65. MYSTERY: What Happened in Room 1046?

In 1935, a peculiar young man named Roland T. Owen checked into room 1046 at the Hotel President in Kansas City, Missouri. Two nights later, he was dead. This is no typical murder story. As it turns out, Roland T. Owen was a fake name, and even when they learned the true identity of the dead man, that didn’t shed any light on what he was doing in Kansas City, why he was murdered, or who might want him dead.  Want more from us?
