Episode The Three Mums Who Teamed Up To Solve Their Children’s Crimes
When three adult children vanish or turn up murdered back-to-back in Bakersfield, California, their heartbroken mothers refuse to wait for answers.
Banding together to form a fierce, unstoppable sisterhood, they launch their own rogue investigation, uncovering a dark underworld of ghost guns, addiction, and fraud. But just as their amateur detective work forces a breakthrough, a devastating plot twist blindsides the community: one of the missing victims is suddenly charged with her own friend's brutal murder.
Journalist Olivia LaVoice joins the podcast to unpack the emotional, chaotic, and utterly baffling reality of the Bakersfield Three.
