Crime House 24/7

On December 18, 2011, twenty-three-year-old Phoenix Coldon got into her car in St. Louis, Missouri and drove off the map. Her car was found the same day, abandoned with the engine still running and her belongings inside. Phoenix was not. No confirmed sightings. No credible leads. No body. Her mother Goldia has spent over a decade searching for answers with almost no support from authorities. For today's first Unsolved Tuesday episode, Morgan Absher and Kaelyn Moore sit with the silence of one of Missouri's most haunting cold cases, and ask why a young Black woman could vanish into thin air without the world demanding she be found.

For more than 30 years, Dennis Rader terrorized Wichita, Kansas,living a double life as a devoted husband, church leader, and Scoutmaster by day, and a sadistic killer by night. As he taunted police and played a deadly game of cat and mouse, Rader’s arrogance would ultimately become his undoing. In this shocking conclusion for today's Killer of the Week, Vanessa and Dr. Engels break down the psychology of a man driven by control, secrecy, and a need for fame... and the digital mistake that finally ended his reign as the BTK Killer.

A disturbing look into how a seemingly ordinary man became a master of deception and murder.

In the first of our four-part limited series "Campus Crimes," Vanessa breaks down the 1905 murder of Jane Stanford, co-founder of Stanford University, who was poisoned to death in a Honolulu hotel room. A coroner's jury ruled it murder, the evidence was clear, and the prime suspect had motive and opportunity. But the university's own president intervened, hired a compliant doctor, and replaced a murder verdict with "heart failure" in a cover-up that held for a hundred years.

What began as a self-help movement for ambitious women became one of the most disturbing cults in modern history. Led by so-called guru Keith Raniere, NXIVM lured in Hollywood stars, heiresses, and professionals — only to trap them in a secret society built on control, blackmail, and abuse. For today's second episode, join Vanessa Richardson as she unravels how NXIVM’s “executive success” seminars turned into a nightmare of branding, manipulation, and modern-day slavery.
