February 28, 1983. St. Louis, Missouri. The body of an African-American girl is found in the basement of an abandoned apartment building. She is believed to be between eight-to-eleven years old and has her hands tied behind her back and it turns out she was sexually assaulted and strangled to death before she was beheaded. Since the victim's head is never recovered and she cannot be identified, she becomes known as the “St. Louis Jane Doe”. Over the years, investigators explore a number of different leads, but they are unable to determine the girl's identity or figure out who was responsible for killing her. On this week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly”, we explore one of the most horrific and tragic stories you'll ever find about the murder of an unidentified decedent, who has also been known by such as names as “Little Jane Doe” and “Precious Hope”.If you have information about this case, please contact the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department at (314) 231-1212.Support the Show: Patreon.com/julesandashleyPatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Louis_Jane_Doehttp://www.doenetwork.org/cases/54ufmo.htmlhttps://unidentified-awareness.fandom.com/wiki/St._Louis_Jane_Doe_(1983)“Our Precious Hope: St. Louis' Little Jane Doe Revisited” Documentary

March 2, 1995. New Orleans, Louisiana. After leaving a restaurant with his date in the French Quarter, 25-year old Michael Gerardi is fatally gunned down by a trio of robbers. Weeks later, 16-year old Shareef Cousin is implicated in the crime and charged with first-degree murder. Even though Shareef seems to have an airtight alibi, Michael's date identifies him as the shooter at trial. Shareef is found guilty and becomes one of the youngest people to ever be sentenced to death, but the verdict is surrounded with controversy. It turns out the Orleans Parish District Attorney's Office committed egregious acts of prosecutorial misconduct, which included withholding exculpatory evidence, doctoring a tape-recorded interview, and illegally detaining defence witnesses. After nearly three years on death row, Shareef's conviction is overturned, but Michael Gerardi's real killers are never found. On this week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly”, we chronicle a senseless murder which led to one of the most outrageous miscarriages of justice you'll ever find.Support the show: patreon.com/julesandashleypatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shareef_Cousinhttps://www.law.umich.edu/special/exoneration/Pages/casedetail.aspx?caseid=3126http://content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,138469,00.html

July 19, 1996. Westwego, Louisiana. After leaving her apartment to walk to a supermarket, 14-year old Crystal Champagne fails to return and is found strangled to death in a wooded area the following evening. When Crystal's 22-year old step-cousin, Damon Thibodeaux, is interrogated by police, he confesses to her murder and is subsequently convicted and sentenced to death. However, Damon maintains that his confession was coerced and none of the physical evidence from the crime matches him, so after 16 years of incarceration, Damon's conviction is vacated and he is released from death row.

"December 23, 1981. Burke County, North Carolina. After leaving an office Christmas party, 19-year old Rhonda Hinson begins her drive home, but her car is soon discovered in a ditch on Mineral Springs Mountain Road about a half-mile from her residence. Rhonda's body is lying outside the vehicle and it turns out she was fatally shot by someone who fired a bullet which passed through the car's trunk and the driver's seat before it penetrated her heart. An eyewitness reports having seen an unidentified man near the vehicle's driver's side door shortly before Rhonda's body was discovered, but he cannot be identified. Years later, new information surfaces to suggest that Rhonda's death may have been caused by someone from her personal life, but the crime is never solved. For our next series of episodes on “The Path Went Chilly”, Jules and Robin discuss the unsolved murder of Rhonda Hinson.

November 21, 1979. Craig, Colorado. After spending the evening at a dance, 15-year old Marie Blee heads to a party at a mobile home park, but never returns home. Two days later, Marie's parents receive an anonymous phone call demanding a $5,000 ransom for her return. The caller is soon revealed to be 18-year old Monty Doolin, who drove Marie to the party, but he denies any involvement in her disappearance. Over the next few decades, investigators would receive contradictory accounts from several eyewitnesses about what might have happened to Marie on the night she went missing. They eventually name three persons of interest, but Marie is never found. This week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly” chronicles a very frustrating cold case about a missing teenage girl in which the full truth has yet to be uncovered.Support the show:patreon.com/julesandashleypatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldFamily Friendly True Crime Podcasts:https://podcast.feedspot.com/family_friendly_true_crime_podcasts/Additional Reading:http://charleyproject.org/case/marie-ann-bleehttp://blogs.denverpost.com/coldcases/2009/11/15/high-school-blee-vanishes-from-party-craig/943/http://extras.denverpost.com/news/news0601b.htmhttps://www.steamboatpilot.com/news/suspect-in-marie-blee-cold-case-arrested-on-suspicion-of-kidnapping-a-different-routt-county-teenager-more-than-30-years-ago/https://www.steamboatpilot.com/news/crime-courts/judge-dismisses-class-1-felony-kidnapping-case/ 

