Step into the chilling world of unresolved mysteries with "5 True Crime Cases Still Unsolved in 2025." These five haunting stories remain clouded in uncertainty, leaving families and communities yearning for answers and justice.

In October 2023, a 40-year-old man armed with semi-automatic rifle opened fire inside a bowling alley and later at a nearby restaurant in the small city of Lewiston, Maine. Between the two incidents, 18 people died and 13 were injured. Disturbingly, the Lewiston shooting was one for more than 650 mass shootings in the United States in 2023, defined as a shooting event with four or more victims. With the U.S. continuing to experience hundreds of these incidents every year, police, fire, EMS, and organizations like the American Red Cross are refining how they prepare and respond to these incidents.  On today's podcast, we talk with John Montes, who led the Red Cross's response and recovery efforts in Lewiston and was also instrumental in developing NFPA 3000, the standard for Active Shooter/Hostile Response program. I talked to Montes about the complexities of the Lewiston response, what lessons were learned, and what safety agencies should be doing now to prepare for mass shooting incidents.  LINKS Learn more about the American Red Cross Read up on the creation of NFPA 3000, and one city's journey to implementing it.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, for Friday's Headline Brief as he covers the top stories shaping America and the world. Trump Sues Wall Street Journal Over Epstein Birthday Letter Allegation President Trump files a lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal and News Corp over a report claiming he drew a suggestive birthday card for Jeffrey Epstein in 2003. Trump calls the letter fake and denies the language or drawing style matches his. Bryan explains this is what prompted Trump to denounce the Epstein case earlier this week and argues the leak may be tied to fired DOJ official Maurene Comey. Congress Moves to Slash Billions from Global Aid and Public Broadcasting The House is expected to approve a rescissions bill that cuts $9 billion from foreign aid and media outlets like NPR and PBS. Democrats call the cuts cruel, while Trump's budget chief confirms more clawback bills are coming. Thailand Ups Tariff Offer to Avoid Trade Penalties Thailand increases its offer to allow 90% of U.S. goods tariff-free, part of Trump's broader strategy to open global markets for American products. The White House has not yet said if it will accept the revised deal. 93% Tariff on Chinese Graphite Set to Boost U.S. Mining The U.S. announces steep tariffs on graphite imports from China, a critical mineral for batteries and aerospace. The move is expected to revive domestic projects in Alaska, Alabama, and Louisiana that have long struggled to compete with Chinese state-subsidized graphite. Trump Halts Plan to Remove Columbia River Hydropower Dams Reversing a Biden-era decision, Trump defends the Pacific Northwest's dams from removal. The decision preserves 24/7 electricity for AI data centers, agriculture, and irrigation, while ensuring continued barge access for inland cities like Lewiston, Idaho. Coca-Cola Drops Corn Syrup Under Health Secretary RFK Jr.'s Push The company will shift from high-fructose corn syrup to sugar, a change long advocated by Health Secretary Bobby Kennedy Jr. Farmers in the Midwest worry about lost income, while Florida and Brazil sugar producers stand to gain. Ice Cream Industry to Remove Synthetic Dyes by 2027 Forty major ice cream brands will eliminate petroleum-derived colorants, but the transition will take years due to the farming cycles of natural color sources like beets. New Delays for Air Force One Due to Security Clearance Issues Skilled workers at Boeing's Seattle plant are failing security screenings, slowing production of the next presidential jets. Even the Qatar 747, once floated as a backup, will need similar vetting. Chinese Investors Buying Up U.S. Homes in Record Numbers Chinese buyers spent $13.7 billion on U.S. homes this year, up 83 percent, mostly in Democrat-led states like California. Bryan raises concerns about affordability and national security. China Pushes to Control Panama Canal Deal, Trump May Respond Beijing threatens to block a port sale in Panama unless its state-owned firm COSCO gets a share. Trump is reportedly furious and may use military pressure to prevent Chinese involvement in canal operations. Ukraine Proposes Drone-for-Weapons Swap with U.S. President Zelenskyy offers U.S. access to battlefield-hardened drone technology in exchange for American missile systems. Trump is reportedly intrigued, and Bryan calls it a win-win—though argues we should get the tech for free. Study Links Bright Evening Light to Heart Risk Australian researchers find that excessive nighttime light exposure increases the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and heart failure by up to 45 percent. Bryan urges listeners to shut off devices before bed—or just go full Amish. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

