On the night of December 15, 1996, 12-year-old Celina Mays went to bed in her family home in Willingboro, New Jersey.  By morning, she was gone. As police began investigating, they learned that when she disappeared, Celina was nine months pregnant and just days away from giving birth. They also learned that her family belonged to a controversial religious group led by her aunt—one that former members have described as a cult. This dynamic, along with reports that the aunt's son had molested underage girls in the church, complicated the case. Twenty-nine years later, Celina has never been found, and detectives are still working to untangle what happened inside the church and to Celina and her unborn baby. And despite everything, they haven't given up hope that she may still be alive. Celina Mays was last seen sometime overnight between December 15 and 16, 1996, at her home on Crestview Drive in Willingboro, New Jersey. She was 12 years old and nine months pregnant at the time. She was around 5 feet tall, weighing 120 pounds, with brown eyes and black hair.  Anyone with information is asked to call the Willingboro Police Department at (609) 877-3001 or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at (800) 843-5678.

Technology is a double-edged sword. It can empower us, connect us, and solve problems, but it can also be used to exploit, manipulate, and harm. When it comes to protecting children online, that line gets especially thin. Digital forensics, AI-powered image classification, and global law enforcement collaboration are now essential tools for keeping families safe in a world that moves faster than most of us can keep up. Debbie Garner knows this world intimately. She's a retired Special Agent in charge with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and former commander of the state's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force. For years she led efforts to track down online predators and bring justice to survivors. These days she's working in the private sector, serving on the boards of Raven and Revere Technologies, pushing for smarter tech solutions and stronger training to support those still on the front lines. In this episode we talk about the growing problem of online child exploitation, the reality of underfunded cybercrime units and the ways technology is being used to fight back. Whether you're a parent, an educator or just someone who cares about kids online, you need to hear this. Show Notes: [00:58] Debbie shares her law enforcement background over 30 years. She even worked undercover buying crack! [02:19] She spent the last 8 years of her career as the Supervisor Special Agent in charge of GBI's Child Exploitation and Computer Crimes Unit. [02:45] Now that she's retired from law enforcement, she works in the private sector with technology companies. [05:36] It's become her passion, even in retirement, to help those who are victims of exploitation. [07:09] Most children are victimized by someone they know. There's also plenty of predators online. [08:55] There are multiple organizations that work on child exploitation investigations. [10:53] People in law enforcement do tend to prioritize these types of crimes. [12:12] We talk about how the investigations begin. [13:53] Cases have increased from 2400 tips a year to over 30,000. [15:17] There's never enough technology to keep up with the increase. [16:41] RAVEN is a lobbying group to request additional funding from Congress. [18:33] With over 30,000 tips last year Georgia made over 450 arrests. [22:13] There's now technology that will help find CSAM on phones. There are also some amazing investigations on the dark web. [25:15] OSINT is helping investigate and it's a collaborative community.  [27:55] Channels to report exploitation. Start with the platform, then National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and law enforcement. [31:34] Don't put images on the internet. Websites like Take It Down can help with images of underage people and Take It Down can help adults.  [33:43] Always mention if the person is underage when you make a report. [34:10] Talk to your kids and start early with age appropriate conversations about CSAM. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

His mother, Charlotte Moriarty, took him from their home in Hau'ula, Hawaii, and left him in state custody under a false name after being admitted to a psychiatric hospital. She disappeared shortly afterward, and Carter was placed in an orphanage. At age four, he was adopted by Steve and Pat Carter and raised in New Jersey. In 2011, Carter, then 35 and living in Philadelphia, discovered his true identity while browsing the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's website.

