0707 | My Friend Israel, part 2

In light of new revelations about Keyes's childhood and time in Eastern Washington, we further explore his upbringing, religious history, and his family's beliefs; which all lead us back to that farmhouse in Hunters, Washington. And from there, we try to make sense of what happened on April 2, 2005. This episode was written, researched, and produced by Josh Hallmark. With research by: Jordan Taylor  And additional research by: Michelle Tooker and Shana Wilensky.

The Cold War, Prohibition, the Gold Rush, the Space Race. Every part of your life - the words you speak, the ideas you share - can be traced to our history, but how well do you really know the stories that made America? We'll take you to the events, the times and the people that shaped our nation. And we'll show you how our history affected them, their families and affects you today.

We first covered Hunters, Washington back in season two. And while our reporting on it paused, our investigation into it did not. Jordan and an anonymous source have spent years digging into Hunters and the abandoned farmhouse there. And even as we thought there was nothing left to find, new information began pouring in. And continued pouring in as recording and post-production on this episode were happening. This episode was written, researched, and produced by Josh Hallmark. With research by: Jordan Taylor, Shana Wilensky, and Michelle Tooker.  TROVA TRIP to ICELANDLearn more and/or reserve your spot at https://trovatrip.com/trip/europe/iceland/iceland-with-josh-hallmark-jun-2026   PATREONThis is a Studio BOTH/AND production:  www.truecrimebullshit.com / bothand.fyi  For an ad-free experience: www.patreon.com/studiobothand  SPONSORS:Uncommon Goods: Get 15% off at www.UncommonGoods.com/TCBSCornbread Hemp: Get %30 off your first order by using promo code TCBS at www.cornbreadhemp.com/TCBSBetterHelp: Get 10% off your first month at www.BetterHelp.com/TCBQuince: Get free shipping at www.Quince.com/TCBSMusic by: Radical Face, Itai Argaman, Sergey Cheremisinov, and Nocturne. Patreon producers: Amy Basil, Kendall C., Heather Horton-Whedon, Sherri D, Kirsten Hoffman, Dale Akstin, Stephanie Taylor, Lydia Rodarte Quayle, Drew Vipond, Amelia Hancock, Christina Sisson, Nicole & Dennis Henry, Jillian Natale, Lana Halladay, Rural Juror, Tuesdi Woodworth, Zack Ignatowicz Warren, Kathleen Studer, Annette L, Casey Jensen-Richardson, SC, Benjamin Cioppa-Fong, Trista, Nichole, Asch Fish, Becky C, Pink, JenJ, Corey Deatly, Robin, Carol, Jordan M, Kate Lussier, John Comrie, Kathy Nation, Carrie, Jordan T, Bethany, Lauren Ferri, Emily Payne, Tori Myers, Sabrina Abbott, Megan Inman, Meaghan Daigle, Ashley Kuplin, Michael Randall, DeWayne C, Jen, Justin Runion.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-bullsh--3588169/support.
