    Jessica Hamby
    Feb 17 2026
    Jessica Hamby was trying to come home. After months of fighting to get clean, after voluntarily entering detox, after choosing—again—to try—she stepped back into the Alabama winter…and disappeared. But Jessica’s story doesn’t begin the night she vanished. It begins six months earlier, when her friend Jeremy Abbott went missing and was later found hanging in the woods—exactly where Jessica told police his body would be. Why was she afraid to tell them? And why, after finally speaking up, did she leave the state for months? When Jessica returned, her phone began moving through Winston and Marion counties in the early morning hours of January 3, 2018—ending with one final message. What happened in those final hours? And how does a young mother simply vanish without a trace? Please also consider supporting Coffee and Cases by joining us over on our Patreon page! Are you up-to-date on all our regular content?!

    FROM THE VAULT (2021): Erica Baker
    Feb 10 2026
    Erica was walking her family dog in a nearby park when she was hit by a van. Erica’s family has not seen her since that day and her body is still missing. And the suspects’ use of drugs, as well as their lies, have led to more wild goose chases than answers. Please also consider supporting Coffee and Cases by joining us over on our Patreon page!

  • Living Statues

    Living Statues
    Feb 6 2026
    A century ago, a mysterious illness swept across the world—and instead of killing quickly, it stole something far stranger: movement, speech, and the ability to wake. Victims of encephalitis lethargica, the so-called “sleeping sickness,” became trapped inside their own bodies—some frozen mid-step, mid-sentence, or mid-bite, aware of everything but unable to respond. Millions were infected and many survivors were left as “living statues” for decades, until one experimental drug in the 1960s briefly awakened them—only for the miracle to fade and the darkness to return. In this episode, we follow the chilling rise and disappearance of the disease, the haunting patients of Beth Abraham Hospital, and the medical mystery that still has no definitive answer. Because the most unsettling part isn’t just what it did—it’s that we still don’t know why, or whether something like it could happen again.

  • One-Eyed Jack

    One-Eyed Jack
    Jan 30 2026
    In 1979, skeletal remains were discovered along the Alaska Highway near Tok—belonging to a man no one could name. He wore a black eye patch, carried a marble prosthetic eye in his pocket, and had been dead for more than a year before anyone noticed he was gone. Police knew who killed him, but the victim himself disappeared into history, leaving behind only fragments of a life and a question that has lasted nearly fifty years. Who was the man known as One-Eyed Jack—and how does someone vanish so completely that no one comes looking? This episode is about the quiet tragedy of a life lost without a name, and the search to give him one back. Please also consider supporting Coffee and Cases by joining us over on our Patreon page!

    FROM THE VAULT: Gary Grant, Jr.
    Jan 27 2026
    In January of 1984, seven-year-old Gary Grant Jr. walked out to play in Atlantic City, New Jersey—and never came home. His parents did everything right… and still, something went terribly wrong. What began as an ordinary day quickly became a nightmare that would fracture a family, a neighborhood, and an investigation for decades. This case is filled with whispered clues, troubling questions, and a justice system that never quite delivered answers. Who betrayed the trust of a child—and why has the truth remained out of reach for so long? Please consider supporting the pod by joining us over on our Patreon page!

  • German Luis Clerici UPDATE

    German Luis Clerici UPDATE
    Jan 23 2026
    German Luis Clerici ("Jersey" to his friends) disappeared in January of 2010. Days later, his body was found in a rural Kansas culvert. His shoes were clean. His wallet was still on him. His car was missing. And for more than a decade, no one could explain what happened. In April 2021, Coffee & Cases became the only podcast to ever cover Jersey’s case — just months before new information surfaced and investigators reopened the investigation. That fresh look led to arrests, court proceedings, and finally, long-awaited answers. In this update episode, Allison revisits Jersey’s story to share what has been uncovered since that original episode aired: what happened inside the house where he was last seen, how evidence was concealed, how investigators were misled, and what the court documents now reveal about the choices made after his death. This episode also explores the questions that still remain — and what justice looks like when the truth arrives years late, but at last, arrives. Listeners are encouraged to listen to our April 22nd, 2021 episode on German Luis Clerici (reposted just last week for your convenience) for full context before listening to this update.
