File 187 True Crime Podcast
by Joe McReynolds and Dan Kewley
Buried in God’s CountryWhen two women vanish on their way to pick up children from a rural Oklahoma home, the search uncovers something far more chilling than a custody dispute. Beneath the quiet plains lies a radical belief system one where religion, control, and anti-government paranoia collide. This episode digs into a brutal double murder carried out by people who believed they were doing God’s will and a community forced to reckon with the extremism growing right next door.
