Podcast appearances and mentions of Prince George

Elora Ceaser was born in Prince George, British Columbia, and spent six formative years living in Australia before returning to her hometown in 2017. Her early years were marked by a love for sports and a strong sense of community. While in high school, she was an active member of both the volleyball and basketball teams, finding joy and confidence through athletic competition and teamwork.However, her high school journey took a difficult turn when she faced bullying that deeply affected her well-being. Ultimately, Elora made the tough decision to leave in-person schooling in order to protect her mental health.While this choice helped her find a more supportive learning environment, it also meant letting go of her beloved team sports and the camaraderie they offered. It was a challenging period that tested her resilience but also sparked a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.Throughout her life, Elora has shared a close bond with her father, especially through their mutual love of cinema. Some of her fondest memories are of evenings spent watching martial arts movies together—an experience that not only strengthened their relationship but also inspired her admiration for discipline, strength, and storytelling.Currently, Elora is in her third year at the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC), working diligently toward her goal of becoming a teacher. Passionate about education and personal empowerment, she hopes to one day create classrooms that are safe, inclusive, and inspiring—spaces where all students feel seen and supported, especially those who may be struggling in silence.In the summer of 2022, Elora discovered Taekwondo, a sport that would come to redefine her life. What began as a way to stay active quickly blossomed into something much deeper. The Taekwondo community welcomed her with open arms, offering not just physical training but a profound sense of belonging. Through the friendships she's formed and the lessons she's learned on the mat, Elora has gained confidence, focus, and emotional strength. Taekwondo has become more than a sport for her—it's a second family and a powerful source of growth, healing, and purpose.Elora's journey is one of quiet strength, resilience, and transformation. Whether in the classroom, on the mat, or in her day-to-day life, she continues to embrace challenges with courage and compassion, driven by a deep desire to uplift others and lead by example.

In this episode of Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill, we crack open a First State IPA and dive into the quirky and complex history of Maryland—from its colonial beginnings to its odd borders, bold flag, and surprising state symbols.Learn about:* Why Maryland has one of the most distinctive flags in the U.S.* The Catholic roots of the colony and its experiment in religious tolerance* Feuds with Virginia and Delaware that helped shape state lines* Strange land grants, early tobacco economics, and the role of slavery* The story behind counties like Prince George's and Anne Arundel* Why the state sport is jousting (yes, really)* Forgotten heroes like Arctic explorer Matthew Henson* And the ongoing mystery of why no one's ever seen a Baltimore Oriole in BaltimoreWe cover centuries of drama, trivia, and local pride—with plenty of laughs and beer-fueled banter along the way.More at ... https://www.pigweedandcrowhill.com/https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYAjUk6LttQyUk_fV9F46R06OQgH39exQ#Maryland #history #OldLineState

