(5:24) - William Neil McCasland Update
(11:30) - Nichol Olsen

Three gunshots.

A locked home in an affluent Texas neighborhood.

A mother… and her two daughters… all found dead upstairs.

Police say it was a murder-suicide.
But the people who knew her best say that’s impossible.

So what really happened inside that house?

Nichol Olsen (37) and her two daughters Alexa Montez (16) and London Bribiescas (10) were found dead in the home of Nichol’s boyfriend, Charlie Wheeler, on January 10, 2019. A medical examiner would determine that Nichol shot the two girls before taking her own life but there is much debate as to if that is really the case.

Now, 6 years later, the case is still open. The Sheriff said at one point “There were some stones left unturned, I’ll leave it at that.”

In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the deaths of Nichol Olsen and her two daughters. Will there ever be full closure in this case?

We also discuss an update in the disappearance of Neil McCasland.
