Aug 25, 2026 · 1h 8m

Summary

Host Kelsey examines the unsolved 2008 murder of real estate agent Lindsay Buziak, who was stabbed to death during a suspicious home showing. The episode explores two primary theories: a drug cartel hit linked to a massive cocaine bust, or involvement by her boyfriend Jason Zalo and his family due to relationship turmoil or financial secrets. While police cleared the Zalo family, the host critiques the lack of evidence and highlights lingering questions about the crime's personal brutality versus its professional planning.
