The Strange Story of Cindy Jones
This is one of the strangest stories I’ve ever covered — and a total mystery to me. Cindy James was a 44-year-old woman from the Vancouver, B.C. area. She lived a very troubled and difficult life and, allegedly, she was plagued by a stalker who simply would not leave her alone. Over a seven-year period, she would be harassed by an unknown individual, leading to more than 100 police reports of stalking. They would call her to threaten her, or breathe into the phone until she hung up in a panic. They would lurk around her home at night, even going as far as to cut her phone line. Authorities were puzzled by the lack of evidence and many believed that Cindy was making up the whole thing for attention.

She Wrote Her Killer’s Name in Blood
This is the story of what is quite possibly France’s most notorious true crime case. Wealthy socialite Ghislaine Marchal was discovered murdered in the cellar of her beautiful mansion. In what was a very violent attack, she had been stabbed 20 times. Yet somehow, she apparently managed to write the name of her killer on the cellar wall in her own blood. Amazing. Police had their perpetrator. Case closed, right? Wrong. There would be several inconsistencies with this theory, including a grammatical error in her bloody message that many thought the victim would never make, as she was an avid writer and reader.

Man Who Was Missing for Five Years Found Alive and Well — But He Claims It’s Not Him!
People go missing every single day. According to some statistics, there are almost 1800 that go missing in the U.S. every single day — and I would imagine a similar percentage of Canadians. Some of those may have met a nefarious fate while others may decide to disappear on their own for whatever reasons they have. Sometimes, we never know what happens to the person.

He Killed a Woman Over Her Dog Peeing on The Lawn
I recently moved back to Canada to a small town of under 7,000 people and it’s been an interesting experience. I live in a neighbourhood with beautifully manicured lawns that retirees spend most of their days ensuring are absolutely meticulously groomed. On just about every corner, you’ll find a “no dog pooping on the lawn” sign. I get it — when you spend that much time ensuring your lawn is the greenest most attractive lawn as far as the eye can see, you don’t want a dog ruining it. But it still rubs me the wrong way.

The Murder of Yoshi Hattori, Killed While Looking for a Halloween Party
Let’s start with a little bit about who Yoshihiro Hattori was. He was born in Nagoya, Japan, which for reference is about 4 and a half hours away from Tokyo, to his mother Mieko and his father Masaichi — and I want to bring them up now because they play a big part in this story.
