    292: Kendrick Lee
    In October 2021, police were dispatched to a home in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. They had received a call from a teenage boy who reported he and his two younger brothers had been abandoned by their mother.

    291: Dorothy Mayfield
    Just after midnight on September 13, 1990, a security company in Lexington, South Carolina, received an alarm alert from 5037 Sunset Boulevard. Attempts to contact the home’s occupants failed, prompting police to investigate. What they found inside was a horrifying scene that would haunt the town for years. In a place built on tradition and close ties, the crime raised profound questions of justice, family, and forgiveness.

    290: Jason Foreman
    It was a peaceful day on Shaeffer Street, where the quiet hum of daily life filled the air in this close-knit, working-class neighborhood of Peace Dale, Rhode Island. Families chatted on porches, children played outside, and everyone went about their routines—until the unsettling news broke. Young Jason Foreman was missing. Neighbors quickly set aside their tasks, joining together to search the streets, comb nearby parks, and hold onto hope. Little did they know, the answers lay closer than they could imagine.

    289: The Kologi Massacre
    On New Year’s Eve 2017, the neighbourhood of Wall Street in Long Branch, New Jersey, was abuzz with the sound of fireworks as families gathered to ring in the New Year.

    As families across the world were gathering for Christmas morning in 2008, a concerned son-in-law in Newry, Northern Ireland, was trying to reach his elderly mother-in-law. She hadn’t been answering her phone, and worry had set in. Deciding to check on her in person, he made his way to her home on Dublin Road. But when he stepped into her quiet house, he was met with a sight so horrific it would haunt him—and the close-knit community—for years to come.

    Listen Now - Hollywood & Crime: The Cotton Club Murder
    On June 10th, 1983, the decomposing body of a well-dressed man was found in a desolate canyon near Los Angeles. John Doe #94 would soon be identified as missing variety show producer Roy Radin. He'd last been seen after meeting with a mysterious woman in a gold dress. Her name was Lanie Jacobs.  

    Jacobs and Radin were obsessed with becoming Hollywood movie producers. And when their paths collided, it led them to a tantalizing film deal promising fame and fortune. But then, a twisted script unfolded, plunging them into a million-dollar cocaine and cash heist, a tangled web of lies, and ultimately – murder.  

    The trail led investigators right to Hollywood's doorstep, linking former golden boy producer Robert Evans to the case and dredging up Radin's own troubled past.   But the case turned ice cold. It would take more than five years of dogged pursuit by the L.A. Sheriff’s Department detectives, a secret undercover witness, and another murder almost 3,000 miles from Hollywood – to unlock the truth.  

    This is the story of a doomed Hollywood partnership, a grisly murder and the search that stretched across the country for a killer – or killers.   From Wondery, and the team behind the hit series Hollywood & Crime: The Dating Game Killer, The Wonderland Murders, Death of Starlet, and the Execution of Bonny Lee Bakley comes a six part series that dives into the dark side of Hollywood through a shocking murder – fueled by ruthless ambition and desperate dreams. Co-hosted by Tracy Pattin and Josh Lucas.
