Welcome to Boston Confidential, Bean Towns, True Crime Podcast.

Boston is a great city, but there's more to it than the Freedom Trail in Fenway Park.

There's a startling underbelly to the city, and Boston Confidential will take you on a guided tour of the dark side of the Athens of America, Boston, Massachusetts.

Hey everybody, welcome back to Boston Confidential. My name is Barry McGuire, and I'm your host. I'm a 20-year private investigator on the streets of Boston, and I help run a company called Impact Due Diligence Investigations.

If you need anything in terms of investigative services,

feel free to contact me at Impact.

If I can't help you personally, I'll certainly direct you to the right person or agency.

All right, guys, let's get to it.

I just wanted to give a quick shout- out to this week's sponsor, Podcorn. Podcorn's a marketplace for podcasters and

advertisers. It's super simple to use. Everybody knows I'm not super technical and I can do it. I know

you can too. What happens is you just follow the prompts on their

website and advertisers end up coming to you. Getting paid is even easier. As soon as the episode posts,

the money is deposited in your bank account. It couldn't be any simpler. If you have a podcast,

give Podco on a try. You won't regret it. All right, guys,

on to the episode. I'm going to have to ask you to jump back into the way back machine with me today.

We're going back to 1995, and this is a tough case, and there's going to be some graphic moments here,

the story of Janet Downing from July 1995. Janet was a beautiful 42-year-old health care

worker. She was divorced with four children, and among them were

Aaron Downing, Ryan Downing, and Kerry Ann Downing. And I apologize. There appears to be another

male sibling. I just couldn't find a name for him. And I looked for it. I just couldn't find it.
