Podcast Description
At Cardinal Crimes, we want "true crime" to have a purpose. Here, we aim to raise awareness of cases, deepen understanding of various types of crime and the psychology driving them, and explore ways to prevent future crime—whether through individual actions, community efforts, societal change, or policy reform. We do this by speaking with survivors, victims, experts, policymakers, offenders, and more to learn all that we can about crime and how to stop it.

Corinne Perry was last seen at the Highlander Laundromat on April 17, 1983. Her car was left abandoned in the laundromat parking lot, with her clothes folded neatly inside of it. Days later, her purse was found miles away on a bridge. Despite multiple witnesses saying a man — about 6 feet tall, with a medium build and medium-length brown hair, clean shaven, and wearing glasses — followed Corinne out of the laundromat, there was no sign of him or her.
Her remains were discovered a mile from where her purse was found over a year later, and to this day, her murder remains unsolved.
