It is a story that has perplexed and angered North Mississippians for twenty-five years. What happened to thirteen year-old Leigh Occhi? In this true crime series from WTVA Podcasts, every angle is pursued. And just maybe, questions will be answered.
Until now, JLU's investigation of a haunting disappearance in North Mississippi has been fragmented. Here, for the first time, all findings are brought together in one series. Based on years of research and interviews with involved parties, in addition to historical research, "Honey Locust" spotlights the short life of thirteen year-old Leigh Occhi, and exactly what happened to her. To access the six remaining episodes of Honey Locust, become a subscriber to the A SIP OF JUSTICE Patreon... https://www.patreon.com/aSipOfJustice You'll also get the investigative series "Big Heart Broken" and hours of ASOJ archives.
When Shondra May went missing back in 1986, her parents hoped their high school senior had gone away with her boyfriend on a whim. They prayed for a best case answer to their questions. What they eventually got was a worst case outcome. In this new investigative podcast series from A Sip of Justice, (recently rebranded from The Usry Network,) hear why Shondra was adored in her central Mississippi community, and take a hard look at a long list of suspects. What about the bad check-writer who turned out to be something far more sinister? Consider the hot rod-driving karate instructor who was the subject of countless complaints and reports from females in the area. Could a Sheriff's Deputy known to flirt with underage girls be responsible?
