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. Nearly 40 years later, on July 15, 2025, forensic scientists matched dental records and confirmed that those remains belonged to San Diego nurse Carol Ann Riley, who vanished in 1986 after a date with a man later revealed to be serial murderer Robert Dean Weeks. https://sinspod...

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:/...

Ash Armand / Akshaya Kubiak portrayed himself as a spiritual zen master, along with being a reality TV personality on the series "Gigolos" on ShowTime. The show runners said they knew one of these guys would do something stupid, but they had no idea it would be Ash, and they had no idea he was capable of murder. In this week's episode, we have a special extended collab with Sherry from the Alleged Actually podcast. We'll explore what we learned about Hurleen Dulai, his amazing client and victim...

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. Her mother, her father, and her grandmother were all well-known and highly regarded, going back to the 1960s and earlier. On Mother's Day 1981, a day when Jamey planned to spend time with her mom and grandmother, the unthinkable happened. She disappeared without a trace. Kidnapped. Gone.  Her panicked family did what they were told, but they couldn't prevent the unimaginable from happening to her. https://sinspod.co/88 https://sinspod.co/88blog https://sinspod.co/88sources https://sinspod.co/88sub (Substack Article) Domestic Violence Resources http://sinspod.co/resources Click here to become a member of our Patreon! https://sinspod.co/patreon Visit and join our Patreon now and access our ad-free episodes and exclusive bonus content & schwag!

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...

In the summer of 2022, Lake Mead dropped to its lowest levels in almost a century. The shoreline crept back. Boats that had been swallowed years ago sat beached in the sand like ghosts. But that wasn't all the lake revealed. Lake Mead has long been a getaway for families, boaters, and hikers. But it’s also one of the deadliest national parks in the country. People vanish. Accidents happen. But every so often, the lake gives up a secret. https://sinspod.co/85 https://sinspod.co/85blog https://s...

She was searching for freedom and in a hurry to grow up after high school, just like so many teenagers are, even today.

Just a few months later her mom got the call that every mother dreads… From the Clark County coroner. https://sinspod.co/84 https://sinspod.co/84blog https://sinspod.co/84s...

A young mother found dead in 1994. A DNA breakthrough in 2024. Who was Melonie White—and who killed her?

“When I found out I was going to jail, I trusted in the system. I figured everything would be okay as long as I told them the truth. I had no idea how wrong I'd be.” In July of 2001, Blaise was a teenager with no criminal history, no motive, and no evidence linking her to the crime. And yet, she was charged with murder and facing the rest of her life behind bars.
