Washington, D.C., 2006.

Robert Wone arrived at a friend’s townhouse just before 10:30 p.m.—a safe place to crash after a late shift. He was well-liked, grounded, freshly married. Nothing about the night should’ve stood out. But within an hour, he was dead—stabbed three times in the chest with almost surgical precision.

There were no signs of forced entry. No defensive wounds. Barely any blood. The three men inside the house—his hosts—claimed an intruder had slipped in undetected and vanished without a trace. But the scene told a different story.

The investigation uncovered evidence of restraint, possible chemical sedation, and a troubling lack of urgency from those inside the home. Yet no one was ever charged with his murder.

To this day, Robert Wone’s case remains one of the most chilling unsolved crimes in modern D.C. history. A man murdered in a locked house… surrounded by people who insisted they had no idea what really happened.

In the summer of 1977, three young girls went to Camp Scott in rural Oklahoma. It was supposed to be two weeks of hikes, crafts, and campfires. By morning, it became one of the most shocking unsolved child murders in American history.

This episode of Darkly Speaking retraces the haunting details — from the eerie warning note found weeks before the crime, to the flawed investigation, the controversial arrest of Gene Leroy Hart, and the DNA evidence that could still change everything.

Nearly fifty years later, we’re still waiting for the truth. And asking the question: Did they get it right?
