Summary

In this very special episode, we collaborate with Women & Crime to discuss the case of Ezra McCandless. In 2018, an 89-year-old dairy farmer in Wisconsin was sitting down for dinner when there was banging on his front door. He opened it to find 19-year-old Ezra McCandless bloodied, bruised, and panicking after escaping an attack. Most bizarre, the word "BOY" was carved into her arm... What happened? A special thank you to Meghan & Amy with Women and Crime podcast. Listen to them on Spotify, Apple, or YouTube.
