Hitchhiking was once a rite of passage for teenagers in the 1970s Pacific Northwest—a symbol of freedom, adventure, and trust in the kindness of strangers. But for many young women, that freedom was stolen when a charming predator began using the open road as his hunting ground.

Stolen Voices of Dole Valley, a new true crime podcast from KSL Podcasts and hosted by journalist Carolyn Ossorio, tells the chilling story of a killer who hid in plain sight while leaving behind a trail of grief, fear, and unanswered questions. Police believe this man was responsible for the kidnapping, torture, and murders of multiple women, some of whom were never found. Survivors who narrowly escaped him and families who have never stopped fighting for justice now speak out in this gripping series.

The podcast takes listeners back to the 1970s, weaving together the voices of survivors, grieving families, and investigators to paint a haunting portrait of lives cut short—and the strength of those determined to make sure their daughters, sisters, and friends are not forgotten.

With its premiere, Stolen Voices of Dole Valley invites listeners to confront a chilling past while honoring the courage of those who lived to tell. The series is more than the story of a predator—it’s a chronicle of lost girls, found strength, and the relentless pursuit of truth.
