CRIME: The Bigfoot Murders
About this episode
The episode explores David Holthouse's investigation into the alleged Bigfoot murders in California's Emerald Triangle, revealing deeper issues of violence and crime.
In 1993, David Holthouse was working on a remote cannabis farm in California's Emerald Triangle when two panicked men burst into his cabin claiming three workers had been killed in the fields—torn apart by Bigfoot. Holthouse fled the next morning and spent 25 years trying to forget what he heard. But as an investigative journalist, he couldn't let it go. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa Richardson follows Holthouse's search for the truth behind the alleged murders. His investigation takes him deep into the Emerald Triangle, a region known as "The Black Hole" for its staggering rate of disappearances and unsolved crimes. What he uncovers isn't a cryptid tale—it's a story of racial violence, greed, and terror in one of America's most lawless communities, where the legend of Bigfoot was weaponized to mask something far more sinister.