November 27, 1985. St. Augustine, Florida. While attending a neighbourhood social gathering, 12-year old Martha Jean Lambert tells her mother that she needs to take a brief trip back to their mobile home, but she never returns and is eventually reported missing. Suspicion falls on Martha's 14-year old brother, David, after he gives conflicting stories about the last time he saw his sister. 24 years later, David confesses to killing Martha and disposing of her body and police find his story to be believable enough to close the investigation. However, David soon recants his confession and since corroborating evidence cannot be found to support it, Martha continues to remain a missing person and there is still debate about what actually happened to her. In this special two-part series of “The Path Went Chilly”, Jules and I explore the unsolved disappearance of Martha Jean Lambert and in this episode, Jules will perform a statement analysis on David Lambert's confession.

June 12, 1993. Santa Clara, California. 21-year old U.S. Army Private Justin Burgwinkel leaves his girlfriend's apartment and never returns. One week earlier, Justin had gone AWOL from Fort Lewis, the post where he was stationed in Washington state, and kept hinting to his girlfriend that he was working on some sort of secret mission. Three months later, Justin's abandoned car is found at a motel in Monterey with his military dog tags and most of his personal items inside. While the Army denies that Justin was ever involved in any secret operations, no trace of him is ever found. Did Justin Burgwinkel go missing because he became involved in something sinister? Or did he suffer some sort of mental breakdown and lose his grip on reality?

November 21, 1985. Littleton, Colorado. A masked gunman enters the home of 51-year old businessman Roger Dean and forces him to tie up and blindfold his wife, D.J.. After an apparent dispute over money, the gunman fatally shoots Roger and flees the scene, but investigators find evidence to suggest that Roger may have hired the intruder himself in a failed attempt at a kidnapping-robbery scheme. Nearly five years later, D.J. receives an anonymous letter from a man claiming to be Roger's killer, who threatens to murder her daughter unless she pays him $100,000. Even after he instructs D.J. to drop off the money at a specified location, he does not show up and breaks off all contact. Were the extortionist and Roger Dean's killer actually the same person? If so, what was his motive for the crime? Did Roger have some dark secrets in his background which led to his death?

Christmas Eve, 1973. New London, Connecticut. While changing a tire, 20-year old Kevin Showalter is struck by a passing vehicle and killed in a hit-and-run. When the local police botch the investigation and make no effort to solve the case, Kevin's mother is forced to fight for answers on her own. Years later, a grand jury investigation is launched and the town's former mayor is named as the probable driver of the vehicle. However, further complications ensue when another man comes forward and confesses to the crime, creating debate about who was actually responsible for Kevin's death.

April 16, 2003. Kendall County, Texas. 54-year old Colonel Philip Shue, who works as a staff psychiatrist for the United States Air Force, leaves his residence to drive to work. Two-and-a-half hours later, Colonel Shue's car is seen driving erratically down the interstate before it crashes into some trees and Shue is found dead in the driver's seat. Even though his death is ruled to be a staged suicide, there are a number of suspicious discrepancies, as duct tape is wrapped around Shue's wrists and feet, a large gash is carved into his chest, and both of his nipples have been removed. There is suspicion that Shue's ex-wife had him tortured and killed in order to cash in on some life insurance policies, but even though a judge later makes a public ruling at a civil trial that Shue was the victim of a homicide, his official cause of death is never changed. Did Colonel Shue intentionally crash his car and take his own life, or did was killed while attempting to escape from someone who did him harm?

July 10, 1958. Monterey County, California. 26-year old First Lieutenant Paul Whipkey leaves Fort Ord, the Army base where he is stationed. When he fails to return, he is declared AWOL before being declared a “deserter” 30 days later. Five weeks after he went missing, Whipkey's abandoned car is discovered nearly 500 miles away in a remote section of Death Valley. Since Whipkey's body cannot be found, the Army believes he suffered a mental breakdown and wandered into the desert and died. However, Whipkey's family discovers troubling discrepancies to make them suspect the Army staged his disappearance. In 1982, Whipkey's status is officially changed to “died in the line of duty”, but he is never found and the full truth about what happened to him is not revealed. Could Whipkey have been recruited by the CIA and sent on a secret mission? Or was his disappearance connected to a previous assignment involving atomic testing?

