In 2001, when PFC Amanda Gonzalez was found dead in her barracks room on Fliegerhorst Kaserne - she was 4 and a half months pregnant with a baby girl. There were a few rumors about the possible suspect, but Amanda’s case remained cold for decades, despite a reward of up to $125,000 for information leading to an arrest. And then, in 2023, there was an arrest and while the arrest surprised many, the suspect was in law enforcement’s purview from the very beginning, they were just waiting for DNA technology to improve. 

Join Margot as she discusses Amanda Gonzalez’s cold case and the 2023 arrest of Army veteran Shannon Wilkerson, who was subsequently charged with her murder. Wilkerson’s federal trial is scheduled to begin on April 8, 2024. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