Kate Ames is the Owner and Operator of Baller Foods. Chef Kate grew up foraging, fishing, and camping in Terrace, British Columbia. From a young age, she was drawn more to the arts than the sciences. In high school, she took “easy” academic classes like English and French correspondence during the summer to free up her schedule for the subjects she loved most—foods, choir, band, art, yearbook, and theatre.Kate began cooking at a young age after moving out and getting married at just 18. Her culinary journey started with a dishwasher job at a fishing lodge and evolved through roles at KFC, Pizza Hut, Denny's, and Mr. Mikes. By the age of 20, she was managing both a Subway and a hotel pub.At 23, Kate moved to Vancouver to study graphic design and marketing at Emily Carr University and BCIT. She went on to freelance for over 15 years with her former business, Ames Design Studio, and held marketing and graphic design positions at the PG Free Press and the Northern Health Authority.When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Kate experienced major life upheavals, including the loss of childcare, employment, her design business, and her late partner. With resilience and passion, she pivoted toward her lifelong dream of owning a food truck. Leveraging her background in marketing and design, she launched Baller Food, a business born of both creativity and necessity.Kate began by making meatballs in the kitchen of Birch and Boar, where she found mentorship and support from chef and owner William Miller. Using guerrilla marketing tactics, she sold meatballs on the streets of downtown Prince George and gradually built a following. Over two years, she vended at community events, music festivals, weddings, and schools, eventually expanding into a full-fledged food truck operation.Since then, it's been “balls to the wall.” From May to October, Kate focuses on contract events, travels to northern B.C. music festivals—including Valhalla and Riverboat Days in Terrace, Midsummer in Smithers, ArtsWells near Quesnel, and Robson Valley Music Festival in Dunster—and serves outlying communities such as Quesnel, Vanderhoof, and Mackenzie. She also continues to grow retail sales, with products now available at PG Urban Shroomery and soon at Blackwood Gifts.To improve visibility, Kate has partnered with CO-OP and Superstore and has a regular setup at the Chevron Cardlock in the BCR site. She posts her monthly event schedule and weekly updates on Facebook and Instagram, encouraging followers to set alerts so they never miss where she'll be parked.In the off-season (October to May), Baller Food shifts its focus to hot lunch programs at local schools, event catering, and hot-and-ready meals. This fall, Kate will also launch cooking classes for kids at the South Fort George Family Resource Centre, continuing her mission to nourish and inspire the community through food.

D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser proposed repealing Initiative 82 earlier this week, reigniting the fight over D.C.'s tipped minimum wage law. But given that voters passed the measure twice, the mayor could have trouble getting support from the D.C. Council. Chairman Phil Mendelson got behind the mic to give his thoughts.He said overturning Initiative 82 again is politically difficult for the council. "I have to see where the members are going to be," Mendelson said. "And at the moment, I don't think the members are supporting repeal." He said he still opposes I-82, but he is going to leave it to Mayor Bowser to take the lead in lobbying his council colleagues.We also asked about the mayor's proposed deal with the Washington Commanders. The nearly $4 billion deal to build a new football complex as well a large area of development at the RFK stadium, with the city contributing just over a billion dollars. Mendelson has opposed taxpayer funding for such projects in the past. We asked what would sweeten the deal for him and skeptical council colleagues, who ultimately need to approve the deal.  If the agreement gets the green light, the Washington Commanders would depart their Prince George's County home. County leaders have long prepared for the possibility. Prince George's County Council President Edward Burroughs weighed in and tells us what options could be on the table for the site. Developers are already pitching county leaders on what's next. "I have seen some of the proposals, some of their renderings, and they honestly look a lot better than the stadium, to be quite honest with you," Burroughs said. "And so it's, still in the early stages, but we look forward to working with them." The Commanders have entered an agreement with Prince George's County to demolish the old stadium within 90 days of the team's first home game at the new site.In addition, the county also looks likely to lose the new FBI headquarters. Also, we asked him why the closing of Six Flags in Bowie is a big deal, and how the county is planning to make up a $170 million budget shortfall.Send us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885Follow us on Bluesky: bsky.app/wamu.org

In this extraordinary episode of the Leadership Odysseys podcast, we step into the world of Jim Frecklington MVO, OAM—Australia's master royal coach builder and the man behind some of the most iconic ceremonial carriages in modern history. From the rural fields of Peak Hill, NSW, to the grand halls of Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace, Jim's journey is a testament to passion, craftsmanship, and courageous leadership. He has built not one, but three royal coaches—each an intricate fusion of tradition, symbolism, and vision. As he opens the doors of his workshop to share his story, we're reminded that leadership can be quiet, purposeful, and deeply legacy-driven.   In this episode, you'll discover: ~ The inspiration behind Jim's lifelong pursuit of building carriages fit for royalty—rooted in art, history, and heart. ~ How he assembled a global team of master artisans to create time capsules of British and Commonwealth history. ~ The resilience it takes to build something truly lasting—mortgaging his home, battling cancer, and continuing to create with unwavering commitment. ~ Why preserving craftsmanship matters now more than ever in an increasingly digital world. ~ His reflections on riding with Queen Elizabeth II, honoring the fallen of Dunkirk, and designing a masterpiece for King Charles III—an entirely hand-built, history-laden carriage that will one day carry future kings, including Prince William and Prince George, and be treasured as one of the most significant artistic and cultural creations of our time. This is more than an interview. It's a window into legacy-making at its finest. Jim Frecklington doesn't just build coaches—he tells stories in motion, stories that will outlive all of us. His humility, wisdom, and quiet courage will leave you moved, inspired, and reminded that some of the greatest leaders are those who choose to leave something beautiful behind.   Connect with Kirsty Gee:  LinkedIn |  Instagram | Website This episode is brought to you by: Naturally Glutenfree  | Airwallex

