Case 211: Cari Farver 

The plot twist ones are always my favorite casefile episodes. The narrator and the writing team always do a great job of revealing the twist at the best possible moment

"He called out to her, as she slithered away into the night" LOL

This is the way to start a Saturday morning with casefile and Friends from around the world. Happy weekend

Liz is an absolute psychopath for leaving those poor animals to die in that house and pretend that Carri lit that fire! Anyone who would allow any animal to die in that way would have ZERO problems with killing a human. I feel utterly terrible for Carri's mother and son, and if they ever happen to read this, please know that you both have my absolute sympathy, and I am so sorry for your loss! I have been single for almost 20 years after a heartbreaking divorce to my childhood sweetheart after 23 years of being together and 19 years of marriage and over the years my children have attempted to encourage me to go on these dating websites, but honestly Hell would have to freeze over before I'd do that! I'm not very trusting of humans because every single year, there's more violence and self adoration than the year before. I'd rather spend time with my cats, and I am content with them. At least I don't have to worry about one of them setting my house on fire with me inside! Thanks, CF, for your brilliant work. There are only another 165 episodes to go until I'm caught up! Thanks for reading.

Just when you think things couldn't get more bonkers, along comes this case file! TBH I was getting confused as to who was who and who was doing what! The depths of Liz's hate is unimaginable to me. And knowing the guilt that poor Dave carries with him is heartbreaking. I'm still consistently surprised by how unhinged so many ppl are on this planet!! And btw, I wholeheartedly agree with other posts in that the writing of these stories is impeccable and keeps me gripped from start to finish. Well done Casefile! 👏👏

Man... I hate to say it like this, because I know it's extreme, but I think really, the only 2 ways to stop a stalker is to jail them for life, or for them to die.

I knew the story from other channels but I realized it only in mid-episode. I love the way you narrate!

there are many running true crime series but not many are as engaging and just as good as this one ☝️ thanks Casefile! great work

What really gets me is that if the police had looked into Cari as a missing person even a little, they might have found out that Liz was to blame earlier. I get why they made their original assumption, but as the years went on? They owed her family a better investigation.

I used to watch casefile religiously then somehow lost the channel. I was looking up the name of a case and refound the channel!!! I'm so grateful

This is one of the most bizarre cases I've heard yet. You have an awesome channel. Keep up the great work🥰

Greetings and salutations all from Cabbagetown in Toronto! The bodum and i salute you.

Jesus *christ* did this one throw me for a loop

CaseFiles! Thanx for the upload. Be safe everybody.

Wait how was someone not arrested earlier for arson and stalking and attempted murder and cruelty to animals and vandalism?? I mean it was a crazy twisting story but the police should have been investigating those things till they found the culprit right? Maybe they were at that point. Just seems it took a long time. What a crazy psycho though! Poor Cari how awful! Even killed her own animals. Stocking should be taken more seriously and missing persons too. Thanks for posting. And so sad for Cari’s family.

Cold Saturday night in Adelaide... Perfect timing. Thanks Casefile.

I have been up all night, thank the universe for my casefiile sleeping pill. Cheers casefile, fr panama. An insomniacs sleeping pill. Yay!!!!!!!

like always perfect podcast thank you!

I'm so glad Cari was a good mom... that her son had a good grandma... that he went on to university. I wish the best for him and hope he honors his mom and grandmother by living a good life.

This might be one of the most terrifying true crime's I've ever heard. Yikes!!

me too .M R. Cheers from South Coast Nsw Australia.

Hi Casefile. You always do such an outstanding job of telling these stories- the writing is completely on point. This one bothered me right from the beginning, when Cari was suspected of being the stalker. I've faced somewhat of a similar situation where an absolute stranger walked into my life and tried to take it over, with behaviour escalating from annoying to terrifying. You can't do anything about it, except to report each separate incident- and have to continue being victimized while the case builds. It makes it even worse when a computer gets involved and crafty people hide their bad selves behind a fluorescent screen. A lot of lives have been destroyed due to cyberbullying activity, and I hope that law surrounding technology begins to advance the way DNA technology did- that's going to be the key to solving a lot of today and tomorrow's cases. Terrific job as usual, Casefile team!

