Every true crime story in our archive begins with a question no one could answer: an unsolved murder, a cold case reopened decades later, a mysterious death the coroner couldn't explain, a disappearance that never made sense.

Open the crime files with us. Each episode follows the crime investigation from the first call to the trial — how investigators build a murder case, where a police investigation goes cold, and what justice looks like when it arrives late, or never arrives at all. Some episodes hunt a serial killer who hid in plain sight. Others reconstruct a family murder that tore a town apart, or a murder mystery that turned neighbors against each other.

And then there are the missing: a missing person report filed too late; missing persons whose trails went cold within days; a missing woman last seen leaving work; a missing girl whose face was on every screen in the country; a missing man found dead years after he vanished; the missing and murdered whose names deserve to be remembered. We tell every crime story with respect for the victim, for the families, and for those who survived.

From the infamous case the whole world watched to the unsolved case you have never heard of, from classic true crime to dark true crime and disturbing true crime, our true crime reports bring you real crime stories, real murder cases, true murder stories and unsolved mysteries — one true crime case at a time, straight from the OBOMEDIA true crime vault. Because if a killer is still out there, the story is not over.

A man with no criminal record walked into a stranger's home, believing he was invited, only to be found dead in the master bedroom alongside a pediatric intensive care nurse whose photo was used to lure him. This was not a crime of passion, but a meticulously planned deception by someone who knew exactly how to build a lie. What drove an IRS Special Agent to construct a fake identity using his own wife's image, leading to the deaths of two innocent people?

In this episode, we analyze the chilling precision behind a double murder in Herndon, Virginia, where an IRS Criminal Investigation agent allegedly used his wife's intimate photo to create a fake online profile, luring an unsuspecting man to his death. We examine the meticulous planning involved and the tragic consequences for Joseph Bryan, Christin Benfield, and the au pair caught in the middle.

On a summer night in 1997, a man was found dead in a Gothenburg park, shot twice. The investigation uncovered a satanic order and two men who each confessed to being present at the killing, yet blamed the other for firing the gun. How can two confessions both be true and false at the same time?

In this episode, we delve into the baffling case of Joseph Ben Medar, a regular in Gothenburg's nightlife who approached two strangers asking if they were Satanists. We explore the lives of John Andreas Notbay, an extreme metal musician, and Víctor Draconi, a member of the Luciferian Misanthropic Order, and the conflicting accounts that left a murder unsolved.

An eleven-year-old girl leaves home for a quick errand and is found stabbed twelve times on a remote moorland road. The physical evidence to identify her killer was collected, cataloged, and then hidden, leading to an innocent man serving sixteen years in prison. What dark truth did the system choose to bury?

In this episode, we analyze the tragic murder of Leslie Moles and the shocking thirty-two-year cover-up that followed. We explore how critical evidence was suppressed, allowing the real killer to remain free while an innocent man paid the price. How could a system designed for justice fail so spectacularly?

Location: Rochdale, West Yorkshire, Rishworth
Victim: Leslie Moles, 11 years old

On a quiet Monday morning, a beloved TV host was found shot dead on her doorstep, a pool of blood spreading across the tiles. Her neighbor, Helen Doble, discovered her, initially thinking she had been stabbed, as no one heard a gunshot or any commotion.

We explore her life, her career as a presenter for shows like "Crimewatch," and the personal turning point she was experiencing just before her death. We also examine the baffling circumstances of her killing, including the fact that she wasn't regularly living at the house where she was murdered, raising questions about how her killer knew she would be there.

In this episode, we delve into the life of Lana Clarkson, her career in Hollywood, and the fateful night she met Phil Spector at the House of Blues.

A young woman steps out of a car at 4:15 AM, just steps from her front door, and vanishes. Less than two hours later, a neighbor discovers what he first mistakes for a mannequin behind a construction skip, only to realize it's a brutal crime scene. What happened in those crucial hours, and how did the evidence point to a killer no one knew?

In this episode, we analyze the final hours of Sally Ann Bowman, an 18-year-old aspiring model found murdered in Croydon. We examine the critical forensic evidence, including bite marks, that initially cleared a prime suspect and led investigators on a nine-month search for a killer with no known connection to the victim. How did a seemingly random act of violence leave such specific clues?

