At Fox Hollow Farm in Westfield, Indiana, a family’s discovery of human remains exposed the dark truth about Herb Baumeister, a man living a double life. Linked to the disappearance of multiple men in the 80s and 90s, his crimes went unnoticed for years… until survivors and investigators began connecting the dots.

With haunting details—mannequins staged around a pool, narrow escapes, and a property hiding hundreds of remains—this case is as disturbing as it is unforgettable.

And it’s not over. New searches and modern forensic genealogy are still identifying victims decades later.

Plus, we cover a recent and still-unfolding dismemberment case out of Long Island that proves some stories are still being written.

And let us not forget about Buster the Wonder Dog and the closure he was able to provide to the MIA’s from WWII

Listen now if you’re ready for a case that’s eerie, complex, and far from closed.

Listener discretion is seriously advised for this one.

This week we dive into the horrifying story of the Anthill Kids, the Canadian cult led by self-proclaimed prophet Roch Thériault. What began as a fringe religious group and “healthy living” clinic spiraled into isolation in the Quebec wilderness, forced polygamy, starvation, child abuse, and unimaginable torture carried out in the name of God.

From botched “surgeries” on a kitchen table to the death of followers and children, Thériault’s reign of terror only escalated after multiple arrests failed to stop him. It would take a survivor with a severed arm to finally bring the nightmare to an end.

This is the story of blind devotion, absolute control, and the brutality that can grow inside an isolated cult.

When prosecutors dug into Helen Brach’s disappearance, they uncovered a massive horse-fraud scheme led by charming con man Richard Bailey. Wealthy widows were love-bombed, money disappeared, and insured horses began dying under suspicious circumstances.

The investigation exploded into a RICO case involving trainers, vets, fake paperwork, insurance scams — even a hired horse killer. Though Helen’s body was never found, a judge later ruled there was enough evidence to believe Bailey conspired in her murder.

He served decades in federal prison.
He still claims innocence.
Helen’s case remains unsolved.

So who really silenced the Candy Lady?

Money. Horses. Manipulation. Disappearance.
Helen Brach, a candy heiress, vanished in 1977, leaving no body, no arrests, and a trail of secrets involving inheritance schemes and Chicago’s racing scene. A place where money ran fast, and secrets ran faster.
The mystery remains — because sometimes the truth disappears too.

Bobby Peterson, and his friends John and Tony Shuessler vanished after a movie in 1955 and were later found murdered. The truth stayed silent for 40 years.

A mob informant.
A confession.
Two trials.
And a man who died claiming innocence.

The same names surface again in a possible connection to the disappearance of Patty Blough, Renee Bruhl, and Ann Miller, in Michigan.

Listen to this weeks episode to see how this all connects into our Horse Crimes series.

In 1984, Sydney horse trainer George Brown was found dead in his burned-out car — beaten, broken, and silenced. Months later, the Fine Cotton scandal shocked Australia: a horse-swapping scheme gone disastrously wrong. Decades on, new evidence suggests the two events are linked — that Brown was murdered for refusing to take part in an earlier race-fixing plot. From shady bookmakers and conmen to whispers of royal cover-ups, The Ring-In unravels the mystery behind an unsolved killing that still haunts Australian racing — and asks, who really silenced George Brown?