1976 - Lewiston, Maine. In the early hours of a November morning in 1976, Dorothy “Dotty” Milliken left her home  to do some late-night laundry in Lewiston, Maine. She never made it back. A local paperboy found her body just before dawn, outside Beal's Laundromat. She had been beaten to death in what police called a frenzied attack. Tonia was just seven when her mother was killed—a traumatic loss that reshaped the course of her family's future. In the years since, she's worked to understand what happened. Now, a new book revisits the case, pulling together decades of theories, suspects, new interviews, and questions to form a possible picture of that night. But police are still missing a critical piece of the puzzle: the person that knows who killed Dorothy Milliken. If you have any information on the murder of Dorothy Milliken, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit South at ⁠(207)624-7076⁠ x9. The family is offering a $10k reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for this crime.

1976 - Lewiston, Maine. On a cold November morning in 1976, 27-year-old Dorothy Milliken—Dotty to those who loved her—was found bludgeoned to death outside Beal's Laundromat in Lewiston, ME. A paperboy made the grim discovery around 4:30 a.m. She'd gone out to do some late-night laundry, and while the city still slept, someone ended her life. Her killer has never been caught. As the years passed, Dorothy's case went cold. But long before her name joined Maine's growing list of unsolved murders, Dorothy Rancourt Milliken was living a quiet, honest life. She was a veteran. A survivor. A mother. This is her story.  This is part 1 of 2. Part 2 will be released on June 17th.  If you have any information on the murder of Dorothy Milliken, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit South at (207)624-7076 x9. The family is offering a $10k reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for this crime.

“Students will often refer to voice lessons, to choir rehearsal, as therapy. I felt that there was something to that. I wanted to make the connection between individual therapy and voice lessons and group therapy and the choral rehearsal.

EPISODE 693: Behind the Mitten Road Trip -- Clare to LewistonIn this episode of "Behind the Mitten," hosts John Gonzalez and Amy Sherman celebrate a decade of exploring Michigan's hidden gems. They embark on a road trip adventure, visiting various local businesses, including Buccilli's Pizza in Clare, R & J's Best Choice Marketplace in Houghton Lake, and Jack's Place in Roscommon, where they highlight the importance of community and local flavors. The episode also features the Lewiston Hotel & Bar, showcasing its award-winning fish fry and new menu items, emphasizing the unique experiences Michigan has to offer.Segment 1: Co-owner Shari Buccilli of Buccilli's Pizza in Clare tells the story how her husband's family moved from Detroit and started the award-winning pizzeria in 1973 with only $1,500. Segment 2: Our next stop is at R&J's Best Choice Marketplace of Houghton Lake where we meet Joycelyn Alexander, who tells us more about this "Pure Michigan" destination that features products from all over the state, including a variety of their top-selling Feta cheese. Amy calls herself "a Feta girl" and wants to enter the annual contest in December to win a year's worth of Feta. Last year they sold 14,730 pounds of the cheese.Segment 3: A few years ago we traveled all over the state looking for great fish frys. We found one at Jack's Place in Roscommon, known for fresh Alaskan cod and a cool A-frame bar. The fish is never frozen and flown in every week. We stopped in again, only to discover that Amy happen to know new co-owner Jason Christensen, who is originally from Amy's hometown in downriver Detroit. We learned more about how Jason and his partner Ashley Reynolds came to own the bar. And of course, we had to try the fish again. It was fabulous. Segment 4: Another one of our favorite fish frys was at the Lewiston Hotel & Bar, and it, too has new ownership. It was our final stop for the show. We sat at the bar and talked to Troy Willett, who tells us how he and his wife, Crissy, bought the bar a few years ago and updated it with a new menu, including gyros, poutine, more Mexican food items and the "Lewie Burger," a half-pound cheese burger that has become a top-seller. But the perch fish fry still brings them in because it's still the same, Troy said. They also offer 12 modest, very clean hotel rooms, making it a great place to spend the night. Prices are very afforable.That completes our Clare to Lewiston road trip!Chapters00:00 - Celebrating a Decade of Michigan Adventures01:14 - Road Trip Excitement: The Journey Begins02:38 - Exploring Clare: St. Patrick's Day Festivities04:01 - Buccilli's Pizza (Clare): A Local Favorite10:30 - Michigan Maple Festival: Sweet Traditions12:51 - R & J's Best Choice Market (Houghton Lake): Michigan Goods Galore20:57 - Jack's Place (Roscommon): Fresh Fish and Community Vibes35:41 - The Lewiston Hotel (Lewiston): A New Chapter in HospitalityLearn more about Behind the Mitten at amyandgonzo.com.