Key Data:
Victim: Sally Ann Bowman
Date of Death: September 24, 2005
Location: Blenheim Crescent, Croydon
Age: 18 years old
Cause of Death: Multiple stab wounds, post-mortem sexual assault

- Sally Ann Bowman was found at approximately 6:30 AM behind a construction skip.
- She had been stabbed at least seven times, with three wounds passing completely through her body.
- The victim had also been bitten multiple times, leaving DNA evidence.
- An argument with her ex-boyfriend, Louis Sprosten, occurred for nearly two hours before her death.
- A resident heard an "unmistakably a scream" shortly after 4:15 AM, followed by a man walking calmly on the street.

On a quiet Saturday morning in Sydney, the Epping Central News Agency remained shuttered, sparking worry among customers. Inside a nearby home, five members of the Lin family lay dead, yet there was no sign of forced entry. How did the killer enter a locked house without breaking a single lock, and what does this reveal about the person responsible?

In this episode, we delve into the shocking discovery of the Lin family murders in North Epping, Sydney, and the immediate clues that pointed investigators away from a random act of violence. We explore the family's life, the events leading up to that fateful night, and the chilling detail of a twelve-year-old boy's decision that saved his life. What did the absence of forced entry tell police about the killer's identity?

Case: Lin Family Murders

Date: July 18, 2009
Victims: Min Norman Lin, Yun Lin (Lily), Brenda Lin, Henry Lin, Terry Lin, Irene Lin

On a quiet Saturday morning in Sydney, the Epping Central News Agency remained shuttered, sparking worry among customers. Inside a nearby home, five members of the Lin family lay dead, yet there was no sign of forced entry. How did the killer enter a locked house without breaking a single lock, and what does this reveal about the person responsible?

In this episode, we delve into the shocking discovery of the Lin family murders in North Epping, Sydney, and the immediate clues that pointed investigators away from a random act of violence. We explore the family's life, the events leading up to that fateful night, and the chilling detail of a twelve-year-old boy's decision that saved his life. What did the absence of forced entry tell police about the killer's identity?

Case: Lin Family Murders
Location: Boundary Road, North Epping, Sydney
Date: July 18, 2009
Victims: Min Norman Lin, Yun Lin (Lily), Brenda Lin, Henry Lin, Terry Lin, Irene Lin
Investigation Unit: Strikeforce Nobun

- On the morning of Saturday, July 18, 2009, five members of the Lin family were found dead in their home.
- The Epping Central News Agency, owned by Min Norman Lin, was generating over one million dollars annually.
- Min's sister, Kathy Zhu, and her husband, Robert Liang Bin Zhu, discovered the bodies after a concerned customer called.
- Investigators found no signs of forced entry, suggesting the killer either had a key or was let inside.

A twenty-year-old woman was preparing for bed when the lights went out, followed by footsteps and a chilling announcement: "I came to rob. But I'll stay to rape." This was the beginning of eight months of terror in Cambridge, a city where locks offered no protection. How did one man gain such unprecedented access to so many homes?

In this episode, we delve into the case of Peter Samuel Cook, a delivery driver who methodically terrorized Cambridge between October 1974 and April 1975. We explore how his ordinary job and a hidden collection of keys allowed him to bypass security and leave victims wondering how he entered their locked homes.

Case: Peter Samuel Cook
Location: Cambridge, England
Period: October 1974 - April 1975
Investigator: Detective Superintendent Bernard Hodson
Occupation: Delivery driver for Dolomo's Wine Company

- On October 18, 1974, a 20-year-old woman was attacked in her home on Springfield Road, Cambridge.
- Peter Samuel Cook, 47 years old in 1974, worked as a delivery driver and lived in Hardwick, five miles from Cambridge city center.
- Cook had a criminal record for burglary and theft, including five years in Dartmoor Prison for robbing a women's clothing store.
- He was known to carry a collection of keys capable of opening the majority of doors in Cambridge.
- During a third attack, the victim fought back and tore off the attacker's wig, which Cook later returned to retrieve from the scene.

A thirteen-year-old girl vanished from her home, and the only other person there failed a polygraph, mentioned an unprompted county, and used the phrase "both of us." For over a decade, the community waited and the family watched as the system struggled to act on what it already knew. What could explain such a prolonged silence when a crucial detail pointed to a specific individual?

In this episode, we analyze the disappearance of Haley Dunn from Colorado City, Texas, on December 27, 2010. We examine the initial response to her disappearance, the inconsistencies in the sole witness's account, and the critical details that emerged during a polygraph examination.

A thirteen-year-old girl vanished from her home, and the only other person there failed a polygraph, mentioned an unprompted county, and used the phrase "both of us." For over a decade, the community waited and the family watched as the system struggled to act on what it already knew. What could explain such a prolonged silence when a crucial detail pointed to a specific individual?

