  • Nebraska: The Beatrice Six
    Feb 9 2026
    In the early morning hours of February 5th, 1985 a 68-year-old grandmother named Helen Wilson was raped and murdered in her apartment in the 600 block of North 6th Street in Beatrice Nebraska. No one could solve the case until a girl named Lisa Puttendorf went to the cops and told them that a friend of hers, JoAnn Taylor had confessed to the crime along with her boyfriend Joseph "Lobo" White and Tom Winslow. The case would spiral and spiral until six people were in prison for the crime. But years later, DNA evidence would point the case in a whole different direction and things were not what they seemed.

  • Missouri: The Kidnapping of Shawn Hornbeck and Ben Ownby
    Jan 12 2026
    On October 6, 2002, 11-year-old Shawn Hornbeck asked his mom if he could go bike riding in his hometown of Richwoods, Missouri. His mom said yes, because Shawn had ridden his bike alone hundreds of times before. She told him to be home by dinner. But, when he wasn't, and it got dark out, the Hornbecks were extremely worried. Shawn was always home for dinner and was deathly afraid of the dark. Turned out it was something much worse than the dark. Shawn had been kidnapped just a mile from his home.
    Years went by and there was no trace of Shawn. Until January of 2007, almost 5 years later, another boy named Ben Ownby disappeared after he got off the school bus and never made it home in Beuford, Missouri. That set off a chain of events in which an exceptional 15-year-old eyewitness, a pizza restaurant owner and the FBI would do something remarkable. Something still referred to as "The Missouri Miracle."
