We've all heard the phrase, that kind of thing doesn't happen in our town.

But here on Midwest murder, we will shatter that false reality.

In fact, it happens more often than we know.

And sometimes, the details of the most horrific crimes that happen in our neighborhoods

are lost in the back pages of newspapers, forgotten on our news channels, and eventually erased

over time. We are here to talk about murder diving into some of the most controversial cases

in Midwest history. The show will not shy away from the morbid details of these horrific events

and the often ugly truths behind them.

What you will hear is a detailed timeline of events, perspectives from those closely involved,

and analysis by experts.

What you will feel is the darkness that surrounds each story, the innocence lost by the victims,

and hopefully the justice that was ultimately delivered.
