Hello, campers! The days may be getting shorter and the nights a little colder, but the campfire is still going strong here in the woods.
Thanks for stopping by for this week's episode! We have a special guest host and a brand-new base to share with you.
Olivia is with us to share the heartbreaking case of the deaths of Ed and Minnie Maurin. The case went unsolved for several decades due to a lack of evidence and witness statements. Thankfully, this one does have a conviction and the elderly couple and their remaining family can maybe be at peace.
Thanks, Olivia!
Thank you to all our supporters on Patreon If you are missing the WTF episodes, head over to our Patreon channel and subscribe to get in on the action!

Happy Friday, campers! Welcome back for a new episode. The season is almost over, but we still have some great cases to bring you…including this one.
Eric and Kouri Richins seemed to have it all. The beautiful couple started a family and led a life that would be the envy of anyone. It all came crashing down one early morning in March of 2020 when Eric passed away tragically and unexpectedly. The community of Kamas, Utah mourned the loss heavily at his passing. For the next year, they would rally behind his widow and family.
But the cracks slowly began to show and more about the couple's life came to light. No one would be prepared for what would come out.

Our second episode for season 6 takes a look at a tragic mass shooting at a Washington University. At the age of 26, Aaron Ybarra had years of mental health struggles and a problem with substance abuse. He was tired of not being taken seriously and had a hatred of the world. His answer was to cause as much suffering before taking his own life.
On June 5, 2014, Ybarra walked onto the Seattle Pacific University campus with a shotgun and 50 rounds of ammunition, a hunting knife, and the urge to kill as many people as he could. Sadly, he did succeed in taking one life and injuring several others, but thanks to a heroic person on campus that day, was stopped before he could do more.
Join us as we take a look at this mass shooting and the “mastermind” behind it.

Your favorite podcast is back for a new season!
We’ve had some time to recharge and regroup and we are ready to get back into true crime cases from the PNW.
This episode takes us back to the early 1900s in Oregon, where a charismatic religious man was able to start a Holy Roller sect in the small community of Corvallis. Franz Edmund Creffield believed he was the new messiah and it was his job, his responsibility, to find the one lucky lady who would be the mother to the second Christ. His antics caused many issues with the men of the area and the local law enforcement.
Join Brice and Jess for the season 6 opener of the podcast! Let us know your thoughts and send any suggestions you have our way.
Some information from this episode:
A deep dive into Creffield and the newspaper reports of his activity at the turn of the 1900s with news articles included (this is also a review of the book written by T. McCracken and Robert B. Blodgett https://mchumor.com/edmundcreffield.com/index.html
