Summary

ACTIVE CASE, PART 2: Nathan Carman was 23-years old when his boat, the Chicken Pox, sank during a fishing trip off the coast of Rhode Island, presumably claiming the life of his mother, Linda Carman, who was also aboard the vessel before it went down. Nathan was rescued a week later – a miraculous recovery by a freight ship that just happened to be in the right place at the right time. The story only got more compelling when it was learned that Nathan Carman was the grandson of wealthy real estate developer John Chakalos, whose 2013 murder remained unsolved, and that Nathan himself was a suspect in his grandfather's death. In Part 2: Who is Nathan Carman? Did Nathan intentionally sink his boat with his mother aboard? If you haven't already, listen to Part 1: Murdered at Home and Missing at Sea available wherever you get your podcasts.
