In April 2011, realtor Ashley Okland (27) was hosting an open house in West Des Moines, Iowa, when she was shot twice and killed. For more than a decade the case remained a cold mystery: there were no clear motives, no signs of robbery or struggle, and investigators followed nearly a thousand leads without identifying a suspect. 
In March 2026, nearly 15 years after the murder, authorities announced a breakthrough: Kristin Elizabeth Ramsey (53) was charged with first‑degree murder in the case. No clear motive has been made public.  
Just a few years after Ashley’s death, another tragic realtor killing occurred in September 2014, when Beverly Carter (50)  disappeared while showing a property in Scott, Arkansas. Investigators soon learned that Beverly had been lured to the appointment under false pretenses by a suspect, Arron Michael Lewis, and his wife Crystal Lowery, who were attempting to execute a ransom plot. Beverly’s body was found buried in a shallow grave.  Arron would tell the media that he picked Beverly as a target because she was "a woman that worked alone — a rich broker."
In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the separate cases of two murdered realtors - Ashley Okland and Beverly Carter.

Three gunshots.
A locked home in an affluent Texas neighborhood.
A mother… and her two daughters… all found dead upstairs.
Police say it was a murder-suicide.
But the people who knew her best say that’s impossible.
So what really happened inside that house?
Nichol Olsen (37) and her two daughters Alexa Montez (16) and London Bribiescas (10) were found dead in the home of Nichol’s boyfriend, Charlie Wheeler, on January 10, 2019.  A  medical examiner would determine that Nichol shot the two girls before taking her own life but there is much debate as to if that is really the case.  
Now, 6 years later, the case is still open.  The Sheriff said at one point “There were some stones left unturned, I’ll leave it at that.” 
In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the deaths of Nichol Olsen and her two daughters. Will there ever be full closure in this case?

How well do you know your friends?
Skylar Neese (16) went missing from her West Virginia home in July 2012. She was last seen on CCTV, sneaking out of her bedroom window and getting into a grey sedan. 
Investigators eventually focused on Skylar’s two close friends, Shelia Eddy and Rachel Shoaf. Through tips, confessions, and evidence collected from digital communications, it emerged that the two girls had plotted and carried out Skylar’s murder.  Students at the high school that the girls attended had heard Shelia and Rachel planning the murder but did not report it as they thought it was a joke.  
Shelia and Rachel would both be arrested and charged with Skylar’s murder.  When asked about their motive, Rachel said “We just didn’t like her” and that they “didn't want to be friends with her anymore".
In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the murder of Skylar Neese.

Maj. Gen. William ‘Neil’ McCasland (68) had a very documented career within the US government. He headed up space weapons programs and served as head of research at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. That facility is rumored to house extraterrestrial debris from a UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico.
On February 27, 2026, Neil was seen by his wife and a tradesperson at their home in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  His wife left for an appointment, and when she returned one hour later, Neil had vanished.
An extensive search has been carried out for Neil, to no avail.  According to authorities, Neil’s gun and a backpack were also missing from his home.
Due to his career history, this case has captured the attention of conspiracy theorists online.  Adding to the mystery, Monica Reza, a former colleague of Neil's, went missing during a hike in June 2025 and has never been found.

On the morning of March 19, 2009, a chef in York, England left her home for work before dawn. She never arrived. Her phone stayed on for hours after she vanished before it was deliberately turned off.  Now 17 years later, no one has been charged.
