Gretchen Macaulay is a true crime enthusiast since she started reading acclaimed author Anne Rule’s true crime stories and stayed up watching Unsolved Mysteries in junior high. As the years went on and while studying anthropology in college she still managed to squeeze in every episode of dateline and forensic files into her busy life. With all those hours of crime TV she thinks of herself as a true detective, although technically she mostly worked in hospitality aboard boats along side her husband of the past 11 years. Today Gretchen lives in Orange County California where she is raising three young children. Like so many other moms out there that find themselves drowning in sesame street and diapers, when she has moments to herself she escapes into mind stimulating true crime series.
