The Unsolved Murder of JFK's Mistress
In October 1964, Mary Pinchot Meyer — artist, Washington socialite, and rumored lover of President John F. Kennedy — was found murdered along the C&O Canal in Georgetown. Her killing was quickly labeled a random crime, but the evidence tells a far darker story. In this episode of Unsolved Cases by Skoob, we uncover the shocking connections between Mary Meyer, the CIA, JFK, and a missing diary believed to contain explosive secrets about power, peace, and assassination. From covert intelligence operations and a possible frame-up, to a trial that exposed glaring inconsistencies, this case raises one haunting question: Was Mary Meyer silenced because she knew too much? Ray Crump was acquitted. The diary vanished. The truth was buried.

In this episode of Unsolved Cases by Skoob, host Larry Hunter explores one of the most haunting mysteries connected to 9/11. Was Sneha a heroic doctor who ran toward the chaos to help the injured? Did she disappear for reasons unrelated to the attacks? Or does the truth lie somewhere in between?
