This Monday on Ghosts of the Gazette: we’re finally back from the beach, so come travel with us back to June 1st 1993! Kendra tells the story of the tragic Drake Diner slayings in Des Moines, Iowa, where Cara McGrane and Tim Burnett lost their lives in a terribly senseless crime that would later lead to the controversial conviction of Joseph White Jr. Blake takes us to Staten Island, New York, where the violent history of Richard Mallen culminated in the murder of Joseph Marshall, raising questions about how a man with a long record of trouble continued to evade lasting consequences…

Every other Monday, we dig into fascinating stories from the past — all originally reported on the exact same date (though many years ago) as the episode airs. It’s history, headlines, and a touch of mystery, all rolled into your new favourite podcast.
