  • Dominique Dunne ////// 797

    Part 1 of 1

    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

    The night before Halloween attack on Poltergeist movie star Dominique Dunne shocked and surprised both Hollywood and the nation. Dominique was an up and coming star. At the young age of twenty two years old she had already found success on both television and the big screen. Her star was rising but that would be brought to an abrupt end at the hands of a violent monster who was spiraling out of control. Hands, that unfortunately she knew all too well.

    There are many resources available to victims of both stalking and domestic violence. If you feel you are in imminent danger or are in fear - call 911 immediately!

    Even when stalking is not related to domestic violence, domestic violence and/or sexual assault service providers are often the right people to contact. The Victim Connect Resource Center is a referral helpline. They are available 9AM to 5PM ET by calling 1- 855-4-VICTIM

    And perhaps the best resource is The National Domestic Violence Hotline. They can be reached by texting START to 88788 or by calling 1-800-799-SAFE. But remember if you are in danger - call 911 and please talk to your local law enforcement agency.

Her two children Michael and Karen have not been seen since June 22, 1979. They were just ten and eleven years old, respectively.

  • Obsessed with Serial Killers ////// 790

    Part 1 of 1


    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

    Does America and other nations have an obsession with Serial Killers? Many have asked that question. I say no, but what is clearly obvious is many people have a very deep fascination with Serial Killers. Serial murderers are a rare breed. Many people who follow true crime will typically go through a phase when they first discover some of these types when one wants to learn more or maybe as much as possible about these rare killers. This week we are joined by Dr. Scott Bonn, a PhD criminologist to discuss serial killers and learn a little bit more about them. Dr. Scott Bonn has provided expert commentary and analysis for a number of high profile true crime television shows and now he is bringing his insights into the Garage.

  • Cassie Compton ////// 786

    Part 1 of 1


    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com


    Cassie Kay Compton went missing 10 years ago from the town of Stuttgart, Arkansas. Today she would be 25 years old. She was just 15 when this mystery began. According to reports, Cassie was dropped off at her mother’s home on the evening of September 14, 2014. It is believed that the last person known to have seen Cassie was her mother’s fiancĂ© Brandon Rhodes. Rhodes would later face several unrelated charges for drugs, weapons, and stolen goods. Brandon Rhodes remains a strong suspect in this disappearance and may hold the answers as to what happened to this little girl. At the time of her disappearance Cassie was 5’3, 100 pounds with blue eyes, and dyed blonde hair. There are some discrepancies as to what she was wearing at the time. The investigating agency is the Stuttgart Police Department and tips should be sent to them. SPD can be reached at 1-870-673-1414.

  • The Cell Phone Murders /// Part 2 /// 785

    Part 2 of 2


    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com


    On September 25, 1996 just before midnight, a 911 call came into emergency services. A crying woman requested police and ambulance personnel to her home. She reported a lot of gunfire in her home with several people down. Within minutes, Police, Fire, and EMTs were on the scene. A young man covered in blood ran up to the responding Sheriff’s deputy saying “They shot them all, they shot them all.” The savage brutality of these murders is shocking. The 1996 Cell Phone Murders would be better described as a massacre.

  • The Dartmouth Murders /// Part 2 /// 779

    Part 2 of 2


    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

    The 2001 homicides of two Dartmouth College professors completely shocked and rocked Hanover, New Hampshire to it's core. No one could imagine something like this happening in a town best known for being the home of an elite academic institution. Half and Susanne Zantop were both loved and very highly respected by students and faculty at the Dartmouth College. The Zantop’s bodies were found on a Saturday evening, inside their home by a friend, who had arrived as an invited dinner guest. The double homicide investigation that followed was headed up by the New Hampshire Attorney General’s office. This was an “all hands on deck” situation with multiple law enforcement agencies working the case. The investigation went beyond state lines and tested both the college and the community.
