| 7/13/26 | Israel Keyes: The Olympic Peninsula Mystery | Prolific serial killer, Israel Keyes, is often remembered for the murder that led to his capture in Alaska. But years before his arrest, he lived on Washington's remote Olympic Peninsula, worked in Neah Bay, and, according to the FBI, may have murdered several unidentified victims whose names remain unknown. In this episode of Crime Off the Grid, we explored the lesser-known chapter of the Israel Keyes story. We follow his years on the Olympic Peninsula, including the suspected victim hidden beneath Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park, and separated verified facts from internet myths. We also look at Keyes' meticulous planning, his infamous "kill kits," and the haunting blood-drawn skulls discovered after his death.Could some of Israel Keyes' victims still be hidden in America's public lands? More than a decade later, that mystery remains unsolved.Sources:Alaska Serial Killer Attended Racist Church, Knew Terrorists Israel Keyes: Biography, Serial Killer, Murderer, CriminalIsrael Keyes - Wikipedia https://murderpedia.org/male.K/k/keyes-israel.htmIsrael Keyes: Writings — FBIWhat do skulls drawn in Israel Keyes' blood mean? - CBS NewsSupport the show!For bonus content join our Patreon!patreon.com/CrimeOfftheGridFor a one time donation:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cotgFor more information about the podcast, check outhttps://crimeoffthegrid.com/Check out our Merch!! https://in-wild-places.square.site/s/shopFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/crimeoffthegridpodcast/ and (1) Facebook | 50m 14s | ||||||

| 5/11/26 | Olympic National Park; Terrorized at Third Beach | On this episode of Crime Off the Grid, we examine a brutal domestic violence case that unfolded on remote Third Beach in Olympic National Park. Rangers, local law enforcement, and EMS responded after a woman called 911 reporting that her boyfriend had violently assaulted her at their campsite. What investigators uncovered revealed a disturbing pattern of abuse spanning multiple states, violated protection orders, and a fugitive suspect who fled Washington before being arrested months later in Tennessee after allegedly assaulting the same victim again. We break down the investigation, the challenges victims face in escaping abusive relationships, and how federal authorities handled this case inside a national park.Helpful Resources: https://www.thehotline.org/ - Domestic Violence Hotlinehttps://www.nrcdv.org/ - National Resource Center on Domestic ViolenceSource Material: U.S. District CourtUnited States District Court for the Western District of Washington (Tacoma)CRIMINAL DOCKET FOR CASE #: 3:20-cr-05066-BHS-1Support the show!For bonus content join our Patreon!patreon.com/CrimeOfftheGridFor a one time donation:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cotgFor more information about the podcast, check outhttps://crimeoffthegrid.com/Check out our Merch!! https://in-wild-places.square.site/s/shopFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/crimeoffthegridpodcast/ and (1) Facebook | 40m 37s | ||||||

| 4/20/26 | Buffalo National River; Too Close for Comfort | Campgrounds are generally some of the safest places you can be—filled with families, hikers, anglers, and people looking for a quiet night under the stars. There’s an unspoken understanding out there: shared space, mutual respect, and a kind of watchful neighbor mentality, even among strangers. But that same openness is what makes them unpredictable. You don’t choose who ends up in the site next to you, and in remote areas—where cell service is limited and help isn’t right around the corner—conflicts can escalate quickly. Most of the time, it’s nothing more than a noise complaint or a minor disagreement… but every once in a while, the isolation that draws people in is the very thing that allows a situation to turn violent before anyone can step in, such as the case in Buffalo National River.Source Material:32CR-09-169: STATE V JUSTAN M TAYLORSupport the show!For bonus content join our Patreon!patreon.com/CrimeOfftheGridFor a one time donation:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cotgFor more information about the podcast, check outhttps://crimeoffthegrid.com/Check out our Merch!! https://in-wild-places.square.site/s/shopFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/crimeoffthegridpodcast/ and (1) Facebook | 42m 56s | ||||||
| 4/13/26 | Paradise Almost Lost; Attack on the Pali Puka Trail | A birthday hike on Oahu’s dangerous Pali Puka Trail turns into a brutal fight for survival when a woman’s husband allegedly attacks her on a narrow ridge with sheer 1,000-foot drop-offs. What begins as a trip to repair a strained marriage quickly unravels into a terrifying scene of violence, desperate resistance, and a race against time—until two passing hikers stumble upon the unthinkable. Drawing from recent trial testimony and firsthand accounts, this episode of Crime Off the Grid explores how a remote, breathtaking trail became the setting for a chilling attempted killing—and the evidence that followed.Sources:HI v.
