Cold Case Solved by Accused’s Own Tip | Adelaide News
About this episode
A cold case from Alaska is solved when the suspect, Christopher Popps, anonymously tips off police about the location of the victim's remains.
A cold case from Alaska that’s been 32 years in the making just got a shocking twist: the suspect, Christopher Popps, called police anonymously to lead them to the body of Patrick Dearth — only to be exposed as the tipster himself. Found in a barrel in May 2025, Dearth’s remains reignited the investigation, with police believing Popps killed him during a workplace argument. Arrested in Michigan and indicted for second-degree murder, Popps now faces up to 99 years behind bars — a chilling reminder that justice, even decades late, can still find its way.
