On a quiet Sunday morning in March 2012, a jogger on Utah’s Jordan River Trail made a gruesome discovery: pools of blood on a pedestrian bridge and a single red sneaker discarded near the water. Hours later, the lifeless body of 15-year-old Annie Kasprzak was pulled from the river.
Just the night before, Annie had vanished from her home, leaving behind a runaway note and a shocking confession. As investigators frantically pieced together her final hours, they were dragged into a chaotic web of deception. From rumors of a teenage pregnancy to a phantom gang member named "LJ," and a revenge-seeking witness who derailed the case for an entire year—nothing in this investigation was what it seemed.
When detectives finally traced the digital footprint of the blocked numbers calling Annie’s phone, the truth proved to be far more chilling than anyone could have imagined.
Join Richard and Ashley this week as they unravel the fabricated alibis, the stunning digital evidence, and the devastating reality behind the murder of Annie Kasprzak.

As Halloween approaches and the leaves change, we're revisiting one of the most controversial and notorious haunted attractions out there: McKamey Manor. Known as the most extreme haunted house experience, McKamey Manor has been pushing the boundaries of fear since 2001. It started as a backyard haunt in a quiet San Diego neighborhood, with the classic jump scares and eerie sounds we all expect. Over time, it transformed into something much darker: a psychological endurance test designed to push people to their limits, both mentally and physically.
In the early 1990s, the transitioning industrial town of Middletown, New York, became the hunting ground for a ruthless killer. It started with a horrific discovery along abandoned railroad tracks and quickly escalated into a string of brutal murders that paralyzed the Hudson Valley.
This week on Crime Salad, Ashley takes the mic solo to break down what authorities are calling one of the most disturbing cases in Philadelphia history. What started as a routine traffic stop involving 44-year-old Eugene Horsch near Independence Mall in June 2026 quickly unraveled a decade-long nightmare centered around a fortified rowhouse at 417 West Chew Avenue in the Olney neighborhood.
On the evening of June 9, 1995, a little league baseball game in Alma, Arkansas, provided the perfect cover for a predator. In the short time it took to catch fireflies with friends, six-year-old Morgan Nick vanished from the parking lot. What followed was a 29-year nightmare for her family, decades of missed clues, and a relentless hunt for justice that finally resulted in a massive forensic DNA breakthrough in 2024.
