    Feb 20 2026
    ep 321: Maryanne Measles. Today we’re sharing a special collaboration episode we recorded with Dr. Casey Jordan and Dr. Colleen Butler-Sweet of the podcast, Criminal Appeal. We discuss the murder of thirteen-year-old Maryanne Measles of New Milford, Connecticut. The case is deeply personal to Casey, who lived in the area at the time and even joined the searches for Maryanne before her body was found. This is Part Two of Criminal Appeal’s coverage, so we strongly encourage you to listen to Part One for a full narrative of the case, including interviews with those who knew Maryanne best. Part 1 can be found here: Apple Podcasts Spotify We’re grateful to share this conversation with you — and we hope you find it as compelling as we did.
