Your favorite podcast is back for a new season!
We’ve had some time to recharge and regroup and we are ready to get back into true crime cases from the PNW.
This episode takes us back to the early 1900s in Oregon, where a charismatic religious man was able to start a Holy Roller sect in the small community of Corvallis. Franz Edmund Creffield believed he was the new messiah and it was his job, his responsibility, to find the one lucky lady who would be the mother to the second Christ. His antics caused many issues with the men of the area and the local law enforcement.
Join Brice and Jess for the season 6 opener of the podcast! Let us know your thoughts and send any suggestions you have our way.
