It was just after midnight 28 years ago, on May 10th, 1996, that police responded to the scene of the murder of Leon Laureles. Leon's co-workers got worried when he didn't show up for work. Police responded to a 911 call about a car on fire and discovered Leon's 1988 Ford Thunderbird engulfed in flames. His body was found not far from his car.

Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the murder of Leon Laureles. Leon's niece, Arlene Harbison, joins us for this episode to discuss the murder of her uncle. She insists that the investigation was short-sighted from the start. Without any merit, the police claimed that Leon was involved with drugs and that his murder revolved around that.
