#302 - Too Gruesome To Solve - Columbus, Wisconsin
This week, in Columbus, Wisconsin, when a young man comes home from the night shift at the paper factory, he finds his wife, bludgeoned, strangled, stabbed, and worse. But police don't quite know where to look for suspects, with the husband having a seemingly fine alibi, and this new mother having no real enemies. A small town police force allows the case to go cold, but when it's finally looked at, again, there is a new theory, and suspect, after years of suspicion & gossip being pointed at he husband. But did he really do it? Was it the husband? The friend who drove past the house? Someone else? This one is a mystery, wrapped in riddle! Along the way, we find out that houses are cheap in rural Wisconsin, that it might not ALWAYS be the husband, and that cases are hard to solve with no physical evidence, or witnesses!!

#301 - STM Express - Intentional Accidents - Brownington, Vermont
This week, in Brownington, Vermont, the couple behind a very odd, and seriously hilarious, public access tv show, in northern Vermont suffer a terrible tragedy, when an awful accident kills one of the pair. It seems to be just plain bad luck, until an OK Cupid online dating hookup sees some strange personal habits, and hears some very weird things, from the widow, including a story that makes them go straight to the police. A ridiculous sting operation takes place, eventually catching an audio recording of the admission of guilt. But will that be enough to convict someone of such a bizarre crime? Along the way, we find out that apples & cheese go together, that public access television is always the worst, and that nothing is more unattractive than "a bucket of wriggling peckers"!!

#300 - Bits Of Flesh & Mysteries Solved - Addy, Washington
This week, in Addy, Washington, a rugged, but close family, lives in a remote area, and makes a living mostly off the land. They have their problems, like any other family, but nothing that could possibly hint at the wholesale slaughter that would take place within the walls of the home that they built with their own hands. When police find blood stains & "bits of flesh" around the house, there is no question who is responsible. But why? Was this a simple disagreement over a normal chore, or was this something MUCH darker, and more disturbing? When the real motive comes out, it's more shocking than could have been imagined! Along the way, we find out that the Pam & Lam Ham Jamband may be at Farm Jam, that you never know what disgusting thoughts are running through someone's head, and that maybe no one should have a video camera in their home...

#299 - STM Express - Wear My Murder Necklace - Daleville, Alabama
This week, in Daleville, Alabama, a very creepy situation unfolds, when an awful man decides that he doesn't like the new boy who is dating his teenage daughter. This isn't just a case of an overprotective father, either. This is much weirder than that. This man forces his daughter to lure this boyfriend to a rural area, in the middle of the night, and terrible things happen. This man then forces his daughter to wear the shell casings from the murder bullets, on a necklace. That's just the tip of this disturbing iceberg!! Along the way, we find out that scarecrows are apparently deserving over their own festival, that teenage love shouldn't be this complicated, and that we may have finally found the worst person on earth!!

#297 - STM Express - Hey Jude... Don't Shoot My Mom - St. Martinville, Louisiana
This week, in St. Martinville, Louisiana, moving out of the trailer that you've made into your love nest is difficult, but with the help of family, you can get it done. The only problem is that your spurned lover may use this as a reason to go wild, and begin settling debts, with violence. He starts out at the local bar, and ends up at his Ex's parents' house, with shotgun, and a bad attitude. When all of this horrific murder finally gets to trial, it turns out that just about everyone in court is related, somehow, and a true mess takes hold!! Along the way, we find out that it's good to be the Pepper Queen, that time can't heal all wounds, and that when you murder, you're not supposed to do it in front of as many witnesses as possible!

#296 - The Minister's Wife Is Filthy - Trinidad, Colorado
This week, in Trinidad, Colorado, a minister's wife has an appetite for certain things. Like men, in the congregation. This causes them to move from state to state, after the affairs inevitably surface. This lands them in Colorado, which the marriage over, and several more to come. She finds a rugged mountain man, an optometrist, and a fireman, among others. This is all fine, until she wants one to kill the others. This leads to two of the most ridiculous, and moronic murders, that somehow leave dead bodies, in history. There is also a legal adjudication, that we've never heard a judge make, that you certainly wouldn't want on your resume! Along the way, we find out that moving won't cure horniness, that it takes some real charm to arouse some snakes, and that once you two dead husbands, you definitely start to look suspicious!!

#295 - STM Express - Murder, Table For One - New Paltz, New York
This week, in New Paltz, New York, a lonely man, coming out of a recent depression, and having lost 150 pounds, befriends a waitress at his neighborhood diner. They bond over the fact that they've both lost loved ones, recently, and that she also just had a major weight loss. The relationship turns obsessive, but only on one side of it. Little does she know, that his growing obsession with her could lead to a dangerous situation, like possibly being murdered in one of the most horrifying ways imaginable. From there, strange jail house interviews, and odd court behavior make this whole thing a real head shaker! Along the way, we find out that Ribfest sounds amazing, that if someone tells you that they just brutally murdered someone, you should believe them, and that just because someone is serving you food, doesn't mean they actually like you!

#294 - A Dumb Ted Bundy - Conway, South Carolina
This week, in Conway, South Carolina, a popular local teenager is found, horribly butchered, and everyone in town are considered suspects. Police question dozens of friends, and family, only to come up with no answers, but luckily for them, DNA has just come on the scene, giving them a new tool to use to solve terrible crimes like this. An FBI profiler is brought in, and the profile turns out to match a suspect, perfectly. And so does the DNA. The problem is, it's someone that no one suspected, and some people even think DNA can't be real! But it is, and this person is ver guilty. Will they get the death penalty?? Along the way, we find out that soldiers really want quilts, that FBI profiles are sometimes insanely accurate, and that DNA doesn't lie!!

#293 - STM Express - All Book, No Cover - Morton, Illinois
This week, in Morton, Illinois, a couple has a very nice life, and many accomplishments, including him, being a respected doctor, as they raised four children together. One day, things changed. Mental breakdowns, an affair with a Rabbi, hiding money, a secret love nest, furnished with the imaginary proceeds from a multi level marketing scheme, all come to a head on one particular day. When an incredibly vicious murder occurs, while witnesses try to physically stop it, with no luck. The resulting bloodbath causes many years of court, and a frankly crazy result! A wild story, all the way through! Along the way, we find out that you should like pumpkin, if you live in this town, that if movers can't move you, you don't want to be moved, and that some books are anything but their covers!!