Prince George's County Economic Development Corporation Chairman Orlan Johnson Calls in

Buckingham Palace has announced that Their Majesties The King and Queen will appear on the iconic balcony alongside members of the royal family on May the 5th, as part of events marking the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day — the momentous occasion which brought an end to the Second World War on the continent.The royals will be joined by Prime Minister Keir Starmer and veterans of the conflict to observe a military procession and a flypast over The Mall, launching four days of commemorative events across the United Kingdom.It will be the first gathering on the famous Buckingham Palace balcony since June 2024, when the King and Queen were accompanied by the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children — Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis — during Trooping the Colour, the annual birthday celebration of the Sovereign.

The brutal murders of Rachel Morin and now Lesbia Ramirez highlight, from a conservative viewpoint, the consequences of Maryland’s pro-illegal alien stance. In both cases, the suspects are believed to be illegal immigrants with violent criminal histories who were able to remain in the U.S. due to weak immigration enforcement and sanctuary policies in the state. The tragic loss of lives at the hands of illegal aliens in Maryland underscores the dangers of lax immigration enforcement and sanctuary policies. Maryland’s status as a sanctuary state, with counties like Montgomery and Prince George's openly refusing to cooperate with federal immigration authorities, creates an environment where illegal immigrants can evade accountability and law enforcement. For that reason it has become Ground Zero for illegal alien crime. By providing access to driver's licenses, in-state tuition, and limiting ICE detainers, the state arguably incentivizes illegal entry and shields those who may pose a threat to public safety. These policies, prioritize political correctness over the safety of American citizens, leading to preventable crimes and devastating consequences for families across the state.

Send us a textIn a TBMM first, we read a book with substantially different editions! That's right, we all came to the podcasting table calling the main character by different names. We got that sorted out (and we're defaulting to the most current edition) and dove right in to this lovely book, The Birchbark House, by Louise Erdrich. This book made us laugh and cry and everything in between as we follow Omakakiins and her family through the seasons. This week we discuss whether Old Tallow is a feminist legend, whether a baby can be reincarnated as a bird, and the pretty disturbing origins of the smallpox vaccine. We compare and contrast today's title with the Little House books and examine femininity and our central characters' relationships with their environment. These Books Made Me is a podcast about the literary heroines who shaped us and is a product of the Prince George's County Memorial Library System podcast network.

Franklin Graham delivered the prayer service at the White House Easter prayer service and dinner. President Trump declared "It will always be In God We Trust. We will never change that… With God's help, we can overcome every challenge, triumph over every evil, and restore the spirit of faith in the United States.” Restoring the spirit of faith in America is a stark contrast from Biden's proclamation of Transgender Visibility day on Easter just last year. The Left is once again wrapped up in their obsession of celebrating bad guys, this time around its Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Senator Chris Van Hollen failed to secure a meeting with deported immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia in his attempt to bring Garcia "home." AOC and Cory Booker are singing the same tune but unfortunately for them, Abrego is home, as he is a citizen of El Salvador. Even more, the Prince George county gang unit identified him as gang member back in 2019. The Trump administration obliterated the Senator from Maryland when they brought in angel mom Patty Morin to share how Senator Van Hollen never even acknowledged her daughter, Rachel Morin, when she was murdered by an illegal immigrant. The IRS is looking to strip Harvard of its tax-exempt status because Harvard is choosing to be a nesting ground for anti-semitism and woke radical lunatics.