In this episode, we analyze the disappearance of Haley Dunn from Colorado City, Texas, on December 27, 2010. We examine the initial response to her disappearance, the inconsistencies in the sole witness's account, and the critical details that emerged during a polygraph examination. What fractures in the system allowed a missing minor's case to remain unsolved for so long, despite compelling evidence?

We explore the tumultuous relationship between Tracy and her fiancé, Lee Harvey, and the events leading up to his murder.

On January 11, 2013, a teacher found a teenager dead inside a rolled wrestling mat at Lowndes High School, his face bloodied and unrecognizable. Despite the official ruling of accidental death by suffocation, the victim's nineteen-inch shoulders could not fit into the fourteen-inch mat opening, raising immediate questions about how he got there.

In this episode, we delve into the mysterious death of Kendrick Johnson, a seventeen-year-old athlete and student whose body was found in an impossible position. We explore the conflicting accounts from students and investigators, and the critical omissions in the initial death investigation. What really happened inside the old gymnasium?

Victim: Kendrick Johnson
Age: 17
Date of Death: January 10, 2013
Location: Lowndes High School, Valdosta, Georgia
Official Cause of Death: Accidental suffocation

- Kendrick Johnson's body was found upside down inside a rolled wrestling mat, head at the bottom, feet pointing to the ceiling.
- His shoulders measured nineteen inches across, while the mat's opening was fourteen inches in diameter.
- Security cameras last captured Kendrick walking alone towards the old gymnasium at approximately 1:28 PM on January 10, 2013.

For thirty-eight days, that story held, but the precision and planning of the crime, and the killer's attempt to control digital evidence, defied simple explanation.

How did a man believe he could control what his wife's devices recorded, and what led to his downfall?

Two members of the Stockdale family were already dead, and the shooter, their own son, lay barely alive from a self-inflicted wound. What drove this seemingly normal family to such a tragic end?

In this episode, we delve into the Stockdale family, known for their strict homeschooling, unique lifestyle, and a bluegrass band that brought them national attention.

A phone call ended mid-sentence on a residential street in Solihull, England, as a woman reported, "He's here. I can see him." Moments later, both she and her mother were dead. Despite five emergency calls and a valid court protection order, why did every layer of protection collapse before the killer ever stepped out of the shadows?

In this episode, we analyze the tragic case of Raneem O'Day and Khaola Saleem, who were murdered despite Raneem's repeated attempts to secure police intervention. We explore the accumulation of warnings and the legal failures that led to a devastating outcome, raising the question of whether the law was there when it was needed most.

A 38-year-old man, searching for a real connection on a dating website, followed directions to a rented garage in Edmonton, Alberta, for a first date. He was never seen alive again. What he didn't know was that the garage owner had a document titled "SK Confessions" detailing his plans, and that another man had walked into the same trap just twelve days earlier and survived.

In this episode, we analyze the chilling case of a filmmaker obsessed with a popular TV show about a serial killer, who meticulously constructed a "kill room" and used a dating app to lure his victims. What drove him to emulate fiction in such a terrifying way, and why did his first victim remain silent?

A mother of five sends a hopeful text, then disappears on the eve of her child's birthday. Her ex-partner, sleeping upstairs, waits nearly 48 hours to report her missing, even as cameras reveal a chilling detail about the night she vanished. What really happened inside that house in New Ash Green, Kent?

In this episode, we analyze the disappearance of Sarah Wellgreen, a dedicated mother whose case became one of the most forensically precise in recent British criminal history. Despite no body, no weapon, and no confession, a jury reached a unanimous verdict. How did investigators build a case with such limited evidence?

In this episode, we analyze the disappearance of Sarah Payne, an eight-year-old girl from West Sussex in 2000. We explore the initial search, the crucial witness testimony of her thirteen-year-old brother, and the police's early focus on a white van and a registered sex offender already in their files.

Case: Sarah Payne Disappearance
Date: July 1, 2000
Location: West Sussex, England
Victim: Sarah Evelyn Isabel Payne, 8 years old
Witness: Lee Payne, 13 years old

- Sarah Payne was last seen running through a gap in a cornfield, heading home, after tripping and hitting her head.
- Her brother, Lee, turned to check on his other siblings for one second, and when he looked back, Sarah was gone.
- Lee remembered seeing a white van near the field, driven by a "dirty-looking" man who smiled and waved before accelerating away.
- Police launched "Operation Naple" and quickly identified a registered sex offender, Roy Whiting, who drove a white van and lived nearby.
- Whiting had a prior conviction from 1995 for the abduction and indecent assault of a nine-year-old girl and had been released in 1997.

