Mitrice Richardson 24, went missing on September 17, 2009, after being released from a jail in Calabasas, California, after not paying her $89 bill at Geoffrey's Malibu restaurant. She was released in the middle of the night with no phone, no car, no purse and not dressed for the elements.

After a massive missing persons search and countless false sightings of Mitrice her body was discovered 11 months later by park rangers who were allegedly in the area to inspect an illegal marijuana grow site in a remote area.

There is still no official cause of death and her family believes she was murdered.... the big question: how did Mitrice end up in a remote area and how did she die?

This episode sheds new light on the case with new information and new interviews. Many of the interviews were conducted on what would have been her 34th birthday.

Mitrice Richardson was the daughter of Latice Sutton and Michael Richardson of Covina, California. She was an honors student and obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology in 2008 from California State University, Fullerton. At the time of her disappearance Mitrice was in a relationship with a woman, she was completing her internship and applying for graduate programs to complete her schooling to become a Psychologist.

To help pay for college Mitrice worked as a model for various beauty pageants and events including the Playboy Mansion's Hot Summer Nights Party.

Mitrice's family is pushing for this case to be re-examined to help jail reform in California.

NEW INTERVIEW: Missing Kyron's mother Desiree Young.

Kyron Hormon went missing from Skyline Elementary School in Portland Oregon USA, on June 4th, 2010. His step-mother Terri Horman took him to school that day, snapped a picture of him at his school science fair and then he disappeared without a trace.

His case is still considered by-far the largest criminal investigation case in Oregon state history.

Kyron's mother Desiree Young says she is using new technology and getting new tips that she feels will lead to a resolution in the case very soon. On the ninth anniversary of his disappearance she held a tearful news conference where she shared new details.

Before the news conference she spoke exclusively to True Crime Deadline host Matt Johnson who spent years covering the case.

"I love you Kyron, I miss you, I will never give up, I will never stop," said Desiree to True Crime Deadline podcast.

Young says after nine years she still believes Kyron is in the Portland metro area.

"I believe that he is still in Portland, I believe that Terri is a horrible person, and most likely did something horrible that day. But, I have to keep looking for him until I find out otherwise," Young said.

Kyron's step-mother Terri Horman has never been charged or named a suspect in the case. She has appeared on many national shows.

Terri says on June 4, 2010 she watched Kyron walk down the hall to his first class, however he never made it to class and he was marked as absent for the day.

After Terri says she left the school, she told investigators that she went to Fred Meyer Store, Drove her baby around to to help the infant fall asleep, went to the gym ad then posted pictures of Kyron on Facebook.

When Terri and Kaine Horman when to pick Kyron up from the bus stop, he was not there. Terri called the school and the school secretary called police.

Kyron's case has had many unbelievable twists and turns over the past nine years. Including allegations of Terri Horman hiring a landscaper to allegedly kill Kaine. Police were never able to substantiate those claims and no charges were ever brought against Terri.

Terri also reportedly failed two lie-detector tests and Kaine obtained a restraining order against her.

"This case has been featured on Oprah, Dr. Phil, newscasts around the country and everyone is galvanized by this case and this little boy," said former KPTV reporter Jaime Wilson.

Kyron Horman was 7 years old when he went missing in 2010. Kyron Richard Horman is described as a Caucasian male, light brown hair and blue eyes. Kyron wore glasses and was on the smaller side when he went missing. He is described as shy with a big warm smile.

Anyone with information in the case is encouraged to call the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office tip-line: +1-503-988-0560. There is a $50,000 case reward for information that leads to a resolution in his disappearance.

EXCLUSIVE:   Max Shacknai's mother Speaks Out about the mystery deaths of Rebecca Zahau & Max Shacknai. Both died in a historic San Diego mansion.

In a shocking PART 2, the case is blown wide open with a rare interview from Max Shacknai's mother Dr. Dina Shacknai. Dina believes both Rebecca Zahau and her 6 year old son Maxie were violently attacked and killed. She shares details of her years long private investigation and opens up about why she wants investigators to re-open the cases.

This episode includes new evidence including police interviews of neighbors who reported odd things at the Spreckels Mansion before the deaths and a never before released voicemail left by Rebecca that some say proves she was not suicidal over Max's injuries.

Dina talks candidly with host Matt Johnson about her relationship with her ex-husbands girlfriend Rebecca and what she was told about Rebecca's death.

The Case Of Rebecca Zahau and Max Shacknai is a fresh look at the evidence in two mysterious deaths at a multi-million dollar historic mansion.

The circumstances of Rebecca Zahau's death in 2011 left her family and law enforcement with opposing views on how she died.

32-year-old Rebecca Zahau was found bound, gagged, naked and hanging from a balcony of a historic Coronado mansion for everyone to see. There was a cryptic note painted on the bedroom door but no fingerprints on some of the items at the crime scene.

The shocking discovery came just days after her boyfriend's son Max fell to his death from the grand staircase at the 27 room beachfront estate while under Rebecca's care, according to police. 

In 2018, a civil jury found Rebecca's boyfriend's brother Adam liable for her death. Adam, has maintained his innocence and denied all allegations against him and has never been criminally charged. In December 2018, following the civil trial and a case review, the San Diego Sheriff's Department, Coronado Police Department, and San Diego Medical Examiner's Department maintained Zahau's death was a suicide. 

This podcast explores theories from family members who disagree with police investigators, actual 911 calls, witness interviews and reporter Matt Johnson's first hand account of covering the case from day one.
