Carey tried her best to comfort him. As the loudspeaker advised the waiting passengers that it was time to board, she playfully elbowed Nicholas in the ribs.
“Are you ready to go home?” she asked. Nicholas nodded. “Well, let’s get the fuck out of here,” she replied.

In the days before they moved out, John and Andrea Woods received a letter. After reading it herself, Andrea showed it to John. He disregarded it, crumpled the paper into a ball, and threw it in the trash. The letter had been signed by someone claiming to be “The Watcher.”

Happy New Year Patrons,
You asked - we listened. More Casefile, half the length... we are bringing back minisodes.
And you get to choose which episodes will be released. Below are three quotes from three different minisodes. Pick the one that intrigues you the most. The highest voted will be the one that drops.
The remaining two will go back into the draw with a new case.
Full disclosure - minisodes will be made available to the general audience at some point...
Just wondering if there are any patrons out there who might be able to assist us with some Icelandic pronunciations..........asking for a friend 👀
Let us know if you can help. Thank you.

It covers recent developments in the case and mentions incidents detailed in previous episodes. If you haven’t already, we recommend you go back and listen to the first five parts of Case 53: The East Area Rapist before proceeding with Part Six.

During the games third and penultimate quarter, Anthony was in the Sir Edwin Smith grandstand when two young girls emerged from the crowd and bounded down the steps towards ground level. One was a preteen while the younger of the pair looked barely five-years-old. Anthony stepped aside to let them pass.

As John woke, he saw heavy curtains of smoke wafting through his bedroom. He scrambled out of bed and rushed out the door. The smoke was rising up the staircase from the ground floor below. It was accompanied by a noise that sounded like heavy breathing or snoring.

On Thursday July 22 1999, 50 FBI agents arrived in Foresta on the western edge of Yosemite National Park. The wintery conditions that had clouded the region months earlier had since dissipated, replaced by warmer weather and greener scenery. The area where the female human remains were found was relatively unknown to tourists. Its dense woodland and grassy meadows were split by a rushing stream. The granite summits of Yosemite Valley were visible in the distance.

In early 1998, three Finnish tourists were sound asleep at the Cedar Lodge hotel near California’s Yosemite National Park. The trio consisted of two young girls and an older woman who was acting as their guardian. At around 2AM, they woke to the sound of something rattling. It wasn’t particularly loud, but the hotel's remote setting, surrounded by acres of woodland, meant that even quiet noises could cut through the silence like a buzzsaw.

Steve was mildly surprised to find Beverly had sent him a letter out of the blue. The brief note contained the following message:
“I just want to say goodbye to you, and the kids, and let you know that what I am doing is the right thing. This is what I need at this point in my life, so don’t worry… When I come back, I will be a much better and happier person.”

When recording this episode, we experienced technical difficulties and had to switch from USB to phone recording (around 12 minutes in).
There is a noticeable change in sound quality because of that.
Thank you for your understanding!

In April 1977, Bev Roberts was anxiously awaiting the Easter long weekend. Her younger brother, Russell Martin, had abruptly left town earlier that year - leaving behind his wife and four young children. It wasn’t out of character for Russell to take off from time to time, but he always kept in touch. This time, no one had heard from him.

Before she left, her manager asked if she could stay a little longer to cover for another employee who had just called in sick. Friday evenings were always busy and the restaurant couldn’t afford to be understaffed. Laura would only have to stay until someone else could be found to work the entire shift.