As political divisiveness becomes the new norm, it can get harder to see the other side, and understand why people vote the way they do. But instead of demonizing those on the other end of the political spectrum, why not lean in and get curious as to why people believe what they do?  On this special election edition of Now or Never, hear from five different Canadians — an 18-year-old, a pastor, a Panamanian-Canadian immigrant, a gun enthusiast, and a senior citizen — about the personal experience shaping the way they'll be voting in this federal election.Gale Uhlmann has a job since she was 15-years-old, working as a trucker, waitress, and office worker. Now at 74, Gale's still working -- but not by choice. She doesn't have enough savings to retire, or to pay $10 000 for the new teeth she needs: "You're a statistic. And they don't - how can I put it nicely - they don't give a damn about what we're encountering."Firearms were a big part of what brought Patrick Osborne and his wife Tara together. After she passed away from cancer in 2022, it's also shaping how he's planning to vote in this election.Although he's been a Canadian citizen for 20 years, Fernando Ameth Pinzon has never voted in a federal election. But Donald Trump's comments about his home country have shifted something in him, bringing him back to a place he hasn't been in a while: his childhood in Panama. When Jason McAllister and his family moved into their new neighborhood in Prince George, B.C., bail reform wasn't even a thought. After five years of living near a home where he frequently witnessed drug use and police raids, it's become a key election issue. 18-year-old Harman Banga is casting her first vote in a federal election, something she's been looking forward to since she was a child. But recently, voting has become even more personal for Harman — her parents both work in the auto industry and their jobs are threatened by tariffs.

Prince George's County congressman Glenn Ivey talks about the latest developments in the case of his resident who was mistaken deported by the Trump administration.

Maryland Congressman Glenn Ivey, whose district includes Prince George's County wants to help. He joined Terry Gerton in studio with plans for a resource fair coming up soon.

The Mecca Business Learning Institute is Montgomery County, Maryland,'s second officially-approved public charter school project and expected to open its doors for the Fall 2025 school year. The school is reporting strong interest from families but as of a few weeks ago the school building was not ready, staff had not been hired, negotiations with the teachers and staff unions incomplete, and finances overly dependent on the county disbursements. Montgomery has long resisted public charter schools even as Washington DC, Prince George's County, and Baltimore have embraced the idea.

Rasul is a 2L at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law. Rasul's journey is one of the best this podcast has ever had to offer. From tire technician to College Valedictorian and Rhodes Scholar finalist, and now a rising 2L and an upcoming 3L Class President at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law.Rasul and I started before he arrived at college. Being an average High School Student, Rasul did not have many intentions of attending college. Inspired by a coworker at BJ's, he would begin his search. After finding out a scholarship could get him to Prince George's Community College for free, he would start his unforgettable journey. Following his time at Prince George's, Rasul finished his time at Towson University, being top 1% of his class, President of numerous organizations, a Rhodes Scholar finalist, and finally, Valedictorian Speaker. We then moved to his introduction into Law School, his 1L year, which he thoroughly enjoyed. It was a thought-provoking experience and a testament to the hard work he had accomplished in the 4 years before it. Even with the large workload, Rasul would become 1L Class President and follow his intellectual curiosity, speaking on the many internships he has held thus far. This episode with Rasul is one of my favorites of all time, full of amazing stories and a testament to pulling yourself up by the bootstraps and not limiting yourself, no matter what. Rasul is someone to look out for many, many years to come!

