In this first ever episode of the Midwest Murder Corner, host Casey tells listeners of how she became interested in true crime and dedicates the episode to the original true crime enthusiast in her life, her mother. The first case featured on MMC is that of the Springfield Three, which happened in 1992. To really put listeners there, Casey describes current events and pop culture favorites that year. 

The Springfield Three is a name coined for three women who disappeared, without a trace, from Springfield, MO, after a local high school graduation on June 7th, 1992. Suzie Streeter, her mother Sherrill Levitt, and Suzie's friend Stacy McCall have not been seen or heard from in over 27 years.
