Introducing: Killer Communications

AbJack Entertainment, the same network that brings you The Murder In My Family, has a brand new show launching March 1,2025. It's called Killer Communications, and it's hosted by Mike Morford. In each episode of Killer Communications, Mike discusses a true crime case where one of the clues is a mysterious form of contact; whether it's a frightening phone call to a victim, a mysterious email to the press, or a taunting letter sent to the press, these bizarre communications happen more often than you might think, and sometimes have deadly consequences.

In this short preview of Killer Communications, Season 1 Episode 1, you'll hear about the case of Dale Williams, a father and husband, who was lured from the Nucla, Colorado body shop he owned by a mysterious caller in 1999. He was never seen again. His abandoned truck was found submerged in a local waterway, but there was never any sign of Dale himself. Despite an ex-friend of Dale's being a longtime suspect in the case, police were never able to make an arrest. But that all changed in 2024 when an arrest and answers finally came.

After you listen to this preview of Killer Communications, head over to your favorite podcast app, and be sure to subscribe to Killer Communications, so you can hear the full episode on Dale Williams, and catch every new episode of Killer Communications.

A note from show Creator and host Mike Morford:

"I stepped away from hosting duties in 2024 but continued to produce the show. Host Eric Cater-Landin took over hosting duties, but due to personal reasons, had to step away from the podcast. At this point, after careful consideration, I have decided to end the show. It's been my honor to create this show and provide a platform to families of the murdered, to discuss their loved one's case, and how it affected them. Sometimes, in cases that were still unsolved, we were able to shine a light on the case to help generate tips and leads, in an effort to help see resolution. In some solved cases we've covered, we heard from families who had received justice for their loved one, but were not fighting to keep their killer behind bars. Thank you to the dozens of families who trusted me, and have shared your stories with me, and our listeners. I hope that I was able to present your story in the most respectful and accurate way possible. And to the listeners; Thank you for supporting not just the show, but for also supporting the guests that we had on who opened up to us about something so tragic and personal. All my best, Mike Morford"
