The historical true-crime podcast “Buried Bones” — known for delving into tricky crimes from the late 1800s and early 1900s — is tackling a relatively modern case this week, and one pretty familiar to those in North Carolina: the Jeffrey MacDonald murders.
Kate Winkler Dawson, a journalism professor and author, hosts the popular podcast with Paul Holes, a retired forensic investigator and author who helped solve the Golden State Killer case in California.
Winkler Dawson also hosts the podcasts “Tenfold More Wicked,” which devotes an entire season to one historical true-crime case, and “Wicked Words,” in which she interviews authors about true-crime works. Holes co-hosted the now-defunct podcast “Jensen & Holes: The Murder Squad” and stars in the Oxygen TV series “The DNA of Murder with Paul Holes.”
