About this listen

This podcast episode recounts the tragic deaths of Leela and Jackson Morgan, two children who perished in a house fire in Ultimate, Oregon, in September 2022. The narrative details how their mother, Calgary Morgan, and her boyfriend, Dennis Whley, were responsible for setting the fire, driven by a desire for life insurance money and a fresh start without the children. The investigation uncovered damning text messages and evidence of Calgary increasing the children's life insurance policies just before the incident. The episode follows the arrest, trial, and conviction of Calgary Morgan for aggravated murder and arson, and Dennis Whley's plea deal for conspiracy, concluding with the aftermath for those involved and the community.
