His father Willie Walker described his relationship with son as close. Willie had become VonMason’s primary caretaker when he was a child. Willie considered his son a good man who was motivated to make his own way. He eventually become a security guard. But after some time on the job, VonMason followed in his father’s footsteps and became a truck driver.


Willie felt that his son had made a great career choice and was on his way to getting set for life. Unfortunately, Willie’s life changed forever when he learned that his beloved son had died from a gunshot wound on October 16, 2015. According to Willie, he was told that VonMason was dancing around with a gun and tripped over a toy and accidentally killed himself.


Willie said this was a deduction made from the Columbus police department because no one in the house corroborated this story. Willie found the explanation ludicrous. He would hire a private investigator who looked into the matter further. Based on the investigator’s findings, VonMason’s death was no accident.


Willie has spent the past several years trying to get the Columbus Police Department to change VonMason’s death from accidental shooting to a homicide. He has been unsuccessful. Willie shared VonMason’s story with me hoping that someone will listen to his pleas for help in getting to the truth of what really happened to his beloved son.


What truly happened to VonMason? Was the shooting accidental or did someone kill him and get away with murder? Willie Walker doesn’t believe the Columbus Police Department will do anything with any tips they might receive. If you have a valuable tip, please contact Willie Walker directly at (614) - 441-6911. He would like to screen out tips and then discuss them with law enforcement personally.

Her daughter Candy Sharp said her mother was a different person when she was intoxicated. When sober, Donna would bring Candy’s two sisters to visit her in Ohio. Candy didn’t live with her mother. She lived in Ohio with her adopted family who raised her. Although Candy wasn’t raised by her mother, the two were close and Donna made sure she kept in touch with Candy.



Donna Mullen disappeared on July 19, 1986. A neighbor saw Donna leave her home on North 2nd Street in Jacksonville Beach. According to Candy, her mother had left home with a gun saying she was going to shoot someone. Donna's daughters believe it’s possible their mother was killed in a drug deal gone bad. Candy and her sister April have continuously sought justice for their mother. Unfortunately, their sister Michelle has since passed away without know ever knowing what happened to Donna.


Donna Mullen was 37 years old at the time, 5 foot 1 inch tall, with brown hair, and blue eyes. The mother of three had affectionately been known as “Duck” due to the way she walked. She had a few distinctive tattoos, including a black panther on her left shoulder and two red hearts with a black “K” on her right wrist. She also had pierced ears and a scar from a hysterectomy on her abdomen. She disappeared nearly 40 years ago. What happened to this missing mother?


Donna’s two surviving daughters have been on a quest to find out what happened to their mother. Can you help Candy and her sister April get answers for their missing mother who is presumed dead?

Before 11 p.m. on July 1, 2019, Lashea Facetimed her father. He then changed into his pajamas before getting ready for bed. Unfortunately, he wouldn’t be getting any rest that evening. Consuela said a female friend named had shown up at the house and requested a ride home.
William got out of bed and left with this friend. Family members said the trip to her home shouldn't have taken long. William had given her rides home in the past, so the request wasn't suspicious.


A few hours later, Lashea's son became concerned when his grandfather had not returned home. He had to call the friend because his grandfather had left his phone at home. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to speak to the friend because she didn’t answer her phone. The next morning, the family discovered that William's 2001 Lincoln had been cordoned off by law enforcement. His vehicle had become a crime scene. William, still in his pajamas, was discovered outside his vehicle at Blaine and Centennial. Someone had beaten the elderly grandfather to death. His skull was bashed in and his teeth were knocked out. The beating was violent and fatal.


Family members were stunned by his death. William's family couldn't understand why anyone would want to kill the elderly man. The family also noticed that the family friends wasn’t at the crime scene. Consuela got into her vehicle and searched for the friend. She found the friend walking down along a road. Consuela picked her up and drover her to the Muncie police station. According to Consuela and Lashea, law enforcement let the friend leave without charges.


Consuela began investigating her father's death. She spoke with a witness who lived with the friend. According to him, she came home upset. She allegedly had blood on her clothing and defecated on herself. According to the witness, the friend said she had just murdered someone. She then recanted her statement and said she was kidding. After cleaning herself up, he said she left in a hurry. When she made the statement, he hadn’t known William was deceased. He presented Consuela with an article of bloody clothing belonging to the friend. Law enforcement refused to accept the evidence because they weren't the ones who seized it. I had asked the sisters why law enforcement didn’t arrest her father’s friend. Both said she claimed that she didn't know anything.


Four years have passed since someone brutally beat William Balfour Sr. to death. Family members believe the friend knows much more about William's death than she's ever revealed. This is the conclusion of a two-part story. If you haven't listened to the first half, please go back and listen. Who killed William Balfour Sr. on July 2, 2019? Someone out there knows. The family is pleading for your help. If you have a valuable tip, you can contact Muncie Crime Stoppers at 765-286-4050.

While working construction type work building roads and planting trees, he continued playing his banjo with a goal of making it big in the music business. His career began when he entered a contest being judged by singer-guitarist-musical saw player Asa Martin. After impressing Martin, he soon joined Martin’s band.


During a performance, Martin had forgotten David Akeman’s name. So he just introduced Akeman as “String Beans” The nickname was given to him based on his tall lanky frame. Apparently, the name stuck and David Akeman would become known simply as String Bean.


Not only did Stringbean become known for his musical abilities, he also became known for being a funny guy. Stringbean became known as a comedian musician. He also broadcast on WLAP out of Lexington, Kentucky, and played with different groups during the late 1930s. Strange enough, old country music back in the 30s didn’t include much banjo playing. However, Stringbean was able to keep banjo playing relevant in country music.


Interesting enough, Stringbean was also a decent semi pro baseball player. His baseball playing skills became known to Bill Monroe, who had his own semi pro club. Monroe was so impressed with Stringbean that he added Stringbean to his band. He played in Monroe’s band from 1943 until 1945.


After Stringbean left Monroe in 1945, he was replaced by another popular banjo player named Earl Scruggs, who had a different sound than Stringbean. Stringbean would also go on marry his sweetheart Estelle Stanfill in 1945. The following year he would begin working with another banjo player named Louis Marshall Jones, affectionately known as Grandpa Jones. The two men would both be together doing comedy in the television program Hee Haw. Grandpa Jones was a WWII veteran and would become Stringbean’s closest friend. The men also became neighbors in Goodlettsville, Tennessee.


Akeman was one of the Opry's top stars throughout the 1950s. Oddly enough, he didn't begin recording on his own until the early '60s, when he signed to the Starday label. He had hits with "Chewing Gum" and "I Wonder Where Wanda Went," and recorded seven albums between 1961 and 1972.


His first album was titled Old Time Pickin' and Grinnin' with Stringbean which was released in 1961. His music was considered folk stories with a taste of comedy. At the time, Stringbean and his buddy Grandpa Jones became the two biggest old time banjo players of their era.


In 1969, a country style comedy would come to television. The program would be called Hee Haw and was on television from 1969 to 1993. The program lasted for 26 seasons and recorded 655 episodes. Any popular country musician who was anybody appeared on the show.


Unfortunately, Stringbean and his wife Estelle would be tragically murdered on November 10, 1973. After the couple returned home from a performance at the Grand Ole Opry, they walked in on a robbery by two men. Stringbean was shot to death in front of his fireplace and his wife Estelle was shot to death outside their home while trying to flee the robbers.


It would be Grandpa Jones who would find the bodies of his beloved friends the next day. Grandpa Jones had plans to pick Stringbean up the next day for a a planned hunting trip. Grandpa Jones would learn the sad truth when he pulled up to his friend’s cabin at 2308 Baker Road near Ridgetop, Tennessee. According to author Taylor Hagood, Stringbean and Estelle didn’t believe in using banks. Both were alive during the Great Depression when many people who had money in their banks lost it all.


Stringbean was known to keep thousands of dollars in cash laying around his house. Grandpa warned him many times to not keep his money in the house. He told Stringbean that one day, keeping that cash around the house would get him killed. When Grandpa found the bodies of his murdered friends, he knew the day he worried about had finally come. The murders shocked Nashville residents. Author Taylor Hagood would write a book about Strinbean's life and death.


For his book about Stringbean, Hagood interviewed one of the lead investigators in the case, surviving members of Stringbean’s family and fellow musicians who knew Stringbean personally. He then compiled his findings into the book titled Stringbean: The Life and Murder of a Country Legend.


If you enjoy reading. True crime books. then I highly recommend that you purchase a copy of Taylor's book and add it to your collection. The book takes you from String Bean's humble beginnings as a child who loved music to becoming a country music legend. You can get your own copy of Stringbean: The Life and Murder of a Country Legend written by Taylor Hagood on Amazon.com or wherever else you purchase your favorite books.

His career began when he entered a contest being judged by singer-guitarist-musical saw player Asa Martin. After impressing Martin, he soon joined Martin’s band.


During a performance, Martin had forgotten David Akeman’s name. So he just introduced Akeman as “String Beans” The nickname was given to him based on his tall lanky frame. Apparently, the name stuck and David Akeman would become known simply as String Bean.


Not only did Stringbean become known for his musical abilities, he also became known for being a funny guy. Stringbean became known as a comedian musician. He also broadcast on WLAP out of Lexington, Kentucky, and played with different groups during the late 1930s. Strange enough, old country music back in the 30s didn’t include much banjo playing. However, Stringbean was able to keep banjo playing relevant in country music.


Interesting enough, Stringbean was also a decent semi pro baseball player. His baseball playing skills became known to Bill Monroe, who had his own semi pro club. Monroe was so impressed with Stringbean that he added Stringbean to his band. He played in Monroe’s band from 1943 until 1945.


After Stringbean left Monroe in 1945, he was replaced by another popular banjo player named Earl Scruggs, who had a different sound than Stringbean. Stringbean would also go on marry his sweetheart Estelle Stanfill in 1945. The following year he would begin working with another banjo player named Louis Marshall Jones, affectionately known as Grandpa Jones. The two men would both be together doing comedy in the television program Hee Haw. Grandpa Jones was a WWII veteran and would become Stringbean’s closest friend. The men also became neighbors in Goodlettsville, Tennessee.


Akeman was one of the Opry's top stars throughout the 1950s. Oddly enough, he didn't begin recording on his own until the early '60s, when he signed to the Starday label. He had hits with "Chewing Gum" and "I Wonder Where Wanda Went," and recorded seven albums between 1961 and 1972.


His first album was titled Old Time Pickin' and Grinnin' with Stringbean which was released in 1961. His music was considered folk stories with a taste of comedy. At the time, Stringbean and his buddy Grandpa Jones became the two biggest old time banjo players of their era.


In 1969, a country style comedy would come to television. The program would be called Hee Haw and was on television from 1969 to 1993. The program lasted for 26 seasons and recorded 655 episodes. Any popular country musician who was anybody appeared on the show.


Unfortunately, Stringbean and his wife Estelle would be tragically murdered on November 10, 1973. After the couple returned home from a performance at the Grand Ole Opry, they walked in on a robbery by two men. Stringbean was shot to death in front of his fireplace and his wife Estelle was shot to death outside their home while trying to flee the robbers.

It would be Grandpa Jones who would find the bodies of his beloved friends the next day. Grandpa Jones had plans to pick Stringbean up the next day for a a planned hunting trip. Grandpa Jones would learn the sad truth when he pulled up to his friend’s cabin at 2308 Baker Road near Ridgetop, Tennessee. According to author Taylor Hagood, Stringbean and Estelle didn’t believe in using banks. Both were alive during the Great Depression when many people who had money in their banks lost it all.


Stringbean was known to keep thousands of dollars in cash laying around his house. Grandpa warned him many times to not keep his money in the house. He told Stringbean that one day, keeping that cash around the house would get him killed. When Grandpa found the bodies of his murdered friends, he knew the day he worried about had finally come. The murders shocked Nashville residents. Author Taylor Hagood would write a book about Strinbean's life and death.


For his book about Stringbean, Hagood interviewed one of the lead investigators in the case, surviving members of Stringbean’s family and fellow musicians who knew Stringbean personally. He then compiled his findings into the book titled Stringbean: The Life and Murder of a Country Legend.

He received his commissary and was able to visit with his family without any disruptions. After leaving prison, Cory struggled with finding work since it can be difficult to find a job with a felony. But he remained positive and didn’t want to return to prison. He focused on working and spending time with his handicapped daughter. Charish said he loved his daughter and committed his life to being a supportive father.


According to Charish, Cory had asked a friend to take him to the store on May 21st, 2019. The friend said he wore a sweatshirt with a hood and a black and red backpack. This was the last time Cory was officially last seen. After Cory didn’t show up to celebrate his birthday with his family, they became concerned. They knew he would have shown up to celebrate his birthday. Charish began reaching out to Cory’s acquaintances looking for him. His disappearance was also reported to law enforcement.


Today, Charish has spent time speaking to people who knew her brother and taken to social media to try to locate her brother’s body. She is convinced he’s been murdered because she knows he would never walk away from his daughter or family members. For now, she just wants to recover his body so he can receive a proper burial and the family can grieve over the loss.

Scherry had described her son as a good son. Michael and his dad Eddie were both huge NBA fans and share a love for basketball. Eddie had worked with his son on improving his game so that he could possibly play professional basketball in the future. Michael spent much of his youth playing in high school and junior college.


Unfortunately, Michael would give up on his dream of playing professional basketball and leave college without earning a degree. His mother said he would just take a series of different jobs and focus more on financially supporting his kids and looking out for his mother. Michael’s case is controversial. According to his mother, law enforcement claims Michael was last seen riding on a bicycle and then possibly committing suicide by jumping into a river. There were witnesses who saw an unidentified man jumping into a local river.


Scherry has said she has been told by law enforcement they believe Michael has committed suicide. Sherry disputes this. She said she has seen a blown-up photo of the man on the bike. She said he was a darker-skinned man and wasn’t her son as police claim. She also said there is no confirmation that the man who allegedly jumped into the river was her son. Another source of contention between law enforcement and Michael’s family is that a neighbor told Michael’s family that she saw Michael checking his mailbox sometime between 4:20 p.m. and 4:40 p.m. on the day he disappeared. Scherry has said law enforcement has never spoken to this neighbor.


I asked Scherry if Michael had any enemies. She said that he was concerned for his life. He told his mother that if anything ever happened to him then law enforcement needed to look at someone he named. Scherry has given this name to law enforcement and doesn’t believe they have considered this person as a suspect in Michael’s disappearance. Today, Scherry and her son Cedric spend many hours looking in abandoned houses and speaking to people trying to figure out what happened to Michael.


Have you seen Michael Smith? He is described as being 5’10” and weighing around 130 lbs. His family is searching for him and believe he is deceased. They want to locate him so he can receive a proper burial and they can stop searching for him.

For this story, I will refer to Cornelis as Casey, which was his nickname. Casey would adapt to American culture and the English language after arriving in the country. On June 6, 2022, he was last seen at a Wells Fargo ATM in Salt Lake City, Utah.


Casey enjoyed being outdoors and was a frequent skier. His father Robert said Casey was an active and adventurous young man who decided to find adventure in the United States Marine Corps. After he left the Marines with an honorable discharge, Casey secured a job as a ranger working at the Watershed for Salt Lake City Public Utilities. It was the agency in charge of providing drinking water. Robert last saw his son on Saturday, June 4, 2022, and everything seemed normal. He had visited his parents and had dinner with them. Robert said the visit seemed normal.


On June 5, Robert said Casey was playing an online game with one of his younger brothers. He told his brother he had to go because his rice was done. Casey also bought a gun that same day. His father didn’t seem concerned because Casey enjoyed shooting. Besides, he was a Marine Corps veteran trained in firing weapons.


According to Robert, Casey was captured on a security before noon on Monday June 6th. He left his apartment alone in South Salt Lake. He had his backpack on and was likely headed to his job for his online training scheduled for noon.


He was also seen withdrawing $100 from a Wells Fargo ATM in Salt City which was near his job. He never made it to work. After leaving the ATM machine, he has never been seen again. Robert says law enforcement checked Casey’s cell phone records. And according to phone records, his phone was last active in the area of the ATM machine.


On June 8th, Casey's boss became concerned when he didn’t show up for work. His boss contacted Robert to share his concerns. It definitely wasn’t like Casey to not show up for work. He was reliable and would never not show up for work without a good reason. After launching a massive search, law enforcement found no trace of Casey. He’s been missing for just over a year. His family is desperately trying to find him.


Casey is 6’2” tall, weighs 140 lbs., has blond hair and gray eyes, with a goatee. He typically wears long green Wrangler cargo pants, a T-shirt, military boots or sneakers, and a cap. Anyone with information about Casey’s whereabouts is asked to contact the South Salt Lake Police Department at (801) 940-6179 or contact Valley Emergency Communication’s Center at (801) 840-4000 and reference case number LK2022-18693.


Additionally, the family has set up a website and Facebook page dedicated to finding Casey. The website is titled Casey Missing (https://caseymissing.bokslag-usa.com/). And the FB is titled Cornelis “Casey” Bokslag Missing. There is also a $50,000 reward for anyone who can provide useful information leading to finding Casey.

For this story, I will refer to Cornelis as Casey, which was his nickname. Casey would adapt to American culture and the English language after arriving in the country. On June 6, 2022, he was last seen at a Wells Fargo ATM in Salt Lake City, Utah.


Casey enjoyed being outdoors and was a frequent skier. His father Robert said Casey was an active and adventurous young man who decided to find adventure in the United States Marine Corps. After he left the Marines with an honorable discharge, Casey secured a job as a ranger working at the Watershed for Salt Lake City Public Utilities. It was the agency in charge of providing drinking water. Robert last saw his son on Saturday, June 4, 2022, and everything seemed normal. He had visited his parents and had dinner with them. Robert said the visit seemed normal.


On June 5, Robert said Casey was playing an online game with one of his younger brothers. He told his brother he had to go because his rice was done. Casey also bought a gun that same day. His father didn’t seem concerned because Casey enjoyed shooting. Besides, he was a Marine Corps veteran trained in firing weapons.


According to Robert, Casey was captured on a security before noon on Monday June 6th. He left his apartment alone in South Salt Lake. He had his backpack on and was likely headed to his job for his online training scheduled for noon.


He was also seen withdrawing $100 from a Wells Fargo ATM in Salt City which was near his job. He never made it to work. After leaving the ATM machine, he has never been seen again. Robert says law enforcement checked Casey’s cell phone records. And according to phone records, his phone was last active in the area of the ATM machine.