October 21, 1978. Cape Otway, Australia. After leaving on a seemingly routine training flight in a Cessna 182 aircraft, 20-year old pilot Frederick Valentich vanishes without explanation over Bass Strait. During a radio transmission, Valentich describes seeing an unidentified flying object and his final words are: “It's hovering and it's not an aircraft”. When eyewitnesses report seeing strange things in the sky that night, speculation mounts that Valentich's disappearance might have been the result of an alien encounter. For our final Halloween-themed episode of “The Path Went Chilly” this month, we will be covering our very first story involving potential UFO involvement and explore whether this caused a pilot to vanish forever. Support the show: Patreon.com/julesandashleyPatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Frederick_Valentichhttps://unsolved.com/gallery/ufo-disappearance/http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/news/truth-was-out-there-after-all/news-story/2973bd131c27da0a31f4a7b8eba643fehttp://www.mufon.com/valentich-disappearance—1978.html

July 8, 1983. Winter Haven, Florida. 47-year old Nancy Drake is viciously attacked inside her church after being bludgeoned with a claw-toothed hammer during an apparent robbery. Nancy is left comatose, but when she wakes up, she has no memory of the incident. Suspicion turns towards Nancy's 45-year old husband, Thomas Drake, who took out a life insurance policy on her while conducting a secret affair with another woman. Thomas is charged with attempted murder and found guilty at trial, but shortly thereafter, Nancy claims that her memory has returned and she now recalls being attacked by another man. This leads to Thomas receiving a new trial, but he is found guilty a second time and remains incarcerated to this day. Did Thomas Drake attempt to bludgeon his wife to death with a hammer, or was someone else responsible? On this episode of “The Path Went Chilly”, Jules and Robin explore a controversial “Final Appeal” case from “Unsolved Mysteries” which did not even air on television until over 16 years after it was originally produced. Patreon.com/julesandashleyPatreon.com/thetrailwentcold

October 24, 1953. La Crosse, Wisconsin. The father of 15-year old Evelyn Hartley attempts to phone her while she is babysitting an infant child, but there is no answer at the house. After travelling there to check on her, he discovers that Evelyn has disappeared and the evidence suggests she was the victim of a violent abduction by an intruder. Days later, pieces of blood-stained clothing are found outside of town which are believed to belong to Evelyn and her abductor. Over the next several decades, there would be a number of developments, including a possible connection to notorious murderer Ed Gein and the discovery of a tape-recorded confession implicating multiple suspects in the crime, but Evelyn is never found. On this week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly”, we examine what is considered to be one of the most terrifying unsolved missing persons cases of all time.Support the Show: Patreon.com/julesandashleyPatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldSources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Evelyn_Hartleyhttp://charleyproject.org/case/evelyn-grace-hartleyhttp://jg-tc.com/news/old-tape-gives-new-clues-in-half-century-old-death/article_39f757c9-23d6-5f35-ae47-56809db3483c.html

October 8, 2009. Latimer County, Oklahoma. 44-year old Bobby Jamison, his 40-year old wife, Sherilynn Jamison, and their six-year old daughter, Madyson Jamison, leave their home to go look at a plot of land in a remote mountainous area, but never return. Eight days later, their abandoned pick-up truck is discovered on a dirt road located thirty miles from their residence, but even though the family's dog and many of their personal items are locked inside the truck and a bag containing $32,000 is hidden under the driver's seat, the Jamisons are missing. In November 2013, the skeletal remains of Bobby, Sherilynn and Madyson are discovered in a wooded area less than three miles from where their truck had been parked, but since the authorities are unable to determine an exact cause of death, no one knows what actually happened to them. Were the Jamisons killed by an outside party? Could have they have orchestrated a murder-suicide? Did they simply wander off and succumb to the elements? This week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly” explores a truly baffling case involving the disappearance and death of a family which has yet to find a conclusive resolution.

April 22, 1985. Vinita Park, Missouri. 27-year old wife and mother Linda Sherman does not show up for her shift at work and her abandoned car is soon discovered in an airport parking garage. Since Linda had recently filed for divorce from her controlling husband, Don Sherman, he is suspected of being responsible for her disappearance. Five years later, a skull is discovered outside Don's favourite restaurant and after it is kept in an evidence room for 14 months, police receive an anonymous note confirming that the skull belongs to Linda. In spite of this, Don maintains his innocence and the rest of Linda's remains are never found. Did Don Sherman murder his wife, dig up her skull and plant it outside the restaurant? If he wasn't responsible, who did kill Linda and what was their motive?

