Murder, She Told

The Suspicious Death of David Braley

Murder, She Told

Show Notes

1989 - Concord, New Hampshire.

When the bouncer at Take Five Music Hall in Concord, NH saw 21-year-old David Braley darting into the woods after being kicked out, he thought little of it and moved on. But that fleeting glimpse would turn out to be the last time anyone saw David alive.

Months of frantic searching ended on a cool spring day in 1990, when a body appeared along the Merrimack River. David’s discovery answered one question—but raised countless others. What exactly happened on the night of November 10, 1989? And who were the two men last seen with him at the bar?
