{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Episode 315 - It's Happening - The Murder of Matthew Restelli","description":"A ten-hour drive through the night to American Fork, Utah. A message that sounded like forgiveness. An unlocked door waiting at the end of it.\n\nMatthew Restelli believed he was going to bring his family home. Instead, he stepped into something already set in motion. Inside that home, nothing was as it seemed. Not the messages. Not the welcome. Not even the danger.\n\nHow to support:\nFor extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -\nGo to - Patreon\n (https://www.patreon.com/MadnessPod)\nHow to connect:\nWebsite (https://mindsofmadnesspodcast.com/)\nInstagram (https://www.instagram.com/themindsofmadness/)\nFacebook (https://www.facebook.com/themindsofmadness/)\nTwitter (https://twitter.com/MadnessPod)\n\nTheme and Closing Track:\nOriginal compositions created for The Minds of Madness\n\nPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:\nShopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at https://shopify.com/madness\nQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.
