Today is an extra special episode of Spooky B*tch Walk because our co-host today is Hannah’s mom! Hannah tells her mom about the disappearance/murder of Kristopher Clarke (KC) and the murder of Doug Carlile.
KC was last seen dropping off the company credit card at Blackstone Trucking Company on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation on February 22, 2012. Immediately, KC’s friends were suspicious of KC’s longtime friend and boss, James Henrikson, but there wasn’t enough evidence to prove anything nefarious had even occurred. Over a year later, James went into business with Doug Carlile. Just a few months later, Doug was shot and killed in his home. Luckily, the murderer left the best piece of evidence any detective could ever ask for: DNA. The person this DNA belonged to was someone who wasn’t even on police’s radar.
Listen as Hannah and her mom discuss amateur criminals, the oil boom on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation, and how Hannah and her mom used to be Native Americans.
