Today's guest is someone we've admired for years, ABC 20/20 correspondent Chris Connelly. Chris has been telling powerful, human-centered stories for decades, from his days profiling the world's biggest stars at Rolling Stone and MTV to his in-depth sports reporting at ESPN to his current work at ABC, where he covers major news events and compelling true crime cases. He's covered everything from the Olympics to high-profile criminal cases, always with that trademark mix of insight, respect, and depth. And now, he's the host of Cold Blooded: Mystery in Alaska, a gripping new podcast about the killing of Dr. Eric Garcia in Ketchikan, Alaska. We had such a great time talking with Chris about the case, his career, his approach to storytelling, and why empathy matters when telling stories like this one. Follow Chris @chriscconnelly on Instagram. Listen to Cold Blooded: Mystery in Alaska, out now wherever you get your podcasts. You can catch it weekly on Tuesdays in its own dedicated feed Weekly on Wednesdays in the 20/20 podcast feed.
In March 2017, the quiet Alaskan town of Ketchikan was rocked by the sudden death of beloved surgeon Dr. Eric Garcia. Found in his home under suspicious circumstances, his death would devolve into a mystery that was truly stranger than fiction. Journalist Chris Connelly, host of Cold Blooded: Mystery in Alaska, joined me to discuss his investigation and shared what it was like to walk the streets of Ketchikan, speak with Dr. Garcia's grieving loved ones, and sit face-to-face with the detectives who brought his killer to justice. From Alaska to Washington, Chris told me all about the twists and turns in a case that, on the surface, had seemed so straightforward, and how a remote community still grapples with the loss of one of its own.You can hear all about the murder of Dr. Eric Garcia, including details not shared today, by listening to Cold Blooded: Mystery in Alaska every Tuesday, wherever you get your podcasts.Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.com

In this newscast: Heavy rains and flooding in Southeast Alaska triggered a series of small landslides in Ketchikan yesterday; Cancelled federal funding and grants have stalled the construction of a Juneau affordable housing project for at least a year. The project is aimed specifically at people in recovery from substance misuse and the delay means the dozens of people it could have housed will have to find another option; Many communities along Alaska's southern coast are dependent on state ferries to get around and to fuel their economies. But those ferries move thanks to teams of on-board engineers. And those engine room employees say they are critically understaffed and the only solution is more state funding or fewer sailings; Alaska volcano researchers say seismic activity around Mount Spurr has continued to decline over the last month, but the closest active volcano to the state's population centers could still erupt.
Tammy and Kim, the dynamic mom and daughter duo, moved to Ketchikan a few years ago. Ketchikan is quintessential southeast Alaska; smalltown living, lots of tourists with cruise ships, access to endless outdoor activities (hiking, hunting, fishing, whale watching, etc.), and a slower pace of life.