Send us a textThe sacred walls of the National Law Enforcement Memorial bear 24,067 names—each representing an officer who made the ultimate sacrifice. Behind this powerful tribute stands an organization dedicated to ensuring these heroes are never forgotten.We're joined by Bill Alexander, CEO of the National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund, who brings over 30 years of law enforcement experience and a profound personal connection to the memorial. "We lost 16 of my peers from the Prince George's County Police Department," Bill shares, "all of whom have their names inscribed on the very sacred memorial which all of us in the profession hold so dear." Alongside him is Aaron Slater, board member and owner of Relentless Defender, whose passion for honoring fallen officers shines through in every word.The conversation takes us deep into the organization's three pillars: the memorial that honors the fallen, the museum that tells American law enforcement's honorable story, and officer safety initiatives working toward "Destination Zero"—a future with no more names added to the wall. From the heart-stopping candlelight vigil during Police Week to the interactive museum exhibits that put visitors in officers' shoes, we explore how these experiences transform understanding and build bridges between law enforcement and the communities they serve.What struck me most was learning how the memorial serves as sacred ground for healing. "There is something more than cathartic about seeing that name engraved," Bill explains. "It is absolutely part of the healing process." This isn't just about remembrance—it's about acknowledging sacrifice, processing grief, and celebrating service in ways that change both individuals and our collective understanding of what it means to wear the badge.Whether you've experienced loss in the line of duty or simply want to understand the true story of American law enforcement, this conversation offers powerful insights into an organization ensuring that those who gave everything are honored for generations to come.

Send us a textWhile Canada has Anne of Green Gables about a girl growing up in the late 19th century, America has the Little House on the Prairie series. This episode we look at 2 books from the Prairie series, Little House in the Big Woods and Little House on the Prairie by author Laura Ingalls Wilder. These semi-autobiographical books follow Laura, her parents (Charles and Caroline) and her sisters (Mary and Carrie) from their quiet life in woods of Wisconsin to their perilous journey out to the prairie in the Kansas. Given the time period, Wilder and the Prairie series are not without controversy. We discuss women's roles during the time period, Charles's hasty and ill-advised decisions, and the overt racist depictions of Native Americans. We recognize these books' place in the children's literature canon but we also discuss what space they occupy in our present day. These Books Made Me is a podcast about the literary heroines who shaped us and is a product of the Prince George's County Memorial Library System podcast network.

Roger und Chantal Achermann haben 2014 eine alte Lodge im kanadischen Norden von British Columbia gekauft. Mit viel Herzblut und schweisstreibender Arbeit, haben die beiden fern ab der Zivilisation ihr eigenes Paradies umgeben von Wildnis erschaffen. Seit acht Jahren leben Chantal und Roger Achermann inmitten der kanadischen Wildnis. Im Norden von British Columbia besitzen die Zürcher eine Gäste-Lodge direkt am Tchentlo Lake. Nachbarn gibt es hier nicht, sagt Chantal Achermann: «Wir sind die Einzigen weit und breit!» Ihren Traum vom Haus am See, mussten sie sich hart erarbeiten: «Die Lodge wurde 1992 gebaut und war in einem schlimmen Zustand. Die ersten zwei Jahre verbrachten wir die Sommermonate mit Renovierungsarbeiten.» Auch das Land musste gerodet werden, um überhaupt eine Zufahrtsstrasse durch den Wald zu schaffen. Anfangs war die Lodge sogar nur per Boot erreichbar. Der erste Winter war hart, erinnert sich Chantal: «Wir dachten wir sind gut vorbereitet. Aber die Wasserleitungen waren gefroren und wir hatten trotz Isolation Minustemperaturen im Haus. Es war ein lehrreicher Winter!» Heute haben es ihre Gäste gemütlich warm. Die Gäste-Lodge am Tchentlo Lake ist sehr beliebt. Chantal und Roger Achermann bekommen nicht nur Besuch aus Europa, sondern auch viele Kanadier, welche in den umliegenden Wäldern oder Mienen arbeiten, schätzen die Gastgeber. Zwei Stunden Fahrt zum Briefkasten Der nächste Nachbar wohnt rund 100 Kilometer weit entfernt, sagt Chantal Achermann: «Unser Postfach befindet sich zwei Autostunden von uns entfernt.» Zum Grosseinkauf fährt man über vier Stunden nach Prince George. Und im Winter muss das Paar auf der 10 Kilometer lange Zufahrtsstrasse den Schnee selber räumen. Ein Paradies in der Abgeschiedenheit, wo sich nicht nur Fuchs und Hase gute Nacht sagen: «Hier begegnet man Bären, Kojoten, Wölfen oder Elchen.»

