Culpable Returns - A New SeasonA bizarre mystery has haunted a small town for more than a quarter of a century, but it's not too late to change that.

On October 24th, 1998, 17-year-old Danny Violette went missing from his home in the small town of Willard, Ohio. 11 days later, his body was found in a nearby cornfield with a ligature mark around his neck and a tire impression across his bare torso. More than 25 years later, Danny’s case remains unsolved, but a resurgence of interest has provided rare insight into years of investigative work and a chance at finally solving this mystery.

Join host Dennis Cooper as he explores unresolved cases where culpability has yet to be established. From Tenderfoot TV, a brand new season of Culpable is available now. Listen now wherever you get your favorite true crime podcasts. https://lnk.to/culpable
