    MYSTERY: Dating Game Killer

    In the late 1970s, a charming amateur photographer named Rodney Alcala appeared on the popular TV show The Dating Game, flashing a quick smile and winning a date with the bachelorette. What the audience didn't know was that the contestant lighting up their screens was already a serial killer. For years, Alcala had used his camera to lure women and children, charming them with compliments and the promise of a modeling shoot before turning violent. He slipped through the system again and again, serving short sentences and talking his way past parole boards while leaving a trail of victims across California and New York. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy traces the chilling double life of the Dating Game Killer, the manipulation and missed chances that let him keep killing for years, and the disturbing collection of photographs he left behind. Please note, this episode contains descriptions of sexual violence and child abuse and may not be suitable for all audiences.

    SOLVED: The Colonial Parkway Murders 2

    In Part 2 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy follows the decades-long hunt for the killer behind the Colonial Parkway Murders. For years, the four cases went nowhere, plagued by jurisdictional turf wars, false leads, and a string of suspects who turned out to be dead ends, including two men who inserted themselves into the families' grief only to exploit it. Refusing to let the case die, the victims' families applied relentless public pressure on the FBI and Virginia State Police. Then the same genetic genealogy breakthrough that caught the Golden State Killer gave investigators a new path forward, leading at last to a name. But the answers came late and incomplete, with some families finally learning who killed their loved ones and others still waiting, decades later, for any resolution at all.

    SOLVED: The Colonial Parkway Murders 1

    Between 1986 and 1989, four young couples were murdered or vanished along the same 23-mile stretch of road in Virginia known as the Colonial Parkway. A scenic route through the state's Historic Triangle by day, the parkway became a place of terror by night, drawing couples seeking privacy and a killer who seemed to know exactly where to find them. The victims ranged in age from 14 to 27, and the cases shared eerie similarities: abandoned cars, isolated locations, and signs that the attacker may have posed as law enforcement to get close. But the differences left investigators wondering whether they were chasing one serial killer or several. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy introduces the eight young victims, the dark and lonely road that connected their deaths, and the chilling pattern that left an entire region afraid to pull off the highway after dark.

    MYSTERY: TalHotBlond

    In 2005, 46-year-old Thomas Montgomery logged onto an online gaming site, pretended to be an 18-year-old Marine, and fell into an intense romance with a young woman who called herself Jessi. What started as a fantasy quickly curdled into obsession. When Jessi began talking to one of Thomas's younger coworkers, jealousy consumed him, and in September 2006, that obsession turned deadly. But the murder was only the beginning of the story, because almost nothing about this online love triangle was real, and the truth about who Jessi actually was would stun everyone involved. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy is joined by Sabrina Deana-Roga, host of Crimes of Reddit, to trace one of the earliest and most infamous catfishing cases in American history, the layers of deception that fueled it, and the innocent man who paid the price for a fantasy built entirely on lies. Please note, this episode contains discussion of suicidal ideation and may not be suitable for all audiences.

    SOLVED: The Model Student Murderer Pt. 1

    From the outside, Jennifer Pan was the perfect daughter. She brought home straight A's, won swimming trophies and piano awards, and seemed destined for a career in medicine, exactly the future her strict immigrant parents had demanded. But almost none of it was real. Over years, Jennifer built an elaborate web of lies to hide failing grades, a secret boyfriend, and a life that looked nothing like the one her parents believed she was living. As the deceptions piled up and the walls began to close in, she came to believe there was only one way out. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy traces Jennifer's transformation from a gifted, obedient child into a young woman trapped by impossible expectations and her own mounting lies, and the suffocating pressure that set the stage for an unthinkable plan.

    MYSTERY: Serial Killer Grandparents

    In rural Missouri, Ray and Faye Copeland looked like any other elderly farming couple, churchgoing, weathered, and unremarkable to the neighbors who waved at them from the road. But behind that ordinary facade was one of the most disturbing operations in American criminal history. The Copelands hired drifters and transient men to help on their farm, used them to write bad checks for cattle, and then murdered them to cover their tracks. By the time investigators uncovered the truth, they had found the bodies of five men buried on and around the property, and Ray and Faye, both in their seventies, became the oldest couple ever sentenced to death in the United States. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy examines the case that shattered every assumption about who is capable of violence, the victims no one came looking for, and the quiet farm where a seemingly harmless old couple hid a killing operation in plain sight.

    UNSOLVED: The Galapagos Affair 2

    By the spring of 1934, the small colony of European settlers on the Galapagos island of Floreana was tearing itself apart. A relentless drought had withered the crops, the self-proclaimed Baroness was abusing her companions, and the tiny island had become a pressure cooker of resentment, jealousy, and fear. Then people started to vanish. The Baroness and one of her lovers disappeared overnight, and the story given by the remaining settlers didn't match what the others claimed to have heard that day. Months later, two more bodies turned up mummified on a barren island they had no business being on, and a strict vegetarian doctor was suddenly dead from a few bites of spoiled chicken. In Part 2 of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy is joined by Daisy Eagan, host of Strange and Unexplained, to follow the chain of deaths and disappearances that destroyed the Floreana colony, the wildly conflicting accounts the survivors took to their graves, and one of the strangest unsolved mysteries of the 20th century.

    UNSOLVED: The Galapagos Affair 1

    In 1929, a German doctor named Friedrich Ritter and his partner, Dore Strauch, sailed to the uninhabited island of Floreana in the Galapagos to escape what they believed was the worst of human nature. For two years, they had the place to themselves. Then, drawn by Friedrich's articles in the European press, other settlers began to follow. A practical German family arrived in 1932, then a self-styled Austrian Baroness with two younger lovers, who declared the island her personal kingdom and announced plans for a luxury hotel. Within months, the tiny colony was buckling under jealousy, accusations, and the kind of grudges that have nowhere to go on an island just a few miles wide. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy is joined by Daisy Eagan, host of Strange and Unexplained, to trace the rise of the so-called paradise, the strange settlers who built it, and the slow unraveling that would soon turn the Enchanted Islands into one of the strangest unsolved cases of the 20th century.

    MYSTERY: JonBenét Ramsey

    On the morning of December 26th, 1996, 6-year-old beauty queen JonBenét Ramsey was found beaten and strangled in the basement of her family's home in Boulder, Colorado. A long, strange ransom note had been left on the back stairs, written on paper from inside the house. What followed was one of the most chaotic investigations in modern American history. The crime scene was contaminated within hours, the press declared the family guilty before anyone was charged, and detectives clashed bitterly with prosecutors over who to focus on. Nearly three decades later, no one has ever been convicted of killing JonBenét. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy revisits one of the most polarizing unsolved cases in American history, the investigative missteps that haunted it from day one, and the question that still divides the public: was JonBenét killed by an intruder, or by someone she knew?
