The Plunger - Charles Coffman

Today's True Crime To-Go is a disturbing case out of Knoxville, Tennessee, that began with a welfare check on June 22, 2025. Hosts Jamie and John detail the horrifying discovery made by police: a man brutally assaulted, bound, and doused with bleach, while his 3-year-old stepdaughter and SUV were missing. The story escalates into a tense police chase, leading to the arrest of 19-year-old Charles Coffman and the recovery of the unharmed toddler. Listeners will hear Coffman's chilling confession of the assault, his girlfriend's corroborating account, and the mother's denial, all piecing together a perplexing crime of violence, kidnapping, and deception, with an ongoing investigation into the full motives and circumstances.