L'agence en ligne Alterpresse estime qu'il ne suffirait que de quelques heures avant que les gangs armés ne s'emparent totalement de Port-au-Prince. 85% de la capitale haïtienne est aux mains des gangs, et seuls quelques quartiers sont encore épargnés. « Nous sommes livrés à nous-mêmes », peut-on lire dans l'article du Miami Herald. Notre consœur Jacqueline Charles a recueilli des témoignages édifiants qui décrivent une situation « insupportable depuis ces deux dernières semaines ».  Selon Pierre Esperance, un défenseur des droits humains à Port-au-Prince, « la ville peut tomber à tout moment ».(AlterPresse | Port-au-Prince en flammes, le pouvoir en fête en Haïti. Où est le président du Cpt ?)La journaliste décrit une situation terrible, « une ville prise entre les hurlements et les tirs d'armes, les gangs armés et l'exode massif de la population, entre l'anxiété et le silence ». Les quartiers sont vidés un par an, les maisons brûlées, les commerces pillés, et 60 000 personnes ont fui en 1 mois, selon l'Organisation Internationale pour la Migration. Des habitants qui ne savent pas où aller et sont livrés à eux-mêmes.Dans le Nouvelliste, le rédacteur en chef Frantz Duval s'interroge : « que faire quand on ne peut rien faire ? ». Et il poursuit : « Chaque Port-au-Princien, ceux qui vivent dans les derniers quartiers non encore attaqués par les gangs, se pose cette question en échafaudant des plans, en se demandant combien de temps il leur reste avant de connaître le même sort que les autres ». « Ailleurs, pas un mot, pas un sit-in, pas une manifestation », constate-t-il. Les figures de la diaspora haïtienne sont aux abonnés absents, même chose pour l'opposition, silencieuse elle aussi, tout comme la communauté internationale. Aujourd'hui, « même l'ingérence est en vacances », selon Frantz Duval, alors que faire ? « Rien et attendre ». « Ce n'est pas du défaitisme » précise-t-il, « mais une façon de cultiver l'espoir et l'espérance ».Sur le terrain, un policier kenyan, membre de la Mission multinationale de sécurité a été blessé à Kenscoff lors d'un échange de tirs. La situation sécuritaire dans ce quartier de le capitale haïtienne « demeure préoccupante », peut-on lire dans Gazette Haïti. Le journal rappelle qu'il y a quelques semaines, un militaire haïtien avait déjà perdu la vie à Kenscoff. Et l'espoir d'un « retour à l'ordre s'amenuise au sein de la population de jour en jour ».Dans ce contexte, les autorités sont accusés de regarder ailleurs et l'agence en ligne Alterpresse (AlterPresse | Port-au-Prince en flammes, le pouvoir en fête en Haïti. Où est le président du Cpt ?) se pose la question, où est le président du Conseil présidentiel de transition ? Celui-ci est accusé de laisser le chaos s'installer, « alors que Port-au-Prince agonise sous l'emprise des gangs, que Delmas 32 lutte pour sa survie et que les quartiers tombent comme des dominos », souligne l'éditorialiste Pierre Legros. « Fritz Alphonse Jean, le président du CPT, préfère s'envoler en hélicoptère pour participer aux festivités de la Saint-Joseph à