A new podcast has unearthed fresh clues in the notorious unsolved case of Robert Fisher, the Scottsdale father suspected of murdering his family before their house exploded in 2001.

For the first time, new insights are being revealed, along with a new reward for information that could lead to the arrest of one of the Valley’s most elusive fugitives.

This case has captivated the public for decades, drawing attention from many, including the True Crime Arizona team, which produced the documentary “Finding Robert Fisher” in 2022.

Now, in collaboration with iHeartMedia, a new podcast titled “Missing in Arizona” delves deeper into this case than ever before.

“We found new witnesses who changed the timeline entirely,” said Jon Walczak, journalist and host of the podcast, who has conducted more than 60 interviews over two years.

Until now, the prevailing narrative was that Fisher allegedly slit the throats of his daughter Brittney, son Bobby, and wife Mary, also reportedly shooting Mary in the head. He was last seen on camera at an ATM in Scottsdale at 10:42 PM on April 9, 2001, driving his wife’s 4Runner.

Police believe Robert cut a gas line in the home and lit a candle, leading to the house exploding into flames the next morning around 8:40.

Mary’s car was discovered 10 days later in the woods near Young, Arizona, about 24 miles southeast of Payson. Robert’s dog was found alive with the vehicle, but there was no sign of Robert—then or since.

“There’s been this question: Did he flee after the ATM? Did he go home? Did he have a 10-12 hour head start on law enforcement?” Walczak explained. “What we found is two new witnesses who saw Mary’s SUV at 3:30 and 5:30 at the Fisher house, confirming that he did not flee immediately. He was still at home seven hours later.”

El FBI informa que Robert William Fisher es buscado por supuestamente matar a su esposa y sus dos hijos pequeños y luego volar la casa en la que todos vivían en Scottsdale, Arizona.

Un nuevo podcast ha desenterrado nuevas pistas en el famoso caso sin resolver de Robert Fisher, el padre de Scottsdale sospechoso de asesinar a su familia antes de que su casa explotara en 2001.

Por primera vez, se revelan nuevos conocimientos, junto con una nueva recompensa por información que podría conducir al arresto de uno de los fugitivos más esquivos del Valle.

Este caso ha cautivado al público durante décadas, llamando la atención de muchos, incluido el equipo de True Crime Arizona, que produjo el documental “Finding Robert Fisher” en 2022.

Ahora, en colaboración con iHeartMedia, un nuevo podcast titulado “Missing in Arizona” profundiza más que nunca en este caso.

“Encontramos nuevos testigos que cambiaron la línea de tiempo por completo”, dijo Jon Walczak, periodista y presentador del podcast, que ha realizado más de 60 entrevistas a lo largo de dos años.

Hasta ahora, la narrativa predominante era que Fisher supuestamente degolló a su hija Brittney, su hijo Bobby y su esposa Mary, y supuestamente también le disparó a Mary en la cabeza. Fue visto por última vez ante la cámara en un cajero automático en Scottsdale a las 10:42 p.m. del 9 de abril de 2001, conduciendo la 4Runner de su esposa.

La policía cree que Robert cortó una línea de gas en la casa y encendió una vela, lo que provocó que la casa explotara en llamas a la mañana siguiente alrededor de las 8:40.

El auto de Mary fue descubierto 10 días después en el bosque cerca de Young, Arizona, a unas 24 millas al sureste de Payson. El perro de Robert fue encontrado vivo con el vehículo, pero no había señales de Robert, ni entonces ni desde entonces.

“Ha habido esta pregunta: ¿Huyó tras el cajero automático? ¿Se fue a casa? ¿Tenía una ventaja de 10 a 12 horas sobre las fuerzas del orden?” explicó Walczak. “Lo que encontramos son dos nuevos testigos que vieron la camioneta de Mary a las 3:30 y 5:30 en la casa de Fisher, confirmando que no huyó de inmediato. Todavía estaba en casa siete horas después”.
