In the sweltering haze of a 1984 Florida summer, where the air hung heavy with humidity and the promise of new beginnings, James Weston Chambers—a devoted ex-minister chasing a fresh start in the Sunshine State—was gunned down in his car on a desolate stretch of I-75. Four decades later, we revisit the chilling cold case with a fresh twist: a recent fingerprint hit that has the Lee County Sheriff's Cold Case Homicide Unit diving back in. 

On this Episode we sit down with the unit's captain to uncover how they're refusing to let time bury the truth. Was Chambers stalked from the Witch's Brew Lounge? Lured by a police impersonator? Hear the unanswered questions that could crack the case wide open—and learn how your tip might finally deliver justice for an innocent victim and closure for his family.