On June 8th, Casey's boss became concerned when he didn’t show up for work. His boss contacted Robert to share his concerns. It definitely wasn’t like Casey to not show up for work. He was reliable and would never not show up for work without a good reason. After launching a massive search, law enforcement found no trace of Casey. He’s been missing for just over a year. His family is desperately trying to find him.


Casey is 6’2” tall, weighs 140 lbs., has blond hair and gray eyes, with a goatee. He typically wears long green Wrangler cargo pants, a T-shirt, military boots or sneakers, and a cap. Anyone with information about Casey’s whereabouts is asked to contact the South Salt Lake Police Department at (801) 940-6179 or contact Valley Emergency Communication’s Center at (801) 840-4000 and reference case number LK2022-18693.


Additionally, the family has set up a website and Facebook page dedicated to finding Casey. The website is titled Casey Missing (https://caseymissing.bokslag-usa.com/). And the FB is titled Cornelis “Casey” Bokslag Missing. There is also a $50,000 reward for anyone who can provide useful information leading to finding Casey.

Theresa was born in California on October 18th, 1972. Her mother parents were Diane Pulaski and William Morris. Theresa was the middle child of three. She has an older brother named Kenneth and a younger sister named Melissa who recently passed away.


Unfortunately, other than a tiny newspaper article in an Alabama newspaper article there is no information about Theresa. Theresa’s story deserves to receive as much media coverage as anyone else’s. And since her case has been mostly forgotten, it reduces the chances her killer will ever be arrested.


Theresa was the mother of four children who lost their mother when they were young. So, none of them have any memories of spending Mother’s Day with her or even celebrating birthdays, holidays or even sitting around the family dinner table having a nice dinner together. Unfortunately, someone took her life and has denied her children of creating any memories with her.


For Theresa’s story, I spoke to her daughter Danica Hovey. This is the conclusion of a two-part story. If you have any information about this unsolved homicide, please contact the Russell County Sheriff’s department in Phenix City, Alabama at 334-298-6535.

Friends and family who knew Montana described him as a kind and considerate young man. He was athletic and loved going to the gym and listening to music. He had made a lot of friends while in college and had lived in a nice home with roommates just outside the Ball State campus.


On Friday June 18, 2021, Montana hosted a party at his home located at the 1300 block of West Abbott Street in Muncie. The party got loud and police were called to the scene. Montana was told to keep the noise down. Law enforcement left the home without making any arrests or shutting down the party. This wouldn’t be the last time law enforcement would visit. They would return to the residence on June 19, 2021, just after 2 a.m.


Law enforcement had received a call that someone had been shot at the residence. Montana died after being shot in the neck. He was pronounced dead at the scene. A 15-year-old teenager would be taken into custody for being involved in the shooting. However, he has since been released and faced no punishment.


According to Montana’s sister Santeanna, several people at the party had taken photos and recorded video of the carnage. Several witnesses at the party told Santeanna that they saw the 15-year-old teenager shoot Montana to death. She has had conversations with law enforcement and asked why the 15-year-old boy isn’t in custody. She said law enforcement knows the teen shot her brother, but they haven’t charged him with the killing.

Tiffany began heavily using drugs like OxyContin and worked at different waitress jobs. She also began shoplifting at Walmart regularly. In March of 2011, while living in Dalton, Georgia, Tiffany, was arrested and charged for a home invasion. Tiffany received a prison sentence in 2012. By this time, tension had grown so intense between Tiffany and her mother that Lisa had to practice tough love. She told Tiffany she was done with her daughter until she gave up drugs and her criminal activities. Lisa had hoped this would be the wakeup call Tiffany needed to overcome her troubles and become a responsible mother.


After Tiffany’s release, she would meet and begin dating a single father named Ashley “Red” Caudle. The couple began using crystal meth and other drugs. Friends of the couple described the relationship as toxic and troubled. The two fought regularly.


On September 12, 2013, the couple went to a friend’s home to do drugs. After leaving the friend’s home around midnight, the two arrived at a Marietta, Georgia Walmart at 1 a.m. After an hour, loss prevention employees became suspicious of Tiffany and watched her closely on security cameras.
The couple went to pay for some items at 2 a.m. Although Caudle paid for his items, Tiffany had attempted to steal $20 worth of merchandise.


Loss prevention employees approached and attempted to apprehend Tiffany. One of the employees grabbed Tiffany’s bag. She slid her arm out of the bag, kicked off her flip flops and ran away.
The loss prevention employees didn’t attempt to pursue her. Security cameras captured Tiffany running away from the store. She has never been seen again. The entire incident was capture on video and can be seen online. Tiffany has never been seen again.

After Tiffany’s release, she would meet and begin dating a single father named Ashley “Red” Caudle. The couple began using crystal meth and other drugs. Friends of the couple described the relationship as toxic and troubled. The two fought regularly.


On September 12, 2013, the couple went to a friend’s home to do drugs. After leaving the friend’s home around midnight, the two arrived at a Marietta, Georgia Walmart at 1 a.m. After an hour, loss prevention employees became suspicious of Tiffany and watched her closely on security cameras.
The couple went to pay for some items at 2 a.m. Although Caudle paid for his items, Tiffany had attempted to steal $20 worth of merchandise.


Loss prevention employees approached and attempted to apprehend Tiffany. One of the employees grabbed Tiffany’s bag. She slid her arm out of the bag, kicked off her flip flops and ran away.
The loss prevention employees didn’t attempt to pursue her. Security cameras captured Tiffany running away from the store. She has never been seen again. The entire incident was capture on video and can be seen online. Tiffany has never been seen again.

On the June 25, 1983, Erik had plans to stay over with his friend Bill Cook. Erik’s dad planned on picking up the boys the next day and spending the Sunday at a boat show. It was something Erik looked forward to. However, unknown to Erik’s family, he was planning on attending a graduation party on that evening. There would also be alcohol at the party. Erik and Bill would both make it to the party. And the events at this party would lead to Erik’s brutal killing.

However, instead of staying overnight with Bill, Eric would become intoxicated and walking home alone. According to Erik’s sister, Erik didn’t stay with his friend Bill because he decided to spend time with his girlfriend and other people who would be involved in Erik’s death. Erik’s sister said that her brother’s friend abandoned him and left him alone.

Erik had left the party and was inebriated. Sometime before 2 a.m. Erik was seen walking past a gas station. There were also two carloads of teenagers from the party seen near Erik. Early that Sunday morning, Erik’s father went outside to get the newspaper. He would be shocked by what he found. Erik’s lifeless body was in the driveway.

He must have been confused. Why would Erik be dead in the driveway when he was supposed to be with his friend Bill waiting on a ride to the boat show?

According to Jackie Mitchell, everyone in town knew who killed her brother. She said it was no secret. She said that in late 2017, law enforcement issued a request to arrest five people and charge them with killing Erik. The five people named as being responsible for killing Erik are Amber Thomas Macik (Hull), Bill Cook, Tim Martin, Brian Spaulding Sr. and Brent Spaulding. Although law enforcement was prepared to arrest the five, they would receive some devastating news. The prosecutor’s office has since refused to prosecute the alleged killers. This is the conclusion of a 2-part story.

If you have listened to this story and would like to assist law enforcement or Jackie Mitchell, get justice for Erik, please contact the Silent Observer at (269) 343-2100, or the Kalamazoo County Sheriff's Office at (269) 383-8748.

According to media reports, Tyler’s death unfolded on October 21, 2018. Tyler and his cousin went to local gas station for cigarettes late that Sunday night. They climbed into his cousin’s blue Chevy Cruz. After buying cigarettes, Tyler and his cousin returned home from the store. On their way back from the gas station the cousins were followed to Tyler’s John Hamm Road residence by several Black males driving in Silver Kia Optima.


Tyler then exited his cousin’s car and got into the Kia with the men. Afterward, one of the men left the Kia and pointed a gun at Tyler’s cousin and ordered her to get out of the car. After she left her vehicle, the unknown man drove away with her car as the Kia also drove off with Tyler inside.
Moments later, Tyler was shot to death and left alongside the road. The Kia and the Blue Chevy Cruz have both been recovered.


The Kia is owned by a man named Keyairis Hawkins, who is currently incarcerated on unrelated charges. The Chevy Cruz has also been traced to a shooting in Pensacola.


Tyler’s mother thinks it’s possible her son knew one of his killers. She thinks it’s a possibility that he may have tried to sell marijuana to the men but she doesn’t know for sure. Today, all the family has left of Tyler are his memories and a roadside memorial in his honor. Tyler was laid to rest at Hickory Hammock Church Cemetery.


For this story, I spoke to Angie Mantlo, who is Tyler’s mother. She told me the grief she feels is unbearable and the holidays and birthdays are the worst. I had read that Angie visited her son’s grave daily just to speak to him. I asked her if that was true. She said it was true and that she also drives past the site of Tyler’s homicide regularly. The Santa Rosa Sheriff’s Office is hopeful they are able to uncover DNA that could lead to Tyler’s killer.


Angie Mantlo has said she hope that someone will step up and do what’s right for Tyler and break their code of silence. She knows there are several people out there who have the answers the family need to see justice for Tyler. If you have any information about this case, please contact the Santa Rosa County Crime Stoppers number at 850-437-STOP.

On October 31, 1989, Sylvia Salinas was working at her grocery store located at the corner of 31st Street and Avenue Q in Galveston. Her parents, had stopped by the store for a visit. When they left the store, their daughter was alive. This would be the last time they would ever see their daughter alive.


At 1:22 pm, a private alarm was triggered and sent Galveston Police officers to the Salinas grocery store. Four minutes later, law enforcement arrived to a horrific scene. Sylvia Salinas was found dead behind the counter. She was slumped over in a pool of blood. Her killer had stabbed her to death with her own butcher knife. The knife was sitting next to her on the counter. For protection, Sylvia kept a loaded revolver and a machete. Neither was touched. Law enforcement believe she must have been taken by surprise. This would explain why she wasn’t able to use her revolver or machete. The killer had pried open the register and stolen the cash but left behind the coins. And since the register had blood on it, law enforcement speculated that the killer used the butcher knife to open the register after stabbing Sylvia to death.


Law enforcement has since taken a second look at the case with fresh eyes to see if they possibly overlooked something. Unfortunately, some evidence may have been lost after Hurricane Ike rolled through back in 2008. The only evidence that remains is the knife and an old video tape of the crime scene. For this episode, I spoke to Amanda Upton, who is Sylvia’s great niece. She is trying to get answers for her family and find out who killed her aunt over 30 years ago.


Unfortunately, the case has gone cold and law enforcement hasn’t made any arrests. Were you living in this part of Galveston 30 years ago? Perhaps you shopped at Sylvia’s store? It’s possibly you may have seen something that didn’t seem significant at the time. If you know what happened to Sylvia, please call the Galveston Crime Stoppers at 409-763-8477.

Unfortunately, he would never live to see his dreams come true because he would be found dead in the Grand River in Lansing, Michigan. Law enforcement ruled Brandon’s death as an accident, but his family and closest friends don’t believe this. They believe his death was the result of something more sinister.


Back in late June 2014, Brandon had plans that evening. He was going to meet with his business partner to celebrate another friend’s 21st birthday on a party bus. The young men planned to take the party bus to different bars and have some fun and drinks. According to police reports, after the party bus returned from its round of hitting several local bars in downtime Lansing, Brandon began feeling sick. According to security footage, Brandon was seen walking down the road on June 29th with his business partner following him.


Law enforcement said Brandon stumbled down the end of South Street, fell into an embankment and into the river and drowned. Brandon’s business partner told the police he lost sight of Brandon and assumed he had gotten home okay. He would then return to his friends and continue socializing with them. He never called 911 or any of Brandon’s family to let them know something may have happened to Brandon. After Brandon disappeared, his siblings and friends began searching for Brandon. One of his relative’s found a shoe and hat belonging to Brandon.


During an interview on Dateline, Shirley Mitchener said she has theories about Brandon’s death. One is that he was thrown into the river by the friends he met up with on the party bus. A second theory is that Brandon was pushed into the river. The police theory is that he was intoxicated and fell into the river.


For this story, I spoke to Shirley Mitchener about her relationship with her son and how she continues to grieve for him over eight years later.

He had big dreams. He earned his Associates Degree from Lansing Community College. He had studied Business and started his own clothing line called (M.I.Y.M) Make...

Unfortunately, he would never live to see his dreams come true because he would be found dead in the Grand River in Lansing, Michigan. Law enforcement ruled Brandon’s death as an accident, but his family and closest friends don’t believe this. They believe his death was the result of something more sinister.


Back in late June 2014, Brandon had plans that evening. He was going to meet with his business partner to celebrate another friend’s 21st birthday on a party bus. The young men planned to take the party bus to different bars and have some fun and drinks. According to police reports, after the party bus returned from its round of hitting several local bars in downtime Lansing, Brandon began feeling sick. According to security footage, Brandon was seen walking down the road on June 29th with his business partner following him.


Law enforcement said Brandon stumbled down the end of South Street, fell into an embankment and into the river and drowned. Brandon’s business partner told the police he lost sight of Brandon and assumed he had gotten home okay. He would then return to his friends and continue socializing with them. He never called 911 or any of Brandon’s family to let them know something may have happened to Brandon. After Brandon disappeared, his siblings and friends began searching for Brandon. One of his relative’s found a shoe and hat belonging to Brandon.


During an interview on Dateline, Shirley Mitchener said she has theories about Brandon’s death. One is that he was thrown into the river by the friends he met up with on the party bus. A second theory is that Brandon was pushed into the river. The police theory is that he was intoxicated and fell into the river.


For this story, I spoke to Shirley Mitchener about her relationship with her son and how she continues to grieve for him over eight years later.

Today, no one knows why Sheriff Corbin claimed to have conversed with Amanda and then later admitted to having no idea where she was. Local media sources like the Sandusky Register have tried questioning Corbin for answers. But he has been tight-lipped about the case. Corbin would eventually turn the case over to the Ohio BCI.


Amanda’s mother Caroline has refused to give up on finding her daughter. She has spoken to the media and anyone who is willing to listen to her share the details about Amanda’s disappearance. Caroline has also publicly said that Sheriff Corbin won’t provide her with any answers about her daughter.


Before Amanda disappeared, she had sent troubling texts to her sister Shannon that she feared her abusive boyfriend and was in fear of being killed. The Bureau of Criminal Investigation has since taken over Amanda’s case. Since Amanda’s disappearance, she has become a grandmother. Her son Joshua now had 2 children. He has said he misses his mother and that she doesn’t even know she’s a grandmother.


The family has since learned that an anonymous caller had contacted law enforcement and claimed that Amanda’s boyfriend was involved in her disappearance. For now, Fred Reer has not been charged with having anything to do with Amanda Dean’s disappearance. For this story, I spoke to Caroline Tokar and Shannon Dean about the disappearance of Amanda Dean. This is the first part of a two-part story. Be sure to listen to the conclusion next week.

Tyler had worked at a Circle K on Christmas Eve into Christmas Day of 2020. He would then go home and then return to work on Christmas Day. His mother and brother were waiting at their apartment for Tyler to arrive home so they could open presents. Unfortunately, Tyler wouldn’t arrive home. His mother began frantically calling around trying to find her son.


She remembered asking him if he had to go to work on Christmas. He told his mother he had already agreed to work and needed to go. Before leaving on Christmas Eve, he gave his mother a hug and said he’d be back later.


When he didn’t return home, Monique went out looking for her son. She followed the path he would take home only to find Phoenix Police Officers near her son’s job. They had cordoned off a street and put up crime scene tape. Monique saw a dead body covered with a blue blanket. Her gut instinct told her this was probably her son.


Monique would find out that someone had murdered her son as he walked home from work. Someone had shot him to death. The killer was a homeless man named Timothy Bell. He had shot Tyler to death with a 9mm Glock. His motive? He was angry about being homeless and decided he was taking it out on someone that evening. Tyler just happened to walk past Bell and was killed for doing so.


Today, Tyler Cardiel’s family is still waiting for justice. He hasn’t gone on trial and Monique Cardiel is fearful that her son’s killer won’t face justice. And now on with the story of Tyler Cardiel as told by him mother Monique Cardiel.


If you have any information about this case or Timothy Bell that you would like to share with law enforcement, you can contact Silent Witness at either 480-WITNESS (948-6377) or 1-800-343-TIPS (8477)

Liliam’s problems began after her parents divorced. After her mother returned to Guatemala, Lilliam remained in Jerome with her father and younger siblings. The divorce compounded with learning that she was adopted created much turmoil in Lilliam’s life. According to her sister Yuliana, Lilliam turned to drugs. Lilliam was living with her aunt in Jerome, working for a local potato plant. She would then move out of her aunt’s house and into the home of a coworker.


Lilliam would become close friends with a relative of Yuliana’s husband. The two worked together at the potato plant. Lilliam was known to love posting to social media and she always kept in contact with her family. Everything would come to a head in March of 2020 when Lilliam would vanish. Her social media posts would go silent and she would stop all contact with her friends and family. Yuliana knew this wasn’t like her sister. There was no way she would just walk away from her life. She contacted the Jerome Police Department and reported her sister missing.


Yuliana learned that her sister had a stalker who was obsessed with her. He was in the country illegally and constantly asked Lilliam to be his girlfriend. She wasn’t interested. And it’s believed this rejection may have led to what would eventually happen to her. An anonymous woman would reach out to Yuliana and tell her what she believed happened to Lilliam. According to the informant, the undocumented man who stalked her and his brother murdered and dismembered Lilliam and buried her body parts throughout Jerome.


Yuliana has kept in touch with the detective handling her sister’s case. For this week's episode, her sister Yuliana Gomez shared the details of her sister's disappearance.


Lilliam Gomez has been missing for nearly 3 years and is presumed dead. Her family and friends have continued to find out what happened to Lilliam.The family is hoping that law enforcement can get the truth out of the two brothers who allegedly have knowledge about what happened to Lilliam who is described at 5’2 and weighing around 120 pounds. She has black hair and brown eyes. Do you know what happened to Lilliam Gomez? If you have any information about this case, please contact the Jerome County Sheriff's Office, at 208-324-8845.

She would later learn that she was adopted and harbor anger towards her parents for not disclosing this to her until she was older. She would eventually seek out her biological parents. Her...

Liliam’s problems began after her parents divorced. After her mother returned to Guatemala, Lilliam remained in Jerome with her father and younger siblings. The divorce compounded with learning that she was adopted created much turmoil in Lilliam’s life. According to her sister Yuliana, Lilliam turned to drugs. Lilliam was living with her aunt in Jerome, working for a local potato plant. She would then move out of her aunt’s house and into the home of a coworker.


