On an unseasonably chilly morning of June 3, 1990, a man tapped on the door of an unfamiliar car parked in front of his home in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Through the window, he could see a blonde woman in the passenger seat slumped over toward the driver's side of the car. He assumed she was drunk and passed out, but when he opened the car door to wake her up, he quickly realized that she was dead. Rattled, he quickly closed the door and immediately called the police. The woman was later identified as 21-year-old Beth Buege. Born and raised in Milwaukee she worked in a jewelry store and was an aspiring model. More than 30 years later, her killer has never been caught. And her family still seeks justice. If you have any information on the murder of Beth Buege call The Milwaukee Police Department at (414) 933-4444 or call the Cold Case Unit, (414) 935-1212.

In episode two of our National Case Closed Project: Supporting Best Practices in Investigation season, Just Science sat down with Fabio Sanchez, Crime Gun Intelligence Sergeant at the City of Miami Police Department, Yaneisy Delgado, Intelligence Analyst at the Miami-Dade Police Department, and Kevin Armbruster, retired Lieutenant with the Milwaukee Police Department, to discuss how their agencies utilize ballistics evidence and cross-agency collaboration to improve gun violence investigations in the greater Miami area. When a fatal or non-fatal shooting occurs, investigators can submit ballistics evidence to the National Integrated Ballistics Information Network, or NIBIN, which will generate potential associations with other firearm cases in the area. Law enforcement agencies in Miami, Florida have developed best practices for utilizing NIBIN and other information-sharing techniques to drastically reduce gun violence rates in one of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States. Listen along as Fabio, Yaneisy, and Kevin describe their agencies' methods for quickly and effectively entering data into NIBIN, using social media and other analyses to track patterns in case evidence, and the importance of information sharing and collaboration for preventing gun violence.

Alexis Patterson walked to school on May 3, 2002, but she never made it into the building. Her school didn't notify her parents of the seven-year-old's absence, so no one knew she was missing until school let out that afternoon. Her frantic parents, Ayanna and LaRon Bourgeois called Milwaukee Police, and a search began. But despite being only seven years old, Alexis was treated as a runaway. It would be over a week before police publicly said that they suspected foul play in her disappearance. As the days turned into months, which turned into years, the hope of finding Alexis alive diminished for many– but not her mother. She believes that her daughter is out there somewhere. And in 2016, it seemed she was proven right, when an Ohio man came to her and said that he knew Alexis. In fact, he had been married to her.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Alexis Patterson, please call the Milwaukee Police Department at 414-935-7401.

You may know her as “the other missing girl.” On May 3, 2002, seven-year-old Alexis Patterson walked the half a block to Hi-Mount Elementary School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, accompanied by her step-father, LaRon Bourgeois. LaRon left Alexis at the crosswalk, as the crossing guard accompanied her across the street to school. But when the final bell rang that afternoon, Alexis Patterson wasn't among the children to rush out of school and head home. She was never seen again. While the little girl's disappearance was big news in Milwaukee, the news was soon overshadowed by that of another missing girl: Elizabeth Smart. Elizabeth was found nine months after her abduction, but Alexis remains missing 20 years later.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Alexis Patterson, please call the Milwaukee Police Department at 414-935-7401.

May 3, 2002. Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Seven-year old Alexis Patterson is walked to school by her stepfather, who claims that he last sees her crossing the street and heading in the direction of the school playground. Even though numerous students report seeing Alexis crying on the playground that day, she never attends any of her classes and is eventually reported missing. Over the years, investigators explore a number of potential leads and direct some suspicion towards Alexis' family, but there are no conclusive answers about what happened to her. Was Alexis Patterson the victim of a stranger abduction or do the real answers lie closer to home? On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore an unsolved missing children's case which recently passed its 20-year anniversary.

On the twentieth anniversary of Alexis Patterson's disappearance we check in the Milwaukee Police Department about the case. Then, examine why some missing persons cases get more attention than others. We look at the documentary, Anonymous Sister, which explores the filmmaker's family's struggle with addiction. Plus, meet the Milwaukee woman behind All Ways Black, a social media book community.

