The Missing Sodder Children Ft. Lindsay Fr. Ye Olde Crime Podcast - a podcast by Jules Ph.D

The year was 1945, Christmas Eve. George and Jenny Sodder and their nine children would go to sleep. Strange events would happen throughout the night. An unnerving phone call, a loud bang that was heard on the roof, the door being left unlocked, the phone lines being cut and subsequently a fire that would ravage the home. In the chaos five of the children are missing. What happened to the children, had they perished in the fire? or had the fire been meant to cover up a kidnapping?