Lilliam would become close friends with a relative of Yuliana’s husband. The two worked together at the potato plant. Lilliam was known to love posting to social media and she always kept in contact with her family. Everything would come to a head in March of 2020 when Lilliam would vanish. Her social media posts would go silent and she would stop all contact with her friends and family. Yuliana knew this wasn’t like her sister. There was no way she would just walk away from her life. She contacted the Jerome Police Department and reported her sister missing.


Yuliana learned that her sister had a stalker who was obsessed with her. He was in the country illegally and constantly asked Lilliam to be his girlfriend. She wasn’t interested. And it’s believed this rejection may have led to what would eventually happen to her. An anonymous woman would reach out to Yuliana and tell her what she believed happened to Lilliam. According to the informant, the undocumented man who stalked her and his brother murdered and dismembered Lilliam and buried her body parts throughout Jerome.


Yuliana has kept in touch with the detective handling her sister’s case. For this week's episode, her sister Yuliana Gomez shared the details of her sister's disappearance.


Lilliam Gomez has been missing for nearly 3 years and is presumed dead. Her family and friends have continued to find out what happened to Lilliam.The family is hoping that law enforcement can get the truth out of the two brothers who allegedly have knowledge about what happened to Lilliam who is described at 5’2 and weighing around 120 pounds. She has black hair and brown eyes. Do you know what happened to Lilliam Gomez? If you have any information about this case, please contact the Jerome County Sheriff's Office, at 208-324-8845.

Ryan had rented a car and drove from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. While driving back, the rental car broke down in Death Valley. Afterward he began walking. Fortunately, he was spotted by California Highway Patrol and driven to a gas station in Baker, California. Ryan waited at the gas station for a friend to pick him up. But once the friend arrived to pick up Ryan, he was gone.


On September 21, 2013 two men were walking in the desert west of Baker, California when they found human remains. They called 911. Ryan’s death was listed as undetermined "due to advanced decomposition." It appeared that animals had removed several bones from the body. The body weighed 50 pounds and was nearly skeletonized. There were also no organs. The missing organs have drawn all kinds of theories from social media. One of these include black market organ harvesting. It’s also possible the organs were removed by animals. Iris Flowers has said she believes her son was a victim of illegal organ trafficking and that’s her believe until someone proves her wrong. Since her son’s death, Iris has tried to find out what happened to her son.

The next day, an unidentified body was found in Muncie, Indiana's wastewater treatment center. The body was pulled from waste water and landed on a conveyor belt where waste is filtered. An employee at the facility found the body after it had fallen off the conveyor and landed on the concrete floor. His body would have been ground up had it not fallen off the conveyor belt. Michael's family heard about the unidentified body but didn't know who it belonged to.


The family learned that Muncie Police identified the corpse in the treatment center as Michael Coates. It's believed someone killed him and then placed his body into the sewer. Since Michael didn't have a car, it's unknown if he walked away from his home or if someone drove him somewhere. Teresa Dodd, who is one of Michael's sister's said her brother was a caring man who would do anything for his loved ones. Michael had a son who no longer has a father.


Unfortunately, Michael's family remains without answers three years after his death. Autopsy results indicate that his cause of death is unknown. For this episode, Teresa Dodd discusses the death of her brother and how he was discarded like trash.


The Muncie Police Department is asking the public for assistance in finding out what happened to Michael Coates. The family and law enforcement realize there are people out there who know who killed Michael. They understand people may be apprehensive about providing tips. Citizens with information about this case can report their tips anonymously. For this story, I spoke to Teresa Dodd who is seeking answers about her brother’s homicide.


A $5,000 reward is being offered by the family for any information that can help solve this case. What happened to Michael? If you know anything about this case, please contact Crime Stoppers at (765)286-4050 or you can reach out to the Muncie Police Department at (765)747-4867.

At 1 a.m. he left work and found her lifeless body. Naturally, Doug was the primary suspect since he was Deborah’s significant other. However, law enforcement cleared him because he was at work the entire evening and never left. Her case was basically forgotten for several years until a prolific killer named Henry Lee Lucas confessed to killing Deborah. This story was profiled on the Netflix series titled The Confession Killer.


Today, the case remains as cold as the heart of the person who killed Deborah. This would change when an investigative journalist named George Jared and his partner Jennifer Bucholtz, a former Army counter intelligence officer took an interest in the case. The crimefighting duo traveled to Lubbock, Texas to find out who killed Deborah Sue Williamson. Their investigation was more thorough than law enforcement’s.

She was stabbed 17 times in her carport. She would die just a few feet away from her front door....

At 1 a.m. he left work and found her lifeless body. Naturally, Doug was the primary suspect since he was Deborah’s significant other. However, law enforcement cleared him because he was at work the entire evening and never left. Her case was basically forgotten for several years until a prolific killer named Henry Lee Lucas confessed to killing Deborah. This story was profiled on the Netflix series titled The Confession Killer.


Today, the case remains as cold as the heart of the person who killed Deborah. This would change when an investigative journalist named George Jared and his partner Jennifer Bucholtz, a former Army counter intelligence officer took an interest in the case. The crimefighting duo traveled to Lubbock, Texas to find out who killed Deborah Sue Williamson. Their investigation was more thorough than law enforcement’s.

Unfortunately, Marianne’s life would come to a horrific death on December 9, 2007. Marianne and her husband Don lived in Nort Richland Hills Texas, The couple had settled in for a peaceful evening and were watching an NFL game. But a knock at the door at 8 p.m. would shatter their evening and lives forever. The couple was surprised when they heard the knock because they weren’t expecting any visitors.


Marianne opened the door and was fatally shot at least three times. Her husband, Don frantically called 911 "My wife has just been shot," he said. "Somebody rang the doorbell and then shot her. I need some help quick."


A neighbor had contacted law enforcement and said she was most likely the intended victim. She was going through an acrimonious divorce with Dennis Taylor, her soon to be ex-husband. She believed Taylor had hired an employee to kill her. But she said the killer went to the wrong address. Both women shared the same address number and lived on a parallel cul-de-sac a block away from each other.


Law enforcement identified Dennis Taylor, Vincent Lane and Willie Boley as persons of interest and have been able to develop a DNA profile. For now, it hasn't been matched to a donor. For the story of Marianne Wilkinson, I spoke to Marianne’s son Michael and Michael’s wife Terri. I have broken this story up into two episodes. For this week’s story, I spoke to Terri Wilkinson, Mariann’e daughter in law. Next week’s episode will feature my interview with Marianne’s son Mike Wilkinson.

Before Tracy McClelland disappeared, her family knew something had happened to her because she didn’t show up to visit her sister Lisa Whidden after she had just given birth to her son. Tracy wouldn’t have missed the birth of her nephew.


Law enforcement has said they think Tracy vanished around Valentine’s Day. Tracy’s sister Lisa had said Tracy had gone shopping to buy Valentine’s Day gifts and never returned home. Tracy had two daughters and a son who were young when their mother was killed.
According to family, Tracy had a good childhood. She came from a loving family. Tracy’s sister Lisa compared their environment to the television sitcom Leave it to Beaver. She said her parents were divorced, but they remained on good terms.


Tracy’s life seemed to be on track for success until her older brother Larry committed suicide on August 28, 1996 when Larry had called Tracy from a mental health facility. He had been previously diagnosed with schizophrenia. Apparently, Larry asked Tracy to come get him. Larry then committed suicide by hanging himself in his room.


According to Tampa police Major George McNamara he said Tracy had two lives. "When she wasn't on drugs, she was a sweet, loving person who was dedicated to her family. but cocaine took over her life and destroyed her."


After Valentine’s Day of 2007 had passed, Janice Garvin had become extremely worried. Where was her daughter Tracy? Everyone in Tracy’s family had become worried after she had stopped contacting the family. No one knew what had happened to her. Although she had been known to disappear in the past, something was different this time.


Janice Garvin called the authorities to report her missing daughter. Law enforcement then began searching for her. Tracy’s body was recovered on March 6, 2007 near a Tampa cleaning company. Based on the smell of death, employees assumed someone had dumped an animal carcass in the vicinity. Buzzards had also descended upon the area. Eventually, an employee climbed into a bobcat and began scooping at the dirt where the smell came from. He uncovered a body.


The woman was in her 20s or 30s, had dark hair and breast implants. She was wearing a blue skirt and had nice teeth and toenails. It was believed she was a deceased prostitute or drug addict. The victim was confirmed as Tracy McClelland of Tampa. Law enforcement has stated Tracy died from upper body trauma. But no additional details have been provided.
For now, there is no motive and it’s unknown where Tracy was killed.
The family has waited over 15 years for answers. They realize someone out there knows the truth.


It’s been 15 years since Tracy was killed and discarded like trash. For this episode, I spoke to Malia Correa whose uncle had once dated Tracy. The former couple had two daughters who are Malia’s cousins. She has told me that she loved Tracy dearly and she wants justice for her two cousins whom she considers her sisters. The entire family needs justice for this woman who was so loved.

They found human remains sticking out of the dirt in the back of the parking lot. Someone had been buried in a shallow grave. Tampa police sent their...

Before Tracy McClelland disappeared, her family knew something had happened to her because she didn’t show up to visit her sister Lisa Whidden after she had just given birth to her son. Tracy wouldn’t have missed the birth of her nephew.


Law enforcement has said they think Tracy vanished around Valentine’s Day. Tracy’s sister Lisa had said Tracy had gone shopping to buy Valentine’s Day gifts and never returned home. Tracy had two daughters and a son who were young when their mother was killed.
According to family, Tracy had a good childhood. She came from a loving family. Tracy’s sister Lisa compared their environment to the television sitcom Leave it to Beaver. She said her parents were divorced, but they remained on good terms.


Tracy’s life seemed to be on track for success until her older brother Larry committed suicide on August 28, 1996 when Larry had called Tracy from a mental health facility. He had been previously diagnosed with schizophrenia. Apparently, Larry asked Tracy to come get him. Larry then committed suicide by hanging himself in his room.


According to Tampa police Major George McNamara he said Tracy had two lives. "When she wasn't on drugs, she was a sweet, loving person who was dedicated to her family. but cocaine took over her life and destroyed her."


After Valentine’s Day of 2007 had passed, Janice Garvin had become extremely worried. Where was her daughter Tracy? Everyone in Tracy’s family had become worried after she had stopped contacting the family. No one knew what had happened to her. Although she had been known to disappear in the past, something was different this time.


Janice Garvin called the authorities to report her missing daughter. Law enforcement then began searching for her. Tracy’s body was recovered on March 6, 2007 near a Tampa cleaning company. Based on the smell of death, employees assumed someone had dumped an animal carcass in the vicinity. Buzzards had also descended upon the area. Eventually, an employee climbed into a bobcat and began scooping at the dirt where the smell came from. He uncovered a body.


The woman was in her 20s or 30s, had dark hair and breast implants. She was wearing a blue skirt and had nice teeth and toenails. It was believed she was a deceased prostitute or drug addict. The victim was confirmed as Tracy McClelland of Tampa. Law enforcement has stated Tracy died from upper body trauma. But no additional details have been provided.
For now, there is no motive and it’s unknown where Tracy was killed.

Unfortunately, Nicole Graham wouldn’t be the only grieving parent. Not long after Asia's December 31, 2020 death, her closest friend and fellow soldier Pvt. Marriah Pouncy of Chinle, Ariz. would take her own life months later on June 21, 2021. She would also die at Fort Bliss as did Asia. Mariah was a proud member of the. Navajo Nation.


Asia Graham’s life began to unravel after only being at Fort Bliss, Texas for a month. It took two months for Asia to get enough courage to report that she was raped while unconscious on December 31, 2019. Her attacker was fellow soldier PFC Christian Alvarado. Asia reported the rape in February 2020. However, her superiors didn’t file the complaint until June.


One year later, she was found dead in her barracks where she overdosed while battling depression from the assault, her mother said. When I asked Nicole about details surrounding Asia’s death, she told me that Asia and two of her friends received a Percoset from an unidentified person. According to Nicole, two of the pills were fine, but unknown to Nicole, her Percoset was laced with Fentanyl which killed her. Nicole believes the person who gave her daughter the Percoset should be held responsible for killing her daughter.


Soldier Christian Alvarado was convicted of raping Pfc. Asia Graham Alvarado. He received a sentence of 18 years and three months.

She was last seen leaving with three boys named Danny Wozab, Michael Cruz and Troy LeClear. According to Wozab, Carrie climbed on his handle bars. They boys then escorted her home on their bicycles. The boys said that after leaving Kerry, she walked home and that was the last time they ever saw her again.


For this week's episode, I spoke to attorney Michelle Patterson Ludwig, who is Kerry's younger sister and Detective Bob Taft with the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
He is the current detective assigned to finding out who killed Kerry Patterson over 40 years ago.


The family had only moved into their new home two weeks before Kerry ultimately disappeared on June 26th, 1980. The family was expecting their furniture to be dropped off. Chrystal Patterson told her daughters to stay home and wait for the furniture as she had to work. Kerry ignored her mother's order and left her younger sister Michelle to wait for the furniture alone. After Kerry left to meet up with friends at a local ice cream shop, she never returned home.


Because Kerry wasn't considered a crime victim, law enforcement didn't question construction workers or the furniture delivery workers. After speaking to Michelle and Detective Taft, I learned that law enforcement never visited the ice cream shop to confirm that Kerry and the three boys were ever there. For six months, the family was left wondering what happened to Kerry.


They would find out months later. On December 27th, 1980, an oil worker found Kerry's skeletal remains. If you have any information about this unsolved case, please contact Detective Bob Taft of the Orange County Sheriff's Department at (714) 713 - 1342.

According to Heather Baker, her son, private second class Caleb grant Smither from Texas. He had a fascination for the military. It's what led him to joining the army and going through jump school at Fort Benning, Georgia. he then joined the 82nd airborne out of Fort Bragg, North Carolina, upon graduating from jump school.


Caleb was known as Smitty by his friends and served with the E company 37th brigade engineer battalion second brigade combat team after spending seven weeks and four days at Fort Bragg. Caleb was found dead in his barracks room on January 21st, 2020. He was only 19-years-old. He spent his final moments alone and in agony from a head wound.


Caleb died of bacterial meningitis. This was after he hit his head on a radiator earlier in January, 2020. He was working on a military vehicle when the accident occurred. Heather Baker, and her attorney blamed Caleb's death on medical malpractice at the Womack army medical center and his fellow soldiers who were supposed to look after Caleb. One soldier claimed to have checked on Caleb on January the 19th. And he said Caleb was fine. He later admitted that he had lied and never checked on Caleb.


Caleb texted regularly until January the 15th when his phone went silent. Heather believes her son died on the 15th, which is why all phone activity ceased. Another soldier smelled Caleb's decaying body, but never checked his room to investigate.


What I find so troubling about Caleb's death is the meningitis ruling. If you do any research on meningitis or if you've had it, you realize that it is contagious. If Caleb truly died from it, then how come no one else contracted it? According to Heather, there was no quarantine and no other soldiers were tested for it. If the military cared so much for its troops, then why wouldn't anyone else be tested?

On May 18, 2020, at 10 am, local police officers were dispatched to the 2100 block of Fuller Lane in Harker Heights Texas where Pfc. Brandon Scott Rosecrans was found dead. Moments later, firefighters and police were sent to a vehicle fire in Evergreen Estates, near the 1500 block of FM 2410 and Cedar Knob Road. The burning vehicle was Brandon Rosecrans's 2016 Orange Jeep Renegade.


When I originally posted Brandon’s story in episode 40, there were no arrests made in Brandon’s death. Since my original interview with Brandon’s father, there have been developments in this case. A couple who befriended Brandon have been identified as his killers. The couple has been identified as Brandon Olivera and Estrellita “Star” Falcon.


According to law enforcement, Olivares changed his story several times. Estrellita “Star” Falcon was sentenced to 19 months for unauthorized use of a vehicle. She has not been charged with killing Brandon Rosecrans. Brandon Oliveras, who shot Rosecrans to death is scheduled for trial sometime in December 2022.

It's believed she left the bowling alley sometime between 12:30 AM and 1:00 AM on the morning of December 10th, 1997. After leaving the bowling alley, she planned on driving to her boyfriend's house, which was only two miles away. Before leaving the bowling alley, she called her boyfriend to let him know that she was on her way. She never made it to his house. It wasn't until 10:00 AM that her friends and coworkers became concerned. She was a responsible young woman and would not miss work or fail to contact her friends. Eventually law enforcement became involved after Alana was reported missing. Her body was found on January 11, 1998.


Alana's body was discovered during the search for a deceased police officer named Michael Parton, who had fallen into the Ohio river and drowned. Alana's death was ruled a homicide. Her body was fully clothed and she wasn't raped or robbed today. The motive remains a mystery.


For this story, I spoke to a high school teacher named Randy Hubbard, who works with students at Mason high school in Mason. The class is called cold case MHS. The students study different local cold cases and speak with law enforcement and do research on specific cold cases. Randy has spoken to retired law enforcement officers who have worked on Alana's case. He has also spoken to her brother about the case.

After graduating from Lakota high school in 1992, she attended the University of Cincinnati to study accounting. She attended classes while working. On December 9th, 1997, she met...

It's believed she left the bowling alley sometime between 12:30 AM and 1:00 AM on the morning of December 10th, 1997. After leaving the bowling alley, she planned on driving to her boyfriend's house, which was only two miles away. Before leaving the bowling alley, she called her boyfriend to let him know that she was on her way. She never made it to his house. It wasn't until 10:00 AM that her friends and coworkers became concerned. She was a responsible young woman and would not miss work or fail to contact her friends. Eventually law enforcement became involved after Alana was reported missing. Her body was found on January 11, 1998.


Alana's body was discovered during the search for a deceased police officer named Michael Parton, who had fallen into the Ohio river and drowned. Alana's death was ruled a homicide. Her body was fully clothed and she wasn't raped or robbed today. The motive remains a mystery.


For this story, I spoke to a high school teacher named Randy Hubbard, who works with students at Mason high school in Mason. The class is called cold case MHS. The students study different local cold cases and speak with law enforcement and do research on specific cold cases. Randy has spoken to retired law enforcement officers who have worked on Alana's case. He has also spoken to her brother about the case.


If you have any information about this case, please contact the Butler county Sheriff's department at (513) 785 - 1236 or the Fairfield police department at (513) 829 - 8201. And if you would like more information about this case, please visit the Mason High School cold case class website at: https://coldcase2.wixsite.com/mhscoldcase or their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/randy.hubbard.73594.

