SERIAL KILLER: "The Backpacker Murderer" Ivan Milat Pt. 1
Ivan Milat grew up in a volatile Sydney household surrounded by weapons, abuse, and fourteen siblings. By his teens, he was already hurting animals, and allegedly...people. After a series of robberies, a sexual assault, and a faked suicide, Milat walked free from every charge and used steady road work to move unseen through Australia's most isolated stretches of highway. This episode traces how years of escaping consequences shaped one of Australia's most terrifying serial killers.

UNSOLVED: The Hinterkaifeck Murders 1
In 1922, six members of the same family were found murdered on their isolated farmstead in the Bavarian countryside, killed one by one with a pickaxe. In the days before their deaths, the family had noticed strange and frightening signs: footprints in the snow, footsteps in the attic, and the unshakable feeling that someone was watching them. But they never made it out alive, and their killer was never caught. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy introduces the family at the center of one of Europe's most haunting unsolved mysteries, the eerie warnings that preceded the massacre, and the quiet farm that became the scene of an unthinkable crime.

Brianna Maitland: The Car at the Farmhouse
On March 19, 2004, 17-year-old Brianna Maitland finished her shift at the Black Lantern Inn in Vermont and drove into the night. An hour later, her car was seen backed into an abandoned farmhouse on a rural stretch of Route 118. When police got there, they found her belongings still inside. But there was no crash, no struggle, and no Brianna. Two decades later, investigators have never publicly named a suspect, though rumors about local criminal networks have never stopped circulating. This is the story of a young woman who left work and drove into a mystery Vermont has never solved.

CONSPIRACY THEORY: Brazil's UFO Cover-Up: The Varginha Incident feat. Laurah Norton from One Strange Thing
In January 1996, the small Brazilian city of Varginha became the center of one of the most famous UFO stories in South American history. Multiple witnesses, including three young women, reported seeing a strange creature with a large head and red eyes lurking in the streets, while others claimed the military had captured one or more living beings and recovered a crashed craft. As soldiers reportedly swarmed the area and a young military police officer who allegedly handled a creature later died under murky circumstances, the official denials only deepened public suspicion that something was being covered up. To this day, Varginha is often called the "Brazilian Roswell." In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson is joined by Laurah Norton of One Strange Thing to investigate the Varginha incident, the witnesses who swore they saw something otherworldly, and the alleged government cover-up that turned a small city into a permanent fixture of UFO lore.

NXIVM
In 1998, a self-proclaimed genius named Keith Raniere launched a self-help company outside Albany, New York, and thousands of people handed over their savings, their schedules, and their secrets to be part of it. In the first of our 3-part series on NXIVM, Katie Ring traces the origins of Keith Raniere: the ordinary suburban man who fabricated an entire identity, built a pyramid scheme, and partnered with a credentialed therapist to turn a self-help business into a machine designed to make people obey.

The Monster of Florence
For this episode, Vanessa and Dr. Engels are joined by Alexis Linkletter, co-hose of Crime House's newest show Crimes of Reddit. In 1968, a young couple was shot dead in the Italian countryside while their six-year-old son slept in the back seat: a crime that quietly launched one of Italy's most haunting serial killing sprees. For over a decade, a gunman stalked couples parked in remote areas outside Florence, leaving behind little evidence and a signature pattern of brutal mutilation. When investigators finally linked the crimes through a single .22-caliber Beretta pistol, the trail led back to that very first murder.

Kevin Collins: The Last Walk Home
On February 10, 1984, 10-year-old Kevin Collins left basketball practice at St. Agnes School in San Francisco and began the short, familiar walk home through the Sunset District. Multiple witnesses recalled seeing him speaking with an unknown man near a schoolyard. He never made it home. Despite one of the largest searches in San Francisco history — roadblocks, helicopters, hundreds of volunteers — no physical trace of Kevin was ever found. A known sex offender was investigated for years and stood trial in the 1990s, but was acquitted for lack of evidence. The Collins family, and an entire city, never got their answer.

Where Is the Ark: The Covenant's Hiding Place
According to the Bible, the Ark of the Covenant was a gold-covered chest built to hold the Ten Commandments, an object of such immense divine power that it could level cities and strike down anyone who touched it. Then, sometime after the destruction of the First Temple in Jerusalem, it vanished from history. For thousands of years, the question of what happened to it has fueled legends and obsessive searches, with some claiming it lies hidden in a church in Ethiopia, others pointing to secret chambers beneath Jerusalem, and still others insisting it sits locked away in the vaults of the Vatican. Faith institutions have guarded its mystery for centuries, neither confirming nor denying what they may know. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson explores the legend of the Ark of the Covenant, the competing theories about where it ended up, and the enduring belief that one of history's most powerful relics may still be out there, waiting to be found.

Andrew Gosden: The One-Way Ticket
On September 14, 2007, 14-year-old Andrew Gosden left his Doncaster home as if heading to school, doubled back once his family left, changed clothes, withdrew £200 in cash, and bought a one-way train ticket to London. CCTV cameras caught him arriving alone at King's Cross Station. After he walked out of that station, he was never seen again. Andrew was described as academically brilliant, deeply private, and deeply reserved. He left behind his charger and packed almost nothing — as if he hadn't planned to be gone long. In one of the most surveilled cities in the world, a boy simply vanished.

The Pizza Connection
For nearly a decade, the Sicilian Mafia ran the largest heroin pipeline in the world, hiding it inside something as ordinary as the neighborhood pizza parlor. Morphine was bought in Turkey, refined into heroin in Sicily, smuggled into the United States, and sold through family-owned pizzerias across the American Northeast, while the profits were laundered through banks in New York, the Bahamas, and Switzerland. The operation moved an estimated $1.65 billion in drugs before the FBI, aided by an undercover agent who had spent years embedded inside the Bonanno crime family, coordinated arrests across four countries in a single day. The trial that followed lasted seventeen months, one defendant was murdered before it ended, and the star witness became the first made man in history to break the Mafia's code of silence. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa Richardson unravels the Pizza Connection, the vast criminal network hidden behind storefront counters, and the investigation that brought it crashing down.
