The Disappearing D.B. Cooper

E

Just one day before Thanksgiving a mysterious man who went by the alias of D.B. Cooper successfully hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines flight 305. Before landing in Seattle, he demanded the airline provide him with 200,000 dollars in "negotiable American currency", four civilian-grade parachutes, and a fuel truck on standby at the airport to refuel the plane as soon as they landed. About 30 minutes after taking off, D.B. jumped out the back of the plane along with $200,000 and one of the four parachutes provided. That was the last time anyone ever saw him. Do you think he survived the jump and got away? Many people do provided that his remains have never been found. #crimehub #truecrime #truecrimestories #crime Learn more about your ad choices.

The Butcher of Plainfield

E

It was strange for Bernice Worden to not be in her hardware store on a Saturday. And it was even stranger that she left without locking the door. Her son Frank, a deputy sheriff, stopped by the store around 5pm and searched for Bernice without any luck. Then he checked behind the counter and felt his stomach lurch. The cash register was open and there were dark pools of dried blood on the floor. Frank was worried but not panicked. He was a career cop and, despite the personal nature of the crime, he immediately took on the perspective of an investigator. He checked the receipt pad next to the register and saw that the last sale was from that morning: a gallon of antifreeze sold to a Mr. Ed Gein, a Plainfield local. Frank knew the Gein family in passing. #truecrime #crimehub Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Valley of the Headless Man

E

There are few places in the world as wild or stunning or strange as the Nahanni Valley in Canada’s Northwest Territories. The valley cradles the Nahanni River, a fast-flowing ribbon of whitewater and sharp falls that cuts through the Mackenzie Mountains. The valley is massive and remote; the entire area is covered in jagged pines, cliffs, canyons, and towering rock formations that jut out from the water. There are no roads near Nahanni. The only way to reach the territory is by air, water, or an arduous hike. Once you’re in the valley, should you encounter trouble, help is very, very far away. Despite the dangers of whitewater, wildlife, and soaring cliffs, the beauty of the Nahanni Valley continues to attract visitors while its natural resources, including reports of gold, have lured adventures to the sprawling frontier for hundreds of years. But the location has a chilling reputation that has led many would-be explorers to avoid the basin. The Nahanni Valley is better known as the Valley of the Headless Men, or Deadmen Valley. #truecrime #crimehub Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
