On a winter night in a small community near Denver, Colorado, Jim Matthews arrived home late.

He expected to find his 12-year-old daughter who had been dropped off after a Christmas concert.

But when he called out, hey, Janelle, the house was eerily quiet.

His daughter's shoes were on the floor but she was gone, and it would be 35 years before she

would be found dead. After the discovery of Janelle Matthews' body in 2019,

police turned their attention to a man who had told law enforcement years ago he knew something,

but they dismissed him. The man did seem obsessed with the case,

but is that all he was? A true crime fanatic? Or a killer?

tumbleweeds. Don't you feel rich in tumbleweeds? Yeah. Oh, shit. People tear ass down this road.

A few of the trucks passing us are souped up, brand new, tires jacked high, oil and gas workers

apparently unbothered by speed limits if there is a speed limit out here. We're relieved to turn

into a dirt driveway of a lone rambling house. Hi, guys. Hello again.
