Sirens

Southern Noir Book Club | Kathy Reichs - Evil Bones

Thu, 15 Jan 2026 15:00:00 -0600

In this episode, I'm joined by Kathy Reichs, one of the most respected voices in forensic science and crime fiction. A practicing forensic anthropologist and the author behind the Temperance Brennan series (Bones), Reichs brings a rare dual perspective—working real cases involving unidentified remains while also translating that science into compelling narrative.

Our conversation moves beyond pop-culture portrayals of forensic work and into the reality of what bones can—and cannot—tell us. We talk about skeletal trauma, time since death, identification challenges, and the responsibility that comes with speaking for the dead. Reichs also reflects on how her real-world experience shapes her fiction, the limits of forensic certainty, and why patience and restraint matter as much as expertise in death investigations.

This is a grounded, thoughtful discussion about science, truth, and storytelling—centered not on spectacle, but on accountability, accuracy, and the lives behind the evidence.

Kathy Reichs is a board-certified forensic anthropologist who has worked on hundreds of cases involving unidentified human remains. She is also the bestselling author of the Temperance Brennan series, which inspired the television show Bones. Reichs is known for her insistence on scientific accuracy, ethical storytelling, and victim-centered work—both in the lab and on the page. You can get her book here, or wherever you get your books.

Southern Noir Book Club | Rachel Corbett - The Monsters We Make

Fri, 12 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of Sirens, I’m joined by Rachel Corbett, journalist, academic, and author of The Monsters We Make, for a deeply thoughtful conversation about crime, memory, and the stories we tell ourselves about evil.

Rachel shares how her own childhood experiences—and the moments that shaped her understanding of violence and fear—ultimately led her down the path of researching crime, criminal behavior, and the FBI’s approach to criminal profiling. What began as personal curiosity evolved into years of research that challenge some of the most widely accepted assumptions in true crime.

We talk in depth about The Monsters We Make, including what inspired the book, how personal history intersects with academic inquiry, and why criminal profiling may not be the reliable investigative tool pop culture has led us to believe. Rachel breaks down how profiling gained its reputation, where it has fallen short, and why its perceived success often looks very different when examined closely.

This episode explores the tension between storytelling and science—and asks hard questions about how myths are created, repeated, and cemented in both law enforcement and media.

Spooky Special | Tulsa's Hex House

Wed, 29 Oct 2025 10:00:00 -0600

Hosted by Raven Rollins

Tulsa’s infamous Hex House wasn’t just a haunted legend—it was real. Beneath the surface of an ordinary duplex at 10 East 21st Street lay a story of control, psychological manipulation, and hidden abuse that gripped the city in the 1940s. Two women were found living in a cold, dark basement—isolated, exploited, and convinced they were earning salvation under the direction of a woman named Carol Ann Smith.

In this episode, Raven unearths the true history behind the Hex House. It’s a story of power, belief, and the dangerous ways devotion can be twisted.

Southern Noir Book Club | Brian & Cameron Santana: A Murder on Campus

Fri, 15 Aug 2025 00:00:00 -0600

In this episode, I sit down with brothers Brian and Cameron Santana, co-authors of A Murder on Campus: The Professor, The Cop, and North Carolina’s Most Notorious Cold Case. We talk about the brutal, unsolved 1973 murder of Virginia Marie Olson, a 19-year-old college student whose body was discovered near the campus of UNC-Asheville.

Over 50 years, the case would haunt three generations of investigators and the entire Asheville community, marked by dead ends, disturbing parallels, and whispers of notorious suspects. Brian, a veteran cop, and Cameron, a college professor, teamed up to tell this story with a rare blend of insider insight and narrative depth.

Girl Forgotten: What Happened to Brianna Wells? (with Dan Brown Jr.)

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 00:00:00 -0600

In this episode, I sit down with filmmaker and composer Dan Brown Jr., the creator of the true crime documentary Girl Forgotten: What Happened to Brianna Wells? and founder of Crime Sonics.

On December 29, 2014, 17-year-old Brianna Wells was found murdered and abandoned in a South Phoenix alley. Nearly a decade later, her case remains unsolved and largely forgotten—until now.

