On a warm summer morning on Thursday, August 28, 2008 in Prince George's County, Laurel, Maryland, 28 year old Kanika Powell took off work in preparation for a weekend getaway with a new friend to Pride festival in Atlanta. She used that early morning to run some errands and get her car serviced before they both embarked on the 11 hour trip. Upon returning from running her errands, Kanika was gunned down in her apartment hallway, in broad daylight, after experiencing a series of week-long anonymous and odd visitors to her front door. 

You have to wonder, who would want Kanika dead? This was no accident or mistaken identity. In fact, the assailant knew exactly who she was and who to target. 

There were no eyewitnesses, but neighbors heard her voice, smelled the gun powder in the air, and the multiple shots fired that eventually claimed the life of Kanika. 

A chilling case that isn't just what happened, but why…and who. We will get into some details about Kanika and who she was, the case details, the strange unexplainable series of events that led to her violent murder, theories, a possible connection of another murder right in the county, and close with my opinion.

You have to ask yourself, how can a very well educated, Army veteran, who lived a normal life, with a job that required a top security clearance, be targeted and eventually brutally murdered only steps away from her front door?

Sometime in the early morning of Friday, February 3, 2006, in Tallahassee, Florida, 30 year old Ali Gilmore disappeared from her residence at 231 Loraine Court.

Just hours before — that previous day — everything had seemed to be normal. Ali went to work at her day job at the state health department as an analyst, then attended her part time evening job at Publix, as a baker.

We know she made it home, got in bed, was reading her prenatal book because by now she was four months pregnant. Sometime after that things went dark.

It was out of character for her because Ali missed a scheduled appointment with her estranged husband, she didn’t attend work, and things just got quiet. There has been no sign or trace of Ali for 18 years to today.

This case is not what it may seem. Ali had support, she had friends, a husband even through their issues, her parents, but there is something missing. There is a piece of the puzzle that we know is there, but finding the connecting piece is the challenge — a possible motive and a person of interest. I’ll tell you one thing, it wasn’t her husband, James.

On Sunday, December 18, 2011, in Spanish Lake, Missouri, 23 year old Phoenix Coldon disappeared after leaving her driveway on the 12600 block of Countrybrook Drive.

Oddly, hours after she left her home, her 1998 black Chevy Blazer truck was found across state lines in East Saint Louis, Illinois, parked, and seemingly left abandoned with no signs of Phoenix nor any sign of a struggle.

Over the last 13 years from today in 2024, there has been several interviews with her parents, a few sightings that were confirmed to not be Phoenix, but one that was rather questionable from a friend in passing. With that, you also have a strange call to her mother around two months after her disappearance from someone in Beverly Hills, and an interesting discovery that populated soon after Phoenix disappeared that led them to an address. The lead in the other state was so solid that it makes you question everything. It makes you question exactly who Phoenix was, who was around her, and most importantly, what did she need to settle and with who…and where is she today.

My most requested case, with the most convoluted details to the point where nothing is at all what it may seem.

The thing with this case is that there are a number of elements that just doesn’t make sense, but today, we’re going to try to make sense of what we do have. I guarantee that once you silence the public opinion, and actually look at the case from a unique angle with fresh ears and eyes, you may have a difference of opinion of what may have happened.

This case is a convoluted one with full of lies, but I believe the answers aren’t too far away.

Today we will be covering the missing person case of Kelly Allen. This case is the first of our minisode series due to the lack of details on the case. With that, a full case analysis is not possible right now to conduct.

She went missing in Berkeley, MO after attending a job interview. Her moments after are unclear, which has left her family with nearly 20 years of unexplained mystery, until what they thought was and possibly still might be a promising lead — a photo that may indicate something about Kelly or what became of her.

This is where we’re left in the case. No intricate details, no updates, and no closure.

When I look at these cases, it’s just people going about their day. They don’t wake up and know they will be missing. I don’t believe anyone is prepared for that, especially for a case so cold where they’re gone without a trace for nearly 20 years.

