Northern Crimes

A quiet college town. A trusted uniform. And a crime that didn’t begin in Washington.
In January 1979, two young women accepted what seemed like a routine house-sitting job in Bellingham, Washington. By the next day, both were dead—strangled inside an isolated home overlooking the bay. What investigators uncovered next revealed a predator whose violence stretched far beyond the Pacific Northwest, linking a local crime scene to one of the most infamous murder sprees in American history.
This documentary traces how authority became a weapon, how warning signs were missed, and how a single case unraveled something much larger than anyone expected.
This is The Washington Strangler.
This is Northern Crimes.

Idaho’s wide-open spaces can swallow more than footprints.
In this episode of Northern Crimes, we trace a series of unresolved cases across Idaho - where a roadside discovery ends a child’s fair-night outing, a nine-year-old disappears after youth bowling, and a toddler vanishes from a remote campground without leaving a trace.
We also revisit a Pocatello abduction that was dismissed too quickly, a Moscow homicide that still won’t close, and a reality TV shoot in the Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forest that ends with a young crew member sprinting off into the trees - leaving questions that don’t match the official story.
These are the cases that linger when searches end, leads dry up, and someone out there still knows more than they’ve said.

In May 1967, a quiet prospector entered the remote wilderness of eastern Manitoba - and came back burned, ill, and carrying a story that would trigger one of the most extensive UFO investigations in Canadian history. Doctors documented unusual injuries. Police and military officials examined the site. Soil samples, physical evidence, and government reports followed- yet no clear explanation ever emerged.
What Really Happened at Falcon Lake? this episode examines the encounter, the evidence, and the decades-long debate that followed, separating what can be proven from what remains unresolved in Canada’s most enduring UFO case.

In December 1985, Ed and Minnie Maurin—an elderly couple who ran a small Christmas tree farm in rural Lewis County, Washington—were taken from their home and murdered along a remote logging road. The crime stunned the community, then slowly slipped into silence as leads faded and the case went cold.
This episode examines what happened, why the investigation stalled, and how years later, fresh eyes and long-buried testimony finally brought the truth to light. The Christmas Tree Murders is a restrained look at trust, violence, and the long road to justice.
