SOLVED: The Murder of Rachel Morin

Hey everyone, it’s Jen, and welcome back to True Crime and Headlines with Jules and Jen. 
Today, we're diving into a case that shocked an entire community, set off a nationwide investigation, and reignited debates on crime and safety.
It’s  a warm summer evening, a quiet suburban trail, a mother of five heading out for a routine jog—one she would never return from. What should have been an ordinary workout became the setting for a horrifying crime that left a family devastated and a town in mourning.

MISSING: Pregnant Mother | Emma Baum

MISSING: Pregnant Mother | Emma Baum |
Imagine this: It’s a quiet evening. The sun has dipped below the horizon, and the world is settling into its usual rhythms. Somewhere, a young woman is walking alone, her thoughts likely on the mundane details of her day. Maybe she’s on her way home.Maybe she’s meeting a friend.And then—she vanishes.No witnesses. No struggle. No trace. Just…gone.This is the story of Emma Baum. A story of a young woman with her whole life ahead of her, who one day disappeared without a trace.
A story that has left her family shattered, her community shaken, and investigators baffled.What happened to Emma Baum? Was she taken? Did she leave on her own? Or isthere something even darker at play?

Crime Analyst Works to Crack the BTK Strangler Puzzle | Special Guest: Melissa Phelan

Crime Analyst Works to Crack the BTK Strangler Puzzle | Special Guest: Melissa Phelan
In 2004, the unknown identity of BTK was still haunting Wichita, Kansas. A word search/puzzle/code was sent to a local Kansas news station.
For decades, many have attempted to solve it, however, one individual has recently made waves in the crime community with her claims of having discovered additional victims and even going as far to say she believes she can pinpoint locations. 
We welcomed special guest and crime analyst Melissa Phelan as she walks us through how and why she believes that BTK confessed two more unsolved homicides in this same puzzle. 
**Please accept our apologies for the audio quality- this was recorded through wavering Internet connections- we're coming to you from Tennessee, Illinois, and Colorado.

SERIAL KILLER: The BTK Strangler Monster |Bind, Torture, Kill| Part 1 of 2

Listener discretion is advised. SERIAL KILLER: The BTK Strangler Monster |Bind, Torture, Kill| Part 1 of 2Bind them. Torture Them. Kill Them. A three step process in fulfiling one man’s sick and demonic sexual fantasies. So why share the story? Why do we give these monsters more attention and discussion? Because they took the lives of people who aren’t here to speak up any longer, yet we can. And we will, and we’re here to make sure nobody celebrates this monster, but rather- we can study and learn how to stop any future monsters from taking innocent lives. Here at Fire Eyes Media, Jen and I strive to be better victim advocates each case we share. For this purpose, we will be leaving out some graphic details per our discretion.In Part 1 of 2, we dive right in to the timeline of the crimes and then we'll return in Part 2 all about who BTK is (yes, he's still alive). Jules takes the helm on this series!
