IN THIS EPISODE: It was Labor Day, 1980 when Cynthia Clements disappeared \\u2013 it wouldn\\u2019t be until more than a month later that her body would be found. And we still don\\u2019t know who killed her. (The Unsolved Murder of Cynthia Clements) *** A harbinger of doom is a sign, a warning of bad things to come. A supernatural forerunner to disaster, you might say \\u2013 which several do, in Canada. There, they are more than familiar with forerunners of disaster and have several examples they could point to from over the years. (Canada\\u2019s Harbingers of Doom) *** Can you sue a schnauzer? Can you take a cat to court? Put a Terrier on trial? Can you arrest a mule for murder? You\\u2019d be surprised how many animals have been put on trial \\u2013 and for what reasons! (Accused Critters In Court) *** Wilford Sweeten was found dead of food poisoning. Then across town, a pastor\\u2019s wife was found dead of food poisoning as well. And that\\u2019 when rumors already circulating in the small town of Ida, Illinois began to be confirmed \\u2013 and the identities of the killers would shock people nationwide. (The Murdering Minister) *** It was probably said best by Old Time Radio\\u2019s \\u201cThe Shadow\\u201d when he said at the beginning of each episode, \\u201cThe weed of crime bears bitter fruit\\u2026 crime does not pay.\\u201d But true life criminals don\\u2019t seem to be too concerned about that. Some thieves, however, did learn it the hard way \\u2013 when they stole what turned out to be cursed relics\\u2026 and paid the price for swiping them. (Cursed Relics And The Karma They Brought To Those Who Stole Them)
