Sierra LaMar was 15 years old when she disappeared on the way to her school bus the morning of March 16th, 2012, which she never got the chance to board. Massive searches followed, and a volunteer team formed that searched weekly for over 3 years for her. DNA would lead to an arrest, but Sierra’s remain are still missing. As her Find a Grave site says, her family prays and hopes one day they can bring Sierra home to a proper resting place. This is her story.

According to indianlaw.org “…More than 1 in 2 Native American women have experienced sexual violence. Though available data is limited, the number of missing and murdered American Indian and Alaska Native women and the lack of a diligent and adequate federal response is extremely alarming to indigenous women, tribal governments, and communities. On some reservations, indigenous women are murdered at more than ten times the national average. Statistics define the scale of the problem, but do nothing to convey the experience of the epidemic.” Pepita Redhair is one of this Missing and murdered indigenous women. She went missing at the height of the global SARS CoV2 pandemic in March of 2020 for Albuquerque NM, where she lived with her boyfriend. This is her story.

The American psychological Association accounts that “one in three teens and young adult is the victim of physical, verbal, emotional, or sexual abuse by a dating partner”. National studies also show that one in ten high school students has been physically hurt by a boyfriend or girlfriend. For Lauren Dunne Astley and her love ones, this became all too real in July 2011. It was her senior year. The world was at Lauren and her boyfriend fingertips. 18. College bound. After three years together, before graduation, Lauren felt it was time to end the relationship. After that everything changed for worse.

On the evening of November 28, 2012, 26-year-old Emma Fillipoff caught an acquaintance’s attention as she stood barefoot, hugging shoes to her chest on a street corner. Uneasy, almost nervous about crossing. She showed other signs of distress too, as she looked over her shoulder time and time again as if she were expecting someone, or something to be following her. Not knowing what else to do, the acquaintance contacted authorities who spent 45 minutes with Emma before releasing her on her own recognizance as she walked into the dark, rainy evening alone… never to be seen or heard from again.

Today’s case is one that hits pretty close to home for me. It’s a case that happened in the church of a pastor that I know. This pastor happens to be the Uncle of my best friend of 29 years. I first told this case for The Murder Diaries when we were a baby podcast. My best friend joined and so did her cousin, David, the son the pastor. We’ll be including the phone call we had with him exploring the impact of this case on the community and his family. We’ve grown so much since I first told it and this case is so important me that I want to do better by it. I want to tell it again. This is the case of Jennifer Anne Moore.

Maya vanished almost exactly a year ago, leaving behind all of her personal effects and her three young children. The last person to see Maya alive was her husband Larry. Is this a case of "the husband did it?" Maybe. However, until he gets his day in court, he’s presumed innocent... even if it appears otherwise. And without Maya's body, prosecutors will be facing an uphill battle in his upcoming trial.
