Lingering Silence: The Setagaya Murders and the Yuba County Five
In this episode, we explore two of the most perplexing mysteries in modern true crime: the Setagaya Family Murders and the disappearance of the Yuba County Five.
First, we travel to Tokyo, Japan, where an entire family was brutally killed inside their home on New Year’s Eve 2000. Despite an extraordinary amount of forensic evidence left behind by the perpetrator, the case remains unsolved more than two decades later, raising questions about motive, identity, and what investigators may have missed.
Next, we examine the baffling case of the Yuba County Five. In 1978, five friends vanished after attending a basketball game in California. Months later, investigators discovered their abandoned car and a series of disturbing clues deep in the mountains. What happened during their final journey remains the subject of intense debate and speculation.
From unexplained decisions to elusive suspects, both cases challenge conventional explanations and continue to captivate investigators and armchair detectives alike.
Join us as we examine the evidence, the leading theories, and the unanswered questions that keep these mysteries alive decades later.

Where the Trail Ends: The Disappearance of Asha Degree and the Harris County Does
A young girl vanishes into the night along a North Carolina highway. In Texas, unidentified victims discovered over decades remain without names, histories, or justice. In this episode, we examine two haunting cases that continue to trouble investigators and true crime communities alike: the unexplained disappearance of Asha Degree and the mysteries surrounding the Harris County Does.
We explore the timelines, strange circumstances, key evidence, and unanswered questions that have kept these investigations alive for years. From sightings that led nowhere to victims whose identities were lost in silence, both stories reveal how difficult it can be to uncover the truth when crucial pieces are missing.
This episode also looks at the emotional toll on families, investigators, and communities still searching for answers decades later. What happened to Asha Degree? And who were the Harris County Does before they became cold cases?

Scene of Silence: The Unexplained Killing of Ronni Chasen
In November 2010, Ronni Chasen—a respected Hollywood publicist known for representing some of the industry’s biggest names—was shot and killed while driving home through Beverly Hills. The crime shocked Los Angeles, not just for its brutality, but for how little sense it seemed to make.
In this episode, we examine the strange and still-debated circumstances surrounding Chasen’s death. Authorities quickly pointed to a possible robbery gone wrong, naming a suspect who died by suicide shortly after being identified. But many close to the case have long questioned that conclusion.
Was it truly a random act of violence, or is there more beneath the surface? We explore the timeline, the evidence, and the lingering doubts that continue to surround one of Hollywood’s most puzzling modern murders.
More than a decade later, the case remains a source of speculation—raising uncomfortable questions about how some investigations are closed, and whether justice was ever truly served.
