92. [North Carolina] Nancy Cooper
from Bless This Mess: A Southern True Crime Podcast · host Bless This Mess
We are headed to North Carolina this week. Nancy and Brad Cooper moved from Canada to Cary, North Carolina and were living in idealistic life in the affluent suburb outside of Raleigh. In 2008, Nancy went for a run but never returned, just two days after going missing, Nancy's body was found. As police investigate, they uncover a contentious divorce, affairs, and a heated child custody battle, all signs were pointing to Brad but with little evidence, it would take years to get justice for Nancy. Fun Fact: North Carolina got the nickname the Tar Heel State because workers here used to sell tar, pitch, and turpentine from the state's longleaf pine trees to be used in wooden ships. Legend has it that some British soldiers were slowed down when they stepped in sticky North Carolina tar during the Revolutionary War.Find us on the webs!Follow us on InstagramLike us on FacebookSupport us on Patreon - for early access and ad-free, join our Patreon!Buy us a Coffee! - if you want to support the podcast with a one-time donation, buy us a coffee!Rate, Review, and Subscribe on iTunesMusic courtesy of Blanche
