Part two of our series covering the disappearance of Pat Allen Guild, and exploring the investigation into his disappearance. Patrick "Pat" Allen Guild moved to Nashville with dreams of making it big in the songwriting business. But things didn't work out as he planned; he spent his time in the city living in its unhoused community, in an encampment near the I-24 overpass. Pat was last heard from around December of 1991—and since then, there's been no trace of him. Now, his adult daughter, Shannon, is trying to work backward to separate the threads of her father's life, and piece together the bits of information she's discovered to find out what, exactly, happened to her father. It's not a pleasant journey for her; her own mother was afraid of Pat, and for good reason. But more than anything, Shannon need to know—she needs resolution.

In March of 1976, a young woman was discovered, with no obvious trauma, in the Harpeth River in Nashville; she carried on her a picture of a little boy, and a trail that led to witnesses who said she'd hitchhiked with a mysterious friend, all the way from Minnesota—but that trail led nowhere. Without the possibility of DNA testing, the best shot of identifying "Sherry" Jane Doe is using her extremely accurate forensic art, and the details she shared of her life—and, perhaps, a daughter that ties her to South Carolina. The Fall Line has commissioned new isolated forensic art of her teeth to share with the public in hopes that this information will aid in identification; you can see this image and all others associated with the case on our website.

In March of 1998, a homicide victim was recovered from Nashville's Cumberland River, with nothing to indicate who she might be, and the best clue to her identity a "Leo" astrological charm; now, investigative genetic genealogy is the best path toward her name, but the trail has stopped short in an Alabama county, and investigators are seeking your help.

Roycinda Alexander thought that justice would come swiftly for her son, Darren Gray, who was murdered in public, in a city park, during his own child's birthday party—but she soon discovered that the neighborhood she'd raised her family in began to feel like a land of strangers. On May 8th, 2010, 24-year-old Darren Gray attended his child's birthday party at a Norfolk-area public park; during the celebration, he was attacked by a group of men and endured a brutal beating that ended in his murder. Close to 13 years later, his mother and siblings have more questions than answers, and though some suspects were identified—and eventually, convicted—of Darren's beating, his murderers remain at large.

On May 8th, 2010, 24-year-old Darren Gray attended his child's birthday party at a Norfolk-area public park; during the celebration, he was attacked by a group of men and endured a brutal beating that ended in his murder. Close to 13 years later, his mother and siblings have more questions than answers, and though some suspects were identified—and eventually, convicted—of Darren's beating, his murderers remain at large.

This week, we take a deep dive into what it takes to construct an entirely new database--from the ground up--of a database that not only collects data on the missing and unidentified, but hopes to use that research to assist the communities least likely to receive resources, and most likely to remain unidentified after death. We analyze the construction of the new Mississippi Repository for the Missing and Unidentified, explore its unique "mapping" system for identifying clusters of the missing, and speak with its creators, two MSU professors, Drs. Jordan Lynton Cox and Jesse Goliath.

In 1985, Ventura County teen Tyra Garcia disappeared; her family knew she hadn't run away, but they saw local authorities assumed Tyra would return. That was the attitude until Tyra's body was discovered in an orchard near her home, wrapped in a blanket, and tied with a cord. Now, Tyra's sister Tanya has had her case 'reactiviated' and, with the help of advocate Maria, is pursuing answers.

This week, in honor of National Native American Heritage Day, we are re-releasing one of our most popular series: our three-part interview with Carolyn DeFord. In the final installment in our series covering the life of MMIW advocate and daughter of a missing person, Carolyn DeFord, we learn how the disappearance of her mother, Leona Kinsey, has shaped her current world--and work--and the crisis she sees in MMIWCR cases; disappearances and murders are undercounted, underreported, misclassified, and rarely addressed outside action groups and specific political campaigns. Carolyn, and advocates like her, are changing that. And they need your help.

In the early morning hours of September 28, 2015, Joseph Smedley, who was an Indiana University student, chemistry major, and Sigma Pi fraternity brother, sent his sister, Vivanne, a strange late-night text message: she shouldn't try to contact him—he was leaving the country. Vivianne knew something was wrong; she began a near-week long search for her brother that ended when his body was pulled from a nearby lake. A bookbag weighed down with close to 70 lbs of rock was strapped to his body. Joseph's death was ruled a suicide, and his case was closed. Today, his sister, Vivianne, and a local Indiana podcaster, Stacy Bridavsky, are working to have his case re-examined. Thanks again Vessi!

We're a show primarily focused on the Southeastern United States, but this week, Kristen Seavey of Murder, She Told walks us through some of New England's least-known cold cases that are in most need of advocacy and support--and tells us how a victim's advocate can participate in the genre of true crime to enact change.

On Friday, June 7th, 1985, Nashville's The Fan Fair, also known as "The Country Explosion" was days from its grand opening, and the city was flooded with strangers; the same afternoon, a man named Ricky Lee Franks would return to Nashville, his hometown, and see his family—briefly—before disappearing. Ricky Lee Franks had been living in a group home in Dickson, TN, and no one—not the cold-case detective now assigned to his case, or Ricky's eldest sister, Sylvia—is quite sure how Ricky made his way back to Nashville that Friday. They also don't know what happened afterward. . . though there have been leads that have taken investigators across state lines. That's because years later, his family would hear startling reports of a stranger, calling himself Ricky Franks, traveling across the Southeast. This two-part series looks at Ricky's disappearance and Sylvia's near-40-year-quest to find her brother.

Warner Robins, Georgia is a military town that is attractive to families seeking affordable housing and good schools--and few long-term missing-persons cases. The oldest case on record is the disappearance of Bula Mae Robertson, a local mother who vanished late one night in October of 1993, leaving her teenage daughters and extended family without any sign as to where she might have gone, or what could have happened to her. Now, with the aid of a reward, investigators and Bula's family hope that her case can be resolved.

Eric Carter-Landin didn't set out to be an advocate; but as the family member of a murder victim whose case was closed, he watched other disturbing cases unfold in his home state of New Mexico, and he felt called to do something about it: to help families, to shine a light on the failings in the system, and, eventually, to seek justice for his own brother, who was was killed at only nine months old.
