Episode 38 - Blindfolded Car Crash

It was a snowy December morning in St. Joseph County, Indiana - right outside of South Bend. William Joyce was driving, barely unable to see what was right in front of him.

If you know anything about the death of Stephen Melkey, call the South Bend Police Department at 574-235-9201.

This week, we're drinking Caposaldo's Pinot Grigio.
