15 LUG 2025 · Kristin Smart left a Cal Poly frat party and was never seen again. The nineteen-year-old freshman was last spotted walking back to campus with fellow student Paul Flores, who claimed he left her near his dorm. Kristin's face was soon splashed across missing-person posters and billboards as her family desperately searched for answers. Rumors swirled, leads dried up, and Paul stayed silent.
It would take a relentless community, a backyard excavation, and secret recordings to finally bring new attention to the case — and push authorities closer to the truth.
What really happened to Kristin Smart that night — and why did it take decades for the truth to start coming out?

1 LUG 2025 · A single rock, hurled from a passing car, turned an ordinary drive home into a fatal ambush. Nineteen-year-old Alexa Bartell was on the phone with a friend when it happened — the last words anyone would hear from her.

In this episode of Murder U, we trace the devastating final moments of Alexa’s life and the chaotic hours that followed as investigators raced to piece together what happened. From scattered debris on a Colorado highway to a growing list of similar attacks, detectives soon realized this wasn’t an isolated act of violence. It was part of a disturbing spree.

For months, her disappearance remained a mystery—until one of the killers broke down and confessed to a crime so cold and calculated, it stunned the country.

17 GIU 2025 · She thought she was dating a fellow college student. He was actually a 37-year-old convicted sex offender using a fake name.
In this episode of Murder U, we investigate the heartbreaking case of Lauren McCluskey, a 21-year-old track star at the University of Utah who tried everything she could to stay safe—reporting threats, breaking off the relationship, even calling campus police more than 20 times. But when her cries for help went unanswered, it ended in tragedy.
We walk through Lauren’s final weeks, the system failures that led to her death, and the shocking revelations that surfaced in the aftermath. From the university’s botched response to the civil lawsuits that followed, we explore how a campus tragedy exposed deeper flaws in institutional accountability, victim protection, and law enforcement response.
This is the story of a student who did everything right... and still lost her life to a predator hiding in plain sight.

10 GIU 2025 · Two brilliant students at the University of Virginia. One forbidden romance. And a secret so dark, it ended in blood.
In 1985, the mutilated bodies of Derek and Nancy Haysom were found in their Virginia home. Their daughter, Elizabeth Haysom, and her boyfriend, Jens Soering, quickly became the focus of a case that would span decades, cross international borders, and spark global controversy. In this episode of Murder U, we unravel the shocking story of Jens Soering and Elizabeth Haysom—two elite scholars whose deadly obsession led to a gruesome double murder and a tangled legal saga that still makes headlines today.
We examine their privileged backgrounds, the brutal crime scene, and the explosive letters and confessions that prosecutors said proved their guilt. And we dig into the media storm that followed, including a Netflix documentary and Soering’s release in 2019—despite never undergoing new DNA testing that could supposedly prove his innocence. Was this the wrongful conviction of a young man in love? Or the calculated manipulation of a killer who knew exactly how to play the system?

3 GIU 2025 · She was a star athlete, weeks away from graduating from the University of Virginia. He was her ex-boyfriend, a fellow lacrosse player, and increasingly volatile. Then, on May 3, 2010, Yeardley Love was found brutally beaten in her campus apartment.
In this episode of Murder U, we examine the violent murder that shocked the collegiate sports world and sparked national conversations about dating violence, toxic masculinity, and institutional blind spots. We explore the disturbing behavior of George Huguely leading up to the killing, the warning signs that were ignored, and the heartbreaking aftermath for Yeardley’s family and community.
We also reflect on how this high-profile case changed policies on campus safety and inspired a nationwide push to better protect student-athletes from intimate partner violence.

27 MAG 2025 · On August 1, 1966, Charles Whitman climbed to the top of the University of Texas tower with a footlocker full of guns. By the time it was over, 16 people were dead, dozens more were wounded, and America had experienced its first modern mass shooting.
In this episode of Murder U, we trace Whitman’s life from gifted child and former Marine to the deeply disturbed killer who changed the way police, schools, and the public responded to mass violence.
We explore his childhood trauma, psychiatric red flags, suicide letters, and the brain tumor discovered during his autopsy. We also honor the stories of the victims, survivors, and heroic responders whose courage stood in stark contrast to the chaos. The Texas Tower massacre wasn’t just the beginning of a tragic new chapter in American history—it was a warning we’ve still failed to fully heed.
