June 11, 2023 Episode 502 - Grocery Store Ambush
On May 4th, 2006, at around 10:00 PM 60-year-old Security Guard Frutoso Anguiano was on duty at the Northgate Gonzalez Market on 831 Hacienda Boulevard in La Puente, CA. As the store was about to close Anguiano went to the rear of the store and up to a second floor break room where he was met by four Hispanic men. Anguiano was handcuffed and stabbed fifty-two times. Surveillance video shows the four men mingling around the store prior to closing and then disappearing into the back. The video didn’t show the murder but caught the men coming down the stairs wearing masks and holding the gun they had taken from Anguiano. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Cold Case Detective Shaun McCarthy tells us his working theory on the attack and how DNA might lead him to one of the men who lives in another state.

February 26, 2023 Episode 406 - A Murderous Hail Mary.
Case #1: On November 4th, 1969 at 7:40 AM, 14-year-old Janasul ‘Jan’ Roseana Marsh was found face down near a home in Lynwood. Detectives say she was strangled with a polo shirt. Jan had a reputation of hanging with the wrong crowd, including older men. At one point there were more than 20 persons of interest, including a few women. What made this case even more complicated is the Lynwood Police Department disbanded in 1977 and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department picked up the case, forcing a transfer of boxes of evidence and files, a lot of which were misplaced. Case #2: 19-year-old Michelle Diaz had 2 jobs and had applied to Arizona State University to pursue a medical career. On November 21, 2020, Diaz was shot and killed in front of a home on 106th Street in Unincorporated Los Angeles. Investigators say there were many witnesses, but none are willing to come forward.
