    Aug 21 2024
    It was a typical Summer evening in Pensacola, Florida, in 1983. A group of friends gathered for dinner when suddenly, a loud explosion rocked the city streets. Who knew that a car bombing would unravel a twisted, tangled web of lies and mysterious deaths that would all lead back to one, deranged woman.

  • 109: Who Killed Sigrid Stevenson?
    Aug 7 2024
    In 1977, a young graduate student was found naked and beaten on the main stage in the campus theatre. With little to go on, the case quickly turned cold, and despite numerous reopenings over the decades, we still have no answers.
    Can you solve this mystery?

    If you have any information about the murder of Sigrid Stevenson in September of 1977, please contact the Ewing Police Department at 609-882-1313.
