The Disappearance of the Hoggle Children | Still No Answers

Timestamp to skip intro: (5:44)In 2014, Maryland mother-of-three Catherine Hoggle had been struggling with her mental health.  Catherine had been involuntarily committed to a psychiatric facility at one point, and when she returned home, her family made care plans so that she would never be alone with her children.One evening in September 2014, Catherine convinced her father to let her take her son Jacob (2) with her to get a pizza.  A strange series of events followed, and the following morning, Troy Turner (the father of the children) discovered that Jacob AND his sister Sarah (3) were missing.Catherine told Troy that she had taken the kids to trial at a new daycare.  When Troy asked her where the daycare center was, Catherine claimed she could not remember.  No trace of either child has ever been found. Catherine would end up being indicted on murder charges in relation to her children.  This case has dragged on for over a decade due to repeated questions about Catherine’s mental health and her competency to stand trial.   In December 2025, a judge ruled that Catherine is now competent to stand trial for the murder of her children.  The trial is currently scheduled to take place this year, 2026.Read our blog for the Hoggle children - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2026/01/01/where-are-sarah-and-jacob-hoggle-missing-for-over-ten-years/This episode is sponsored by: IQBAR: The New Year means a clean slate.  Time to transform frustration into fuel, and power your day with IQBAR.  To get twenty percent off all IQBAR products, text CRIME to 64-000.

Ellen was found dead in her apartment in 2011 with 20 stab wounds, including some to her back and neck.   Ellen’s death was ruled a suicide and many people have argued that this ruling was incorrect.  How could someone stab themselves multiple times in the back? Ellen’s parents have fought for years to have her case re-examined and their petition was granted this year.   Another medical examiner reviewed the reports and information available, and again, ruled that Ellen’s death was a suicide. In this episode, we run through the new updates (including newly discovered wounds on Ellen’s body).  Was Ellen murdered or was her death truly suicide?

Timestamp to skip the intro: (11:00) Welcome back to another episode of the True Crime Society Podcast. In this episode we discuss two separate cases of missing celebrities: Joseph Pichler was a child star, best known for his roles in films such as Varsity Blues, Beethoven’s 3rd and Beethoven’s 4th.  In 2006,  Joseph’s vehicle was found abandoned in Washington State with a note indicating that his belongings should go to his brother.  Now, 19 years later, Joseph remains missing. Musician Richey Edwards was part of the British band ‘Manic Street Preachers.’  Richey had a documented history of mental health and addiction struggles.  Once when he was questioned about being serious about his music,  he carved the words ‘4 Real’ into his arm with a razor blade.  The injury required 18 stitches. In February 2005, Richey was due to leave London to fly to the United States to begin a press tour.  Instead, he left behind some of his belongings in his hotel and drove back to his apartment in Cardiff, Wales.  Over the next few weeks, there were reported sightings of Richey in that country.  His car would later be found abandoned near a bridge.  Reported sightings of Richey have come from India and Spain.  Richey has now been missing for over 20 years.