Unfortunately, she has been hitting countless roadblocks in her quest for justice. She has heard several different stories about what happened to her father but cannot confirm any of them. Jerry was a heavy drinker who didn’t have an automobile. He was known to hitchhike everywhere, which was common during the 80s. One story is that Jerry was hitchhiking to visit his daughter Jessica.


Another story is that he was hitchhiking to buy alcohol. A third story was that while hitchhiking, Jerry came across and elderly man with a flat tire. After Jerry began helping the stranger change his tire, a car swerved by and nearly struck the elderly man. Jerry became angry with the two men in the car. Afterward, Jerry engaged in a heated argument with the two men which led to a fight. The elderly man then went to a gas station and called law enforcement. However, when law enforcement returned to the scene, Jerry and the two men were gone.


Jessica has spoken to law enforcement and learned there are no crime scene photos or witness statements. She has been told the documentation she requested has either been misplaced or lost.


If you know anything about this case, you can report your tips to the Crawford County Sheriff’s Department at (573) 775 – 4911. And if you would like additional information about this case, you visit the Who Killed Jerald Hall Facebook page. Please consider following this page for updates.

Nov. 4, 2010, wasn’t an unusual day for Ronnie. He had visited his uncle. But when it was time for Ronnie to leave, he asked a relative for a ride. The relative dropped Ronnie off at local Hardee’s fast-food restaurant. He hasn’t been seen since. There is a lot of information about this case on social media. However, I have been told much of it is incorrect. For instance, it’s been said that Ronnie walked off into some woods near his uncle’s house and killed himself.


His mother, Wanda, is distraught over her missing son. She feels like law enforcement has taken no interest in finding her son. She also thinks law enforcement hasn’t taken this case seriously because of Ronnie’s previous issues with drugs and his run-ins with the law for minor offenses.


Ronnie had told some friends that he was planning on visiting his wife in Newark, Arkansas, so he could reconcile with her. He never made it to her house. She told law enforcement she didn’t see him that day. Independence County investigators have cleared Ronnie’s wife and others. The area surrounding Ronnie’s uncle has been searched with no success. There are definitely many rumors about this case.


What happened to Ronnie nearly 12 years ago? He had left his uncle’s home and gotten a ride to a local fast-food restaurant. From there, he tried to get a ride to visit his wife, who he had recently separated from. Based on new tips, a witness saw Ronnie at a party on the evening he vanished. So it would appear that Ronnie attended this party instead of going to his wife’s home.


The family is asking for your help. You can report any tips to the Independence Sheriff’s Department at (870) 793 - 8838 or you can call the Help the Missing tip line at (866) 660–4025. And if you would like additional information about this case, you visit the Who Killed Ronnie Russell Facebook page. I will also share this information in the episode story notes.

Unfortunately, May 4, 2007 would be the worst day of Patricia’s life. She had a tight relationship with her beloved daughter Brittany who was working two jobs when she was murdered. During high school, she played trumpet in her high school's marching band, and graduated with honors. She said Brittany was the perfect daughter. She didn’t drink, do drugs, have any legal issues or cause her any trouble.


Patricia’s life was destroyed when she learned that her daughter was brutally murdered. Brittany had begun dating Jeff Stogner, the son of a coworker at a local business that was similar to a mini-Walmart. After getting off work, Brittany left work and stayed overnight with her boyfriend.


The morning of May 4, 2007 began with Brittany’s boyfriend Jeff and his stepfather traveling to Dallas to pick up a relative and take her to the airport. Since Brittany had just gotten off work hours earlier, Jeff let Brittany sleep in.


Hours later, Jeff returned home to a horrific scene. He found his girlfriend Brittany’s nude dead body. Someone had entered the home, sexually assaulted and then murdered Brittany. Law enforcement believed Brittany was killed sometime between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. According to her mother Patricia, the killer left with the murder weapon and Brittany’s clothing. During the investigation, law enforcement learned that Jeff’s sister dated a man named Chad Carr who had previously been convicted of various crimes which included burglary of a building, sexual assault and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He is considered a person of interest in Brittany’s death.


Patricia Tice has said she never thought her daughter’s case would go this long without being solved. The only positive note in this case is that Wood County Sheriff Kelly Cole has taken a serious interest in solving the case. According to Brittany’s family, several other sheriff’s have come and gone. She said previous ones wouldn’t return calls or express much interest in the case.


Sheriff Cole has said it’s possible that two people may be involved in this horrific crime. He isn’t ruling anyone out so everyone remains a suspect. Patricia Tice has said that Sheriff Cole has been the only Law enforcement officer the family has trusted.


Today, her killer remains free. Someone out there knows who killed this young lady. Could it be you? Do you know who killed her? If you do, please help this family get justice and contact the Wood County Sheriff’s department at (903) 763 - 2201 or you can leave your tip with Crime Stoppers at (903) 850 - 9060. And if you would like to know more about Brittany’s story, there are two Facebook pages created by the family. They are Brittany Danielle McGlone (1987-2007) and Who killed Brittany McGlone.

Regina had three daughters and a son. Her two oldest daughters, Michelle and Gina Orozco, believe their mother is deceased. Regina's two older daughters have been trying to find out what happened to their mother. They don't believe their mother left on her own because she wasn't financially stable enough to just leave.


Regina left behind her debit card, belongings, and identification when she disappeared. Daughters Gina and Michelle said there is no way their mother went to Alaska without any financial resources. She also didn't know anyone in Alaska.


The family is divided over their missing mother. The family dynamics among the four aren’t good. While the two older siblings are united in finding their mother, they both claim their brother and youngest sister haven't been involved in trying to find their mother.


Unfortunately, if you do research about this case, you won't find any information about this missing woman. There is no media coverage or any other attention being given to this case. That is why it’s so important for listeners to share this story. It needs attention. I am hoping the media will pick up this story and encourage law enforcement to look harder at family for answers.


For this story, I spoke to Gina Orozco and Michelle Orozco who are Regina's two oldest daughters. Both women have told me they will do whatever is necessary to find their missing mother. I began this story by speaking to Michelle Orozco, who is Regina's second born.


Do you know what happened to Regina? If you know what happened to her or if you can provide any information about her whereabouts, please contact South Carolina Crime Stoppers at 1-888-274-6372 or the Spartanburg Sheriff's Department at 864-596-2222.

The young mother was naked, with recent bruises on her upper thighs and arm. Her dark hair was found scattered around her apartment. There was a clump of hair between the toes of one foot, strands wrapped between the fingers of one hand and a "bracelet" of hair around the other.


Detectives from the East Providence Police Department treated the scene like a homicide. They removed several pieces of evidence, including a hair sample from a clump of light-brown hair found in a shoe on top of a table by the front door that looked as if it were ripped from someone’s head.


Other items found in the room included a bath towel with mucus on it, the sheets and comforter for the master bed, several items of infant clothing, hairs and drinking glasses. Police also completed a rape kit. Lori's original autopsy was conducted by a medical examiner who lost his license to practice in RI, for misdiagnosing cases.


The ME who conducted Lori's autopsy closed the case as a "natural" manner of death caused by "hypertrophic cardiomyopathy," which would have one believing there were heart issues. However, there weren’t any issues with Lori’s heart. Lori was also listed as a cocaine user. But a toxicology screen showed no traces of drugs in her system.


In February 2021, Lori's family obtained a copy of her 1993 autopsy report and challenged its findings with the RI Department of Health (RIDOH). In March 2021, the senior ME handling Lori's modern case review, told Lori's family that she did not die of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and, in fact, had no obvious natural or unnatural reason to die. Lori's family was advised that Lori needed to be exhumed and her investigation completely redone to understand her cause and manner of death. The ME refuted the entire 1993 autopsy.


Much of the evidence from Lori's death scene is still available for testing today. Lori's family is having difficulty reopening her case because the state refuses to do so. Lauren Malloy, the daughter of Lori Malloy, is now trying to get Lori's case reopened and investigated as a homicide.


Due to the fact that Lori was naked and DNA evidence exists, sexual assault is possible. However, no tests have been conducted on the biological evidence. If no tests have been performed, how can anyone justify calling this case a natural death? Additionally, there were signs of two people being in the apartment.


Lori Malloy died nearly 30 years ago under mysterious circumstances. She allegedly died from natural causes, however, this is unlikely. What happened to her in 1993? If you know anything about Lori's death, please contact the East Providence RI Police at (401) 435-7600.

Lori's family was advised that Lori needed to be exhumed and her investigation completely redone to understand her cause and manner of death. The ME refuted the entire 1993 autopsy.


Much of the evidence from Lori's death scene is still available for testing today. Lori's family is having difficulty reopening her case because the state refuses to do so. Lauren Malloy, the daughter of Lori Malloy, is now trying to get Lori's case reopened and investigated as a homicide.


Due to the fact that Lori was naked and DNA evidence exists, sexual assault is possible. However, no tests have been conducted on the biological evidence. If no tests have been performed, how can anyone justify calling this case a natural death? Additionally, there were signs of two people being in the apartment.


Lori Malloy died nearly 30 years ago under mysterious circumstances. She allegedly died from natural causes, however, this is unlikely. What happened to her in 1993? If you know anything about Lori's death, please contact the East Providence RI Police at (401) 435-7600.

According to Christy, Karen then began walking north. Christy then went back to pick Karen up. When she returned, Karen was gone. Witnesses reported seeing Karen walking along the highway. She was never seen alive again. Her family began searching for her. They found no trace of the missing high school student. Karen's family said she had a job and was looking forward to her high school graduation. This year marks the 33rd anniversary of Karen’s disappearance.


The only clue about Karen’s disappearance involved a man who pulled over after seeing Christy’s car along the highway. The man asked the women if they needed help. Christy told the man they were fine and for him to go away. The man then left. Law enforcement claimed that the man gave inconsistent answers and seemed suspicious. No further action was taken against him. However, a former detective on the case told Karen’s brother that the man went to the hospital hours later for a groin injury. His wife told law enforcement she didn’t give him the injury. According to Jim Campbell, this man is a person of interest and still lives in Ohio. He has also lawyered up and will not speak to the police.


Karen’s family remains frustrated after spending over three decades in search of information about her whereabouts. Law enforcement is unlikely to find out what happened to Karen without the public’s assistance. Jim Campbell, Karen’s brother, said at this point, he doesn’t even care about punishing whoever abducted his sister. He just wants her body returned to the family so they can give her a proper burial and say goodbye.


It’s been 33 years since this beautiful teenager was snatched away from her family in the early morning hours of Clermont County, Ohio. Jim Campbell and his family are pleading for your help. Imagine if Karen was your sister or family member. Wouldn’t you want to know what happened to her? If you have any information about this case, please call the Miami Township Police at 513-248-3721 or Crime Stoppers at 513-352-3040.

Ben Affrunti, the father of two of Trumpy’s children has said Hammer shouldn't ever be released from jail because he is dangerous threat to society. He fears that Hammer will harm his family. Affrunti’s son witnessed Hammer physically assault his mother and point a gun at her.


Daniel Kaiser, a friend of Melissa’s said she confided in him days before she disappeared that she was terrified of Hammer. And she had every right to be fearful because she was going to testify against him in court.


According to court records, both Melissa and Hammer were charged with a felony offense of maintaining a drug trafficking location in October. As a witness to a crime, she also faces a felony charge of possessing THC with the purpose to manufacture, distribute, or deliver it, and a misdemeanor charge of possessing drug paraphernalia. Melissa appeared in court on October 18, 2021 and was released on a signature bail. Hammer was freed after posting bail.


After Melissa vanished, her truck was found abandoned on Bolton Road, near Freeport, Illinois. Green County District Attorney Craig Nolen said he thinks that this is a homicide case. If you do an internet search on Derek Hammer. You will see he is a career criminal who has been arrested many times. Somehow, he has managed to stay out of prison. For now, Hammer hasn’t been publicly named a person of interest in Melissa’s disappearance.


Melissa disappeared from the Shannon Illinois area. This is where Derek Hammer and his mother resided. Search parties have checked wooded areas, swamps, ditches and private property in and around Shannon since she went missing. As of this recording, she’s still missing. Ben Affrunti said all hope of finding his ex alive are gone. “Melissa is gone permanently, and my kids will never have their mother back,” he said. Melissa was last seen on October 26, 2021 at the home of Derek’s mother in Shannon.


For this week’s story, I spoke to Ben Affrunti, who is Melissa’s ex. He is also the father of her two youngest children. Ben and Melissa’s sister Mandy are pushing for answers to Melissa’s whereabouts. Anyone with information regarding about Melissa Trumpy can call the Carroll County Sheriff's Office at 815-244-2635 or the Freeport Police at 815-235-8222.

Aliyah's family disagrees with the ruling and believes her body was staged to look as though it was a suicide after she was killed. An injury to the hyoid bone or a broken neck may occur in a hanging. However, Aliyah's neck was not broken. Also, Aliyah's backpack and slide-on shoes were found on the staircase. If Aliyah walked up the stairs barefoot, why was the bottom of her feet clean?


Aliyah's clothes and belongings were also missing. People who commit suicide sometimes give away their belongings, but Aliyah did not do that. What happened to Aliyah's property? Is it possible that someone else was in Aliyah's apartment when she died? Possibly. Aliyah was also involved in an abusive relationship with another woman. Aliyah's mother told me the police were called to Aliyah's apartment several times for domestic violence. She expressed fear of being harmed by her ex.


For this week's unsolved homicide, I spoke to Denise McClendon, who is Aliyah's mother. She has asked me to help share her daughter's story, hoping someone will hear her story and take action. Did she commit suicide or was she murdered? Her mother has no reason to believe her daughter would commit suicide.


If you know anything about Aliyah's death, please reach out to Houston PD by calling them at (713)-308-3600 or (713)-308-3946. And if you would like to know more about this case, please visit the Justice for Aliyah Facebook page.

He had received a scholarship to play football and dreamed of playing in the NFL. He wouldn’t live long enough to even play college football. On April 25, 2021, the police were called to a home around 3 a.m. near Fredericktown, Missouri. It was the home of a white man who had posted racist material on social media. The homeowner directed a Madison County sheriff's deputy to the attic where he found the body of Derontae Martin who had allegedly shot himself to death in his left temple.


Police and a forensic pathologist had determined that he fatally shot himself. Ericka Lotts, who is Derontae's mother, said authorities concluded that Martin, 19, who was black, died by suicide and repeatedly told her that she was in denial about the nature of her son's death. Ericka claimed police and medical personnel who handled the initial death investigation were blinded by tunnel vision. And it appears she was correct in her assessment. The cause of death was changed from suicide to murder.


So the next question is, what was the motive? So who killed Derontae and why? If you have
any information about this case, please contact the FBI Missouri Office at (314) 589-2500 or the National FBI Office at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324). You can also visit the www.justiceforderontae.com website for additional information about Derontae.

After her divorce in 1976, Betty Jane McClellan moved to western Greene County, a rural area in Pennsylvania with her four children. She had to adjust to being a single parent. Her church and community embraced her. She worked at a local restaurant for nearly twenty years. Patty Friend, whose family owned the restaurant, often referred to Betty as her right hand. Betty worked at the restaurant, in the office, and later managed the restaurant.
Betty's children loved her. She was the ideal mother. She attended all the events her children participated in. Betty devoted herself to her children.


Sadly, her children would lose their mother to a horrific homicide. Jake and Betty Jane McCllellan were at their mobile home on the night of March 22, 2009. Just before 10 p.m., there was a knock at the door. As Jake answered, he saw a white male with shoulder-length brown hair pulled back into a ponytail asking for help with a flat tire. Jacob told him to wait outside. When Jake went to get a jacket, the man barged into his home with a gun and demanded money and guns.


A fight ensued between Jake and the man. During the shooting, Jake was shot twice, once in the cheek, and once in the neck, falling to the ground. Jake heard another gunshot coming from the rear of the mobile home as Betty screamed. Jake panicked and ran outside and hid between two parked cars in the front yard.


As he lies on the ground, he sees a white van slowly approaching his property. Jake saw the shooter run out of the house holding a bag or a pillowcase. The shooter approaches the van driver and they exchange words for about ten seconds before the shooter gets in and the van speeds away. Jake flags down another vehicle to call 911, and when police arrived, they discover Betty dead inside the mobile home. Jake survives after being airlifted to a local hospital. There was also another witness who saw the white van.


For this story, I spoke to Betty's daughter Shelly James about the unsolved murder of her mother Betty Jane McClellan. To report information about Betty Jane McClellan or Noble Wine, please contact Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers at 1-800-4PA-TIPS (8477).

Who would want this young mother dead? She was on her way to success. She had earned her bachelor's and Master's degrees from the Ohio State University while still in her 20s. Based on my research and conversation with her cousin Shauntay Jackson, this is what occurred on Alicia's last day alive.


Alicia had left early from her job, picked up Jeremiah from his babysitter and had gotten home by 5:30 p.m. She had stopped by the store to get some eggs to make meatloaf for dinner. She had placed her son in his high chair and was able to get her dinner started.
Sometime between 530pm and 9pm, someone entered her apartment and stabbed her 30 times. Eugene arrived home at 9pm after finishing his class. He found Alicia's body and called the police. Alicia's two laptops and phone were gone, but her purse and wallet weren't taken.


Law enforcement and Alicia's family have an idea of who killed her but there isn't enough evidence to arrest this person. The family and police are convinced the motive was definitely personal. Law enforcement also believes that Alicia's killer was known to her and was most likely a woman. For this week's story, I spoke to Shauntay Jackson about the unsolved murder of her cousin Alicia.

Who would want this young mother dead? She was on her way to success. She had earned her bachelor's and Master's degrees from the Ohio State University while still in her 20s. Based on my research and conversation with her cousin Shauntay Jackson, this is what occurred on Alicia's last day alive.

She rented a home on the 300 block of Hamilton Avenue. She had a dog, friends and dated a man named David Mays who was an enforcer for the Outlaws motorcycle club. Shannon was a dancer at club called Babes. She was last seen on the evening of December 4, 1997 after finishing her shift. She was waiting on a ride from her boyfriend David Mays. She has never been seen again.


Her family became concerned when she didn’t show up in Wisconsin for Thanksgiving. Her brother Gregg Turner said his sister would have never missed a family event or not called. A couple of weeks later, Shannon’s landlord called her family back in Wisconsin and informed them Shannon hasn’t been seen in weeks. The landlord also told the family Shannon’s dog had been left outside unattended for days.


