FROM THE VAULT: A True Crime Podcast

In this final episode of our interview with Detective William Springer of the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, Jason and special guest co-host Gwen Barringer speak with Det. Springer about the recent identification of Suzanne Poole, formerly 1974 Singer Island Jane Doe. Discussed is the initial investigation and how a suspect was named early on; only for investigators to really look at the bigger picture once her identification was made. Also discussed briefly is the case of Randi Gorenberg and Rachel Hurley, both from Palm Beach County. 

This is the conclusion of our three part episode.

Det. William Springer's career in law enforcement goes back to 1969 in Centre County, Pennsylvania. From there, he migrated to Florida for better pay; only to be knocked down and making what he calls "starvation wages". From there, he picked himself up and started a career with PBSO that led him to become one of the county's--and state's--top homicide detectives. Today, he is on the cold case squad with a mission to solve every cold case there. And he has the weapon of modern technology to help him. Gwen Barringer of A Light for Ericka and John Lordan's Seriously Mysterious returns as Jason's co-host in this episode. This is the first of two episodes.

Harry Tyson and Harriette V. Moore were trailblazers in the civil rights movement in Florida. They strove to make equal access at the polls for blacks a reality, despite the struggles they faced early on. Harry was the state president of the NAACP, and eventually would form the Progressive Voters League with a friend. Together, with Harriette's help, they were able to register over 100,000 blacks to the Democratic Party of Florida.

On this episode of From The Vault, we conclude the conversation on Harry and Harriette Moore with special guest Bill Gary of the Harry and Harriette Moore Cultural Center as we discuss the bombing of the Moore home in Mims, Florida. Additionally, a deep dive into the investigation into the persons of interest in the case and the aftermath of the most recent investigation.
