Crime Story

In the winter of 2002, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency received an anonymous tip: somebody had seen bones on a property in Noble, Georgia, and they thought they might be human. 

Eventually, a police investigation would unearth the remains of more than 300 people.

In a different kind of story, this property might belong to America’s most prolific serial killer. But none of these people were murdered – they had been sent there to be cremated. 

In his podcast Noble, Shaun Raviv tries to understand what happened more than two decades ago at Tri State Crematory and wrestles with the question: what do the living owe the dead?

339 bodies in the woods: the Noble crematory story

In 2012, Edmonton police released audio of Amber Tuccaro, a young woman from Mikisew Cree First Nation who went missing a year and a half earlier. On the tape, you hear Amber speaking to someone as they drive. And even more eerie, you hear the voice of the man that most people believe murdered her. 

Reporter Jana Pruden joins Crime Story to discuss why hearing that haunting tape drove her to investigate Amber’s story.

The voice of a killer? What a taped call says about Amber Tuccaro's disappearance.

For more than three decades, Peter Walaschek has been on the run. In the late 1980’s, during the Iran-Iraq war, Walaschek admitted to selling illegal chemicals used to make mustard gas to the Iranian regime. But he wasn’t a professional weapons dealer or a career criminal. He was a pharmacist who happened to really hate his office job. 

Reporter Chloe Hadjimatheou joins Crime Story to explain what it was like sitting across from the international fugitive, and how, Walaschek says, he went from working in a pharmacy in Germany to visiting the battlefields of Iran.

Crime Story will be back in the new year with brand new episodes. To keep you company over the holidays, we're bringing you episode one of Bad Results.

They needed certainty. They got chaos. For over a decade, countless people from at least five different countries put their trust in a company offering prenatal paternity tests. It promised clients “99.9% accuracy” — but then routinely, for over a decade, identified the wrong biological fathers.

Investigative journalists Jorge Barrera and Rachel Houlihan track down the people whose lives were torn apart by these bad results, the shattered families and acrimonious court cases that followed, and the story behind the company that continues to stand by its testing and is still operating today.

More episodes of Bad Results are available here.

Audience Favourite | In Her Defence: When the accused is also a victim

Amy, a seasoned doula, is bedridden due to illness when she receives a call from fellow doula Katie to assist a client, Kaitlyn, over the phone. Kaitlyn is pregnant as a result of sexual assault and has just learned her baby will be stillborn. Over the next 10 days, Amy and Katie are swept into Kaitlyn's escalating crises — bleeding disorders, a hysterectomy, cancer, and seemingly predatory doctors — while supporting her emotionally, over the phone. Despite exhaustion and their own trauma, they unquestioningly focus on Kaitlyn's needs. However, when Amy’s girlfriend points out strange details in Kaitlyn's story, alarm bells ring. A dog barks during a call where Kaitlyn claims she’s in the hospital, and photos Kaitlyn sent of her stillborn are traced back to Wikipedia. Something isn't right.

Content warning: This episode contains references to medical emergencies, including baby loss. We also deal with sexual assault and there is some strong language.

The Con: Kaitlyn's Baby | Episode 1

There is no shortage of scam artists, catfishers, and grifters in true crime.

Usually, they’re looking for money, sex, or fame.

But Kaitlyn Braun was a different kind of con artist all together.

Over the course of two years, Braun tricked more than 50 birthworkers into thinking she was pregnant. She’d take them on wild, unpredictable rides through traumatic pregnancies (and births) that turned out to be completely fabricated.

In The Con: Kaitlyn’s Baby, journalist Sarah Treleaven (Madness of Two, Unrestorable) tries to figure out what could possibly lead someone to do something like this.

Introducing Crime Story

In 2018, author Gilbert King received a tip from a Florida judge that there was a man in prison serving a life sentence he didn’t deserve. King’s pursuit of that lead became Bone Valley—a remarkable podcast about cold blooded murder, the deeply flawed conviction of Leo Schofield and a relentless pursuit of the truth.