Dan shares the emotional and investigative journey behind Girl Forgotten, a film four years in the making that follows grassroots advocate Gina as she digs into Brianna’s story, uncovers disturbing truths, and exposes failures within the system. From police missteps to media silence, this documentary challenges how we treat missing and murdered girls—especially when their stories are inconvenient.

We talk about the filmmaking process, the importance of storytelling through music, the emotional toll true crime creation can take, and how original music—including the haunting theme “Raise Cain”—brings Brianna’s voice back to the forefront.

Britney Tiger Gomez

Fri, 01 Aug 2025 00:00:00 -0600

Remastered and featuring updated content, Raven reconnects with Holly Archer to discuss the heartbreaking cold case of Britney Tiger Gomez from Ada, Oklahoma. Originally recorded in 2020, the episode now includes new developments that came to light in 2023, leading to an arrest, though not the kind anyone had hoped for.

The MMIW crisis refers to the staggering and disproportionate number of Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit individuals who go missing or are murdered across the United States and Canada, often with little to no media coverage or resolution. Systemic failures, jurisdictional gaps, and historical trauma have left families searching for answers and justice. In Oklahoma—home to many tribal nations—the crisis is especially urgent, and cases like Britney Tiger’s shine a light on just how much work still needs to be done.

Anyone with tips on Britney's case can leave an anonymous tip with the FBI at tips.fbi.gov or leave us a tip on our website's homepage. You can always reach out via email as well.

The Sirloin Stockade Massacre

Sat, 05 Jul 2025 17:00:00 -0600

On July 16, 1978, one of Oklahoma’s most haunting mass murders unfolded just before midnight at the Sirloin Stockade restaurant in Oklahoma City. Located near SW 74th and Pennsylvania Avenue, the family steakhouse became the site of unimaginable horror when three armed intruders forced six teenage and adult employees into the walk-in freezer during closing hours, where they were gunned down.

Five of the employees died on the spot. A sixth died en route to the hospital. The victims included: David Lindsey (17), David Salsman (16), Anthony Tew (17), Terri Horst (15), Louis Zacarias (43), Isaac Freeman (56)

Oklahoma City was stunned. And just weeks before, another family—Melvin and Linda Lorenz and their 12-year-old son—had also been killed on the highway, just south of town. Police would eventually connect the two scenes.

Join me as I discuss these cases around the anniversary of the killings.

Southern Noir Book Club | JC Fuller, Mystery Author

Mon, 15 Jul 2024 00:00:00 -0600

This week, Raven speaks with fellow author J. C. Fuller, whose popularity sprouted from The Rockfish Island Mystery series, a murder mystery who-dun-it book series. J. C. can be found making cute videos on TikTok or you can find the series Facebook page and follow for the newest release details and updates at https://www.facebook.com/Blackbearalibi.

Black Bear Alibi (Book 1) Philip Russell, a U.S. Park Ranger on a remote Pacific Northwest island, stumbles upon a dead woman in the forest. The local sheriff, Lane, arrives to investigate. Loyal to the islanders, Philip clashes with Lane, who trusts no one. As they dig deeper, they uncover hidden secrets among their neighbors. The killer may be closer than they think.

The Push (Book 2) Once again, death has found its way to Rockfish Island’s National Park, this time in the form of a terrible climbing accident. When Sheriff Lane discovers the victim has ties to an accidental drowning the summer before, she becomes suspicious the two deaths are linked and not accidents at all. Recruiting Park Ranger Phillip Russell into her investigation, the two begin looking into the past...

False Findings (Book 3) In book three of the series, dark deeds, intended to remain hidden beneath the cold waters bordering the island, have surfaced, shocking the small community and casting a dark shadow over its residents...

Within The Pines (Book 4) A well-kept secret from the average tourist, Rockfish Island is the chosen destination for an all-inclusive corporate getaway with a fun-filled weekend of glamping and horseback riding planned, each guest expecting a good time despite mounting tensions and ladder-climbing aspirations. When a shot rings out in the early morning, the celebratory atmosphere dissolves, and Sheriff Lane, with Ranger Philip Russell in tow, must discern if the corresponding death is an accident, a matter of opportunity, or a murder for hire.

Jewell "Juli" Busken | Feed Drop | Unforbidden Truth Podcast

Thu, 11 Jul 2024 21:15:00 -0600

We have a feed drop for you from another true crime podcast, Unforbidden Truth, which interviews convicted killers. Before we introduce you, Raven discusses the case of Juli Busken from Oklahoma, which is the subject of this Unforbidden Truth Episode.

