About this listen

Are you interested in mysteries? Puzzles? Crimes that remain unsolved or unresolved? So are we. The Looking Glass is an unusual podcast – a hybrid of true crime and history. While there are many journalists, amateur historians, and true crime enthusiasts producing excellent podcasts these days, this one is different. Host Matthew Kraig Kelly is a historian by training and a criminal investigator by profession. He aims to bring this expertise and experience to bear on the crimes we will be investigating and hopes to offer listeners valuable insights along the way. With a bit of luck, we may even solve a murder or two.

Season 1 of The Looking Glass offers the most thorough and authoritative history of the Jeffrey MacDonald murders available anywhere.

    Mini-Episode #3 - The Key to the MacDonald Murders is Sitting in a Government Evidence Locker, Untested
    Mar 22 2023

    In our third mini-episode, we discuss a hitherto neglected piece of evidence relating to the MacDonald murders, which a 2018 4th Circuit Court of Appeals decision claimed had been tested. We checked with the US Attorneys in North Carolina: it hasn't been. This piece of evidence remains in the possession of the United States government. Testing it could solve the MacDonald murders, once and for all.

    Welcome back to The Looking Glass.