For 21 years, a serial killer terrorized a north side neighborhood in Milwaukee, often times working right under the nose of the Milwaukee Police Department. Suspected of killing at least 10 women, ultimately convicted of 7, Walter E. Ellis stalked those living in the seedy underbelly of the Cream City, preying on those often most vulnerable, struggling themselves to make a life. Beginning in 1986, young women began turning up murdered in numerous abandoned properties, most of them strangled, in a two mile radius in north Milwaukee, leading to the residents of the area to suspect a serial killer was on the loose. Unwilling to endorse the one-killer theory, police struggled to crack the case, leading to accusations of not taking it seriously, as the majority of the victims were African-American and usually suspected of being sex workers. As DNA technology advanced, and a task force was formed, police began to hone in on a suspect, one which had been in their midst for decades, working with them as an informant, incarcerated numerous times, and repeatedly given leniency for unknown reasons. Scott and Mickey discuss this story which entails missed opportunities by the Milwaukee Police Department, Department of Corrections, Department of Justice, and the state legislature which could have curtailed these murders from happening and literally saved lives, along with the larger social and economic issues at play which helped create a monster like Walter E. Ellis, though also sadly dismisses those he took away from us.     Walter E. Ellis during a court appearance . 2 children of Irene Smith, a victim of Ellis, murdered in 1992.

My special guest is author Robyn Marharaj who's here to discuss the fascinating interrogation of serial killer Jeffery Dahmer by detective Patrick "Pat" Kennedy. You can get her book Grilling Dahamer: The Interrogation of the "Milwaukee Cannibal" on Amazon. In the late hours of July 22, 1991, Detective Patrick "Pat" Kennedy of the Milwaukee Police Department was asked to respond to a possible homicide. Little did he know that he would soon be delving into the dark mind of one of America's most notorious serial killers, the "Milwaukee Cannibal" Jeffrey Dahmer. As the media clamored for details, Kennedy spent the next six weeks, sixteen hours a day, locked in an interrogation room with Dahmer. There the 31-year-old killer described in lurid detail how he lured several young men to his apartment where he strangled, sexually assaulted, dismembered, and in some cases, cannibalized his victims. In GRILLING DAHMER: The Interrogation of "The Milwaukee Cannibal" the reader is taken on a horrifying tour into the mind of evil as Kennedy patiently, meticulously, listened to unspeakable horrors so that a monster would be taken off the streets forever.   It's super easy to access our archives!   Here's how:   iPhone Users: Access Mysterious Radio from Apple Podcasts and become a subscriber there or if you want access to even more exclusive content join us on Patreon.   Android Users: Enjoy over 800 exclusive member-only posts to include ad-free episodes, case files and more when you join us on Patreon.    Copy and Paste our link in a text message to all your family members and friends!

Parker-Bell fired a .40 caliber semiautomatic pistol three times inside the station — injuring no one — after he asked an officer working the front counter for information relating to Keishon Thomas, 20, who died in a holding cell at the same facility two days earlier, the complaint said.

John DiTrapani rose to prominence within the Milwaukee Mafia in the early 1950s. He was considered to be one of the “Young Turks”, which also included Jack Enea and Frank LaGalbo, who had angled to take over leadership from Milwaukee Mafia boss John Alioto. Under Alioto's rule, the muscling of gamblers and legitimate businesses stopped, but internal dissent continued. DiTrapani spread the word that he would pay for “hits” in order to get the leadership role. This would lead to his eventual death, Enea's death, and cause LaGalbo to lose stature and to transfer his mafia membership. John DiTrapani was murdered outside the LaTosca Cafe around midnight on the night of March 17, 1954. His bullet-riddled body was found behind the wheel of his light blue 1952 Cadillac sedan at 425 North Van Buren Street in Milwaukee. Frank LaGalbo would later tell an informant that DiTrapani was killed because he tipped off police that the Chicago Outfit was behind a gambling deal that took a large sum of money from oil baron Robert Roman. This alleged motive was never proven, and the murder remains unprosecuted to this day. The murder was no doubt a mob hit, and it was the catalyst that caused the Milwaukee Police Department to look into the Milwaukee Mafia and Milwaukee's Italian-related crime more closely than ever before. The investigation uncovered a lot of information about the Milwaukee Mafia and John DiTrapani's involvement. It also found that DiTrapani was shady in his private life, too.
