True crime

We’re taking this week off in honor of Memorial Day but wanted to make sure you still had an incredible podcast to listen to. Here’s an episode of a podcast we adore and a host we adore even more: Least of These.
An upcoming marriage, a trip to the beach, and Ostrich.
On March 26th, 2021, 35-year-old Rhonda Pattelena and her 33-year-old boyfriend, Jeffrey Buchanan took a walk along Short Sands Beach in York, Maine.
Short Sands was Rhonda’s favorite place on earth.
At 3:54 pm, 911 calls began to pour into the York Police Department. Callers reported that they witnessed someone being assaulted. By the time police arrived, the 33-year-old mother of three was deceased.
What happened…and why?
