Articles discussed: "The Accident on the Pacific Crest Trail" by Louise Farr, about the tragic death of a hiker "When the Mafia Came to Lodi" by Andrew Dubbins, about the mafia's attempt to infiltrate California and the undercover case that took them down "The Search of a Lifetime" by Julian Smith, about a woman investigating a cold case of her grandfather's murder This episode's sponsor: Scribd.
