26 APR 2024 · Tonight’s Kinda Murdery is True-Crime-Noir at its most hard-boiled. As always, everything you're about to hear really happened.  John Brunen, a 47-year-old, wealthy circus owner known as, “Honest John,” is murdered in his own home before he even has a chance to draw the pistol he always carries. “Honest John’s" life ended when he was decapitated, shot from behind, his head literally blown off by a double-barrelled shotgun fired through a locked window by  a shadowy, light-footed killer.  Brunen’s wife Doris, a former broadway chorus girl, is upstairs when she hears the fatal blasts. But the killer didn’t know that Brunen was a close friend of New Jersey super-sleuth Ellis H. Parker.  Parker swears vengeance, promising not to rest until the murderer is found.  Parker's as good as his word.  But promises don't mean much without results.  After investigating 600 possible suspects, he can't single clue. Parker's hit a stone wall, and he can't help but wonder why someone removed Brunen's talking parrot from the scene of the murder....What will Ellis H. Parker do next? If you’re ready to find out, please join host Zevon Odelberg for Kinda Murdery’s telling of, "THE DISAPPEARING PARROT!"

29 MAR 2024 · Within Private Detective Ken Brennan's mind, the image of the suspect was vivid and constant—an imposing figure moving through life with an air of untouchable confidence. This mental portrait of the suspect, casually interacting with potential victims while secure in the belief that his heinous acts were untraceable, fueled Brennan's resolve. The notion of the attacker, brazen and unrepentant, blending into the everyday while hiding in plain sight, propelled Brennan forward. It was this compelling image, and the desire to shatter the perpetrator's smug assurance of anonymity, that drove him to push the limits of his investigation, seeking justice in a case that had become far more than just another job...

22 MAR 2024 · In the early hours of a chilly winter morning in 2005, a grim discovery marks the beginning of a perplexing case that would haunt the western edge of Miami. Amid the transition where the orderly outer suburbia surrenders to the wild embrace of the Everglades, with its towering grass and dark, unforgiving mud, a scene unfolds that seems almost too brutal, too out of place. A local power-company worker, navigating through the routine of his day, drives by the desolate expanse of an unbuilt cul-de-sac. It's here, amidst the weeds and solitude, that he spots something. A young woman, merely 21, with long blond curls, lies facedown. She's naked, her body battered, an undeniable signal of the violence she endured, discarded at the very threshold of civilization and wilderness...

15 MAR 2024 · In the sweltering early summer heat of the El Paso County desert, a search had persisted for three grueling days. Leading the operation was a young female detective, now gripped by a sense of anticipation that often precedes a significant discovery in homicide investigations. She harbored a strong conviction: the victim's body was concealed somewhere close. After a year marred by frustration, misleading leads, and dead ends, she felt today would mark a pivotal turn. Today, they would uncover what they had been tirelessly searching for. The search team was a diverse assembly: dog teams sniffing for any trace, high-tech gear scanning the rugged terrain, and volunteers from both a local military base and a nearby prison. Among them, a veteran Texas Ranger stood out. It was he who stumbled upon the first clue—a human bone, seemingly disturbed and brought to the surface by animals. Following this, a weathered tennis shoe emerged, then another bone...

8 MAR 2024 · The deeper her investigation into Rhoades's life and crimes went, the more apparent the unsettling parallels between their lives became. Despite the chasm between their intentions—one a survivor, the other a predator—they shared the grueling rhythm of life on the road. Both faced the relentless monotony and sleepless nights that come with constant movement, their world oscillating between tedium and terror. As she honed her instincts for survival amidst the ceaseless uncertainty of hitchhiking, Rhoades, in dark mirroring, was likely refining his methods of predation. Each had developed their own coping mechanisms, their rituals for navigating the endless highways, and their own cynical conclusions about human nature and its responses to extremity. This reflection did not equate their actions but illuminated the disturbing thought that life on the road could shape individuals in profoundly different, yet parallel, ways...
