Locating the Lost

Paula Turkovich’s body was found on the rear of 200 Old Country Road in Mineola on March 31st, 2018 at 8:31pm the night before Easter.  What makes this case odd is Paula had dinner with her family and in within one hour she is found deceased.  PD claim it was a suicide but the timeline does not make sense.  The car Paula used that night was found at a train station an hour away from her house and a half hour from the parking garage she allegedly jumped from, however PD insist she took the train to the garage.  In Paula’s so called suicide letter which her mother believes she was forced to write but was so intelligent she rewrote a quote and underlined it. The quote was from a book called “Reconstructing Amelia” by, Kimberly McCreight, in the story the mom gets a call from her daughter’s school saying her daughter Amelia jumped from a building but in fact she never did jump someone murdered Amelia. They lured Amelia to the top of the building and she was pushed to her death. The medical examiner washed the clothes she was wearing and did not fingerprint. Tonight we speak to her mother Kathleen who is fighting for justice for her little girl Paula Turkovich.

On Saturday, November 12, 1988, the body of 14 year old Brandy Dawn Hutchins was found under an abandoned house in the small town of Coal Hill, AR.  She had been shot once, execution style, in the forehead-just above her right eye.  Her body was discovered after some hunters found a purse near the abandoned house and began to investigate further. Someone had thrown boards on top of her body in order to hide her.  Brandy was my cousin and to this day, no one has been charged with her murder.  That was over 34 years ago.

Tonight we speak with Natalie Long, friend of Timmy Dees who went missing after calling 911 in a panic fearing for his life. When the cops showed up less than 10 minutes later, Timmy was gone but they never looked for him but instead arrested another person at the location and left. That decision to let an arrest take priority over looking for a panicked 911 caller very well may have cost Timmy his life.
