Edna Thorne ////// 852 Part 1of 1 www.TrueCrimeGarage.comPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania June 24, 1975 - 15 year old Edna Christine Thorne went missing after visiting the horse stables near her home. That day she asked her sister is she wanted to go visit the horse with her, but she declined. Edna was last seen leaving the Tioga Street horse stables. Like so many cases in the 70s, the police initially treated Edna’s case as a runaway case but eventually concluded this to be unlikely. Authorities now suspect that Edna Thorne was abducted and likely killed.

Amber Spradlin, Aliza Sherman, & Amy Hooper ////// UpdatesPart 1 of 1 www.TrueCrimeGarage.comThis week from the Garage, we are very happy to be bringing to you major updates in three cases that we have covered. 38 year old Amber Spradlin was killed at an after work party sometime in the night of June 18, 2023. True Crime Garage covered this case in July of 2023 with episode #687. Since, arrests have been made and trial dates have been set. In 2013 Cleveland Clinic nurse Aliza Sherman was killed in downtown Cleveland in broad daylight. Back in December of 2017 we covered his “stranger than fiction” true crime story in a four part series. These were episodes #167 to #170. As we predicted Aliza Sherman’s divorce attorney Gregory Moore was arrested and charged with her murder. In March of 1992, Amy Hooper was murdered in her Lincoln Village apartment on the westside of Columbus, Ohio. In December of 2025 Bruce Daniels was arrested for this homicide in Washington state. We are keeping a close eye on this one as it inches closer to the murder trial.

Devil in the Ozarks ////// 848Part 1 of 1 www.TrueCrimeGarage.comNorthwest Arkansas 2017 - a former Police Chief murders a man in cold blood then takes his family out for a nice dinner. Grant Hardin, a man who was relieved of his duties as Police Chief for harassing and threatening the civilians of Gateway, Arkansas was arrested for the murder of James Appleton. Later and to everyone’s surprise, Grant Hardin was charged with another violent crime from 20 years prior. Grant's evil deeds and ways earned him the name “The Devil in the Ozarks.” Grant Hardin was due to likely spend the rest of his natural life behind prison walls but that all changed in May of 2025 when the Devil himself walked out and away from the Arkansas Department of Corrections’ North Central Unit in Calico Rock. 30 minutes later a national fugitive manhunt ensued.