Fort-Liberté. »Au milieu de ce chaos, la culture résiste encore. Le festival international de jazz de Port-au-Prince, le PAPJAZZ, fait son retour. La 18è édition doit débuter ce jeudi (20 mars 2025), jusqu'à samedi. Initialement prévu en janvier, le festival a dû être reporté en raison du climat sécuritaire. Mais malgré les défis, la Fondation Haïti Jazz reste fidèle à son engagement : montrer une autre image d'Haïti, accompagner les artistes, faire rayonner la culture et prouver que, même dans les conditions actuelles, la musique et l'art peuvent encore rassembler. Milena Sandler, la directrice générale de la Fondation Haïti Jazz s'est confiée au correspondant de RFI à Port-au-Prince, Peterson Luxama.►L'entretien est à retrouver dans son intégralité dans la version audio de ce podcast. Aux États-Unis, l'administration Trump accusée de briser des familles de migrantsAlors que le secrétaire d'État américain, Marco Rubio, a menacé le Venezuela de nouvelles « sanctions sévères » s'il ne reprenait pas ses ressortissants expulsés des États-Unis, les familles de migrants expulsés témoignent.Dans le Boston Globe, on peut lire l'histoire d'un jeune migrant, Jose âgé de 17 ans, sans papier, arrêté alors qu'il se rendait à son travail sur un chantier dans la ville de Lewiston, dans le Maine. Sa mère a reçu un appel d'un agent de l'immigration lui expliquant que son fils allait être expulsé au Salvador. « Si vous voulez, vous pouvez vous aussi vous rendre et être envoyé là-bas, mais il sera expulsé de toutes façons », a poursuivi l'officier de police, alors que sa mère dans un sanglot explique que l'administration Trump veut détruire les familles de migrants. Depuis son arrestation, la famille de Joe n'ose plus sortir de chez elle de peur d'être elle aussi expulsée.Ses parents sont aux États-Unis depuis une dizaine d'années et les deux plus jeunes de la famille des citoyens américains. Jose est en transit dans un centre de rétention pour mineurs à New York, à près de 500 kilomètres de sa famille, « c'est effrayant, je n'ai jamais vu ça », témoigne son avocat. Mexico : les règles changent pour les corridasMexico vient de changer les règles concernant les corridas : il sera désormais interdit de blesser ou de tuer le taureau. Cette mesure a été approuvée hier, par la quasi-totalité des législateurs du gouvernement de la ville. Elle devrait entrer en vigueur d'ici quelques mois. Depuis des années, la ville de Mexico tergiverse sur ce sujet. Les corridas avaient été interdites une première fois en 2022 puis la décision avait été révoquée par la Cour suprême, un an plus tard.Depuis, la tauromachie a continué légalement dans la capitale mexicaine, au sein de la monumentale place des taureaux, la plus grande arène de corrida du monde qui peut accueillir 50 000 places.Cette-fois ci, il s'agit donc d'une sorte de compromis, mais qui ne plaît pas aux pro-corridas. Ils ont manifesté et bloqué le centre de la capitale. Gwendolina Duval était sur place pour RFI. L'actualité des OutremerDeux radars et un scanner doivent arriver prochainement en Martinique.

