Los Angeles, also known by its nickname The City of Angels, is thought by many to be one of the most glamourous places on earth. Home to the rich and famous, the Hollywood walk of fame and several success movie studios, thousands of people flock there with the hopes of making it big. Behind all the glitz and glamour, L.A is also the home of thousands of homeless people and has more than its fair share of violent crime. Today, we will be focusing on the dark side of the City of Angels as we uncover the unsolved murder of Reet Jurvetson.

If you have any information regarding Reet's murder, please contact the LAPD Cold Case Homicide Special Section 213-486-6810.

When I came across Patricia Newsom's case, I didn't think I was going to be able to cover it as there is very little information on her disappearance online. That was until her sister, Maryann Collette kindly agreed to come on this episode and discuss her sisters case. Thank you very much Maryann for participating in todays episode!

I'm sure many people listening to this can remember a time before mobile phones or cell phones, depending on what country you are in. It's hard to imagine a world without wireless technology now but back then, It wasn't as easy as sending a text saying "I'll see you in 5". We depended on landline phones and payphones if we needed to talk to people that we couldn’t see in person. Today, we will be discussing a young woman who, like many others, pulled over to use a payphone but was tragically abducted and has never been seen since. Let's uncover the unsolved disappearance of Angela Hammond.

If you have any information in the abduction of Angela Hammond, please call the Clinton Police Department at 660-885-5561.

Trigger warning. This episode discusses the murders and disappearances of children and also mentions child sexual abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

Many crime documentaries on TV portray serial killers as some sort of cold-blooded creature who only prey at night, like some kind of wild animal. I think the reason these programmes describe them this way is to try and put as much distance between them and us as possible, to lure us into a false sense of security that we won't ever come into contact with them and that we would know if we ever did see one in person, but this is far from the truth. To the outside world, these people seem to live very normal lives with normal jobs and normal families. They live on regular streets amongst unsuspecting neighbours, never in their wildest dreams imagining that they are in such close proximity to someone capable of the most horrendous crimes. The man we will be talking about today was one of these individuals. He did the unthinkable – sexually abusing and murdering children, yet he went undetected for over a decade and even over 40 years later, we still don’t know for sure how many victims he had. Today, we will be discussing the cases he is either suspected or thought to have committed as we uncover the cases that are possibly connected to Mack Ray Edwards.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Sheriff’s Department’s Homicide Bureau at (323) 890-5500 or the LAPD Cold Case Division at (213) 847-0970.

It's never just as easy as "just leaving" an abusive relationship. The fear of repercussions, not having anywhere to go and the emotional and mental torture that victims go through, being just a few reasons why. The only people that know exactly how hard it is are those who have been through it and they are often the best people to support those unfortunate enough to find themselves in that exact same situation. Sadly, the people who are trying their best to help get people out of dangerous situations can unknowingly find themselves in one. That is the main theory in today's case as we uncover the Keddie Cabin Murders.
