How does a child disappear while every agency insists it's “following policy”? Tonight on Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski and the panel trace the bureaucratic breakdown that let Melodee Buzzard, 9, fade from every official record. Complaints were filed. CPS was warned. The school marked her “independent study.” And still, no one saw her for more than a year. We unpack the entire chain of failure — from overloaded caseworkers and loophole homeschooling laws to judges demanding “visible danger” before approving removals. The grandmother reported rotting food and filth; social workers logged a “monitor.” By the time anyone knocked again, Melodee was gone. Now the FBI is digging through her mother's Lompoc home, a storage unit, and a rental car that traveled 1,500 miles — searching for proof of what happened. This isn't just one tragedy. It's a blueprint for how neglect hides in plain sight when red tape replaces common sense. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #MelodeeBuzzard #CPS #ChildProtection #California #SystemFailure #TrueCrimeToday #LawAndCrime #MissingChild #FBIInvestigation #GroupDiscussion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On the morning of January 24, 2025, 39-year-old Heather Caras disappeared from her home in Linton, North Dakota. When she stepped outside, her two teenage sons were still at home. One of her sons later recalled that Heather said she was going to start her vehicle, but she never came back. This was out of character for Heather, who was known to be a devoted and protective mother, given that both of her boys have special needs. When she didn't return, one of the boys walked to school to sound the alarm that something was wrong. The next day, Heather's truck was found at Beaver Bay, about fifteen miles west of Linton. The scene there was strange: a set of footprints leading away from the vehicle, then abruptly ending, and a pair of shoes neatly placed in the snow.In the days that followed, few clues emerged. Then came a statement from law enforcement claiming that Heather had “left her family and the area willingly with the assistance of an unknown acquaintance and was not known to be in any danger.” To those who knew Heather best, that theory wasn't just out of character; it was unthinkable.As we were preparing to cover Heather's disappearance, news broke in late May that human remains had been found not far from Beaver Bay. They were later confirmed to be Heather's remains, but the autopsy results left those who knew and loved her with even more questions than answers. If you have any information about the disappearance or death of Heather Caras, please contact the Emmons County Sheriff's Office at 701-254-4411.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In the ‘70s and ‘80s, three Florida women went missing under suspiciously similar circumstances. The women didn't know each other. Their only connection was a man named Cleveland Hill Jr. All three women went missing after they ended their affairs with Hill. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murders of Margaret Dash, Retha Hiers, and Donyelle Johnson. All three of these women had relationships with Cleveland Hill, ended them, and then subsequently went missing. It's tough to write that off as a coincidence. Hill had a long history of violence and once shot both his wife and mother-in-law.You can help support the show at patreon.com/truecrimeallthetimeVisit the show's website at truecrimeallthetime.com for contact, merchandise, and donation informationAn Emash Digital productionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Miracle After the Darkness – Michal Weinstein's Unbelievable Story When Michal Weinstein was just ten years old, her father — a respected diamond dealer and Israeli diplomat — vanished without a trace. For nearly two decades, her family lived in painful uncertainty, surrounded by rumors, fear, and unanswered questions. In this gripping episode, Michal opens up to Nachi Gordon about the shocking twists that followed: corruption at the highest levels, a decades-long mystery, and an unimaginable discovery that finally brought truth and closure 19 years later.

During the crucial period from May 2007 to April 2008—when federal prosecutors in the Southern District of Florida were drafting an indictment, negotiating with Epstein's attorneys, and ultimately approving a plea deal—internal review by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) discovered a significant gap in Acosta's incoming email records. The “data gap” corresponds exactly to this key negotiation window and affected Acosta's inbox but not his sent mail. The gap was described by the OPR as likely a technological error, not necessarily a deletion. The missing emails are at the heart of motions by Epstein's victims' attorneys seeking the release of documents they say were never produced, arguing that the gap “struck on exactly the time period when most of the big decisions were being made.”Acosta, who as U.S. Attorney signed off on a non-prosecution agreement in 2008 that allowed Epstein to plead guilty to state charges while federal indictments were dropped, has faced mounting criticism and scrutiny for his judgment in the case. His defenders say the missing emails are part of a benign IT issue, but victims' advocates say they illustrate how the system protected Epstein. Because the missing records overlap with Epstein's legal team's intense lobbying and the prosecutors' internal deliberations, the gap raises questions about transparency, institutional accountability, and whether the full scope of the federal investigation was preserved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

This episode first aired on October 31, 2022. On September 30, 1994, 20-year-old Jarrod Green disappeared from Searcy, Arkansas. That night, he told his family he had plans to meet someone. During a phone call with his girlfriend, he sounded upset but refused to explain what was wrong. Earlier that week, Jarrod had retrieved a gun he had previously loaned to a friend, saying he needed it for protection. He never made it home and was never seen or heard from again.A few days later, Jarrod's car was found abandoned in the parking lot of a local store. The doors were unlocked, the windows were rolled down, and the keys were on the floor. His disappearance quickly went cold. His family heard little from law enforcement and felt as though the case had been forgotten.Over time, disturbing stories began to circulate. Less than a year later, another person connected to Jarrod vanished. Another reportedly took his own life after confessing to being involved in Jarrod's death. Years later, a group of new detectives decided to reexamine the case, and for the first time in decades, there was movement.If you have any information about the disappearance of Jarrod Green, please contact the Searcy Police Department at (501) 268-3531.You can follow developments in Jarrod's case on Facebook at Justice for Jarrod.
