The Springfield Three Ep.4: Grave Robbers, A Haunted Girl Scout Camp and Other Theories

Ozarks True Crime

In episode four of the Springfield Three, we start to delve into the leading theories that emerge. We’ll talk about a group of men who were arrested for stealing gold fillings out of corpses’ mouths in a local cemetery—one of whom was dating Suzie. We’ll talk about a boy who tells the haunting story of seeing the women in what locals called “The Girl Scout Camp.” It’s a story that would haunt him for the rest of his life. We’ll talk about the van—an infamous piece of information in this case. And we’ll talk about the theory that the women are buried underneath a parking lot, one that still continues to ripple throughout the town nearly 30 years later.
