In 1987, near Lake Mead at Bonelli Landing, a rancher discovered a human skull and remains wrapped in a yellow blanket and buried in a shallow grave. They became another unidentified Jane Doe, her identity lost to time.

Nearly 40 years later, on July 15, 2025, forensic scientists matched dental records and confirmed that those remains belonged to San Diego nurse Carol Ann Riley, who vanished in 1986 after a date with a man later revealed to be serial murderer Robert Dean Weeks.

The sound of an argument carried down the hallway of a central Las Vegas home. It was around two in the afternoon on September 2, 2023, when Juan and his family heard his roommate, 46-year-old Danelle Mask, yell, “I’m going to kill you,” and 59-year-old Jason Williams shout back, “Do it.”

Juan knew it was best to take his kids and leave the house immediately. An hour or so later, Jason would be found slumped and bleeding on the porch of that same home, a single stab wound to his chest.

Ash Armand / Akshaya Kubiak portrayed himself as a spiritual zen master, along with being a reality TV personality on the series "Gigolos" on ShowTime. The show runners said they knew one of these guys would do something stupid, but they had no idea it would be Ash, and they had no idea he was capable of murder.

In this week's episode, we have a special extended collab with Sherry from the Alleged Actually podcast. We'll explore what we learned about Hurleen Dulai, his amazing client and victim, who found herself being preyed upon by this "healer".

Let us know what you think! You can also watch the video on our YouTube channel.

Las Vegas has long been plagued by high rates of violent crime—and a disturbingly low rate of resolution. In this anthology episode, we share the stories of four unsolved murders: Eugene Bell, Brittney Biggs, Celia Luna Delgado, and John Norris.

Each case is tragic, each one baffling—and each deserves answers. Some of these victims were barely covered in the press. Others were quickly forgotten. But all left behind, grieving families who are still waiting for justice. 

We’re bringing their stories back into the spotlight in hopes that someone out there knows something—and is finally ready to come forward.

When someone is murdered in Las Vegas, headlines tend to follow a pattern: mention the crime and include a short, impersonal description of the victim. 

In March of 2018, the headlines read, “homeless woman murdered.” That was the phrase police and the press used to describe the death of Kelly Kazoon.

But Kelly wasn’t just a homeless woman. She was a widow, a mother, and a friend. The man who killed her would try to say he had just blacked out and couldn’t remember what happened, but the evidence told a different story.

Jamey Walker was a member of one of the most beloved and consequential families ever to have lived on Las Vegas’s Historic West Side.

Her mother, her father, and her grandmother were all well-known and highly regarded, going back to the 1960s and earlier.

On Mother's Day 1981, a day when Jamey planned to spend time with her mom and grandmother, the unthinkable happened. She disappeared without a trace. Kidnapped. Gone. 

Her panicked family did what they were told, but they couldn't prevent the unimaginable from happening to her.

Today in place of our standard Swing Shift episode, we're bringing you a missing person, also from PNW Haunts & Homicides. Our policy is never to have a missing person be anything other than free, in the spirit of raising the profile of these important cases and in the hope that people like Maureen will be found.

Here are their show notes. Please pay them a visit at https://sinspod.co/pnw

We remind you that we always have resources for those experiencing domestic violence listed on our website at https://sinspod.co/resources

In June 2013, 19-year-old Maureen Leianuhea “Anu” Kelly set off on a camping trip with friends in the vast and unspoiled wilderness Gifford Pinchot National Forest. The backdrop was both scenic and rugged. What was supposed to be a carefree adventure outdoors turned into a chilling mystery when Anu walked away from their campsite—completely nude, save for her fanny pack—and never returned.

Despite extensive search efforts, the only trace of her was a set of footprints leading toward a road. Her extremely limited supplies, tucked into the fanny pack she’d donned, would do little to stave off any number of threats she may have encountered in the woods. Over the years, theories have swirled - while she may have been seeking a spiritual awakening, her whereabouts have remained unknown since that fateful night. Did she fall victim to the harsh wilderness? Or is it possible that something far more sinister happened that night?

Join us as we retrace Anu’s final known steps, explore the many theories surrounding her mysterious disappearance, and discuss the latest developments, including the discovery of human remains in the Big Lava Bed located in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in August of 2024.

As we look to take some well-earned time off and build up a nice backlog for season 3, we'll be bringing you the occasional feed swap from one of the many podcasts we love in the ethical true crime space.

A reminder if you or anyone you know is experiencing domestic violence, please avail yourself of the resources, or share the resources we have listed at https://sinspod.co/resources

In March 2023, Meshay Melendez and her daughter Layla Stewart disappeared from Vancouver, Washington. Despite multiple red flags and an active no-contact order, Meshay’s abusive ex-boyfriend, Kirkland Warren, was free—with devastating consequences. In this heart-wrenching episode, we uncover the tragic story of Meshay Melendez and her 7-year-old daughter, Layla Stewart, whose lives were cut short. This case shines a light on the cracks in the system when it comes to domestic violence protections and the urgent need for systemic change and nuanced dialogue that produce real change.
Join us as we trace the chilling timeline:

• Meshay’s turbulent history with Warren, including prior domestic violence.
• Court decisions that left Warren free despite extreme risk assessments.
• The heartbreaking discovery of Meshay and Layla’s bodies.
• Warren’s shocking criminal past, his manipulation of the legal system, and the final sentencing.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233), text "START" to 88788, or visit thehotline.org.

When people think about Lake Mead, they picture sunshine, water, and long weekends. But the stories we’re telling in this episode don’t end up in a photo album. They end in silence, suspicion, and grief.

A missing mother. A woman whose name no one knew. A Marine who never made it home. A child left to drown. And a young immigrant weighed down in the water.
These are stories the lake didn’t hide.

They're stories we’ve chosen not to see.

In the summer of 2022, Lake Mead dropped to its lowest levels in almost a century. The shoreline crept back. Boats that had been swallowed years ago sat beached in the sand like ghosts. But that wasn't all the lake revealed.

Lake Mead has long been a getaway for families, boaters, and hikers. But it’s also one of the deadliest national parks in the country. People vanish. Accidents happen. But every so often, the lake gives up a secret.