The family knew something was wrong. Turner’s sister filed a missing persons report. Flyers were posted on light posts around town as detectives launched an investigation. Gregg and his family members left Wisconsin and traveled to Indianapolis to remove Shannon’s belongings and search for any clues leading to finding Shannon.


Since Shannon’s disappearance, her brother Gregg has refused to stop trying to get justice for his sister. He said, “I’m not going to walk away. My sister is not just going to be some freebie, you don’t get to kill her and throw her away like trash.”


For this story, I spoke to Shannon’s brother Gregg Turner who shared the highs and lows of his sister’s case and his frustration with Indy PD to prosecute David Mays and his acquaintance Danny Garland of being involved in Shannon’s disappearance.

All of them were Navy with the exception of maybe one or two, three at the most. [Someone knocked and] he went to the door and was shot and killed.”


Donte had big dreams. Originally from South Carolina, he was stationed at Naval Base Coronado in San Diego. He served aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln since 2018.
For the police, there is not much information to go on.


His parents described him as outgoing, caring, and loved by everyone. Donte was destined to be a very successful man and someone came along and took it,” said his father.

Initially, police classified the case as a murder-suicide. David Hutzler was believed to have shot his son, set their home on fire, and then killed himself. Police reported that the father and son both died from gunshot wounds to their heads, and the boy suffered a second "glancing" gunshot wound on his chin.


Kelli Hutzler, David Hutzler's daughter, refused to believe this. She insisted that her dad could not have committed such a heinous act. I asked Kelli why law enforcement ruled the case a murder suicide. She told me that her dad had no reason to kill himself and her brother. She also revealed that there was no murder weapon at the scene. According to her, the law enforcement theory that it was a murder suicide is incorrect because there was no weapon present. Kelli has taken issue with the West Va. State police for their initial ruling.


For over a year, locals and the public believed David had murdered his son before killing himself. Eventually, law enforcement realized their mistake. The case was then ruled a double homicide. Kelli told me she finds it disturbing that some people still believe the case was murder suicide, even a year after the case was reclassified as a double homicide.
Currently, there is an individual who is walking around unpunished after shooting a 9-year-old cub scout to death. Now on with the story of James and David Hutzler as told by David’s daughter Kelli Hutzler.


Do you know who killed this father and son? Do you have any information about their killer? It is Kelli's mission to find out who killed her dad and brother. Those with information about the Hutzler double homicide are asked to contact the West Virginia State Police at 304-267-0002 or 304-267-0000. You can also call Crime Stoppers at 304-267-4999.

Sometime between the time the men left and Eric’s shooting, at least one other man climbed inside the car with Eric and his friend. While in the parking lot, the passenger turned around and shot Eric who was sitting in the backseat. According to Eric’s mother, there was video footage from the store. She asked someone from the store to describe what he saw on the video. He said the footage showed a man turning around and shooting Eric. The driver, Gregory Smith was also shot. After the shooting, the shooter exited the car and ran away. Eric’s mother told me there was also another person who also exited the vehicle.


Eric died from his injuries but Smith survived. Susie told me Smith witnessed Eric’s killing since he was in the front seat with the shooter. However, no one has been charged with killing Eric.


Do you know who killed Eric? Do you have any information about his killer? He was loved by his family and deserves justice. His daughter will grow up without ever knowing him. His mother will never be able to hug her son or tell him how much she loves him.

While in the parking lot, the passenger turned around and shot Eric who was sitting in the backseat. According to Eric’s mother, there was video footage from the store. She asked someone from the store to describe what he saw on the video. He said the footage showed a man turning around and shooting Eric. The driver, Gregory Smith was also shot. After the shooting, the shooter exited the car and ran away. Eric’s mother told me there was also another person who also exited the vehicle.


Eric died from his injuries but Smith survived. Susie told me Smith witnessed Eric’s killing since he was in the front seat with the shooter. However, no one has been charged with killing Eric.


Do you know who killed Eric? Do you have any information about his killer? He was loved by his family and deserves justice. His daughter will grow up without ever knowing him. His mother will never be able to hug her son or tell him how much she loves him.
If you have any information about Eric McClendon’s homicide, please contact
Crime Stoppers at (615) 742-7463 or Sgt. Hinkle of the Nashville Police Department at (615) 862-7065. You can also visit the Justice for Red Facebook with additional information about Eric McClendon.

She was the last person known to have seen her sister.


August 13, 2019 is the official date of Andrea’s disappearance. After Andrea got locked out of her mother’s house, she walked to her sister Erin’s home. Andrea was staying with her mother at the time. The sisters lived within walking distance. After Andrea arrived at her sister’s home she was agitated about not being able to get into her mother’s house. Andrea then left her sister's home and began to walk home.


Erin watched her sister walk away from her house and that was the last anyone has seen of Andrea. Erin believes it’s highly possible that one of Andrea’s shady friends may know something about her disappearance.


Erin said her sister was reliable, kind, loving and an amazing big sister. Erin and her family have worked with law enforcement and brought in a private eye to help find Andrea. Although Erin wasn’t completely satisfied with the documentary about her sister, she said she still hopes it will bring attention to her sister’s case and reach someone who can provide an answer to what happened to Andrea.


What happened to Andrea Knabel? Did she walk away from her life or did someone harm her? If you know anything about Andrea’s whereabouts, I ask that you reach out to the family’s PI or law enforcement and provide a tip. If you would like to provide a tip, please contact PI Tracy Leonard at (502) 618-9337 or the Louisville Police Department at (502) 574-7120.

David then went back to his friends and thought nothing else about the stranger. David then left the bar before closing and drove home. Shortly after arriving home, he heard a knock on the door. It was the stranger at the bar. He had followed David home. Moments after opening the door, everything went black. The stranger physically assaulted David and raped him.


David was beaten so bad, his attacker assumed he had killed David. He would end up confessing to the mother of his children that he had murdered a gay man. He also stopped at another bar and told patrons he had killed a gay man. Eighteen hours later, the police arrived at David’s apartment. They found his apartment walls and floors covered in blood. The police officers that arrived looked at David’s body in a pool of his own blood. They assumed he was deceased until they saw his foot move.


The man who nearly killed David was eventually arrested and charged with assaulting David. For unknown reasons, he wasn’t charged with a hate crime. David is also a podcaster who has a show called Surviving Abuse where he speaks to survivors of horrific events. To learn more about David and his podcast, visit his website at https://survivingpodcast.com/ or you can find his Surviving Abuse podcast on all major platforms.

Manno is considered a prime suspect in Oehling's disappearance. However, he claims she is alive and had been in touch with her. He claims to know where she is, but refuses to tell police where or cooperate with them. He has a lengthy criminal record which includes convictions for arson, theft, auto theft, statutory sexual assault, reckless endangerment, corruption of minors, and aggravated assault. He is currently behind bars.


In the days following Kaylene's disappearance, Manno sent explicit photographs of Kaylene to both her father and her 17-year-old sister. Manno has since been charged with corruption of minors. In addition, Kaylene wrote on her Facebook account that Manno had committed a robbery. In less than an hour, Kaylene's Facebook account was deactivated. This would be unusual behavior for Kaylene because she was highly active on social media.


For this story, I spoke with Kaylene's father, Jason Oehling, who is retired but has dedicated himself to finding out what happened to his daughter and advocating on behalf of other missing people. Now on with the story of Kaylen Oehling as told by her father Jason.

However, they would learn this wasn't the case because law enforcement wasn't always monitoring him. He would eventually disappear and neither his family nor law enforcement know where he is. For this story, I spoke to Paul Vasquez, who is AJ's uncle. After being frustrated with law enforcement's efforts, Paul has traveled between his New Mexico home and Houston to perform his own investigation into his nephew's disappearance.


Paul found a young woman who witnessed someone chase and shoot AJ to death. She even showed Paul where AJ's deceased body lie after he died. Paul recorded the woman's statement and shared it with authorities. According to Paul, the Houston Police Department have discredited the witness. However, Paul believes her because she had nothing to gain by lying and he felt she risked her life to share this information.


Paul has since interviewed many witnesses and has pieced together the final days of his nephew. He told me he doesn't have a good relationship with Houston PD and they will no longer speak to him. At this point, he has said he just wants justice for his nephew and for police to acknowledge that AJ is not a missing person but indeed deceased.


The family is determined to find out what happened to AJ. They are worried that law enforcement will not give this case attention because he is a young black man with a troubled past. According to AJ's electronic monitoring records, he was at a warehouse on Lumberdale Road in Houston. And it's this warehouse where a witness told Paul Vasquez she witnessed AJ's homicide.

Supposedly, Alicia and her father got into an argument around 5pm. Allegedly, Alicia stormed out of the house and has never been seen again. She is listed as a missing person with state police and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. But everyone who was close to Alicia don't believe she is alive.


For this story I spoke to Chrissie Boyer, who was Alicia's childhood friend. Chrissie is one of Alicia's advocates and is also close friends with Alicia's mother Marcie. I also spoke a Laura Valdez, who has been friends with Marcie since childhood. She knew Alicia from birth and used to take Alicia out for pizza when she was a child.


I also reached out to John Markovich and his wife and asked them to participate in this episode. Neither responded to my request. I also want to state that many people think John Markovich knows more about his daughter's fate than he has ever said publicly. However, I must state that no criminal charges have ever been brought against him and he must be considered innocent of any wrong doing in the eyes of the law.


If you know what happened to Alicia Markovich, please contact Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-472-8477 or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 1-800-843-5678.

Police would come back at a later time to investigate the basement. The autopsy would be inconclusive but ruled that O’Brien had blunt force trauma to his head. And it didn’t seem likely it came from a fall.


“This is a classic sign of somebody being assaulted,” said Dr. Timothy Gallagher, an independent forensic pathologist. Gallagher also said, he cannot with one hundred percent certainty rule out that it was an accident, because there are no witnesses to corroborate what exactly happened in his final moments.


But, Gallagher does not believe O’Brien just fell to the floor. “Most likely not,” he told the NBC 10 I-Team. “When a person does fall, their injuries are just one-sided, they do not hit the ground and turn over and hit the ground again and turn over and hit the ground again. They hit the ground once, creating one injury,” said the forensic pathologist.


The police have two persons of interest. A man named Armand Rouleau rented the apartment to O’Brien. The other person of interest is Armand’s then girlfriend, Lynn Hallal.

"The extensive head and brain injuries are not consistent with a simple fall and are consistent with injuries incurred by multiple blunt force trauma. Given the other body injuries, it appears the decedent was assaulted by another person or persons. Abbie Vann, Amy's sister, and Pam Nelson, Amy's mother, say that they are haunted by Amy's death and relive it each day.


Amy's family has conducted their own investigation. They have done the legwork, obtained statements and documented their findings. Although they believe they know who killed Amy, they don't have any evidence to support it. Family members put out a reward in the hopes that someone will provide a tip that will lead to the murderer's arrest.


According to Pam Nelson, Amy's mother, "We have our ideas of what happened based on the information that we've been given and the facts that we have, but not knowing the exact truth to have some sort of closure for our family trying to relive it every day and thinking of all these different possibilities of things that have happen, it's really hard,"

On February 3, 2021, it was a cold and snowy Indiana evening. Alex left home before midnight for unknown reasons. He did not tell anyone where he was going. On February 9th, two thousand twenty one, Alex was found dead. His death was ruled a suicide without any investigation.


Alex's family has taken issue with the ruling. Police told Alex's family that "There was no immediate sign of trauma on the body." However, it wasn't until Alex's body arrived at the funeral home that they discovered he died from a gunshot wound to the head. The family asked the detective why he said there was no trauma to the body when there was a gunshot wound?


It was less than twenty degrees when Alex was found 10 miles from his home. He also had asthma and wasn't dressed for the weather. Such treacherous weather would have made it impossible for him to walk ten miles. He would have died from exposure. Alex's family is certain he met with someone who knows what happened to him.


The family also had a concern about the actual bullet wound. I was informed the entrance wound was larger than the exit. As someone who fired weapons in the military, this isn't feasible. The exit wound is typically larger when leaving the human body.



The family also said Alex wasn't tested for having gunshot residue on his hands and the weapon wasn't checked for fingerprints. Also, Alex didn't own a gun, so where did this gun come from and who owned it?


There were also no shell casings. How could Alex kill himself with a gun and not leave a shell casing behind? And there was no blood splatter at the scene. If Alex killed himself, there would be a casing and blood present at the scene. Most likely Alex was picked up by someone, shot to death and then dumped where he was found. Unfortunately, law enforcement hasn't waivered from the suicide ruling.


Do you know what happened to Alex? Who did he go to meet on the night of his death? How did he end up dead 10 miles near his home? Supposedly, he killed himself. Problem is there were no shells or blood evidence. If have any information regarding Alex VanDalsen, please contact the Tippecanoe County Sheriff sheriff's department at 765-423-9388.

When they returned, Cameron was not where they claimed to have left him. Partygoers claimed Cameron continued to drink at the party and then went to sleep outside. A group of men then went into town leaving Cameron behind.


When the friends arrived back to the property, they didn't see Cameron. They thought he had found different accommodations. Cameron would never be seen alive again. Yet, no one called the police or the family immediately after Cameron vanished. And when he didn't show up for the October 6 wedding, everyone knew Cameron was in trouble.



Cameron never showed up for the Oct. 6 wedding, for which he was supposed to be a groomsman. The ceremony and reception continued as planned, according to Marion. On November 3, 2018, Cameron's body was recovered from Pryor Creek.


On Nov. 3, 2018 – nearly one month after he was allegedly last seen alive – Cameron’s body was recovered from Pryor Creek. Although the circumstances of Cameron's death were suspicious, law enforcement immediately closed the case and claimed Cameron was intoxicated and wandered into the pond where he drowned. The problem was there was no water in his lungs. How does one drown without water being in the lungs?


The official ruling by the medical examiner was an accidental death due to cold water immersion in association with cocaine and alcohol use, according to the report.


Also, there was blood on Cameron's clothing and someone had placed sawdust inside Cameron's clothing. The sawdust was allegedly placed on Cameron to breakdown the body faster. Cameron's finger was cut off and his college ring was taken. And the boots recovered from his body didn't fit him. So where did Cameron's boots go?


The Collin family said law enforcement has refused to re-open the case as either a homicide or undetermined. Family members believe Cameron was the victim of foul play and his body was thrown into the creek.


If you have any tips about Cameron's death, please forward them to his family through their Facebook page titled Cam Collin Updates. They will then forward the tips to law enforcement.

The case remains unsolved three decades later, and has the distinction of being Comanche's only unsolved murder.

The beginning

Mary had been married three times, the first being at the age of 16. There were two more marriages (Tim Allen and Stan Pewitt). The second ended in divorce and the third was heading in the same direction. Money was tight for Mary. She had been injured while working in a nursing home. This limited her employment options.

Prior to her murder, she was working at Harold's Club, the only bar in Comanche, Oklahoma. Mary closed the bar on Friday night, June 3, and brought the receipts to the owner's home. She then went home to 611 N. 10th Street, where her boyfriend Randy was already waiting for her. He told police that they watched TV and he left at 12:45 a.m. that morning. Kira, Mary's daughter, told me he left to play video games with his 8-year-old son.

Someone entered the home after Randy left and stabbed Mary in the neck and upper chest. In an attempt to defend herself, she suffered wounds to her arms and hands. Although she was found in a t-shirt, underwear, and socks, the autopsy showed she had not been sexually assaulted. A first cousin of Mary's, Becky Pentland, says the family refuses to let this case remain a cold case. Rebecca Pentland grew up with her cousin, Mary Morgan.

"She was just a world of fun. I just love her so much...I thought of her as a little sister."

According to Pentland,

"This wasn't like a gunshot or something like that. She was basically butchered and slaughtered. She was stabbed over 35 times. I want them in prison and paying for what they've done." Pentland added, "She was a very loving and giving person and she did not deserve this. She loved her daughters, she loved her family. They need to pay. They need to pay for what they did."

While closing alone, an unknown killer entered the Pizza Hut restaurant, shot Randy to death and stole just under $1,000.00. Randy’s parents were heartbroken and died before ever finding out who killed their son. However, there may be a silver lining in the clouds because there is also DNA on this case. I am hopeful that law enforcement can test it and find a donor.

While closing alone, an unknown killer entered the Pizza Hut restaurant, shot Randy to death and stole just under $1,000.00. Randy’s parents were heartbroken and died before ever finding out who killed their son. However, there may be a silver lining in the clouds because there is also DNA on this case. I am hopeful that law enforcement can test it and find a donor.

Joseph did well and was promoted to foreman within months of starting. On July twentieth, two thousand six, Joseph left home early and said goodbye to his mother Adrienne Miranda. She had no idea it would be the last time she would ever see him alive again.


After arriving home from work that evening, Adrienne was surprised when she came home to an empty house. Usually Joseph would be home. She just assumed he was out with friends.
But her life changed forever when she received a call from Joseph's father Bob at eleven that night. He had horrible news. Joseph was killed in an accident at his job. Adrienne then also received a call from the Maryland State Police notifying her that Joseph had died around 3:30 p.m. that afternoon.


According to The Baltimore Sun, police learned that near the end of Joseph’s shift on July twenty, he was given a task that needed to use the Bobcat to complete. A coworker told him he needed to finish a project before giving the Bobcat to Joseph. The coworker said Joseph tried to remove the driver and jumped onto one of the wheels of the Bobcat, slipped and fell. He was then ran over.


Although there were different witness statements, several accounts claimed Joseph and his coworker got into an argument over the Bobcat. This led to the coworker getting angry and shoving Joseph, who then feel and was then killed by the Bobcat. The coworker would end up giving four different accounts of what happened.


Over 14 years have passed since Joseph's homicide. His mother continues to fight to get the case prosecuted. Please also be sure to listen to the first two parts of this story.

Although no criminal charges were filed against the coworker, Adrienne vowed to fight for her son. Adrienne began her own investigation. Eventually, she learned that a state medical examiner named Dr. Ali had received additional evidence and ruled the case a homicide. He contacted law enforcement and then wrote, “As the death was caused by the action of another person, the manner of death is best re-classified as a homicide.”


However, The State’s Attorney for Baltimore County, Scott Shellenberger, said, “there will be no further inquiry, no arrest, no grand jury, no trial, no criminal charges” in Joseph’s death. This was after he received notice of the case being reclassified as a homicide.


For some reason, Prosecutor Scott Shellenberger has refused to prosecute Godwin.

