We went LIVE on YouTube for our 3rd Podaversary. If you missed it, here is the episode we recorded! We come at you with two cases.
First up:
Blanche Monnier was a beautiful young woman in France, who fell in love with a "penniless lawyer", according to her mother. She was locked in a room for 25 years to deter her from marrying this man. What police find, when they are informed of this horrific occurrence, is awful.

Then:
Sara Anne Wood was a 12 year old girl riding her bike home from a church function one summer day when she mysteriously went missing. Months of searching lead to nothing but then a serial killer enters the picture. Justice was served for Sara and an evil monster was taken off the streets. But Sara will forever be missed.