November 1, 2001. State College, Pennsylvania. After spending Halloween night partying at a club with friends, 21-year old Penn State student Cindy Song is dropped off at her apartment complex at 4:00 AM. She is never heard from again, but some of her personal items and a piece of her Halloween costume are found inside her apartment. Years later, an informant tells police that Cindy was abducted and murdered by pair of suspects named Hugo Selenski and Michael Kerkowski. A search of Selenski's property uncovers the remains of several murder victims, including Michael Kerkowski, but no trace of Cindy is found. Was Hugo Selenski actually responsible for Cindy Song's disappearance, or was it another suspect who has yet to show up on the radar?

June 23, 1997. San Francisco, California. After completing her shift at a coffee shop at the Crocker Galleria, 18-year old Kristen Modafferi vanishes without a trace. Even though co-workers report seeing Kristen with a blonde woman at the mall, this woman is never identified, and a police bloodhound tracks Kristen's scent to the edge of the Pacific Ocean at Lands End over six miles away. Weeks later, a man named Jon Onuma phones in a fake tip in which he falsely accuses two women of murdering Kristen, but even though Onuma does a number of suspicious things and multiple women accuse him of abuse, no conclusive evidence can be found to link him to Kristen's disappearance. Was Kristen Modafferi harmed by Jon Onuma? If not, then how did she wind up going missing? On this week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly”, we explore the perplexing disappearance of a young university student where all the pieces of the puzzle just don't seem to fit together.

May 7, 1988. Mountainair, New Mexico. Steve Sandlin, a 21-year old rookie with the local police department, is found dead inside the station. He has been shot in the head and since the police chief pushes forward the theory that Steve's death was either suicide or an accident, it is officially classified as “undetermined”. However, Steve's family becomes suspicious when they discover several bags of marijuana planted inside his house and learn that Steve had recently arrested a local resident who was involved in drug dealing. Information is uncovered to suggest that Steve may have been the victim of a conspiracy involving other police officers and it would be several years before his death is reclassified as a homicide. This week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly” covers our first unsolved cold case involving the death of a police officer.Additional Reading:https://unsolved.com/gallery/steve-sandlin/http://unsolvedmysteries.wikia.com/wiki/Steve_Sandlihttps://www.abqjournal.com/201338/officers-death-still-a-mystery-after-25-years-2.html

December 19, 1959. Osprey, Florida. After spending the day running errands and visiting a family friend, 25-year old Cliff Walker, his 24-year old wife Christine, and their two children, three-year old Jimmie and 23-month old Debbie, head back to their rural home in separate vehicles. The following morning, the family's bodies are discovered inside their house. They were each shot in the head before Debbie was drowned in the bathtub and Christine has also been sexually assaulted. Over the next several decades, investigators would look at a number of different suspects, but two of the most promising turn out to be Perry Smith and Richard Hickock, who were responsible for the murder of the Clutter family in Kansas one month earlier, a crime which became the subject of the iconic book, “In Cold Blood”. However, DNA testing on the deceased killers turns out to be inconclusive and there is no evidence to conclusively implicate anyone. This week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly” covers the harrowing murders of an entire family which have remained unsolved for 65 years. Patreon.com/thetrailwentcoldPatreon.com/julesandashleyAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_family_murders“In Colder Blood” by J.T.

February 8, 2005. Totowa, New Jersey. 43-year old chemist Geetha Angara shows up to work her shift at the Passaic Valley Water Commission treatment facility, but turns up missing. The following day, Geetha's body is discovered inside one of the facility's water tanks and her cause of death is determined to be drowning. A number of bruises on Geetha's neck and body suggest that she got into a violent struggle before she was placed in the tank, so her case is classified as a homicide. While police investigate a number of Geetha's co-workers, the killer is never identified. Who was responsible for murdering Geetha Angara and what was their motive? Or could her death have actually been a tragic accident caused by negligence?

