And the Oh, Hello all and welcome to another episode of the Strange Matters podcast.

Here at Strange Matters, we discuss everything as bizarre, mysterious, and unexplained.

I am Sean, the host for the show.

On this episode of Strange Matters, I will be discussing the terrifying and disturbing

events surrounding an infamous kidnapping case. In Los Angeles in 1927, a young girl

named Marion Parker was abducted by a smooth-talking man right from her own school.

Her father would immediately be contacted by a man demanding ransom, a man who would become known by one of his nicknames, the Fox.

This story would receive national attention as people all across the country eagerly read any news on the developing story.

As more disturbing details were revealed in this developing case,

it would ultimately be called at the time the crime of the century.

In this episode I will be going over all the details of the kidnapping,

the investigation of the police trying to figure out who this fox was, and the tragic consequences of this unexpected crime.

This story of The Fox actually serves as a bit of a prequel to the latest Patreon exclusive episode

which deals with another famous kidnapping case in LA that occurred just months after.

That episode talks about the case of Christine Collins who had her son go missing suddenly for a number of months.

In that case, the city of Los Angeles was still feeling the impacts of the fallout of the events that will be described in this episode and

involves numerous twists and disturbing revelations throughout the case.
