Murder Files Unsealed

The episode details two high-profile criminal investigations featured on the true crime program Crime Watch Daily. The first case follows the disappearance of Tim Bosma, a young father who was murdered by Delan Mard and Mark Smitch during a test drive of a vehicle he was selling online. Investigators linked the wealthy, thrill-seeking Mard to the crime through a distinctive tattoo and eventually discovered the victim's remains in an industrial incinerator. The second narrative explores the wrongful conviction of Raymond Jennings, a security guard accused of killing aspiring actress Michelle O’Keefe in a California parking lot. After serving eleven years in prison, Jennings was declared factually innocent when new legal counsel highlighted a lack of physical evidence and pointed toward a different suspect. Both accounts emphasize the complexities of forensic evidence and the devastating impact of these violent acts on the victims' families.

This episode details the lethal poisoning of Mary Yodar, a New York chiropractor who died suddenly from colchicine toxicity in 2015. While investigators initially looked at her husband and son, their focus shifted to Caitlyn Conley, the son's former girlfriend and a family employee. Digital forensics and an anonymous letter used to frame Mary’s son ultimately linked Conley to the purchase of the toxin. Despite a mistrial and claims from some family members that the husband or son were the true culprits, Conley was convicted of first-degree manslaughter. She was sentenced to 23 years in prison, though the case continues to divide the victim's grieving family.

In 1987, the Anchorage Police Department and the FBI collaborated to solve the brutal triple homicide of Nancy Newman and her two young daughters. Investigators utilized advanced forensic techniques, such as luminol processing and fiber analysis, to meticulously reconstruct the events within the victims' apartment. A psychological profile provided by the FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit correctly identified the killer as someone known to the family with a history of sexual violence. The discovery of microscopic hair evidence and unique pubic lice eventually linked Nancy's nephew, Kirby Anthony, to the crime scene despite his inconsistent alibi. Anthony was captured while attempting to flee to the Canadian border and was later sentenced to 357 years in prison. This landmark case highlighted the vital importance of inter-agency cooperation and the first courtroom acceptance of criminal profiling as expert testimony.
