Episode 61: I See Your True Colors (Rita Hester/Don Henry & Kevin Ives)
On this episodes our virtual true crime road trips lead us to Massachusetts and Arkansas.
After covering a listener write-in and a couple of updates, O'Dell kicks things off with the murder of Rita Hester, a transgendered woman who was stabbed 20 times. Her murder sparked the Transgender Day of Awareness, but her killer has never been apprehended.
Erin follows up with a story that sounds like it could have been the inspiration for Ozark. Two teen boys went out hunting one night and never came home. Their bodies were hit by a train because they had been placed on railroad tracks. Authorities deemed it an accident, but it obviously wasn't. Corruption runs deep on this case!
We close things out with an in memoriam about a death caused by a beard, a palette cleanser about mistaken identity and a shower thought.