Blake’s mother Melissa Chappell, is devastated over the loss. Even after ten years, she struggles to get through life without her youngest son. The memories of October 15, 2011 still haunt her. She said Blake was so excited about attending homecoming with his girlfriend. He then planned on staying overnight with a friend.


After the dance, Blake called his mom to check in. He told her he had the best time of his life. Before she hung up the phone, she remembers telling him she would see him the next day. Unfortunately, this would be her last conversation with her beloved son because he vanished and was never seen alive again. He was last seen in the morning hours of October 16, 2011.


Blake had left his friend’s house to visit his girlfriend. He then sneaked in through a window. The girl’s grandmother overheard the young couple talking and then woke up the girlfriend’s mother. They were angry at Blake for sneaking into their home in the middle of the night. Blake left his girlfriend’s house and began walking back to his friend’s house. He would never make it.


Then in December 2011, two months after Blake’s disappearance, Melissa received the call no parent ever wants. Blake’s body was found in a creek in East Newnan. He’d been shot to death and was only wearing his underwear. His killer had taken Blake’s clothing, wallet and cellphone. None of these items have ever turned up. Blake’s phone, wallet, and clothes were never found.


What happened to this young man? He was a 17 year old teenager whose life hadn’t even started. Before he vanished, he had just told his mother he had the best day of his life. Little did he know, he would have the worst day of his life just hours later after speaking to his mother for the final time.

The couple dated off and on between 2014 and 2017. After 3 years, Trish contacted the police and filed a complaint against her abusive boyfriend. He begged her to drop the charges. She gave in and agreed to drop the charges. Unfortunately, by dropping the charges, the police charged Trish with filing a false police report. Trish had returned to Florida to stay with her grandmother Sandy, who had raised her. Trish was then summoned to court in New Hampshire to face charges for the false police report.


Trish returned to New Hampshire and stayed with a friend named Becky who lived near Cardigan Mountain State Park. Trish got restless and wanted to leave. She reconnected with a former classmate named Ashley Smith. Ashley and her husband, Doug Smith, lived in Grafton, New Hampshire. The Smiths offered Trish a place to stay while she waited for her court date. On January 28, 2018, Becky gave Ashley a ride to Citgo gas station to meet with Ashley and Doug. Trish left with the Smiths and returned to their home. Unfortunately, no one would ever see Tricia alive again.


In September 2018, law enforcement found some of Trish’s remains inside a combo washer and dryer unit in Grant’s Pond. Someone had murdered and then dismembered Trish. During the investigation, law enforcement would learn that Ashley and Doug Smith both had lengthy criminal records.


Law enforcement quickly descended on the Smith home, looking for evidence of the grisly crime. Today, Ashley and Doug Smith are both suspected of killing Trish. It’s believed that Trish Haynes died on May 18, 2018. Since Trish’s death, witnesses have come forth to the family and told law enforcement and Trish’s family horror stories of how Trish was tortured and abused while staying with the Smiths.


A friend of the Smiths said Trish was always at the residence, but then one day she vanished. Ashley claimed Trish had run off to another state with an unknown man. If you do research on this case or in the backgrounds of Ashley Smith (formerly Ashley Ruff) and Doug Smith, you will find many details about their criminal past. For this story, I spoke to Trish’s cousin Carey, her great aunt Valorie and Chloe, who knew both Ashley Smith and Trish.

Donna considered Steven a wonderful son. He looked after his parents, took care of their home, yard, and automobiles. He also had two sons he loved more than anything. He worked long hours so he could provide for his young sons.


On May 28, 2018, Steven Augustine left work and walked home. He was attacked near a Kingston bakery. The beating was so brutal, Steven barely survived. Authorities arrested a career criminal with a lengthy record named Charles Miles. The beating left Steven permanently paralyzed and on a ventilator. He live for another 23 months and remained confined to a hospital bed until his death. Donna expected Charles Miles to face serious charges for nearly killing her son. She became angry after learning Miles would only be charged with a misdemeanor and not a felony. He only spent 72 days in the county lockup before authorities released him.


The Augustine family became angry. How could Steven’s assault only be a misdemeanor? They assumed that since Miles already had a lengthy criminal record which warranted serious charges.
Former Ulster County District Attorney Holley Carnright refused to charge Miles with a felony. He claimed Miles didn’t intend to harm Steven. According to Carnright, “The injuries to his face were consistent with a single punch. He also said the fracture was caused by Steven falling down backwards.


I have seen pictures of Steven’s injury. Half of his skull was caved in from a blunt weapon and not a fall. Medical staff removed the left side of Steven’s skull. Donna is now fighting to get justice for her dead son. A local news station interviewed Carnright, and he insisted he couldn’t charge Miles with a felony.


Donna wondered why the authorities weren’t going after Miles for more severe charges. According to Donna, an investigator told her that Charles Miles worked as a trusted police informant for many years. She now believes that’s why Charles Miles hasn’t been charged with additional crimes after Steven died.


Donna is determined to fight for her son. She wants to see Charles Miles get prison time for his part in Steven’s death. Although Steven died nearly two years after the assault, he would still be alive had he not been nearly beaten to death. Steven loved his sons. He should still be alive and spending time with them.


Steven died alone with none of his loved ones to comfort him.


If you have any additional information about this case that could help Donna Augustine get justice, please contact the New York State Crimestoppers @ (866) 313-TIPS. I would also like to make a special request on behalf of the Augustine family. They need an attorney to help them prepare a legal strategy to get justice for Steven. If you are an attorney in New York and can help this family, please email Donna Augustine at Donnaaugu12401@gmail.com.

After her discharge from the Air Force, 22 year old Annamarie Mullin returned to civilian life and began enjoying life. She was a regular at the Caboose bar in Wilton Manors, Florida. She knew everyone and everyone knew her. On November 6, 1982. The young woman noticed a stranger in the bar. He wasn’t a regular and no one knew him. Annamarie sat next to him and engaged in a conversation with him.


He then began buying her drinks. She became intoxicated. At 230 am. Annamarie left the bar with the man who had bought her drinks. He said he would give her a ride home. Annamarie waved to the remaining customers and said goodnight to them. Little did they know, they would never see their young friend alive again. She would be dead within several hours.


A few hours later at 7 am, members of the St. Clements Catholic Church began arriving for mass. What they saw would shock them. A dead woman was found on the front steps of the church. She had been raped, beaten and strangled. It was a horrific and brutal killing. The Wilton Manors Police Department soon arrived on the scene to investigate.


The dead woman was identified as Annamarie Mullin from Ashland Massachusetts. Just a few hours earlier, she had left the Caboose bar and now she was dead. Her case has remained unsolved for nearly four decades.

On the day of September 25, 2000, Christopher was off from school. At 11, his dad felt he was mature enough to be home alone. His father came home around 11am for lunch. He then left an hour later. He would then leave work early and arrive home around 2 pm. When he came home, Christopher wasn’t there to greet him. He then began looking for his son. When he looked in his room, he saw dish racks from the dishwashing machine in Christopher’s room.


He immediately went to the dishwasher. He saw Christopher’s clothing piled up next to the machine. When he opened the machine, he found his son’s body inside the machine. Not only was Christopher deceased, but someone had turned on the machine and ran an entire cleaning cycle.
From this point, the mystery began. After authorities arrived, they immediately accused Christopher’s dad of killing his son.


Allegedly, Christopher was sexually assaulted, tortured, murdered, and then someone ran his body ran through a full cycle in the dishwasher. I would assume this was done to remove evidence. According to Ashley, Christopher’s sister, none of this is true.

For this episode, I interviewed Tiffany Hicks, a grieving mother who just lost her 27 year old daughter Tailor Marie Clark under mysterious circumstances. Tailor was an entrepreneur who had developed her own salve for people with tattoos. She planned on marketing her product through various tattoo shops. The product was called Tailor Made.


On September 17, 2021, Tailor arrived at a Houston tattoo shop called 59 Ink. She planned on speaking to the owner about carrying her tattoo salve. She also wanted to get another tattoo and another one touched up. While at the tattoo shop, Tailor kept in touch throughout the evening with her boyfriend and mother.


Eventually, things got strange. Tailor’s boyfriend received a message referring to him as Daddy while Tiffany received a text from Tailor stating that she was dead. Tiffany assumed it meant her daughter’s phone had died. After all communication between Tailor, her boyfriend and Tiffany ceased. Tiffany and Tailor’s boyfriend believed that someone else was sending messages on Tailor’s phone pretending to be her.


By 2 pm, on the following day, which was Saturday September 18, 2021, Tailor’s step brother and one of his friend’s drove to the tattoo shop. One of the tattoo artists pulled up. The stepbrother and his friend said they were looking for Tailor. The three men entered the tattoo shop and found Tailor’s lifeless body in the backroom lying on a couch.


What happened to Tailor? Why was she found deceased inside a locked tattoo parlor? If you know anything about Tailor’s death or saw something unusual, I am asking you to please contact
the Harris County Sheriff’s Department @ 713-967-5700 or Crime Stoppers @ 713-222-TIPS. Tailor's family will also be putting up a dedication page on Facebook titled Justice for Tailor.

Joann originally said no, but Ali begged and pleaded. She had never walked to her job before and it was only a short distance from her home. Joann finally gave in and gave Ali permission to walk to her job after school. Ali got off the bus that day at 3pm and then began walking to work. She would disappear and never be seen again.


Allie vanished 11 years ago. There have been no tips or any information about her whereabouts. JoAnn told me she still hopes that her beloved daughter is still alive. JoAnn has worked with a PI who received a tip that Allie was a victim of sex trafficking and might be in a trap house in Ohio. JoAnn told me the tip didn’t lead to anything significant.


Do you know what happened to Ali? Her mother is still hoping she can find out what happened to her daughter. Unfortunately, as the days pass, it reduces the odds of Ali ever being found alive. JoAnn said that whenever she hears about an unidentified body being in the area, it concerns her because she knows it could be Ali.

The house was unlocked and their two dogs were inside with no food or water. Deputies found a purse, wallet and cellphone left on the kitchen table. It was as if they had just both vanished. There was a witness who saw the couple climb into an SUV that has never been located.

Rachel and Renee had initially planned to go shopping with Terry, but he had made other plans. Julie wanted to go along with them, but was told she needed permission from her mother. She was able to get permission, but was told she needed to be home by 6:00pm. Renee was excited about attending a Christmas party that evening with Terry and wanted to be home early to get ready.

At 12:00pm, the girls visited the local Army/Navy surplus store to get some jeans Renee had on layaway. They then drove to the shopping center and parked near Sears .

Witnesses would later claim they’d seen the girls inside the mall throughout the afternoon. However, it’s never been confirmed. Keep in mind this was the 70s. Most young girls had long straight hair. And since it was Christmas time, the mall would be full of teenagers out for Christmas break.

Julie was the sister of Renee’s boyfriend, Terry...
Rachel and Renee had initially planned to go shopping with Terry, but he had made other plans. Julie wanted to go along with them, but was told she needed permission from her mother. She was able to get permission, but was told she needed to be home by 6:00pm. Renee was excited about attending a Christmas party that evening with Terry and wanted to be home early to get ready.

At 12:00pm, the girls visited the local Army/Navy surplus store to get some jeans Renee had on layaway. They then drove to the shopping center and parked near Sears .

Witnesses would later claim they’d seen the girls inside the mall throughout the afternoon. However, it’s never been confirmed. Keep in mind this was the 70s. Most young girls had long straight hair. And since it was Christmas time, the mall would be full of teenagers out for Christmas break.

Rachel’s Oldsmobile was found in the parking lot around 6:00pm. It was locked, and there was single present on the backseat floorboard. However, there was no trace of the girls or any indications of a struggle. Nearly five decades later, no one has ever seen the girls again.

For many years she has tried to get justice for her beloved maternal grandmother. Mirya was just a child when her grandmother was brutally murdered. She told me the loss devastated the family. Mirya’s mother experienced homelessness and became involved with abusive men.

Mirya told me there was a former Cincinnati police officer who may have an idea of who could have killed her grandmother. Mirya said her uncle was a snitch who gave information about drug deals and other local crimes to a Cincinnati police officer. The uncle had enemies who may have wanted to retaliate against him by killing Ernestine.

There are no details about the killer. A witness claimed it was possibly a black man who stabbed Ernestine. But the witness wasn’t sure. Today, Mirya is the lone person seeking information about her murdered grandmother. She has pleaded with Cincinnati police and the FBI for help. But neither have given her any useful information leading to her grandmother’s killer.

Nicole Burnham wanted to pursue a career after she graduated from high school. She joined the National Guard and then went active duty and became a full-time soldier. Although her parents weren’t happy with their daughter’s decision, they supported her.

Her mother said her going to the military would be the worst decision she had ever made. She was sent to Camp Casey in South Korea on April 15, 2017.

Life in South Korea wouldn’t be a positive experience. After an accident that left her with a severed finger, she was then sexually assaulted. In June, a group of fellow soldiers held Nicole down, assaulted her and then took photos of her. Nicole’s mother told me it wasn’t an actual rape, but damn close.

She would also be sexually harassed non-stop by a group of the same 4 or 5 male soldiers. One asked her to have a three way sexual encounter with him and his wife. Another soldier asked her when was it going to be his turn to get a piece of that. Another incident involved a soldier shoving a wrench into her rectum with enough force that it ripped her pants.

Nicole requested an immediate transfer back to the states. She was terrified and felt alienated. She told her mother she had become an outcast after telling on her abusers. Nicole said people just avoided her and didn’t speak to her. She would end up having to wait 82 days before she could return back to the states.

Fort this week’s story, I spoke to Stacey Burnham who is the mother of Nicole Burnham, the young 21- year-old soldier who left us too early. After being sexually harassed and tormented, she felt like killing herself was the only way out of her nightmare inflicted upon her by her fellow soldiers in the United States Army. On January 26, 2018, shortly after her 21st birthday, Nicole hanged herself using her military belt in her room at Fort Carson. Today, her parents and brothers still live with the agony of knowing the Army didn't do enough to save Nicole.

When he was 10 years old, he witnessed his father being murdered in front of his grandmother’s home. Hosiah’s mother, Natasha Johnigan described her son as a high-spirited person and an active father who loved to help others.

Hosia graduated from North Garland High School and then attended ad graduated from Grambling State University. He was a father of two who loved his son and daughter. His mother said he had a phenomenal relationship with his children.

On February 20, 2020, Hosiah and his roommate were home in their apartment. The roommate had just returned from work and was getting into the shower. He heard someone knock on the door and a woman’s voice. He then heard gunfire.

Someone had shot shot and killed Hosiah in the kitchen of his apartment around 11pm and then fled. The roommate didn’t witness the crime because he climbed out of the bathroom window and ran to his vehicle when he heard the gunshots.

His mother said “It was someone he trusted that he let inside the house,” Johnigan said.

“Somebody that was close to my son did this and me, the family and the friends will not sleep until that person or persons are caught,” she said. ”I’ve heard so many stories. I haven’t heard specifically from the roommate who said he was there and jumped out the window. It was somebody close to him. I know God is so good and he’s so faithful. Justice will be served.”

Three people have since been charged with killing Hosia Abdallah Jr. since this recording.

In 2001, authorities received a confession from a man who had already died. The confession was left in a safe deposit box and to be given to authorities upon his passing.

The letter read, “These two men I killed in their beds by cutting their throats and there was another guy who wasn’t supposed to be there but I had to kill him too because he showed up,” the letter continued. “Ted was supposed to pay me when he got the insurance money but he kept putting me off because he said he had lost some money, but he said he would pay me as soon as he could." “The paper said that a yellow Oldsmobile was seen at the place where I killed them but it was really my yellow Plymouth Road Runner. I buried my boots because the tracks they found ‘em ‘cuz I knew they could match up on the prints on my boots.”

For this story, I spoke to retired Indianapolis police Captain Robert Snow and also Mary Duke who was the daughter of Carroll Horton, the man falsely accused of the murders.

Around 1 p.m., Beverly told her grandmother she needed to return home and meet up with her friends Barbara and Margie. An 18-year-old neighbor of Beverly’s grandmother gave Beverly a ride home. Beverly was going to meet with her friend Barbara and then spend the afternoon with another friend. Barbara arrived at 1:25 p.m. She knocked on the door and then heard a thump coming from upstairs. It sounded as if someone was moving furniture.

After no one responded, Barbara returned home. She spoke to her friend Margie and told her Beverly never answered the door. The three girls originally planned on spending the day together. Margie called Beverly’s grandmother and told her Beverly didn’t answer the door to Barbara.

The grandmother called Beverly’s dad Ted Jarosz and shared her concern. Ted left work to check on his daughter. He arrived home loud music playing. He went upstairs to check on his daughter. He found Beverly lying face down. Someone had murdered his beloved daughter.

During the early morning hours of July 6, 2007, Sarah was shot to death. Her family believes Sarah told her boyfriend she was moving out of her apartment, breaking up with him and starting a new life. Betsy said that Sarah’s boyfriend had previously threatened with harm if she ever tried to leave him.

It all started with a 911 call just before 4 a.m. The call came from the boyfriend’s mother. She stated, “My son shot his girlfriend, my son accidentally shot his girlfriend, he believes she is dead, they were fighting over the gun.”

The boyfriend claimed Sarah was suicidal and wanted to kill herself. Allegedly, she picked up his gun and threatened to shoot herself.

She was murdered in July 2007. Sarah had big dreams. She worked at a local pharmacy and had career goals. Unfortunately, she wouldn’t live long enough to achieve her dream...
During the early morning hours of July 6, 2007, Sarah was shot to death. Her family believes Sarah told her boyfriend she was moving out of her apartment, breaking up with him and starting a new life. Betsy said that Sarah’s boyfriend had previously threatened with harm if she ever tried to leave him.

It all started with a 911 call just before 4 a.m. The call came from the boyfriend’s mother. She stated, “My son shot his girlfriend, my son accidentally shot his girlfriend, he believes she is dead, they were fighting over the gun.”

The boyfriend claimed Sarah was suicidal and wanted to kill herself. Allegedly, she picked up his gun and threatened to shoot herself. He claims while trying to take the gun from her, she was accidentally shot dead. The case was brought in front of a grand jury, but they refused to take the case to trial. I spoke to Betsy Wallace and Angela Walters, who are two of Sarah's family members. They continue seeking justice for Sarah.

Brian’s last contact with his family was a text on July 6, 2019. Lori Duncan, who is Brian’s sister, said he texted that he had met up with some bad people. He was last seen alive on July 6 at the Red Carpet Inn in East Dublin where he had been staying. The family unsuccessfully spent many hours trying to find Brian. His body was discovered in a heavily wooded area in October 2019. Law enforcement confirmed Brian's death in November 2019.