February 10, 1990. Las Cruces, New Mexico. A pair of armed gunmen enter a bowling alley called the Las Cruces Bowl and bring everyone inside into the manager's office. After stealing money from the safe, the assailants fire several bullets into seven people before fleeing the scene. Three of the victims – 33-year old Ida Holguin, 34-year old Stephanie Senac, and her 12-year old daughter, Melissia Repass – manage to survive the shooting, but the four other victims – 13-year old Amy Houser, 26-year old Steven Teran, his six-year old stepdaughter Paula Holguin, and his two-year old daughter Valerie Teran – wind up dead. While the crime generates a lot of publicity, the two perpetrators are never found or identified, and there is a lot debate about whether robbery was actually the true motive for this crime. This week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly” explores the “Las Cruces Bowling Alley Massacre”, one of the most horrific and senseless crimes ever featured on the podcast. Patreon.com/thetrailwentcoldPatreon.com/julesandashleyAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Las_Cruces_bowling_alley_massacrehttps://www.cnn.com/2015/02/05/us/bowling-alley-massacre-anniversary/index.htmlhttps://www.kob.com/albuquerque-news/30-years-later-bowling-alley-massacre-still-unsolved/5523494/https://unsolved.com/gallery/bowling-alley-murder/http://www.lcsun-news.com/story/news/crime/2016/02/09/bowl-alley-massacre-case-remains-unsolved-26-years-later/80089278/https://www.foxnews.com/us/new-mexico-murders-still-a-myst

November 15, 1986. Willow Creek, California. A fire breaks out at a mobile home belonging to the family of 16-year old twin sisters, Jill and Julie Hansen. Both girls receive shotgun blasts to the stomach and while Jill dies at the scene, Julie passes away at the hospital one month later. Since evidence implicates their 21-year old half-brother, Donny Hansen, he is charged with arson and murder and goes on trial for the crime. However, since eyewitnesses reported seeing two other unidentified men near the scene that night, this creates enough reasonable doubt for the jury to acquit Donny. Was Donny Hansen truly innocent of this crime or did he get away with murder? Could other suspects have been involved in what happened? On this week's episode of the “The Path Went Chilly”, we explore a bizarre murder case which tore an entire family apart.Patreon.com/thetrailwentcoldPatreon.com/julesandashleyAdditional Reading:https://unsolved.com/gallery/jill-and-julie-hansen/https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Jill_and_Julie_Hansen

July 11, 1988. Walnut Creek, California. Lester Garnier, a 30-year old vice officer with the San Francisco Police Department, is found shot to death inside his car in a shopping center parking lot. Eyewitnesses recall seeing at least two unidentified blonde women in the parking lot the previous night and speculation mounts that Lester's murder might be connected to his involvement in the recent high-profile bust of a teenage prostitution ring. Twenty years later, authorities announce that a partial fingerprint from the crime scene has been matched to Catherine Kuntz, a Scottish national with an extensive criminal history, but there is not enough evidence to file charges. Was Kuntz responsible for Lester Garnier's murder? If so, what was her motive? Were other people involved in this crime? What was Lester doing in that parking lot to begin with?

May 12, 2000. The South Pole, Antarctica. While working at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, 32-year old Australian astrophysicist Rodney Marks becomes seriously ill before he dies. Rodney's death is initially assumed to be natural causes, but when his body is transported to New Zealand months later, an autopsy reveals that he died from acute methanol poisoning. The New Zealand Police attempt to launch an investigation, but run into jurisdictional issues and since Rodney's American-based employers prove to be uncooperative, a coronial inquest fails to reach a conclusion about how Rodney died. Was Rodney Marks' methanol poisoning a tragic accident or was he the victim of foul play?

June 16, 2009. Rosses Point, Ireland. The body of a man who appears to be in his late fifties or early sixties is found washed up on a beach and his cause of death is believed to be acute cardiac arrest. Four days earlier, the man had arrived in the nearby town of Sligo and checked into a hotel under the name “Peter Bergmann”, but it turns out this name was fake and he carries no identification. Investigators believe that he travelled to Ireland from another country and use CCTV footage to track his movements in the days prior to his death. They theorize that he spent time gradually disposing of items which might have provided a clue to his identity, but no one ever comes forward who recognizes this man. On this week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly”, we explore a unique mystery involving an unidentified decedent known as “Peter Bergmann”.Patreon.com/julesandashleyPatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Bergmann_casehttps://www.irishtimes.com/life-and-style/people/the-unsolved-mystery-of-peter-bergmann-1.3923308https://www.vice.com/en/article/8xwkdg/peter-bergmann-case-crime-sligohttp://www.irishcentral.com/news/The-man-who-went-to-Ireland-to-disappear-VIDEO.htmlhttps://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/inverness/2410021/north-forensic-artist-provides-assistance-in-bid-to-solve-11-year-mystery-of-peter-bergmann/https://www.independent.ie/regionals/sligochampion/news/mystery-mans-last-surprise-27570679.htmlhttps://www.lemonde.fr/m-moyen-format/article/2015/03/12/l-homme-qui-voulait-effacer-sa-vie_4592522_4497271.html