Great Saturday!!!

If the stalker was a man, and not a woman, he would have been arrested years ago.

Is it sad im more horrified that she left her pets in the fire to die than i am over the stalking imitating and murder

Sounds like my sons mother. She used to hide in my closet till I came home and wait for me to call another woman. I never did.

The events recounted here in this episode of Casefile mirror the confusion undoubtedly experienced & felt by the effected people. Almost like having to endure a wicked guessing game in a series of mirrored rooms. Who is really behind the mirror. Although a mental illness is involved it is hard to imagine such a level of premeditated wickedness could have such a clarity. Hard to critique without having to issue a " spoiler alert ". Well worth listening !!!

Crazy AF🤯

Wow! This was twisted!

How can people be so incredibly cruel!!!!

Interesting case, but the excessive number of ads made this video practically unlistenable.

Great case. But way too many ads.

Thank you.

I thought, "What is wrong with Liz, spending time with someone who has a stalker/crazy ex, ?" OOOOOOOHHHHHHH! THAT EXPLAINS IT!

I'm 24 minutes in wondering how far things need to get before the cops put down their donuts and make an arrest.

I had a feeling it was liz after she accused the ex wife. I find it rare that someone can be obsessed with someone else after living with them and having kids with them then getting into a divorce with that person.

Oh yes 🙌

mind blown!!

Great video…2nd time listening…love triangles can be very dangerous

I can't listen to this drone on anymore with no mention whatsoever of police involvement.😂

why wasn't she arrested after the fire?

I found this one very confusing. Why did the police tell Liz that they'd "keep an eye on Amy" regarding Cari instead of arresting Amy for shooting her?

This one happened in my state. O.o crazy bish

Hell hath no fury...

>8-D **YeS** Anon-is-in da 'OoousE

Her scheme was Machiavellian in a Forrest Gump sort of way. Haha

Sounds like CreepShow Art

Excellent, scary as hell episode. Sounds like Amanda Heard was inspired by this nutty broad.

Dave brought it on himself for sleeping around

I just heard about this case on another channel that posted a few hours ago. Why is all of a sudden evryone talking about this case. And no word about Cari if being declared missing after she was seen last by Dave at his apartment. I usually like your video but I don't like how you put the story togheter this time. In the beginning you say only Cari did this and that ,but not a single word about her being missing and how her relatives and 14 yeaalr old boy got some strange messages.

Imagine a guy did this , would have been hauled off for 10 years after the 2 incident , nice double standards society

The writing in these is bloody fabulous, just enough description to paint the scene without being tedious and the timing of the twists is bang on.

What a great episode, what a twist

It is scary. Not only is getting involved with a psychopath dangerous but even a regular guy who has had a relationship with a psychopath can get you killed.

netflix doc 2024 covers this case, i had to come back and listen after watching it. this podcast gives WAY more details. Kudos to the researchers/writers. My question is What Actually Happened to Cari? Liz jumped her in the car that morning after Dave left to work and killed her? then immediately started texting Dave to move in/assuming Cari's identity online. WILD.

Love these twisty ones. Always great story telling and narration.

Watched the new Netflix short series about this murder I’d highly recommend it

Im in for a psychological enigma, it appears. Onward!

Terrific episode, great writing! So many twists!

This is one of the most twisted cases I've heard of. I've heard some twisted ones, but to keep it going for YEARS!!??

👏👏👏

Nothing but a black widow!!!

I live in Omaha lol crazy little city 😃

Way too many commercials 🫤

Dave must be some kind of stud!

Shocking

From the fear files how come you guys just do the same thing