We’re going to discuss the public case details that have been reported, the days leading up to her disappearance, and the sighting. We’re going to breakdown every detail and discuss possibilities. A case like this is freezing cold, with hardly any movement, and without any solid details.

On the cold afternoon of Sunday, December 11, 1994, in Livonia, Michigan, four year old D’Wan Sims was reported missing. D’Wan was accompanied by his mom on an afternoon outing at a local mall to do some shopping, but that outing turned grim when he just…seemingly vanished.

No trace of him was ever found. It even brought into question as to was he ever there. Law enforcement performed a heavy search in the mall and surrounding areas. Little D’Wan did receive coverage, but it just didn’t produce any positive or negative outcome. In fact, it left the community of Livonia in mystery and decades of uncertainty.

An innocent child, gone — just vanished. Like I always say, we know someone doesn’t just vanish.

When you look at the facts of the case, it makes you question everything. It makes you question the moments after D’Wan was reported, but it also makes you question what happened before to explain the oddities on the surveillance footage. You will soon see that it’s true that four year old D’Wan Sims was missing, and still is, but you will also see that there is something is missing, something off. There is a missing piece of the puzzle, or possibly a gap in the investigation. Not everything is always what it may seem. Someone knows something, and that someone — our most vital subject, most likely has the answer, but there’s a possibility, as dark as this may sound, that it was taken to the grave.

On the cold evening of Monday, December 30, 2019 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, just less than 48 hours into the new year of 2020 — the monumental year that has caused total transformation in our world — 22 year old Tonee Turner went missing in Pittsburgh on what seemed to be just an ordinary day during her from work to home trek.

Everyone saw her, they knew her, she was even in contact with family within hours to minutes of her going missing, then something happened and things went dark. Until later that evening, when her family was notified of an interesting and nearly groundbreaking discovery in the most odd location, that could have led to some answers, or just another element to throw things off — and we’ve seen that before. Initially, this was not a cause for concern, but later you will find there may have been something there.

On Thursday, July 23, 2020, somewhere along a nearly 2,000 mile road trip — that appeared to be a spur of the moment trip of hopes, dreams, and a what seems to be a puzzling mystery; 28 year old Davante Richardson left his home in Washington, DC to Wyoming to see a friend with what seemed to be a trip to pursue something or a meeting to gain some form of relationship.

We know he was in the process of building his business, he had the skill, and was set to go far in his newfound career choice — a talent that he had, but something went terribly wrong. The odd texts, the particular person he was alleged to have been attempting to go visit which is a renowned artist in today’s popular culture, the tweets, an unconfirmed witness statement of a mysterious woman at a gas station, and then everything suddenly went dark — all communication just stopped. Nothing.

Until just days later, his 2016 Jeep appeared in a remote location nearly 30 hours from his home in the nation’s capital, but only 12 miles from the artists property.

A case like this makes you question everything. Could there be a best kept secret that lies in the vast land of Greybull, Wyoming? Could something more sinister happened? A body can't hide itself. Either he walked away, or someone had a hand in this.

On Sunday, May 16, 1976, in Austin, Texas, 20-year old Jennifer Barton had left home to hang out with a friend to go to the movies. Jennifer spent what we now know as her last moments on record at a local bar. One minute she was there, and next she was gone, but there’s always more to the story.

Both friends seemingly never made it to the movie theater. After a quick stop at a local bar, with a friend, two men, a mysterious van, it ended in nearly 50 years of mystery and unanswered questions.

For decades, Jennifer’s case has gone unsolved without a trace. Some don’t think she ever left Austin, then some think she may have left to go to California. Some blame her lifestyle as the reason this case remains unsolved.

When you look at the details, there may have been some signs leading up to Jennifer’s disappearance. This vanishing of Jennifer may not have come by surprise. It appears she may have knew something was headed her way or harboring a secret.

What we don’t know is, was this disappearance executed at random or was it in connection of something she may have been involved in by means of retaliation?
