America's Most Infamous Crimes with Katie Ring

On Christmas Eve, 1945, the Sodder family went to bed with nine children under one roof. By sunrise, the house was ash and five children were gone, without a single bone left behind. In the first part of our 3-part series on the Sodder children, Katie Ring covers the warnings nobody took seriously, a night where everything that could go wrong did, and a father who knew it was no accident.

This week, Katie Ring has the full breakdown on the case dominating headlines: the Caleb Flynn trial. In February 2026, the worship pastor and former American Idol contestant called 911 to report that an intruder had shot his wife, Ashley, in their Tipp City home. More than 107,000 messages with his mistress, a crime scene that looked staged, and an Apple Watch that kept counting steps while he claimed he was asleep made this one of the most-watched trials of the year, and the verdict took the jury just two hours.

After thirty years of silence, BTK came back, and this time he couldn't stop sending packages. In the third and final part of our series on BTK, Katie Ring covers the communications that gave investigators everything they needed, the floppy disk that ended it, and the day Wichita found out the man they'd been looking for had been living right there the whole time.

BTK went silent for nearly a decade and Wichita slowly exhaled. Investigators assumed he might be dead. He wasn't, he'd just stopped writing letters. In the second part of our 3-part series on BTK, Katie Ring covers the years the city thought it was over, the murders that proved it wasn't, and the man living an extraordinarily ordinary life right in the middle of all of it.

In January 1974, a family of four was found bound and killed in their Wichita home. The killer left nothing behind. Four months later, a letter arrived at a local newspaper describing details only the murderer could know, signing off with a name he'd chosen for himself: BTK. In the first part of our 3-part series on BTK, Katie Ring traces the early murders, the taunting communications that made him notorious, and the investigation that kept coming up empty.