On September 29, 2012, Shauna Tiffay was found dead in her Las Vegas apartment, struck seventeen times with a hammer. The man charged with ordering her death had described her as the center of his world, a stark contradiction to the brutal crime. How could a respected firefighter and father orchestrate such a violent act against the woman he claimed to love, all for a mere $600?

In this episode, we analyze the shocking case of Shauna Tiffay, a woman who rebuilt her life from scratch only to be murdered in her own home. We explore the unraveling of her marriage to George Tiffay, a West Point-trained firefighter, and the financial pressures that preceded the crime. What drove a seemingly upstanding man to such an extreme act of violence?

On a summer afternoon, four young people were watching TV in a Clear Lake, Texas home when they were ambushed and killed in seconds. The front door was not forced, the windows were intact, and no one heard gunshots, yet over forty bullets were fired. How could such a brutal attack occur without a single alarm, and why did the evidence suggest the killers were expected?

In this episode, we analyze the shocking details of a quadruple murder where the victims were caught completely off guard, and the person who likely led the killer to the door was one of their closest friends. We explore the lives of the four victims and the chilling forensic evidence that painted a picture of a coordinated, efficient, and utterly brutal attack.

Case: Clear Lake Murders
Date: July 18, 2003
Location: Clear Lake, Texas
Victims: Tiffany Row (18), Rachel Kutus (18), Marcus Priscella (19), Adelbert Sánchez (21)
Evidence: Two different weapons (9mm and .38 caliber)

- Four people were found dead in a house in Clear Lake, Texas, on July 18, 2003.
- Rachel Kutus managed to press "91" on a phone before being struck in the head and shot at least twelve times.
- Over forty bullets were fired inside the house from two different weapons.
- Forensic artist Lois Gibson created portraits of two suspects seen near the house, a young man and a young woman dressed in black.
- The front door was not forced, and there were no signs of a struggle, suggesting the attackers were expected or not feared.

How could such a brutal attack occur without a single alarm, and why did the evidence suggest the killers were expected?

In this episode, we analyze the shocking details of a quadruple murder where the victims were caught completely off guard, and the person who likely led the killer to the door was one of their closest friends. We explore the lives of the four victims and the chilling forensic evidence that painted a picture of a coordinated, efficient, and utterly brutal attack.

Case: Clear Lake Murders
Date: July 18, 2003
Location: Clear Lake, Texas
Victims: Tiffany Row (18), Rachel Kutus (18), Marcus Priscella (19), Adelbert Sánchez (21)
Evidence: Two different weapons (9mm and .38 caliber)

- Four people were found dead in a house in Clear Lake, Texas, on July 18, 2003.
- Rachel Kutus managed to press "91" on a phone before being struck in the head and shot at least twelve times.
- Over forty bullets were fired inside the house from two different weapons.
- Forensic artist Lois Gibson created portraits of two suspects seen near the house, a young man and a young woman dressed in black.
- The front door was not forced, and there were no signs of a struggle, suggesting the attackers were expected or not feared.

A mother took a photo of her ten-year-old daughter and her best friend, both in matching Manchester United shirts, on an ordinary summer evening. Hours later, both girls vanished, sparking one of the largest missing-child investigations in British history. What secret did those red shirts hold that no one knew yet?

On a Wednesday morning in June 2013, Richard Arenus was killed in his own driveway by a shooter who had never met him. Law enforcement concluded that the killer was looking for someone else, leaving a family devastated and an unanswered question hanging over the case. What could lead to such a fatal mistake in a quiet residential neighborhood?

In this episode, we analyze the investigation into Richard Arenus's death, from the crucial neighbor's camera footage to the unexpected detail that helped identify the killer. How did a seemingly ordinary errand turn into a tragic crime scene, and what pivotal piece of evidence ultimately led to a conviction?

A mother called emergency services to report her six-year-old daughter missing, claiming she vanished overnight. However, investigators later confirmed the child had almost certainly been dead for weeks before the call. How could a parent orchestrate such a deception, knowing the truth all along?

In this episode, we delve into the perplexing case of Kaisha Abrahams, a six-year-old girl whose disappearance sparked a community search built on a devastating lie. We explore the timeline of events, the people involved, and the chilling question of how someone can feign distress while knowing the answer to the mystery they present.