Brian was a skilled carpenter and Christian. Although he had battled drug addiction, his sister Lori told me Brian was a good man who loved his family and God. Brian’s family is convinced he was killed by someone he knew. For this story, I spoke to Brian’s sister Lori Duncan. She told me about Brian’s battles with his addiction and his love for his family.

What happened to Brian? Do you know? Perhaps you can help his family by providing a tip. Even if you know something or have heard something that you think is insignificant, I ask you to please either share the tip with the East Dublin Police Department at (478) 272-6883 or you can contact the family through their FB page. The FB page is titled Brian Samples Missing. The family will share any tips with law enforcement.

Jenny appeared on television shows like The Twilight Zone, Dr. Kildare, and Bonanza. In 1961, she played a spoiled rich girl in an Elvis Presley movie called Blue Hawaii. After a ten year run in Hollywood, she decided to give up acting and focus more on motherhood.

She married a wealthy attorney named Evrin “Tip” Roeder on February 17, 1970. The marriage was a nightmare for both Roeder and Jenny. They argued, cheated on each other and were headed for divorce court after a decade together. On June 10, 1981 around 3 p.m., a gunman approached the couple and forced them inside Jenny’s condo. The gunman shot Jenny twice in the head and shot Tip once in the stomach. Jenny died immediately, but Tip managed to stagger away and get help. He died two hours later.

A detective at the scene told a lone reporter he thought it was a robbery gone bad. And since 1981, that’s where the story has ended. Unknown to the public, the case was actually solved. But no one ever picked up the story and went any further with it. For all these years, everyone has always thought the murders of Jenny Maxwell and her husband Tip Roeder were unsolved. This wasn’t true.

Fast forward to 2019. Jenny and her first cousin Vera were close as children. Vera was older and would spend time babysitting Jenny. Their fathers were brothers. Vera loved her little cousin and was devastated when Jenny was murdered. For years, she wondered what had happened to her little cousin she used to babysit.

Vera’s life would eventually come to an end in 2019. However, before she died, she had one final request. She asked her son Buddy Moorehouse to find out what happened to her beloved cousin. She had to know before she died. Vera’s son Buddy Moorehouse learned that Jenny’s homicide was solved in 1981. But for all these years, Jenny’s family didn’t know because the information was never made public. Before Buddy’s mother died, he was able to give his mother the answers she had so patiently waited several decades for.

For this unique story, I spoke to Buddy Moorhouse, who gave me many details about his famous cousin’s death and how it was solved.

Melissa worked at a local dental clinic. On December 1, 1994, Melissa Witt parked her car in the Fort Smith, Arkansas Bowling World parking lot. Her mother, Mary Ann Witt, was a member of the bowling alley’s bowling league. Melissa often met with her mother at the bowling alley so they could have dinner together.

Melissa was abducted from the Bowling World parking lot. She was struck in the head. Evidence found at the scene showed signs of a struggle. Blood was found in the parking lot along with her keys and one earring.

On January 13, 1995, two hunters were walking through the Ozark National Forest. Around the Turner Bend area, the men found Melissa’s naked body. Someone had strangled her. For this story, I spoke to LaDonna Humphrey who is the Executive Producer of the Witt project and Aric Mitchell who is with the Ft. Smith police department. LaDonna created a documentary about Melissa Witt that is scheduled to be released sometime this year.

Unfortunately, Melissa’s mother Mary Anne died on March 20, 2011 without knowing who killed her daughter. But it’s still not too late to identify Melissa’s killer. If you know anything about Melissa’s homicide, please contact the Fort Smith Police Department at (479) 709-511.

Fawn sat in the car with Mike’s girlfriend, Stephanie. Fawn said she was going to go home and watch some scary movies. Stephanie never saw Fawn again after that conversation.

Fawn’s cousin Bridgette Gill told me that everyone loved her. She was a friendly and easygoing young woman, just trying to make her way in life. She said Fawn had a hard life. She had been physically and sexually abused in the past and had a daughter named Kayden who died. She was stillborn.

Until 2009, Fawn had never engaged in a relationship with a woman until meeting Heather Dibert in an Altoona Pennsylvania nightclub called “The Island.” The two connected and started a relationship.

Fawn ended up moving to Claysburg with Heather. Heather and Fawn had a volatile relationship. Fawn tried to leave many times, but would always end up returning to Heather. Unfortunately, no one reported Fawn missing until 2017, which was five years after she disappeared. I asked Bridgette if she thought Fawn was alive. She told me there was no way she was alive. Fawn didn’t drive or have a job. She relied on a social security check and had nowhere to go.

Although the Pennsylvania State Police haven’t named any persons of interest, they believe there is foul play involved in Fawn’s disappearance. Heather was the last person to be seen with Fawn. She claimed Fawn had just left with no explanation. And that’s where the case stands today.

Additionally, Alicia has never been on her own and needs help from her family. The Glendale Arizona Police are investigating the disappearance. The family has also partnered with a non-profit group called The Anti-Predator Project.

When she left home, Alicia took her cellphone and laptop, but neither have shown any activity since her disappearance. Although Alicia was autistic, her mother said she was a smart girl who was tech savvy. She only had a few friends, but she spent much time online playing games like any other teenager.

It’s believed that someone reached out to her and began grooming her. And this is most likely the person who lured her away from her home in 2019. Alicia will be turning 17 in September. Her mother has spent every day trying to find new clues leading to Alicia’s whereabouts. Alicia’s case has made the national news and has been shared constantly on social media. However, the publicity hasn’t led the family or law enforcement any closer to bringing Alicia home.

For this week’s episode, Alicia’s mother Jessica Nunez, Trent Steele of the Anti Predator project based out of Florida and Officer Tiffany NGalula of the Glendale Police Department share details about the disappearance of teenager Alicia Navarro.

If you know anything about this case, please either contact the National Center for missing and exploited kids at 1-800-THE-LOST or you can call the Glendale Police department at (623) 930 – 3000.

Nancy’s last words were “Oh God.”

The call abruptly ended.

Daughter Suzanne, 15, came home about 3 p.m. She called out to her mother and received no response. Suzanne climbed the stairs to her mother’s bedroom. She saw her mother’s feet lying on the master bedroom floor. Suzanne called the police, then ran to a neighbor. Authorities arrived to find a horrific scene. Nancy Jo Canode, 39, was found with a rope wrapped around her neck. She had been raped, bitten and stabbed with a knife and ice pick. The murder appeared personal and was done with much violence. The knife was left on her back.

It’s been over 40 years since Nancy was brutally murdered. Daughters Shuri Sheppard and Suzanne Speight have spent all these years trying to catch the person who killed their mother.

Here is a piece from the Cincinnati Enquirer about the case:

May 29, 2011, the Stephensons were slain in brutal fashion – bludgeoned and stabbed – and then, whoever killed them staged a bizarre scene. Detective Coy Cox, who’s headed the Boone County Sheriff’s investigation since Day 1, told me he’s been “guarded and careful” about the details he’s released from the start. What he will say is that the bodies had been posed. Items inside the house had been moved around. “There wasn’t one room in that house that wasn’t staged,” Cox said

So who and why would anyone kill an elderly couple who devoted their lives to helping others?
Detective Cox informed me the killer or killers spent some time in the home after killing the couple. I found this unusual because most killers commit their crimes and then leave immediately. Before he retires, Detective Cox is committed to solving this double homicide.

For this week’s story, I spoke to Beth Stephenson, who is the daughter of Bill and Peggy Stephenson. I also spoke to lead detective Coy Cox of the Boone County Sheriff’s department.

If you are listening and know the answer to this mystery, I would ask that you contact the Boone County Sheriff’s Department with your tip. There are several ways to do so. You can call 859-334-8496 and leave a tip. Or if you are incarcerated, you can call 844-210-1111. For additional information about Bill and Peggy Stephenson, you can visit the In Loving Memory of Bill and Peggy Stephenson Facebook page.

You can also send your tip by email at StephensonTip@BooneCountyKy.org There is also a substantial reward available for the person who can lead the capture of this unknown killer or killers. You can also visit the In Loving Memory of Bill and Peggy Stephenson FB page for more information about this couple. I will also provide this information in the episode story notes.

However, on the day of graduation, authorities received a 911 call and arrived at Scott Moody’s home. What authorities would discover was horrific. They found the bodies of Scott Moody, his mother Sheri, and 14-year-old Paige Harshbarger and 19-year-old Megan Karus who were Scott’s friends. Authorities would also find the bodies of Scott’s maternal grandparents Gary and Sheryl Shafer. The Shafers lived in a separate residence near their grandchildren and daughter.
Someone had also shot Scott’s sister Stacy. She would be the only survivor. In 2 hours, the Logan County Sheriff’s department ruled the case a murder suicide and that Scott had killed his family before killing himself with a .22 caliber rifle.

But there was a problem. When Stacy recovered enough to speak, she was asked who shot her. She said that she was shot by a gray haired man wearing a blue shirt. The police would dismiss her statement and tell her Scott was the shooter. Although Stacy and several witnesses saw a middle aged gray haired man, the Logan Sheriff’s department has always dismissed this person as the shooter.

For this episode, I spoke to attorney and author Rob St. Clair who wrote the book titled Saving Stacy. Rob represented Scott’s father and also got to know the family well. He has spent many hours researching this case, studying court documentation and the sheriff’s documentation about the case. In his book, Saving Stacy, Rob provides many details unknown to the public about this case.

But Shelton didn’t want to go alone. He wanted a friend to go with him.

Another friend named Mark Richardson agreed to ride with Shelton. The two set out that evening to find a hotel room for their friend’s bachelor party.

The plan was to pick out several rooms and then let the friends decide which room they wanted. However, no one seems to know what happened to Shelton on that evening. The next morning, Shelton’s mother Peggy received a call from his employer. He failed to show up for work and never made it home on June 20, 2001 as expected.

His family immediately knew something was wrong. Mark always let his family know about his whereabouts. He would also never miss work. He had also borrowed his brother’s car, which was also missing. The family filed a missing persons report after the required 48 hour wait.
The family contacted Mark Richardson who seemed aloof. He said Shelton brought him home and then left. Shelton’s family didn’t believe Richardson. They suspected he was somehow involved in Shelton’s disappearance.

Lin was a 75-year-old grandmother with no known enemies. Who would kill this beloved grandmother? The alleged killer identification would be surprising. Authorities arrested a 50-year-old man named Gary Shane Clinton, with first-degree murder. Clinton was Lin’s former son in law. Stacey had been divorced from Clinton for over a decade. Stacey told me that she believes Clinton killed her mother out of revenge. It seems Clinton wanted to hurt his ex-wife by murdering her mother. By why did he do this after so many years? Did he harbor this anger for all these years?

As of this recording, Clinton hasn’t gone to trial yet, so he’s technically not guilty of the murder. However, The Abilene Police Department forensic unit has collected over 50 pieces of evidence, which was enough to charge Clinton with killing his former mother-in-law.

Clinton was married to Stacey Magovern many years ago. She had no communication or any involvement with him since there divorce. She had moved on and started a new life. However, Clinton was no stranger to law enforcement. He has been arrested over 40 times. Be sure to Stacey Magovern share the details about the death of her mother.

So who is Grant Inman? Well, he isn’t a fireman, a police officer or a paramedic. Grant experienced much death while working for his father at the family funeral home. He also hosts an excellent and unique podcast called My Funeral Home Stories.

If you are fascinated by true crime or if you have ever wondered what it’s like to be around the deceased, then you need to listen to his podcast. I found the episodes addictive. To get an idea of his podcast, I played a small clip from an episode and then followed up by asking him questions about what it was like working in the funeral home business. I think most of us have a morbid curiosity with death. It’s one of life’s darkest mysteries. To quote the late singer Jim Morrison. “No one here gets out alive.”

To listen to Grant's podcast, listen on iHeart radio (https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-my-funeral-home-stories-30994443) or wherever else you get your podcasts. You can also follow him on IG at https://www.instagram.com/pomoandkitsch/.

Her body was found a little over three weeks later in a field that was within ten miles of her home. Kimberly was nude. Someone had beaten her, savagely raped her and then strangled her. It’s believed that her body had been dumped their within several days of being located. This meant is what likely that someone held her hostage for possibly the past three weeks.

What’s even more disturbing is that there were two other young women who were also murdered around the same time as Kim. They were identified as Anna Marie Doroghazi and Christina Lynn Castiglione. All three homicides remain unsolved. It’s unknown if the killings are related. Law enforcement believes it possible a serial killer killed the young women.

I spoke to Cindy Arthurs who discusses the death of her older sister Kimberly Louiselle and Detective Angela Hunt of the Michigan State Police. It’s been nearly 40 years since Kim was raped and murdered. She said there was DNA but was too disintegrated to use. However, she said there was DNA recovered from Christina Castiglione.

Candi was a young mother caring for her daughter Paige. She was close to her family and sister-in-law Heather Hiltz. For Candi, a series of events would lead to her homicide. Her story begins when an officer arrived at her home looking for her brother James Hiltz. The officer began questioning his mother Dolores Hiltz about James. The officer became angry and raised his voice at Dolores. Candi stepped in and told the officer to stop disrespecting her mother. The officer told her to be quiet or he would arrest her.

Candi held out her arms and told the officer to arrest her. But if he did, she would report him to his superiors for taking money from a prominent drug dealer.

Shortly after, Candi’s dog disappeared. Someone had lured the dog from the property, tied it to a tree, then killed it. Within a few weeks of the family dog being killed, intruders had unknowingly entered Candy’s home and waited for her.

Candi was shot through the chest and in the head. The killers then wrapped her body in a blanket and left her body near her baby, who was in a basinet.

Sometime later, a man purchased the remnants of a storage shed. When he entered it, he found the bloody blanket used to cover Candi’s body, an axe, rope, other items and a police uniform belonging to detective Robert Dodd. It was also learned that Detective Dodd had disposed of other police evidence at a local dump.

The Hiltz family and the community wondered why this evidence secured in a police evidence room?

For this episode of the Catch my Killer podcast, Candi’s sister Heather Hiltz and private investigator Rich Prater tell Candi’s story.

Police entered a bullet ridden home and found Tatyana Sims and her young daughter suffering from gunshot wounds. Although Tatyana’s daughter survived, she died in the hospital. The police found over 40 shell casings at the home. Amanda Davis, who is Tatyana’s mother, told me that the baby slept on a couch that evening. And this is what saved her life.

Before Tatyana died, she told her mom she had received a death threat from a man who terrified her. Amanda said her daughter knew this man was going to kill her.

Amanda has said there are people who know what happened to her daughter. But they won’t speak to the police because they are terrified of reprisal. Do you know what happened to this young mother?

The ranch was roughly 25 miles away from Tim’s home. Not only did he work at the farm, he also lived there. Tim worked as a farm hand for a man named Phillip Klinger who is now deceased. Tim cleaned stalls and did other manual labor.

He was last seen on February 6, 1987. Allegedly, he left the farm with a friend who drove a 1970 something Chevy Impala. And this is where this case gets strange. If you look up Timothy Guy on the internet, there are many articles and theories about his fate.

Warren Guy is Tim’s father. He has been searching for his son for over 30 years. Over the years, he has heard many rumors about his son. One of the more horrific ones is that Tim never left the Sleepy Fox Farm alive.

For this week's episode, I spoke to a true crime blogger named Anthony (Shurlock Holmes) who is Warren's friend. I also spoke to Dawn Klinger, who is the daughter of Timothy's late employer. It's been alleged he was involved with Tim's disappearance. Dawn has defended her father and said he had nothing to do with Tim's disappearance.

She said his injuries resembled those of someone who was in a car wreck.

Sarah later found out that a neighbor had witnessed an unknown dark haired man arguing with Brandon shortly before he died. Sarah also mentioned that Brandon had a female friend who seemed to have information about Brandon’s death that wasn’t publicly released.

Sarah has shared Brandon’s story in hopes that her son’s case will be reopened and Brandon’s death will be investigated as a homicide. The police have closed Brandon's case. If you have any tips or information about his death, please contact Sarah Lee through Brandon's FB page titled Brandon's voice (https://www.facebook.com/brandonwembry/).

Danny Stowe’s story goes back to a strip club called the Purple Onion that was once in Atlanta. He was playing pool with his brothers as he often did. On occasion, Danny would work the door and collect entrance fee money from patrons. On the night of February 26, 1982, Danny was spending time with his brothers. The man scheduled to work the door called off. Danny was asked to work the door, which he did.

During the evening, an unknown black man entered the Purple Onion and began ordering drinks. He asked if he could run a tab. He became angry after being denied. He was then asked to leave. The man left the bar and retrieved a gun. He fired into the club and fatally shot 28-year-old Danny Stowe. The killer then fled in a pristine Orange Nova with a black top. The Atlanta police secured the glass the man was drinking from. It had his fingerprints on it. They also retrieved the bullet used to kill Danny.

Unfortunately, the glass and bullet have disappeared.

Someone out there knows who killed Danny. Do you know who killed him? If you are listening to this story and know something, I urge you to call in a tip and help the Stowe family get justice.

Although his mother Gloria didn’t want him to join, she still supported her first born son’s dream. Ronald kept in touch with his mom. The two spoke regularly. Ronnie would eventually be sent to Okinawa, Japan.

Gloria last spoke to her son on August 31, 2018. For five days she went without hearing from her son. She found it strange and had a feeling something was wrong. Her son wouldn’t go so long without contacting her. He knew she worried about him. Gloria would learn that her son went missing for five days before he was reported missing.

On September 5, 2018, the Marines contacted Gloria and asked if she knew where her son was. She said he was at his duty assignment at Camp Hansen in Okinawa, Japan. She was shocked and upset that they were asking where her son was. Weren’t they keeping tabs on their soldiers?

A day later on the 6th, Gloria learned that her son Ronald was no longer missing. He was found in a drainage ditch 200 feet from where he was last seen. He had suffered blunt force trauma to the back of the head. Someone had murdered the 21 year old Marine.

After two years, Gloria hasn’t received any answers from NCIS or anyone else about her son’s homicide. She remains in the dark and has no answers. She wants to know who killed Ronald and why? She has told me she will never stop pursuing answers until she finds out who killed her son.

If you know anything about the death of this young man, please contact NCIS at 1-800-543-6289 or visit their website at https://www.ncis.navy.mil/.

