Case 297: Bluebelle
Added 2024-09-14 07:44:39 +0000 UTCWhen the crew of an oil tanker discover a man lost at sea on November 13 1961, he tells them a harrowing tale. His name is Captain Julian Harvey, and he’s the sole survivor of a yachting disaster: his wife Mary and the Duperraults, a family of five who had chartered the yacht, were all lost when their boat, the Bluebelle, caught on fire and sank. But several days later, another survivor, 11-year-old Terry Jo Duperrault is found… and she has a very different story to tell.

2024-09-16 12:01:00 +0000 UTCThis is great and everything-- I too am an old fashioned troll, as anyone here will attest-- but the rest of us are trying to listen to an Australian man's sensual purr as he talks about dead people, maybe go try your luck on reddit

2024-09-16 07:14:28 +0000 UTCI think my issue is the stories they choose to cover as of late. Especially after a month long break, it builds up hype and expectations. I expect them to come out with bangers. That's my fault. Also, I still feel a bit duped since that catfish episode. I mean the people in that case weren't even good looking.

2024-09-16 01:48:14 +0000 UTCI think you are forgetting these are REAL CASES involving REAL PEOPLE. Not every episode is going to be tied in a nice little bow so you have some closure or resolution. There are many streaming services available to watch or listen to fictional stories. If you would like to ensure that cases have justice, I suggest a career in policing, justice or similar.

2024-09-15 23:07:33 +0000 UTCIt's an amazing thing that Tere was able to transform such a harrowing experience into a deeper connection with the ocean's power and beauty. There is a photo of her when she was rescued if you google the incident and it's just exactly as Casey described. Crazy.

2024-09-15 21:22:41 +0000 UTCI’ve been so thrilled with the choice in cases lately. Really unusual and unique stories I haven’t heard anywhere else. Please keep it up!

2024-09-15 13:34:06 +0000 UTCI know My Favorite Murder did this story. That’s the first time I had ever heard about this.

2024-09-15 13:33:46 +0000 UTCIs this an old episode or did I hear this story on another podcast maybe?

2024-09-15 13:19:00 +0000 UTCSo sorry 4+ people being murdered wasn't satisfying enough for you :(
SalBee
2024-09-15 11:11:08 +0000 UTCCouldn’t agree more! Kind of getting sick of these long winded episodes with no resolution, this one didn’t even have a court case or any real investigation. Being partial in the telling of a story doesn’t always make you sound good.

2024-09-15 02:42:03 +0000 UTCLoved this one, was always wondering if Casefile would take their own unique spin on it. Great work as always!
