In this episode, we journey into the dark heart of the Ozarks to unravel the story of Grant Hardin—a former police officer,who harbored a deadly secret. Known to some as a community leader, others would come to know him as something far more sinister: The Devil in the Ozarks. When beloved local man James Appleton was found shot in Arkansas, no one suspected the man behind the murder would be someone sworn to uphold the law.

In this episode we explore the heartbreaking case of Megan Kanka, a 7-year-old girl from Hamilton Township, New Jersey, whose 1994 murder shocked the nation and led to sweeping legal reform. Megan was lured into her neighbor’s home, assaulted, and murdered by Jesse Timmendequas, a convicted sex offender who lived across the street—unknown to her family and the community. The public outcry after her murder led to the creation of “Megan’s Law,” a set of policies requiring public notification of sex offenders living in the community.

In this episode, we dive into the story of David Copeland, the man behind a series of nail bomb attacks that terrorized London in 1999. Over the course of three consecutive weekends, Copeland targeted communities in Brixton, Brick Lane, and Soho — aiming to ignite a race war in Britain. We examine his early life, his descent into far-right extremism, and how a blend of psychological instability and ideological hatred led to a horrifying campaign that killed three people and injured over 100 others.
