A Simpler Time True Crime
Join me each week as I discuss an unsolved case from the early 2000' and before. I discuss the illusion of safety in the days of lighter technology and explore the ways modern advancements could solve some of these cases.
Each episode will have you asking "It may have been a simpler time, but was it a safer one?"
A Simpler Time True Crime
The Mysterious Disappearance and Murder of Judy Smith
A woman travels with her husband from Boston to Philadelphia to attend his work conference. She decides to do a day of sightseeing while he works. When she fails to meet back at the hotel on their agreed upon time, alarm bells go off in her husbands head. Police eager to show that this is a city safe for tourists urgently hit the streets but come up empty, shifting focus back to her husband and even insinuating that she never was in Philadelphia at all. But nobody could prepare for what came next and ultimately the question still lingers: who murdered Judy, how did her body get 600 miles away, and why?
