True Consequences - True Crime

17-year-old Nettie Melendez had a big day ahead of her, and plans for her bright future. June 5th, 1989, was just the beginning: her high school graduation. But when her name was called onstage to get her diploma, Nettie was nowhere to be found. Her family started to panic. Nettie was responsible, and it was highly unlike her to miss such an important event. Their panic ended in tragedy when her body was recovered after a family search the next day. To this day, her case still remains unsolved. This is “The Murder of Nettie Melendez” from Murder, She Told. Originally published in January 2023.

Today I’m going to tell you about one of the most significant events in New Mexico's history. The Pueblo Revolt. While the Pueblo Revolt didn’t permanently drive the Spanish out of New Mexico, it was successful in ending years of cruelty and exploitation of the Pueblo people by Spanish settlers. There had been several uprisings before the Revolt, but they had only succeeded in furthering the abuse. The Pueblo Revolt gave the Tribes autonomy and freedom.

Today I am bringing you another family interview. This case is tragic, and it deals with addiction and murder so listener discretion is advised. Some names have been omitted or changed to protect the integrity of the investigation. All the music on today’s episode was written and produced by the victim in today’s story Zachariah Juwaun Shorty. It’s important to note that we reached out to Farmington PD, Navajo Nation PD, the FBI, DOJ, and the State Police for records related to this case and we were either ignored or denied any records on Zach’s case.

Jacob Jeremiah Landin was a bright and happy baby. He was a joy to be around. We didn't know he was being abused by my mom's boyfriend. In 1987 he was abused so terribly that it lead to his death. The person responsible was never charged or prosecuted. Listen as I speak with my mom, Brenda, about my brother's case.

Hi Everyone-

So sorry for the delay. I had a sinus infection that led to me losing my voice and generally not feeling well. Today I wanted to re-release this interview I did with Amanda Kimbrel-Romero early on in the show. This episode was about Justice for Collin and Ahmed. If you listen to the end of the episode you will get an update on the case. I am forever grateful to Amanda for helping me change my mind about fighting for justice for Jacob.
