In 1987, near Lake Mead at Bonelli Landing, a rancher discovered a human skull and remains wrapped in a yellow blanket and buried in a shallow grave. They became another unidentified Jane Doe, her identity lost to time.

The sound of an argument carried down the hallway of a central Las Vegas home. It was around two in the afternoon on September 2, 2023, when Juan and his family heard his roommate, 46-year-old Danelle Mask, yell, “I’m going to kill you,” and 59-year-old Jason Williams shout back, “Do it.” Juan knew it was best to take his kids and leave the house immediately. An hour or so later, Jason would be found slumped and bleeding on the porch of that same home, a single stab wound to his chest. https:/...

Las Vegas has long been plagued by high rates of violent crime—and a disturbingly low rate of resolution. In this anthology episode, we share the stories of four unsolved murders: Eugene Bell, Brittney Biggs, Celia Luna Delgado, and John Norris. Each case is tragic, each one baffling—and each deserves answers. Some of these victims were barely covered in the press. Others were quickly forgotten. But all left behind, grieving families who are still waiting for justice. We’re bringing their stor...

When someone is murdered in Las Vegas, headlines tend to follow a pattern: mention the crime and include a short, impersonal description of the victim. In March of 2018, the headlines read, “homeless woman murdered.” That was the phrase police and the press used to describe the death of Kelly Kazoon. But Kelly wasn’t just a homeless woman. She was a widow, a mother, and a friend. The man who killed her would try to say he had just blacked out and couldn’t remember what happened, but the eviden...

Jamey Walker was a member of one of the most beloved and consequential families ever to have lived on Las Vegas’s Historic West Side.

When people think about Lake Mead, they picture sunshine, water, and long weekends. But the stories we’re telling in this episode don’t end up in a photo album. They end in silence, suspicion, and grief. A missing mother. A woman whose name no one knew. A Marine who never made it home. A child left to drown. And a young immigrant weighed down in the water. These are stories the lake didn’t hide. They're stories we’ve chosen not to see. https://sinspod.co/86 https://sinspod.co/86blog https://s...
