This morning, we got news that the U.S. Special Envoy for Haiti, Daniel Foote, is resigning, saying he refuses to be associated with the United States' "inhumane, counterproductive decision to deport thousands of Haitian refugees."

We talk with Anthony Amore, chief of security at the Gardner Museum, about what that means for those still hoping the mystery will one day be solved, and why this story is still so compelling, more than 30 years later.

Plus, fall is here, so we take calls on favorite places to hike in New England.

Boston wants to rent out 30 hotel rooms at the Quality Inn in Revere for people currently in the area of Massachusetts Avenue and Melnea Cass Boulevard who are experiencing homelessness and addiction.

Two seasoned hikers joined Radio Boston to share their tips on staying safe and hiking alone, as well as recommendations for where to hike this fall.

We sit down with Arielle Gray, WBUR's Arts Engagement Producer, to dive into this list.

There are some fascinating races: from the four women running to be the first female mayor of North Adams, to the first district-level city council elections ever in Lowell.

Plus, we get the latest on the sentencing of former Fall River Mayor Jasiel Correia, and check in with someone working on the front lines of the state's contact tracing efforts.

Contact tracing is also about providing support for people during a potentially scary and unknown time. We hear from Alexander Bent, about this process. He's an investigator with the Massachusetts Community Tracing Collaborative, the contact tracing team with Partners in Health.

We talk to WPRI Investigative Reporter Tim White as we await breaking-news on Correia's sentencing.