On December 7, 2016 just before 8pm, Victor was at his mother’s home. He was standing outside on the porch when someone approached him and fired shots at him. After hearing the sounds of gunfire, Candy ran to the front door to find Victor mortally wounded. He had staggered into the house and then collapsed.

The family found abrasions on his body and a fractured hyoid bone. To the family, it appears someone may have assaulted Riley before his death.

Misty Schultz-McCoy of Colorado is understandably upset about her son’s death. She knows he wouldn’t kill himself. He was looking forward to coming home for a visit and just enjoying life.
On the day of Riley’s death, he was scheduled to guard some company equipment between 3:50 and 5 am. Another Marine arrived to relieve Riley and found him deceased. What’s also troubling is that Riley’s family was originally told his death wasn’t a suicide. They then changed the decision.

The family knows this isn’t true. Patricia knows her son. He would never just walk away from his responsibilities and family without contacting them. He has family overseas, but none of them have reported seeing or hearing from Richard. They have had to do their own investigation into Richard’s disappearance. Patricia told me the local authorities won’t search for him because the Army has jurisdiction over him. And the Army won’t look for him because he’s considered a deserter. This has left the family in a quandary.

Listening to Patricia, it doesn’t sound likely that Richard walked away from his life. For one, he didn’t own a car and two he didn’t have any money. He also left his possessions behind. So how far would he have gotten without any money, a vehicle or his belongings?

Patricia doesn’t feel like her son is alive because she cannot believe he would go this long without contacting his family. She thinks it’s possible that he was killed within the confines of Fort Bliss or someplace nearby. No cameras picked up on him walking away from the base. So he couldn’t have just walked away unnoticed. Someone saw him and knows what happened to him. The family believes there are fellow soldiers who know more than what they are saying but may be fearful of saying anything.

If you know anything about Richard Halliday, please call the Fort Bliss military police dispatch at 915-744-2115, the Fort Bliss military police investigative office at 915-305-1015 or the family at 941-677-0060.

Unknown to them, two men had approached the house and began firing. The house was riddled with gunfire. It’s believed that over 20 shots were fired. At the time of the shooting, there were several other children at the house. This included both Jayden and Montell's siblings.

Montell was one of the first victims shot. Young Jayden fled the room to safety. But once he realized he didn’t see Montell, he rushed to get his cousin to safety. Jayden ran back into the line of fire to save his cousin. He was shot immediately. He managed to crawl into the arms of his older brother Jason before dying. Try to imagine what it would be like to be Jayden’s teenage brother. He has had to live with the memory of his little brother dying in his arms. It’s not something I want to even think about.

Four long years have passed since the death of these young boys. Their families miss them dearly. Aisha told me some of the surviving kids have been affected forever. For instance, some of them are fearful to be near windows. And they all live in fear because the killers are still roaming the streets.

So far, the police have said no one is talking. There are people who know what happened, but they aren’t talking. Do you know who murdered these young cousins? If you have any information relevant to this case, please call in your tips at 816-474-TIPS. You can remain anonymous.

Unknown to them, two men had approached the house and began firing. The house was riddled with gunfire. It’s believed that over 20 shots were fired. At the time of the shooting, there were several other children at the house. This included both Jayden and Montell's siblings.

Montell was one of the first victims shot. Young Jayden fled the room to safety. But once he realized he didn’t see Montell, he rushed to get his cousin to safety. Jayden ran back into the line of fire to save his cousin. He was shot immediately. He managed to crawl into the arms of his older brother Jason before dying.

Lavena was his pride and joy. Dr. Johnson and his wife Linda were the parents of 3 sons and two daughters. Dr. Johnson said he took much pride in the fact that Lavena not only looked like him, but she also had his personality. They both shared a similar outlook about life. Lavena came from a loving home where family meant everything.

Although Lavena’s family hoped she would attend college, they supported her decision to join the Army. But life would take a turn for the worse for the Johnson family after Lavena was deployed to Iraq in 2005.

On July 17th, 2005, Lavena had a final conversation with her father. The two had made plans to decorate the Christmas tree together after she returned home to Missouri. Two days after that phone call, the Johnson family received a visit from a soldier with horrific news. Lavena had allegedly committed suicide in Iraq.

Dr. Johnson launched his own investigation into the matter. He has since learned that his daughter was raped and murdered. He has spent 15 years pleading for the Army to reclassify Lavena's death as a homicide and not a suicide

Sue and Toni began looking into the circumstances. They were told that Keith had put on his motorcycle head and shot himself to death. But they became even more concerned when they saw photos of the death scene.

Someone had desecrated Keith's body and residence. Homosexual slurs were written on Keith's body and all over his walls. Whoever did this apparently wanted to send a message. Also, Keith wasn't gay. Within a few hours, the Navy ruled Keith's death a suicide. His parents said the Navy made the ruling without ever checking Keith's fingers for gunpowder residue.

Keith’s parents have spoken to people who knew Keith. They have been told by reliable sources that someone murdered him. They have also discussed Keith’s case with medical experts who also believe someone murdered Keith.. Tony believes more than one person may have been involved in killing his son.

Unfortunately, Sue and Tony have had no luck getting anyone to listen to them. For the past 8 years they have tried everything to get keith’s death changed from a suicide to a homicide. This has become their mission in life. Be sure to visit the following articles for more details about this case:

A passing motorist driving along that road came across the bodies of Fosnaught and Baur, who were laying near each other in the road. Scott was already deceased. He had suffered major injuries to his chest area. Shawn was still alive, but barely. He had two massive head wounds. He was was rushed to the hospital where he would die from his wounds.

The boys were good friends and had spent much time together. They both lived in Evans City, Pennsylvania in Butler county. The Pennsylvania state police took the lead on investigating the homicides. But what they found was troubling. Based on the injuries, authorities believe the boys were struck by a vehicle. Scott’s body could have been hit by a car based on his internal injuries. However, it didn’t seem likely that Shawn was hit by a car. He had suffered severe trauma to his head. His injuries appeared more in line with being struck with a weapon than by a car. Also, if the boys were hit by a car, why was there no broken glass, paint chips or skid marks which are typically at the scene when someone is hit by a car.

Do you know what happened to these boys? If you do, please pick up your phone and do the right thing and call Trooper Deluca of the Pennsylvania State Police at 724-284-8100 or you can call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-4PA-TIPS (8477).

But something would go wrong for Jaleayah that evening.

Jaleayah called her sister Taubi around 3:23 A.M., asking her sister to pick her up at a gas station. During the phone conversation Taubi said she heard Jaleayah tell Bechtold to “Give me my keys.”
Five minutes later, Jaleayah called back and changed the pick-up location to a rest stop off I-77. Taubi said that during this call, Jaleyah was crying, cursing and appeared angry at Bechtold. Jaleyah said she would tell Taubi what was going on when she arrived at the meeting spot.

At 3:48 A.M., a truck driver called 911 to report what appeared to be a dead body in the passing lane of the interstate. It was Jaleayah's body. She was decapitated and naked above the waist. Also, her clothing was neatly folded and laid on top of the guard rail. Jaleyah’s coat was at the bottom, then her shirt and bra were set on top of the coat. After a 16 month investigation, the police ruled Jaleyah's death an accident and close the case.

Kim and Taubi Davis disagreed with the ruling. Kim believes someone else drove Jaleayah’s car, accelerated it and then ran her over. After Jaleaya became lodged underneath the car, her head struck a guardrail post.

Kim believes the person who killed her daughter then tried to dislodge Jaleayah's body from underneath the car. Most likely, when her body was pulled from the car, her shirt, jacket and bra were pulled off. The accident theory doesn’t explain Jaleayah’s blood on the front of the car or underneath it. It also doesn’t explain how Jaleaya’s clothing was found neatly folded and placed on a guardrail.

If you have any information about the death of Jaleayah Davis, please submit your tips through the Justice for Jaleayah FB page. Kim and Taubi Davis are active on the FB page and will forward your tips to the proper authorities.

The paramedics tried to save Sarah Widmer, but she was beyond help. The coroner ruled her death as a drowning. But did her husband drown her or did she suffer from an unknown medical condition that caused her death?

The police quickly assumed Ryan had murdered his wife. He was arrested and indicted quickly. At the time, many armchair detectives and the media portrayed Ryan Widmer as a killer. But did he really kill his wife as the police claimed? Is it possible that this young woman could have had a seizure before drowning? Most people think it’s impossible. But when you look into Sarah’s past, you begin to realize it was a possibility. She had previously fallen asleep in the bathtub. Co workers said she would take breaks and sleep in her car.

For this episode, I spoke to former Cincinnati Enquirer reporter Janice Hisle. She covered all three of Ryan Widmer's trials and wrote a book about this case. If you would like to know more about this story, please visit Amazon.com and purchase Janice’s book. Or you can purchase it directly from her and receive an autographed copy. She is also open to listening to theories about this case.

She assumed he had returned home and assumed he was up. This was unusual because he turned off his light when he wasn’t home and he said he was staying over with someone. However, Danye wasn’t in his room.

Melissa then saw something strange outside. She went outside to find her son Danye hanging from a tree with his pants pulled down around his ankles. For a brief moment of time, her life just stood still. Her youngest son was hanging from a sheet with balled up fists. After calling the police, they arrived to investigate. Investigators located a chair knocked over near the tree.

Melissa told me authorities immediately ruled Danye’s death a suicide. She believes her son was murdered and the hanging was staged. Melissa also said Danye didn’t know how to tie the knots used in the rope around his neck. She also said the sheet used to hang Danye wasn’t from her home. However, St. Louis County police still claim Danye killed himself. Melissa's family is on a mission to have her son's case changed from suicide to homicide. If you have any information about Danye's death, please call 866-371-TIPS.

Michael survived a military stint in Vietnam only to die at the hands of Neenah Wisconsin police officers Craig Hoffer and Robert Ross. For ML, the day began as any other day. He worked at a motorcycle repair shop called Eagle Nation Cycles in Neenah, Wisconsin with his close friend Steven Erato, who owned the shop.

On December 5, 2015, a man named Brian Flatoff entered the shop and took Ryan Moderson, Mike Petersen and Funk as hostages. Flatoff wanted to steal a motorcycle he once owned from the shop.

During the hostage ordeal, while armed with a handgun he carried for protection, Funk escaped through the backdoor. After escaping, Officers Hoffer and Ross shot Michael Funk dead.
Officers stormed the building and arrested Flatoff, who was eventually prosecuted and sentenced to prison. Afterward, there was an investigation into ML Funk’s shooting.

Former Wisconsin Attorney General Brad Schimel’s office determined officers Craig Hoffer and Robert Ross were justified in killing Funk. He said the officers incorrectly thought Funk was the armed hostage-taker and reacted under the threat of imminent death and therefore "acted in an objectively reasonable manner" in shooting Funk. Schimel called Funk’s death a tragic mistake and that he did nothing to deserve to die.

However, Shop owner Steven Erato claims there is more to this story than meets the eye. Listen as David Starr tells the story of Michael Funk and the unanswered questions about his death.For more information about this upcoming film, you can contact David Starr through his FB page titled The Fifty Million Dollar Bullet.

During the investigation the caller changed his story multiple times, failed a polygraph test and offered an unbelievable, if not impossible explanation as to how DJ shot himself. According to Amanda, two witnesses watched then entire scene unfold. One was DJ’s wife Brandy. Both witnesses said the man who called 911 shot and killed DJ.

On May 14, 1988, a youth group consisting of students who attended North Hardin High School, James T. Alton Middle School, Radcliff Middle School and four adults from the Assembly of God church in Radcliff, Kentucky, boarded their church activity bus and headed to Kings Island theme park in Mason, Ohio.

The group included church members and their invited guests.

After spending a fun filled day at the Mason, Ohio amusement park, the group left after the park closed. At 10:55 p.m., while heading south on Interstate 71 just outside Carrollton, Kentucky, the bus collided with a black 1987 Toyota pickup truck traveling the wrong way (north in the southbound lanes) at a high speed. The small truck was driven by Larry Wayne Mahoney, a 34-year-old intoxicated factory worker.

Of the 67 people on the bus (counting the driver), there were 27 fatalities. Listen to Quentin tell his story of near survival and how he has managed to turn a horrific tragedy into a positive experience.

On Saturday, October 16, 1982, Houston Police officers responded to a call in the 900 block of Harbor Street. Upon arrival, officers were advised that at approximately 2:30 a.m., near the corner of Harbor Street and Abilene Street, Mr. Pat Neff Hall, Jr. was shot and killed. The victim was walking home with a co-worker from Margie and Bill’s Lounge, located at 1134 Harbor Street.

According to the co-worker, the men went their separate ways around 12:15 a.m. Mr. Hall continued walking northbound on Harbor Street and the co-worker turned onto a side street.
The motive behind the murder of Mr. Hall is still a mystery. Mr. Hall's family, along with the Houston Police Department's Cold Case, Squad request the public's assistance in solving this murder.

If you know anything about Pat's death, please send tips to Houston’s Crimestoppers at 713-222-Tips. I will share this information on the podcast notes. Your tips could qualify you for a reward from Crimestoppers.

On Saturday, October 16, 1982, Houston Police officers responded to a call in the 900 block of Harbor Street. Upon arrival, officers were advised that at approximately 2:30 a.m., near the corner of Harbor Street and Abilene Street, Mr. Pat Neff Hall, Jr. was shot and killed. The victim was walking home with a co-worker from Margie and Bill’s Lounge, located at 1134 Harbor Street.

According to the co-worker, the men went their separate ways around 12:15 a.m. Mr. Hall continued walking northbound on Harbor Street and the co-worker turned onto a side street.
The motive behind the murder of Mr. Hall is still a mystery. Mr. Hall's family, along with the Houston Police Department's Cold Case, Squad request the public's assistance in solving this murder.

If you know anything about Pat's death, please send tips to Houston’s Crimestoppers at 713-222-Tips. I will share this information on the podcast notes. Your tips could qualify you for a reward from Crimestoppers.

The Kyser and Keller families are still waiting for justice. Regina provided some insight into the relationship between David and Candice. They had dated in junior high school and were your typical teenage couple who found love at an early age. Candice and David became parents early and were ready for the challenge of parenthood.

The night before David and Candice died, they had spent time with Candice’s family. Regina said everything appeared fine. David and Candice left late in the evening to return home. They had plans to look at property with Sheila Kyser in the morning. After Sheila didn’t hear from her daughter, she drove to her daughter’s house to check on her. What she found would haunt her forever. She knocked on the front door and the back door. No answer.

Sheila knew something was wrong. She peeked in a window and saw her 2-year-old granddaughter unattended. She climbed in through a window and found her daughter’s body in her bedroom. Someone had shot her. Sheila grabbed her granddaughter and ran out the door for help. David was also found shot to death inside the home. Do you know who killed David and Candice?

The coroner originally ruled Ellen was murdered. But for unknown reasons, Ellen’s death was reclassified as a suicide. The coroner said he was under pressure from Philadelphia police to change it to a suicide. The Greenbergs cannot understand why this happened. No one from law enforcement or the Pennsylvania AG’s office have ever given the family a satisfactory explanation.

Ellen was stabbed 20 times in the back of her neck and back. She was in the midst of making herself a fruit salad. So we are to believe that while in the middle of making something to eat, she just decided to end her life. Ellen’s parents said their daughter was excited about her career and starting a family. She had everything to live for. She had never mentioned suicide to anyone or even shown any signs. Joshua and Sandra Greenberg have filed a lawsuit against the Philadelphia Coroner's office to have their daughter's death reclassified from a suicide to a homicide.

If you know anything about her death, please send tips to the Justice for Ellen Facebook page or contact their attorney Joe Podraza, Philadelphia Pa, at (215) 882-1015 or email him at jpodraza@lambmcerlane.com.

On 11/20/1972, in Franklin, Pa, Cyrena was at home reading her Bible. Someone approached her from behind and brutally stabbed her to death. It was originally believed she was shot to death because the wounds were so large. It wasn’t until the autopsy that it was learned that Cyrena was stabbed to death and not shot.

Venango County, Pennsylvania authorities arrested and charged a man named Frank Sidloski with the crime. A jury acquitted Sidloski. So who killed Cyrena? Wendy has always thought the killer was someone close to Cyrena. How close? Wendy is convinced one of her siblings was involved in the homicide.

To quote his trainer Jerry Tillman:

"James could have been a world champion," said Jerry Tillman, his trainer. "This kid was tough. He could take a punch, plus he could knock you out with either hand. And when he was training for a fight, he was a fanatic about conditioning. He could go 20 rounds."

A security camera at an automatic teller machine filmed Hughes withdrawing $100 on the last morning he was seen alive. About three hours later, his truck was found by some railroad tracks. Eleven days after that, they found his body submerged in the swamp face down. His watch, wallet and keys were missing.

Shortly after he headed home, an unknown shot him once in the head. He was taken to a hospital, where he died three days later, at 2:38 p.m. on June 20. It’s unclear if someone on foot shot him or if it was a drive by shooting. Anthony wasn’t affiliated with any gangs and had no known enemies. It’s believed he could have been shot by someone affiliated with a gang. Today, no one knows because no one is talking.

For this episode I spoke to Anthony’s cousin Shannon. She told me that Anthony was an amazing young man. He was a dedicated father and loved his 2 kids and wife more than life itself.

It’s been over 3 years since this young man was murdered. The family is still devastated and will never recover from the loss. On behalf of Anthony’s family, I am asking someone to do the right thing and provide a tip. It could be something you don’t think is important.

Anthony has 2 children that will never know him. He won’t be sitting at the dinner table for Thanksgiving dinner this year. And there will be no Christmas gifts from Anthony under the family Christmas tree. If you know something, please provide a tip.

If you have any about this case, please contact LAPD Detective Scott Coffee at (310) 726-7887. Or if you wish to remain anonymous you can call Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-8477.

They know that someone killed their son. They also know this person will be enjoying a nice Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday. But do you know who won’t be celebrating the holidays this year? Joshua Bremen won’t be. Instead of spending the holidays with his family, he is dead and buried.

Whoever killed Joshua knew they hit something. This person probably also had damage to his vehicle and lied about it. He must have washed his vehicle and taken it in for service somewhere. I believe it had human remains or some kind of damage from striking a person. Someone out there knows who did this. Perhaps it was a suspicious relative, friend or someone who worked on the vehicle and didn’t realize it was used to kill an innocent man. Do you know something? Can you help the Fowlers get justice?

If you know anything, please contact contact the Oklahoma Highway Patrol Troop K at 580-336-9880. Please also be sure to visit and join the Justice for Joshua FB page.
