Summary

From 2013 to 2016, a series of high-profile crimes shook the region of Bardstown, Kentucky. But predating all of them was a mysterious murder.

Daniel Cahoe was a 34-year old father, who was known to live as a bit of a drifter. Kindhearted and simple-minded, Daniel was known for his helpful spirit and his love of the outdoors.

On January 5th, 2012, Daniel's remains were found in a barn out in rural Spencer County. Police and loved ones had no idea how Daniel had gotten out there - or why he had done so - but his death has left investigators bewildered in the years since...


This is the fifth episode in a new Unresolved series, Bardstown - Revisited. I originally covered some Bardstown stories back in 2016, but have yet to touch upon Daniel's story.


Written, hosted, and produced by Micheal Whelan

For years, the region has been hummed in numerous bizarre mysteries, each of which is more

1:15.7

And tied into each incident is a group of loved ones left without any answers, who simply

1:24.9

want to learn what happened.