The murder of six-year-old Adam Walsh in 1981 didn't just devastate a family—it fundamentally transformed how America protects its children and hunts its criminals. What began as a routine shopping trip to a Florida Sears department store ended in unimaginable tragedy when Adam disappeared while playing at a video game display, only to be found murdered weeks later.This horrific event catalyzed a revolution in American justice. Before Adam's case, there was no national database for missing children, no standardized protocols for immediate action, and no systematic way to mobilize the public in searches. His father John Walsh, previously a successful hotel developer, channeled his grief into creating these essential systems—founding the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, pioneering missing children images on milk cartons, and establishing "Code Adam" protocols now used in thousands of retail stores nationwide.But Walsh's most visible legacy came through television. By creating and hosting "America's Most Wanted," he transformed crime-fighting from a passive spectator sport into an interactive nationwide manhunt where everyday citizens became crucial partners in bringing fugitives to justice. The show's success was staggering: over 1,600 fugitives captured, including serial killers, child predators, and terrorists. More importantly, it helped recover over 60 abducted children alive—saving countless families from experiencing the same devastation the Walshes endured.The impact extends far beyond television. The Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 created comprehensive national standards for sex offender registration, while the Walsh family's advocacy directly influenced how law enforcement, businesses, and communities respond when children go missing. Through unimaginable pain, they forged systems that now protect millions.Listen as we explore this pivotal moment in American justice and how one family's tragedy became the catalyst for a safer nation.

The rage and hysteria are escalating. They're openly calling for Trump's assassination.They're marching, they're protesting, they're screaming into the void for what, they don't know. Something has been taken from them, something they desperately want back. It's been ten long years of fighting, but nothing has worked. There is no way out for them. They're trapped.If you talk to one of them, they will tell you they believe things that aren't true. Trump is taking away Social Security and Medicaid. They've eliminated the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. They've eliminated the Department of Education. They're “disappearing” people from the streets and sending them to concentration camps.The truth doesn't seem to matter and hasn't for a long time now. Hyperbole is all because they have nothing left to sell, no vision for America's future. Who would they be if they weren't the people hunting Donald Trump? They do not know. They've destroyed themselves trying to destroy him.The headlines fed to them supercharge their rage. These are mostly educated white women in real life, but in their fantastical imaginings of their cosplay resistance, they are warrior protectors of every oppressed group. It's all coming true. Doomsday is here.They don't like the word “hysteria” because it hearkens back to the dark ages when women's mental health issues were mislabeled that way. It's the word. It's always the word. They felt like no one could hear them scream. Out of that eternal frustration came the feminist movement, a movement now dead in its tracks.It's the word “hysteria,” like the word “woke,” like the word “illegal,” like the word woman like the word “homeless,” like the word “fat.” Change the word, change reality.These white women can't be feminists anymore because that makes them “white feminists” or “Karens.” They hate those words too.

In this episode, we share the story of Quana Big Spring, a 17-year-old from Kansas City, who remains missing. She was last seen on October 30, 2023, when she went out for a walk around 7 p.m. and never returned home. Quana, who is 5'4” and 125 pounds, has gone missing twice before—each time facing dangers that highlight the systemic failures in protecting Indigenous youth.Her case ties into the national crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP), where nearly 3,000 Native American children were reported missing to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children between 2012 and 2021. Alarmingly, 90% were labeled as “endangered runaways.” This classification often leads to a lack of urgency in their cases, leaving families to search for answers on their own.Sources:https://www.kshb.com/news/local-news/investigations/quanas-story-national-missing-and-murdered-indigenous-peoples-crisis-unfolding-in-kansas-cityhttps://www.kshb.com/news/local-news/investigations/family-belton-police-need-help-finding-missing-teenager-quana-big-springSupport the show

