Shadows and Scandal: The Death of Cindy James and the Mossler-Powers Scandal

Inside the baffling 1989 death of Cindy James and the scandalous Mossler-Powers murder trial

In this episode, we examine two cases that blur the line between perception and proof.

First, we explore the controversial death of Cindy James — a woman who reported years of stalking, threats, and violent attacks before she was found dead under circumstances that still divide investigators and the public. Was she the victim of a relentless predator, or is there another explanation that no one wants to confront? Decades later, the questions linger.

Then we turn to the sensational Mossler-Powers Trial, the high-society courtroom drama that followed the brutal killing of millionaire Jacques Mossler. At the center: his glamorous wife Candace Mossler and her alleged lover, Melvin Powers. The trial became a media spectacle filled with scandal, betrayal, and a verdict that shocked many.

Two cases. Two narratives shaped by doubt, reputation, and public opinion. One episode that asks how truth gets complicated when fear, love, and scrutiny collide.
