In January 1971, two teenagers hitchhiking along Interstate 75 in central Florida spotted a body floating in Lake Panasoffkee — a remote, swampy waterway 50 miles northwest of Orlando. The victim was a young woman, badly decomposed, with a man's size 36 belt wrapped around her throat. She carried no identification. No one reported her missing. She would be known for the next five decades simply as Little Miss Lake Panasoffkee.

In this episode, Carrie walks through the full arc of one of Sumter County, Florida's most haunting cold cases:

In January 2011, 27-year-old first-grade teacher Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her Philadelphia apartment with 20 stab wounds — including 10 to the back of her neck and a knife plunged four inches into her chest. Despite this, her death was ruled a suicide. In this episode, we break down the full timeline of the case: from the 911 call and the crime scene inconsistencies, to the medical examiner's controversial ruling change, the doorman's contradictory statement, and the Greenberg family's ongoing fight for justice through a civil lawsuit against the city of Philadelphia.

Join us at Wood Library as we explore the tragic murder of 18-year-old Kaitlyn Arquette, daughter of bestselling YA author Lois Duncan ("I Know What You Did Last Summer").

On July 16, 1989, recent high school graduate Kaitlyn was shot twice while driving home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. For over 30 years, her family fought for answers while police dismissed it as a random crime. Lois Duncan believed her daughter's death was connected to an insurance fraud scheme, devoting decades to investigating the case and advocating for victims' rights.

The truth proved even more shocking: in 2021, Paul Apodaca—a man who had been standing at the crime scene the night of the murder—finally confessed. He was the killer all along, and police had his name from day one but never followed up.

This episode examines the original 1993 Unsolved Mysteries feature, the insurance fraud theory, overlooked forensic evidence, and the devastating impact on a mother who spent 30 years searching for justice she would never see. truecrime #unsolvedmysteries #coldcase #kaitlynarquette #loisduncan #1989 #albuquerque #coldcasesolved #truecrimepodcast #truecrimecommunity #justice #robertstack #serialkiller #paulapodaca
