MONDAY MYSTERY: The Mysterious Mad Gasser of Mattoon [WAS IT ONLY MASS HYSTERIA??]

This week, Drewby and Yergy focus on the tragic case of young Gabriel Fernandez, whom you may remember from the heart wrenching Netflix docuseries "The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez." We examine how a little boy that was loved by his extended family was failed by the Department of Children and Family Services, which tragically resulted in his death in less than a year, after his biological mother and her boyfriend were awarded sole custody.  A very special thank you to Levi for supporting our show as our highest tier patron!

You asked - we listened. This week, Drewby and Yergy venture back to the state of Indiana to discuss the mystery surrounding the deaths of sisters Kionnie, Kerriele, Keyara and Keyana, also known as "The Flora Four" who died in a house fire that some speculate wasn't an accident. We also touch on the phenomena of "Missing White Woman Syndrome" and how it may apply to the Flora Fire case. We review the tragic deaths of cousins Lyric Cook and Elizabeth Collins, and the striking similarities between their case and the case of Abby Williams and Liberty German. Finally, we close this episode with an update Brian Chadwell. Police are offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information that leads to an arrest. Citizens can donate to the reward fund by sending a check to the Indiana Department of Homeland Security at 302 W. Washington Street Room E208, Indianapolis, IN, 46204. To ensure the donation goes to the appropriate account, the memo line should read “Flora Fire Reward.” A very special thank you to Levi for supporting our show as our highest tier patron!
