The Deck

Our card this week is Clarissa Castro, the King of Hearts from California.

One fall day in 1991, 14-year-old Clarissa vanished into thin air after a night of hanging out with friends. Years later, the mystery of where she disappeared to would be solved, but that discovery would open up a whole new world of unknowns.

If you know anything about the murder of 14-year-old Clarissa Castro in 1991, please call the Chula Vista Police Department at (619)691-5151.

Our card this week is Tira Snyder, the Jack of Hearts from Washington. 

The afternoon of July 1st, 1985, was supposed to be a mundane Monday for Tira Snyder. The 19-year-old wife and mother was going to run some errands and make dinner before her husband got home from work. Nothing that day went as planned. And Dave Snyder would never get another mundane day with his wife again.

Our cards this week are Jennifer "Moonbeam" Hammond, the 10 of Hearts from New York, and Christina White, the 3 of Clubs from New York.

Jennifer “Moonbeam” Hammond and Christina White,  both young women, disappeared from trailer parks in the quiet town of Milton, New York. Both were ultimately found in nearby remote woodlands. And even though they didn’t know each other, police believe that both likely crossed paths with the same someone… who led them to the same cruel fate. And that potential connection might be the key to unraveling the mysteries that have surrounded these cases for way too long. 

If you have information about either case, call the Saratoga County Sheriff's Office at (518) 885-6761, or use the contact form found at this link.

Our card this week is Your Honorable Honor, the Queen of clubs from California. 

This is a case I’d bet money you haven’t heard of… Because when you google her name, only her cold case card pops up. Nothing else. The story of 62-year-old Your Honorable Honor, better known as Honor, has more than been forgotten… it’s never been told. Until now.

Our card this week is Eden Young, the 3 of Hearts from Minnesota. 

31-year-old Eden and her boyfriend were new to the North Star state. They had only lived there about three months, when, in September 1992, Eden was seen riding away in a mysterious blue van never to be seen again. Now, more than three decades later, present-day detectives are traveling down some winding roads previous investigators never explored in hopes it will lead them to the truth.

If you have any information about the murder of Eden Young, please call the investigations tip line at the Washington County, Minnesota Sheriff’s Office at 651-430-7850.

Our card this week is Sharon Pretorius, the 6 of Diamonds from Ohio.

One September day in 1973, 13-year-old Sharon left her home to run a quick errand, an errand she’s run dozens of times before. But that day would be different. And for the last 50 years her family and investigators have put all their hope and energy into trying to determine what happened in just a 90 second window after she walked out the door. 

If you know anything about the disappearance or murder of 13-year-old Sharon Pretorius in September of 1973, or if you’re a detective who’s worked a similar case, please call the Dayton Police Department Cold Case Unit at 937-333-7109.

Our card this week is Kathy Jones-Harmon, the 10 of Hearts from Utah.

Kathy was a 22-year-old newlywed living in Salt Lake City in 1976, forging her own path in a town that often seemed to value conformity over individuality. By all accounts Kathy had a reputation for being tough – definitely no shrinking violet. So no one was particularly worried about her fending for herself when her husband Dave left town on his rig for his most recent long-haul trek through the rugged Mountain West. And besides, Kathy had a solid group of friends to look out for her, including her roommate Vickie.

But Vickie couldn’t stay with Kathy 24/7 – and on the evening of March 2nd, when Kathy was left alone, something was set into motion that remains a mystery to this day.

If you know anything about the murder of Kathy Jones-Harmon in Salt Lake City, Utah in March of 1976, please call Unified Police Detective Ben Pender at 385-468-9816.

Our card this week is Brenda Gaddis, the Jack of Spades from Ohio.

None of Brenda’s friends or family could’ve guessed that Thanksgiving 1990 would be the last time they’d see the sweet 33-year-old mother of three. For weeks, it seemed like Brenda had vanished into thin air… but eventually finding her just lead to more questions that are still unanswered to this day.

If you know anything about the murder of Brenda Gaddis in 1990, please call the Cold Case Unit at the Dayton Police Department at (937) 333-7109.

Our card this week is Valaine Briggs, the Ace of Spades from Utah.

When 18-year-old Valaine left her Salt Lake City apartment and walked to class one spring morning in 1977, her carefully planned future was full of promise. And though she was in a time of transition and had recently ended an engagement, Valaine knew even this temporary disappointment just brought her closer to the life she dreamed of…a life full of family and rooted in faith…a life her ex-fiancé couldn’t give her. What Valaine didn’t know that morning…what she couldn’t have known…was that the postcard-perfect future she envisioned for herself would be stolen from her in the cruelest of ways.

If you know anything about the murder of Valaine Briggs in Salt Lake City, Utah in May of 1977, please call Unified Police Detective Ben Pender at 385-468-9816.

Our card this week is Corey A. Mitchell, the 10 of Spades from Ohio.

May 29th, 2010 was supposed to be a normal Saturday for 34-year-old, single dad Corey and his 11-year-old twins, but a brazen masked gunman had other plans. Authorities in Dayton, Ohio, have spent the last 13 years trying to figure out who was behind that mask.