In this episode of the Great Trials Podcast, host Steve Lowry interviews trial lawyers Brian Brown and E.J. Hammond from Brown and Baron in Baltimore, Maryland. They discuss a complex case involving the tragic death of 83-year-old Helen Hansford at Largo Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. The episode highlights their strategic legal maneuvers, including the successful exclusion of the defense's medical expert, and the compelling testimony that led to an $8.5 million verdict for Hansford's estate. Remember to rate and review GTP on Apple Podcasts: Click Here to Rate and Review   Case Details: In June 2020, when Helen first came to Largo Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in Prince George's County, she weighed 112 pounds. She had previously been hospitalized after a bad fall, so she needed around-the-clock care. Upon admission, it was noted that she was at risk for falls, pressure injuries (bed sores), malnutrition, and “failing to thrive” (unsafe weight loss and related complications). By October, Helen's weight was reported to be around 95 pounds. Months later, in January 2021, her weight had plummeted to just 81 pounds, which is about 72% of what it was before. Amid Helen's weight loss crisis, Largo staff failed to put her back on the blood thinner medication that she needed after a surgery related to her fall. In February 2021, a blood clot went to her lungs and brain, causing her to pass away. Read Full Bio Brian Brown Brian S.

President Trump declared last week that he supports the federal government taking over the governance of the District. Many local officials spoke out strongly against the idea, including D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb. He joined the show to weigh in on why stripping D.C. of its autonomy would hurt city residents. Plus, he broke down the lawsuits his office has filed against the Trump administration, over the White House's federal funding freeze to ending birthright citizenship. He also explained why over the last six months his office has shut down 25 unlicensed cannabis shops across the city. Schwalb many of these businesses were selling unlicensed, unregulated products."Many of these cannabis products, aside from being illegal in the sense that they're not licensed, can be very dangerous. They can be laced with other drugs," Schwalb said. "Oftentimes, in the shutdowns, we have found not only methamphetamine and other drugs with the cannabis, but guns and other contraband."Early voting started this week in Prince George's County special election primaries for County Executive and District 5. The County Executive race is particularly competitive, with eight Democrats and three Republicans on the ballot vying to replace Angela Alsobrooks, who vacated the seat late last year after being elected U.S. Senator. Washington Informer's Richard Elliott got behind the mic to break down the March 4 election and explain what the races mean for the future of the county.Become a member of WAMU: wamu.org/donateSend us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885

We loved the Tupac references and Maverick's take on Harry Potter and cheered for Starr when she grabbed that megaphone.

