Unforgotten

20-year-old Rickem Samuel was last seen on April 2, 2016, getting into a black 4-door Nissan Versa at the Eastern Boulevard Walmart with two of his coworkers from Hyundai Glovis. On June 30, 2016, Rickem's body was located in the 300 block of South Hopper Street. His mother Ericka Davis sat in with us for a discussion about his case, so you’ll hear from Ericka as well as hear the replay of season 1 episode 2’s feature of Rickem.

In this episode, we bring you the 1967 mysterious and unsolved homicide of Mary Faye Hunter from Decatur in Morgan County, Alabama. Like so many cases, there’s little left of the original investigation. And, though officially open, the case is not active except by her only living relative, a nephew, Jamie Hunter, along with his friend and researcher/author Brad Golson. We share some audio clips from an interview with this duo as well as an interview with the then very young girls, who found Mary Faye’s remains. There are many resources and theories about her murder and we’ll share some of these resources below. But a good Google search will bring you a treasure trove of information. 

But our hope is as long as we and all of you out there keep Mary Faye’s story alive, that someone will come forward and finally give her and her family resolution. #MaryFayeHunter #WhatHappenedToMaryFayeHunter MorganCountyAL #DecaturAL

We are back with part two of Danniella Vian’s case discussion, the case that ignited the ACCA. On July 17, 2018, Danniella Vian disappeared after a night out celebrating the purchase of her car and a positive outlook on her future, only to be found over 9 months later in her car, in the Bayou Sara. Was she a victim of foul play or was this a devastating accident? Join us as we discuss the odd series of events that unfolded the night Danniella disappeared, her discovery, and the aftermath of it all.

Well, Season 1 has come to an end. As they close this chapter, Sellers and Stormy get a little silly, discuss a couple happenings in the news, reflect on this season, and give a little hint at the upcoming year. (Also, a complete aside, so you don’t think Stormy was imagining a character in a movie or you were yelling at us what the movie was (and you’ll understand once you listen): Ender’s Game! 

Thank you to everyone for a special season, for sharing the cases, and the families for trusting us with their loved one's plight.

On a Saturday evening, at the end of spring break 1973, Tuscaloosa University of Alabama student Paula Lee Ellis went out to dinner with friends, stopped to see her brother, and then decided to head to an on-campus all-night concert festival at the Woods Quad on a bike. Leaving her dorm, which was only a few hundred yards from her destination, it would be the last time any of her friends would see her alive.

Join us and Capt. Jack Kennedy from the Tuscaloosa Co SO Violent Crimes Unit as we discuss Paula’s case. If you were at the UA campus or the Spring Rave-Up on April 21st or 22nd, 1973, you may have taken some pictures that may have caught something important you hadn't noticed previously. You may have seen Paula on her bike or even with someone. Even all these years later, you may remember the smallest detail or someone has since shared something that's nagging you.