Busken, a 21-year-old ballerina from Benton, Arkansas, had just finished her final semester at the University of Oklahoma when she was abducted from her apartment in Norman on December 20, 1996. Her body was found near Lake Stanley Draper that evening. Authorities said she had been bound, sexually assaulted, and shot in the back of the head.

The state of Oklahoma executed Anthony Sanchez on Thursday, September 21, at 10:19 a.m.

In this short interview with Unforbidden Truth, Sanchez proclaims his innocence, discussing his trial and his innocence shortly before his execution.

Minding the Beehive with A Nefarious Nightmare Podcast

Mon, 17 Apr 2023 00:51:04 -0600

8 Episodes. 40 Survivors. But so many more affected. This week, we introduce you to our good friends Courtney and Amanda with a Nefarious Nightmare - A True Crime podcast. We share the first episode in their 8 part series entitled “Minding the Beehive” where they speak with many survivors of one serial sexual offender that has assaulted and swindled money from 50 plus people across the United States - many of them minors at the time. They shed light on narcissism, recreate events that took place, and listen to many voices of his survivors. We believe A Nefarious Nightmare was instrumental in putting this man behind bars, and so very proud of the work they have done and are still doing. This is what true crime podcasting is about. Welcome to Part one, where they speak with Holly, one of his most recent victims.

Carla Walker with Othram Labs

Tue, 14 Feb 2023 06:01:00 -0600

1974, Fort Worth, Texas - Carla Walker goes to a Valentine's Dance with her boyfriend. Afterward, they stop at a bowling alley so she can use the restroom. Once back in her boyfriend's car, they begin making out, when, out of nowhere, the passenger side door flies open and Carla is ripped away from him forever. The case was cold up until recently, when DNA made a big change with Forensic Genetic Genealogy.

Raven and guest co-host Professor Mandy McNeely take a look at this case on Valentine's Day, the anniversary. They discuss the possibility that her killer is also a serial killer, and Raven gets to sit down with David and Kristen Mittelman from Othram Labs, Inc., to talk about how they helped solve this case.

Allegedly | Caitlin Wooten

Tue, 08 Feb 2022 00:00:00 -0600

Raven and Holly discuss the case of Ada, Oklahoma's Caitlin Wooten and Caitlin's Law that came from it. Disclaimer: Content includes talk of Domestic Violence and Murder.

Caitlin Wooten’s case is a heartbreaking story that led to significant legal changes in Oklahoma. In 2005, 16-year-old Ada, Okla. resident, Caitlin Wooten, was kidnapped by her mother's ex-boyfriend, who had previously held her mother hostage at gunpoint, but after his arrest was back on the streets within 30 hours and continued to pose a threat. Tragically, Caitlin’s life was cut short by him. Her case highlighted the flaws in the bail system and the need for stronger protections for victims of violent crimes.

This led to the enactment of Caitlin’s Law, officially known as the Caitlin Wooten Act, which was signed into law in 2006. It aims to strengthen bail laws by requiring individuals charged with violent crimes, such as kidnapping, to prove they are not a public danger before they can post bail. The law also enhances Oklahoma's victim protection order (VPO) laws to align more closely with federal standards, aiming to prevent similar tragedies in the future.

Originally Published Nov 2019.

Sun, 03 May 2020 00:00:00 -0600

Ada, Oklahoma - 1909. Just 2 years after Statehood, the world saw a postcard with western actors, but Adans looked on as one of the last surviving gangs of the Wild West had it out with a prominent law man. Join Raven and Holly as they discuss a dark cloud over their hometown of Ada, Oklahoma and they mystery of its early vigilantism.

In the early hours of April 19, 1909, a vigilante mob in Ada, Oklahoma, took justice into their own hands by lynching four men—Jim Miller, Jesse West, Joe Allen, and Berry B. Burell (possibly Burwell)—who were accused of murdering local rancher Gus Bobbitt. The mob, consisting of about 40 men, cut the power to the town, overpowered the jailers, and hanged the accused in a livery stable. This act was driven by the community’s frustration with the legal system and their desire to curb rampant crime in the town.
