About this episode

The episode discusses the murder of Janice Randle and the subsequent arrest nearly 34 years later, driven by her daughters' efforts to revive the case.

Janice Randle was 30 and the mother of two girls when she was murdered at home in her bed in Graham, Washington. Her 18-month-old daughter, Kourtney, slept in a crib next to her mother's bed and was unharmed. Janice and her estranged husband, James Randle,  were separated and headed for divorce at the time of her death. James Randle told investigators Janice may have died from a drug overdose, citing a past history of painkiller use, but autopsy results revealed there were no drugs in her system. Investigators had little evidence to go on and the case went cold for decades. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack look at the case from a time before the murder took place and examine how the daughters of Janice Randle revived the case with investigators, leading to an arrest nearly 34 years after the murder!         Transcribe Highlights 00:00.12 Intro - early years of parenting 04:21.05 Janice Randle found in bed, dead 09:40.34 why leave 18-month old alive.... 15:15.29 Two daughters at time of death, 14 years and 18 months 20:10.78 Are contusions defense wounds? 24:59.38 No drugs in Janice system 30:32.86 Injuries from smothering   35:04.84 Daughters went…
