Four more Orlando victims are covered in this season and there is an interview with Donnie Vaughn, the child who was 5 months old when his mother Emma Vaughn went missing in 1982.Music this season courtesy of Blue Dot Sessions

Mabel Andrews' brother Tommie Lee Andrews was the first person in the United States to be convicted of a crime using DNA evidence.

The cases of Mabel Andrews (16) and Nancy Grace Daniel (14) are thought to be related, but the details are complicated. Both young women never returned to their Orlando, Florida area homes after going missing just months apart in 1976.

9-year-old Likisha Battle was sent on an errand by her mother one Sunday morning in the summer of 1982, but never returned home. Her body was found in a wooded area behind their apartment complex two days later.

Emma Vaughn was allegedly last seen walking down Robinson Street in Orlando, Florida on July 10th, 1982. She was 14 years old and had given birth to a baby boy just 5 months before she suddenly disappeared.

On February 22, 1972, around 8a.m., the bodies of Shirley Elizabeth Whitten (19) and Roger Dale Higgins (26) were discovered in the Oak Grove Cemetery at the end of CR 232 in Wildwood, Florida. Both were stabbed multiple times. Shirley Whitten worked at the Union 76 Truck Stop at the time of her death. Roger Dale Higgins had just started working for a moving company and had stopped in to rest at the truck stop with his employer.If you or someone you know has information regarding this case, please contact Captain John Galvin with the Sumter County Sheriff’s office by phone at 352-569-1600 or by email at [email protected] by Blue Dot Sessions
