    The Setagaya Family Murders
    May 22 2025
    On the night of December 30th, 2000, in the quiet suburbs of Tokyo, a family prepared to ring in the new year. Mikio and Yasuko Miyazawa, along with their two young children—8-year-old Niina and 6-year-old Rei—were at home, winding down the final hours of the 20th century. But someone else was in the house. Sometime between nightfall and dawn, a killer entered their home. What happened next would become one of Japan’s most disturbing and mysterious unsolved murders. All four family members were brutally killed in their own home. And yet—what truly confused investigators wasn’t just the violence. It was what the killer did after the murders. He stayed… He ate their food… He used their toilet. He might have even taken a nap on the family’s couch. And when he finally left, he didn’t bother to clean up. He left behind his clothing, his blood, and his DNA. And still—he was never found. I’m Courtney Fretwell, and this is Find My Killer. Today, we unravel the case that left Japan in shock—and ask: how does a killer leave so much behind... and still vanish without a trace? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Carina Saunders

    Carina Saunders
    May 8 2025
    It started with a missing person report — a 19-year-old woman last seen getting into a red Ford truck near Oklahoma City. Just two weeks later, the horror truly began. In October 2011, the dismembered remains of Carina Saunders were discovered stuffed inside a duffel bag behind a grocery store in Oklahoma City. What followed was a tangled web of suspects, rumors of drug cartels and sex trafficking, and a case that spiraled into chaos, confusion, and controversy. Arrests were made, then dropped. Witnesses vanished, and leads went cold. More than a decade later, the question still remains: who killed Carina Saunders — and why? In this week’s episode of Find My Killer, I revisit the chilling timeline and examine the lengthy investigation. Was this a random act of brutality, or was she silenced to send a message? If you have any information regarding the unsolved murder of Carina Saunders, please contact the OSBI at 1-800-522-8017. You can also email them at tips@osbi.ok.gov Learn more about your ad choices.

    Father's Day Bank Massacre
    Apr 24 2025
    #11 - On a quiet Sunday morning in 1990, as families across Denver celebrated Father's Day, an audacious crime unfolded behind the locked doors of the United Bank Tower. When the vault was finally opened later that day, $200,000 was gone, and four people were left for dead. What seemed like an open-and-shut case quickly spiraled into one of the most baffling unsolved heists and murders in Colorado history. Despite a nationwide manhunt, FBI involvement, and decades of speculation, the full truth behind the Father's Day bank massacre remains buried. In this episode, I dive deep into the timeline of the murders and explore the suspects and theories. Were the murders committed by someone who worked at the bank? Was it an inside job? Or something far more sinister? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Murder of Molly Bish

    Murder of Molly Bish
    Apr 10 2025
    On the morning of June 27, 2000, 16-year-old Molly Bish was dropped off by her mother at Comins Pon in Warren, Massachusettes, where she worked as a lifeguard. Her mother noticed a strange man in a white car near the parking lot but thought little of it at the time. Later that day, visitors to the pond found the lifeguard empty and reported it. Molly was nowhere to be found. The search for Molly Bish became the largest and most expensive search for a missing person in Massachusetts history at the time. Despite extensive efforts, no trace of Molly was found until three years later, in June 2003, when her remains were found in the words of Palmer, Massachusettes. Although there have been a number of suspects named in her murder over the years, no one has even been arrested or charged. Who killed 16-year-old Milly Bish that summer day?

    Mar 13 2025
    Part 3 of the Death of Ricky McCormick - "The Notes" On June 30th, 1999, Ricky McCormick was found dead in a remote Missouri cornfield. Although the medical examiner was unable to come up with an exact cause of death, the police have always suspected foul play. Throughout Ricky's 41 years on earth, he found himself in trouble with the law and ran in some sketchy circles of friends that might have contributed to his untimely death. But Ricky's social life and criminal record aren't what makes this case so mysterious. While searching Ricky's pockets after his body was found in the cornfield, the authorities discovered two pieces of paper. But they weren't just any pieces of paper. They were written in a secret code that not even the FBI could crack. What do these notes mean, and how was Ricky McCormick killed? If Ricky could talk, he would ask us to "Find My Killer."
