For the family of Anastasia Ferriera, the search has been defined by obstacles: a detective they waited six months to meet, and tips that arrived too late or led nowhere. Her mother, Natalie, and grandmother Brenda have largely driven the investigation themselves, canvassing the International District, funding billboards and radio ads, and connecting with advocacy group Aunties for Justice.

In this conclusion, we follow the leads that emerged after Anastasia's disappearance, including a search warrant executed at a southeast Albuquerque address, a missing persons flyer recovered from a stolen vehicle in Oklahoma, and a woman who appeared at God's Warehouse claiming to be Anastasia. Her case is now cold, the original detective has retired, and her family is still waiting for someone to come forward.

Nineteen-year-old Anastasia Ferriera grew up close to her mother, Natalie Padilla, and her grandmother Brenda. Birthdays were always spent together, and texts flew back and forth throughout the day. In March 2023, that contact stopped. Anastasia was last seen in Albuquerque's International District, and her family has been searching ever since.

In this first episode of a two-part series, we trace Anastasia's life in Albuquerque's International District and the days leading up to her disappearance. Her family has never stopped searching. They hope someone out there knows something.

Eleven-year-old Andrew Oliver Escobar was finally settling back in with his father in Albuquerque. Re-enrolled at his old elementary school, he was playing chess, learning . Then, on June 25, 2023, Andrew went to his mother's for a court-ordered weekend visit. He never came back.

In this first episode of our new season, we examine Andrew's disappearance and the painful reality facing families when a child is taken by a parent: that the system is rarely built for them. Andrew is now fourteen years old. His father has never stopped searching.

This week we're sharing an episode from our friend Kristen Seavey, who creates and hosts Murder, She Told. Kristen is a credentialed victim's advocate and one of the best cold case researchers working in the field.

In 1963, Emil Martens, a Danish immigrant living in a one-room cabin in the woods of Aroostook County, Maine, was murdered. The case went cold. At some point, the Maine State Police told his family the files had been lost. His name does not appear on any unsolved case list in the state. Kristen tracked down records that had never been released publicly and worked directly with Emil's surviving family to tell this story.

Emil's family needs support and media coverage. Please share this episode widely.

Roycinda Alexander thought that justice would come swiftly for her son, Darren Gray, who was murdered in public, in a city park, during his own child's birthday party—but she soon discovered that the neighborhood she'd raised her family in began to feel like a land of strangers.

On May 8th, 2010, 24-year-old Darren Gray attended his child's birthday party at a Norfolk-area public park; during the celebration, he was attacked by a group of men and endured a brutal beating that ended in his murder. Close to 13 years later, his mother and siblings have more questions than answers, and though some suspects were identified—and eventually, convicted—of Darren's beating, his murderers remain at large.

If you have information in the unsolved murder of Darren Gray, you can submit an anonymous tip by calling 1-888-LOCK-U-UP (1-888-562-5887). We are sharing our two-part series on Darren's case again in hopes of attracting more tips that could finally solve his murder.

For more than two years, we've continued our coverage of the Nashville, Tennessee Jane Doe formerly known as Vandy Jane Doe. In February 2026, her identification was announced: she was Yadezia Jones, of Nashville, and had finally been reconnected with her identity through FIGG (forensic investigative genetic genealogy). In this episode, we speak with the current and retired detectives assigned to her case and the team of investigative genealogists who ultimately identified Yadezia—and discuss what comes next for the investigation into her death.

For the family of Christian Boyle, the grief of his unsolved murder is compounded by a lack of transparency. While convictions were secured in the Birmingham murder of Terrell Guy Jr.—the crime Christian witnessed—his own case in Blount County has remained at a standstill for eight years.

In the conclusion of this series, we speak with Christian's twin Brandon about his transformation from grieving Marine to self-taught legal advocate. By studying Alabama legal code and filing persistent public records requests, Brandon is demanding proof the investigation is active. We explore the barriers families face when seeking transparency in cold cases and Kerry's ongoing appeal for witnesses to break their silence after eight years.

Sarah is an advocate for missing and murdered victims whose sister disappeared in 2001. Kourtney is a true crime storyteller and investigator who witnessed firsthand how crime can change a family forever. Together, they bring lived experience into every case, looking not only at what happened, but what led up to it.

Eighteen-year-old Christian Boyle was a fixture in his small town of Cleveland, Alabama. A fraternal twin who was "smart as a whip," Christian spent his days working construction and helping his mother, Kerry, care for his quadriplegic father. But when he failed to show up for laundry and missed his usual goodnight text on December 12, 2017, his family knew something was wrong.

In the first episode of this two-part series, we detail the 13-day search across the rural backroads of Blount County and the systemic delays that left a family hunting for answers on their own. We examine the devastating discovery made on Christmas night and the emergence of a shocking lead: Christian had been an unarmed witness to a homicide in Birmingham just 48 hours before he vanished.
