sent out to find them. The hikers were all found dead and their campsite was found undisturbed.

  • Bobby Kicklighter was a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, a pillar of his community, and the local town historian. When he was randomly shot in his bed at the age of 88 the town of Glennville, Georgia wanted answers. The ones they got were disturbing, confusing, and down right scary. This case is a smaller piece of a larger puzzle but we are honored to tell Mr. Bobby’s story. Join us in the closet this week as we discuss the murder of Bobby Kicklighter.
