Ward Weaver had a turbulent childhood. He had an abusive father who left when he was young and his mother remarried a man who was also allegedly abusive. Ward modeled those same behaviors in the relationships that he had as an adult. Then, in 2002, when two young girls went missing in Oregon in the span of two months, Ward became the prime suspect.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the life and crimes of Ward Weaver. Weaver wasn't shy about telling the media that he knew police believed he had something to do with the disappearances of both Ashley Pond and Miranda Gaddis. He maintained his innocence and told the media that the police were harassing him. But, when he was arrested for another crime, police got the break they needed to prove that Ward Weaver was a murderer. The crimes against these young girls were horrific, as would the reasons behind the murders.
