It’s episode 148 and the Sinister Sisters love all things NOLA. Tarot card readings. Speakeasies. You name it! Now back to our regularly scheduled programming. In today’s group episode, Sarah covers the case of Patrick McNeill whose death led retired detective Kevin Gannon and his colleagues to theorize that the young man hadn’t accidentally drowned, but instead had been murdered by a band of serial killers terrorizing the Midwest. Then, Erin dives into the case of Lucas Homan who, almost ten years later, accidentally drowned in the Mississippi River after leaving a bar but who Gannon believes met with foul play. Morgan ends the episode covering the mysterious death of Dakota James - the most recent victim of this theory and the facts of his case will leave you scratching your head. The dogs are upset about these deaths too.
