About This Podcast

Small Towns. Heinous Crimes. We are exploring the crimes that rocked small communities. Chris & Gina are a married couple who discuss real crimes from their area and other midwest towns in an unscripted format. Gina researches the cases and writes the blog, but the podcast is completely unscripted and Chris usually has no knowledge of the case before hand. His reactions are raw and real.