The wives walked last week now it's up to Matt and Jethro to see if they can get there faster! Listen and find out how they do!

Executive producer Raney Aronson-Rath discusses Frontline's investigative journalism, and its collaboration with Maine Public and the Portland Press Herald on "Breakdown in Maine," about the Lewiston shootings

The wives are back for an EPIC two-part episode. Emma and Kristy join Matt and Jethro for an interview from Alex and then a walk all their own! How will they do? Find out!

Eric in Lewiston, Maine, asks how to use last year's data to create and accurate sales plans and evaluate software tools (like CRMs and ZoomInfo) to make those goals happen. Sales planning is vital—without a roadmap, you're just hoping your revenue targets magically come to life. If you haven't defined clear performance metrics—like call activity, lead generation, conversion rates, or daily prospecting targets—then you don't really have a plan. You have a wish list. Looking Back at Last Year: Which Metrics Matter? Eric wanted to know which metrics from the previous year he and his team should be analyzing to inform this year's targets. The short answer? All of them, if they are metrics that matter to your business goals. Consider: Conversion Rates from Inbound Leads Speed to Lead (How fast are you following up?) Outbound Touches vs. Opportunities in Pipeline Opportunities-to-Proposal Ratios Proposal-to-Closed Deals Ratios Upsells, Cross-Sells, and Expansion Deals By mapping out how each step in your funnel converts to the next—calls to first appointments, first appointments to proposals, proposals to closed deals—you can see exactly where to focus in the new sales year. Maybe you need more first appointments. Maybe you need to tighten up your proposals so more of them convert. Or maybe you're missing upsell opportunities with existing clients. Data points you to the gaps. Pro Tip: Once you understand your ratios, you can decide if you're aiming to improve them by, say, 25% (a stretch goal) or if you're reaching higher. However, be careful not to “fix” one area and inadvertently break another. Success in sales is about balance across the entire funnel. Choosing the Right CRM: Beware of Overkill Eric also mentioned his team's struggle with an outdated CRM that's not built for strong tracking. As they look ahead, they're weighing big guns like Salesforce. But here's the deal: Salesforce is an excellent platform—if you're a larger organization with the bandwidth, budget, and complexity to justify it. For smaller teams (like Eric's with just two salespeople), adopting a massive enterprise CRM can be overkill. Zoho, Pipedrive, Nimble, and HubSpot are great alternatives for small-to-midsize sales teams. They're user-friendly, more cost-effective, and far simpler to deploy. The rule of thumb? Choose a CRM that matches your current size and selling process. The last thing you want is to waste months configuring a powerhouse system that nobody uses because it's too big or too confusing. Making Sense of “Big Data” Tools Like ZoomInfo Eric's final question was about whether to invest in a data-intelligence tool (e.g., ZoomInfo, Apollo, LeadIQ) to identify new leads and tap into “intent data.” My take: ZoomInfo: This is what we use at Sales Gravy, and we love it. It delivers reliable data, helps us expand into new verticals, multi-thread inside target accounts, and dramatically speeds up our list building. Intent Data: Tools like ZoomInfo can show you who's actively looking for solutions like yours. While it's not perfect, it can be a game-changer for prioritizing outreach to the prospects most likely to buy. Beware the Shelfware Trap: If you invest in a high-end data platform, make sure you have a solid plan (and the discipline) to use it consistently. It's easy to drop serious money on software and then let it collect dust. Pro Tip: Start with a limited number of “power users” on your team who will commit to mastering the tool. Then expand usage as you integrate it into your sales workflow. How We Made It Work: A Cautionary Tale We've been using ZoomInfo for years. Early on, we blew through a lot of money because we didn't fully implement it. It wasn't until we got serious—trained our people, integrated it with our CRM, and held each other accountable—that we started seeing results. Today, ZoomInfo is essential to how we prospect, grow pipeline,

In this moving Plot Twist episode of The Light Watkins Show, Light revisits the pivotal moment that forever changed Jessica Janzen's life. Jessica recounts how a reluctant volunteer experience at her church led her to care for two children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA)—a rare genetic condition that limits physical abilities but not cognitive sharpness. What started as a Sunday morning act of service became a profound journey of love, gratitude, and transformation.Years later, Jessica's world was turned upside down when her second child, Lewiston, was diagnosed with the very condition she had grown to understand through Shawn and Shanea, the siblings she had once cared for. Jessica shares the raw emotions of navigating SMA, from daily caregiving challenges to the deep lessons it taught her about resilience, joy, and gratitude for life's simplest blessings.This conversation explores the power of following life's nudges, the beauty of showing up for others, and how seemingly small actions can lead to profound impact. Jessica also opens up about her relationship with her husband, Ronnie—better known as “Hot Ronnie”—and how love and faith carried them through life's greatest challenges.Whether you're navigating uncertainty, seeking inspiration to embrace gratitude, or looking to connect with your purpose, Jessica's story will remind you of the power of leaning into discomfort, trusting your instincts, and finding joy in the unexpected.Tune in for an episode filled with heartfelt lessons and unforgettable insights.Send us a text message.

On April 25, 2010 at around 10 pm, 31-year-old Shane Workman told his dad he was going to run to Sheetz, a gas station near their home in Lewistown, Pennsylvania. But Shane never made it there. Mike and his partner, Cindy Workman, didn't realize anything was wrong, and went on a camping trip the next morning. It wouldn't be until they returned that they realized their son had never come home after his trip to the gas station. A search party was formed immediately, but despite many tips, including the names of people who may have been involved in Shane's disappearance, Mike says that Lewistown Police quickly lost interest. After seven years, Shane is still missing, but his family is still fighting for Shane and for justice.Anyone with information regarding Shane Workman's disappearance is urged to contact Detective Jeromy Poff with the Lewistown Police Department at 814-445-4104.Buy the ebook! - And Then They Were Gone: True Stories of Those Who Went Missing and Never Came HomeSubmit a caseFind us everywhereGet episodes early and ad-free on PatreonMerch storeFor a full list of our sources, please visit our blogBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/and-then-they-were-gone--5360779/support.