Callahan Walsh is an advocate for the cause of Missing and Exploited Children and is the leading voice in the fight to protect children and support families. He’s also the Executive Director of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. In 1981, Callahan’s brother Adam was kidnapped in South Florida and his remains were found two weeks after his abduction. “It's a sad story, but Adam's disappearance changed the way we look for missing kids in America. I've come to realize over time that, unfortunately, it oftentimes does take a tragedy to bring about meaningful change.” Callahan’s parents realized there was no support system or organization that aided help in distributing missing children’s posters or even searches other than local law enforcement. “They didn't know how. You know, they didn't have the training and the protocol around missing children's cases like we do now. A lot has changed since 1981.” Adam’s case captured nationwide attention, and his parents realized something needed to be done so this won’t happen to other families. They created the Adam Walsh Resource Center in Florida shortly after Adam’s death. “It started off with just a card table and a landline telephone, which has grown to become the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, an organization that's helped recover over 460 ,000 missing kids since its inception.” Listen to the podcast to hear how the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children works to prevent child exploitation, how families can protect their kids online, and what to do if the child goes missing.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A 15-year-old girl had an argument with her father about her grades. It's a scene parents all over the world are likely familiar with, and one that is usually forgotten in a day or two. But when Katya Lyne had this argument with her father, Pat, on March 21, 1997, it ended in tragedy. Within days, Katya was missing, and her father was dead. The Lyne family's world was completely turned upside down. Though police believed Katya was a runaway, they couldn't be sure that she hadn't met with foul play. Nearly 30 years later, Katya's sister, Tracy, believes her sister is still out there and still wants her to come home.

David Gonzalez, a 9-year-old boy from San Bernardino, California, disappeared on July 25, 2004, after going to retrieve a drink from his family's car parked near his grandmother's house. Despite extensive search efforts by law enforcement, volunteers, and the community, no trace of David was ever found, and his case remains unsolved. Several theories have been proposed, including the possibility of stranger abduction, family involvement, or an accidental disappearance, but no concrete evidence has emerged to support any particular theory. The lack of witnesses and physical evidence has made it challenging for investigators to determine what happened to David, leaving his family and the community with more questions than answers.In the years since his disappearance, David's case has remained a cold case, with occasional tips leading to renewed search efforts, such as the 2022 search in the San Bernardino National Forest. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children continues to keep David's case in the public eye by updating age-progressed images and appealing for information. Despite the passage of time and the limited leads, law enforcement remains committed to solving the case, emphasizing the need for any new information that could provide a breakthrough. As of now, the disappearance of David Gonzalez is a chilling reminder of the unresolved mysteries that still haunt many communities and families.The disappearance of Charles McCullar in 1975 is one of the most baffling cases in Crater Lake National Park's history. McCullar, a 19-year-old photography enthusiast, went missing during a solo hiking trip in the park's harsh winter conditions. Despite extensive search efforts, his remains were not discovered until almost two years later in a remote part of the park. The remains were found in a bizarre state, with his pants positioned as if he had vanished from within them and only a few bones scattered around. The unusual circumstances and limited evidence have led to numerous theories, including accidental death due to hypothermia, a wild animal attack, foul play, and even supernatural explanations. However, no theory has conclusively explained his disappearance, leaving the case shrouded in mystery.Today, Charles McCullar's case remains unsolved, with no new evidence emerging in recent years. The harsh environment, potential scavenging by wildlife, and remote location of his remains have complicated the investigation, and the case has since gone cold. While the National Park Service maintains records, the mystery of what happened to McCullar endures. His disappearance continues to captivate those interested in unsolved mysteries and serves as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by nature, as well as the potential for the unknown in the vast wilderness of America's national parks.(commercial at 10:07)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Few know that better than Ken Valentine, of course; a retired Secret Service agent, Ken served under three Presidents - Clinton, Bush, and Barack Obama - as each wrestled with their own challenges of office, in their own time and in their own ways. For Ken, keeping up with the President wasn't just a challenge - it was a career, full of travel, intel, and unique situations that demanded not just his utmost attention, but his life and the lives of his fellow agents if necessary. But 24 years at the Agency doesn't capture all of Ken's work - since his tenure, he's joined the Board of The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, penned a memoir about his work called 'Cheating Death: Three-Time Presidential Secret Service Agent Lives To Tell You How,' and even spent time in the fields of science and technology, joining the Board of Advisors at a new breakthrough in the field of quantum physics called 'Base Molecular Resonance Technology.' But how does somebody get into the Secret Service? What qualifications does one need to attain the position of Presidential Protection Detail for not just one, but three different sitting Presidents? And most importantly - how exactly does somebody go about cheating death?
