A real estate agent is lured to a home with a potential buyer, only to be brutally murdered. This episode discusses the dangers often not discussed around working as a real estate professional and how this has changed over time.

Huge thank you to my friend Julia who gave first-hand insight into her perspective as a real estate agent herself.

A woman is about to make her final vows as a nun and is taking part in a spiritual retreat on Convent grounds to pray about her decision. One morning, she grabbed an apple and her Bible and walked up a hill less than 100 yards away from the Retreat House to sit on a bench and pray. Just hours later, her lifeless body would be discovered 40 feet away from that overturned bench. The brutal sexual assault and murder of a nun in a sacred religious space would spark fear and outrage. Nearly 50 years have passed, but thanks to carefully preserved DNA evidence, her case may finally soon get answers.

A mother arrives home where her 19-year-old daughter and 18 month old grandson are staying with her. She expects the house to be empty because her daughter is supposed to be at work and her grandson to the babysitters. But when she arrives home, she see's her daughter's car still in the driveway. Even more puzzling, the house is locked from the inside. Confusion turns to concern when she hears her grandson crying in the home and her daughter doesn't answer the door. After forcing her way into the home, she finds her grandson unharmed but no sign of her daughter. This case has gone on a roller-coaster of leads, but still remains one of the most confusing and bizarre cases the Quad City Region has ever seen.
