This week, in Arcadia Township, Michigan, it's a mystery, when a woman is found dead, floating in a lake, near a boat dock. Her husband says that he left the area, and she just disappeared, but the evidence tells a slightly different story, with her smashing to the concrete, before somehow ending up in the lake. Plus, affairs, gambling, alcohol & pills are all in the mix. Was this all a tragic accident, or was she murdered in a seriously cold blooded way??Along the way, we find out that local bands make for the strangest festivals, that an affair might not be a motive for murder, if you didn't know the affair was happening, and that human bodies definitely don't bounce off of concrete!!New episodes every Thursday!Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com and use our email: [email protected] to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports!Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/smalltownpodinstagram.com/smalltownmurderAlso, check out James & Jimmie's other show, Crime In Sports!

What is the mystery in Arcadia Township, Michigan?
Not Lapeer. I would have gotten – No. I know Pierre, I could pronounce that, but Lapeer County, I guess. I don't know, Lapeer, whatever the hell it is. This is two hours and 15 minutes to Grand Rapids, where we will be in September. Two hours to our last Michigan episode, Crockery Township, Michigan, which was the Battle of the Neighbors, which was wild stuff. I love those.
For some reason, I love the ones where it's two neighbors fighting for years and then there's a showdown. For some reason, those really interest me. I don't know why.
Because you don't want to talk to them. It's validation for you. Yes. Yeah, this is why.
This is why. Just mind your business.
Obviously, I don't want to barbecue with them. God damn it.
Stick to yourself. Next thing you know, we'll be having a gunfight in the yard. We'll be dueling in the yard in front of the fucking ribs. So this is in Manistee County, area code 231. And there is no motto, but I'm going to give you what it says on the website about this place. This is kind of what their whole deal here.
Since the 1900s, the climate tempered by the cool waters of Lake Michigan has made Arcadia a refuge for those seeking relief from the pressures and confinement of the metropolitan areas of southern Michigan and neighboring states. They're telling you, can't take it anymore. Come here for a weekend. That's what it is. It's just all like a little resort lake town.
There's no sticking around. No. Come by for a bit and get the fuck out of town.
This is where they played pool in the great outdoors and stuck that pool cue between the chick's legs and she flung it across the... Yeah, that's where we are here, except Michigan and not Wisconsin.
