While hunting wild turkey in a remote National Forest in Virginia, a man stumbled upon a human corpse. The victim was 52-year-old Michael Kent Jamerson—but the true terror began only after his killer and supposed friend, Robert Gleason, was caught. Because for the state of Virginia, this murder was just the beginning of a far more disturbing plot…

On February 6th, 2019, Michael Cochran was found unresponsive on the kitchen floor of his West Virginia home. Rather than calling 911, his wife Natalie spent the day inviting friends and family over to assess his condition. Michael appeared to be sleeping—he was even snoring. But no matter how much they shook him and called out his name, he wouldn’t wake up…

Most of us trust that our legal system will deliver the right judgments and hold those who commit heinous crimes accountable. That trust extends to the support we expect to follow — the assumption that resources will be available after an unexpected tragedy. But the unfortunate truth is that not everyone is afforded these privileges, making the path to recovery and closure all the more complicated for survivors of violent crime who are left to pick up the pieces on their own. For the family of 70-year-old David Flaget, that journey was filled with obstacles. They were ultimately forced to take matters into their own hands in seeking justice after their beloved grandfather was murdered in a situation that was entirely preventable.

Trusting her instincts, she entered the residence—only to be met with one of the most grisly and horrific scenes imaginable. The ensuing investigation proved to be a twisting road of violence, religion, and bizarre tangents—all leading back to the person who was supposed to be the victim’s most trusted caretaker…

In 2016, police in Columbus, Ohio, were dispatched to a homeless encampment known as a "tent city" near the Scioto River. Upon arrival, they discovered a gruesome crime scene—the brutal murder of a camp resident, Cathleen Howatt. Her death set off a complex and tragic investigation, drawing in law enforcement, as well as Cathleen’s loved ones, into a web of conflicting accounts, substance abuse, and the harsh realities of life on the streets of Columbus. As authorities closed in on Cathleen’s killer, tensions escalated, leading to a dramatic and intense confrontation between detective and suspect.

Thank you to Peyton Williams and Jeanette Bradley for speaking with us.

In March 2017, a 25-year-old man in Dubuque, Iowa placed a frantic phone call to 911. He claimed his girlfriend had just died in front of him - by stabbing herself in the stomach. The next day, he was arrested and charged with her murder. But was her death a suicide or a homicide? The question would divide a community, send shockwaves through the courts, and pit two families against each other.

On October 23rd, 2022, 21-year-old Jared Dicus and 21-year-old Anggy Diaz posted a photo on Facebook that surprised their friends and family alike. It was a picture of Jared holding Anggy in his arms as they shared a kiss, celebrating the fact that they had just gotten married. This announcement came as a shock to their friends and family for a couple of reasons: first, no one was invited, and second, they had met less than a year ago. However, setting aside judgment, it appeared that the two truly loved each other, and perhaps this was just another story of love at first sight. Yet, despite how good things seemed, something dark was brewing beneath the surface, only to be revealed after a disturbing 911 call was made just a few months later.

When a wealthy businessman and his live-in friend were discovered dead in an upscale Arkansas neighborhood in 2002, the execution-style murders sent ripples across the country. Shortly after, a woman goes missing from her job in Salt Lake City, Utah. What connects these two horrific events is a single man and a lifetime of growing delusions, culminating in a shocking nine-year ordeal of violence and delayed justice.

On the afternoon of March 19th, 2018, residents in Lake Wales, Florida were going about their usual day-to-day business. Adults were just getting off work, kids were returning home from school, and others were finishing up their errands. But, around 3 PM, that all changed when waves of police and paramedics made their way to a neighborhood on the south side of town, surrounding a small field near Caloosa Blvd and Lake Blvd. As public interest grew and residents watched on, they learned that just beyond that field, in a small but dense area of trees, lay the dead body of 15-year-old Giovanni Diaz. As for the suspect, 16-year-old Dillen Murray, he was already in custody, claiming that he had beaten the boy to death in self-defense. It just so happened that the community themselves had far more information than investigators initially realized, helping to piece together the puzzle of how a hang out between friends turned deadly.

***We originally covered this case in an abbreviated “Felony Friday” mini-episode back in 2020. This is a follow-up full length rewrite now that the perpetrator has been sentenced and all investigative reports have been made publicly available.***