It's a stunning shake-up in the Justice Department. Three top federal prosecutors resigned after refusing to drop corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The acting U.S. attorney in Manhattan, Danielle Sassoon, and two senior prosecutors in Washington stepped down after the Justice Department, under the Trump administration, ordered them to dismiss the case. At the center of the controversy--allegations that Adams, a former police captain, and the city's second Black mayor, took illegal campaign contributions and bribes from foreign nationals. The DOJ says keeping the case alive would interfere with Adams' ability to tackle crime and immigration issues. What does this means for Adams, the Justice Department, and the Black political landscape? Congressman Glenn Ivey, a former State Attorney for Maryland's Prince George's County spoke with Roland Martin about this shocking development in the Adams corruption case.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the morning of August 28, 2008, Kanika Powell, a 28-year-old laboratory employee with top-secret security clearance, left her apartment in Laurel, Maryland, to run errands. She had spent the past five days on edge after three different men—one posing as an FBI agent and two claiming to be delivery drivers—knocked on her door, each asking for her by name. She refused to let any of them in. Just before noon on the 28th, Kanika returned home. Moments later, she was ambushed outside her apartment and shot multiple times. Despite years of investigation, her killer has never been identified, leaving many unanswered questions. Was Kanika targeted because of her top-secret security clearance? Or was there something even more sinister at play? 28-year-old veteran Kanika Powell received three mysterious knocks at her door, starting on August 23, 2008. The first man claimed to be an FBI agent. The other two—one on the evening of August 27 and another on the morning of August 28—said they were there to deliver packages. Each man knew Kanika's name, but she refused to let any of them in. After the final knock, Kanika left home to run errands. She returned around 11:50 a.m. and was gunned down in the hallway of her apartment at the Deerfield Run Apartments in Laurel, Maryland. The killer and murder weapon have never been found.  Anyone with information is asked to call Prince George's County Police Department at 301-352-1200 or Prince George's County Crime Solvers Hotline at 1-866-411-8477.  Editor: Shannon Keirce Research/Writing: Polly Kotowski SUBMIT A CASE HERE: Cases@DetectivePerspectivePod.com SOCIAL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/detperspective/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/detperspective FIND DERRICK HERE Twitter: https://twitter.com/DerrickL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DerrickLevasseur Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DerrickVLevasseur CRIME WEEKLY AND COFFEE Criminal Coffee Company: https://www.CriminalCoffeeCo.com Crime Weekly:  https://crimeweeklypodcast.com/shop ADS: 1.

Authorities arrested 30-year-old Devontae Gray in Capitol Heights, Maryland, after he allegedly shot and killed 29-year-old Alexis Shuler, a mother of three. Investigators report Gray hid her body in a storage bin, encased it in concrete, and concealed it behind a newly built wall. Gray confessed to the murder during a dispute. Shuler was reported missing on January 14 after family members lost contact with her. Surveillance footage allegedly showed Gray purchasing cement, cinder blocks, and storage containers. Police later discovered Shuler's body entombed in concrete behind a newly constructed wall in Gray's home. He is being held without bond on a murder charge, and his next court date is February 19. Family members reported Shuler missing to Washington, D.C., police when they hadn't heard from her in several days. Relatives believed she was at Gray's Capitol Heights home, but initial visits by law enforcement found no obvious signs of wrongdoing. Officers did, however, notice a strong and unusual odor. Further investigation and surveillance footage confirmed Shuler had been in Gray's home, according to Prince George's County Police Chief Malik Aziz at a press conference. The footage also showed Gray purchasing construction materials, including cement, cinder blocks, chemicals, and large storage bins, on January 12 and 13. Police obtained and executed a search warrant on Sunday, discovering a newly built wall in Gray's home. Behind it, officers found a storage bin concealed under a stairwell. Shuler's body was “entombed” in concrete and covered with soil and hay, according to the arrest affidavit. She had been shot to death, and it reportedly took authorities nearly three hours to recover her remains. During the press conference, Aziz revealed that Gray admitted to murdering Shuler during a dispute. Shuler and Gray shared one child together, while Shuler had two other children from a previous relationship. Shuler's family, present at the press conference, expressed gratitude that she was found despite the tragic circumstances. “Although the outcome is not what we had hoped, we take solace in knowing that Alexis has been found, and we now have the closure to lay her to rest in peace,” said her cousin, Derrick Felder. “Her three children will no longer feel their mother's embrace or hear their mother's voice.” Gray remains in custody at the Prince George's County Jail without bond. His next court appearance is scheduled for February 19. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
