What's up you guys? I'm Haley, and this is Inhuman, a true crime podcast.

0:04.8

Welcome back everybody. I hope that your week has been better than mine in

0:30.8

Andrea's. It has been freaking nuts over here, but things are looking up. We are on the

0:35.8

up and up, and I have a new episode today. It's a very sad story, but I think that it's an important

0:43.2

one to share. So today we are going to be talking about the murder of Sydney Sutherland, a 25-year-old

0:50.5

woman who was out for a run when she was abducted and murdered. And when I heard about this case,

0:56.9

first it kind of reminded me of the Sherry Papini case, not because Sydney Sutherland

1:48.4

compelled to share her story. We also just passed the third anniversary of her murder, and I can't

1:53.8

believe I'd never heard of her or this case. So with that, let's get into it. Sydney Clare Sutherland

2:00.5

was born on September 18, 1995 to Dion and Maggie Sutherland. She grew up on her family farm in

2:07.2

Grubbs, Arkansas, with her two older brothers. Sydney was smart and outgoing, and during her high

school years at Tuckerman High School, she was involved in Spanish club, played softball,
