21 JAN 2024 · In 1979 a 19-year-old woman was found brutally beaten and stabbed to death near what was then the old “El Rancho Hotel” near the Las Vegas Strip. For decades she remained a ‘Jane Doe’ or as detectives nicknamed her, ‘Sahara Sue Doe’. In December of 2023 new DNA technology allowed a cold case detective with the Las Vegas Metro Police Department to contact a probable relative in California. The call paid off and Sahara Sue Doe became Gwenn Marie Story, a teenager from Cincinnati, Ohio who had initially planned a trip to California to find her real father. But the stop in Las Vegas with two male friends would prove deadly. Case #2, Detective Eric Ogaz with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department talks about Scott Echols, an 8-year-old boy who, in 1992, answered the door at his home late one night and mysteriously disappeared.

14 JAN 2024 · On January 15th, 1947, the mutilated body of Elizabeth Short was found in Leimert Park, a public space located in South Los Angeles. Someone had performed an hemicorporectomy, the act of cutting a body in half at a specific point of the body. The woman who first spotted the body out in the open thought it was a mannequin, mostly because the skin color was so pale, a result of Short’s fluids and blood being completely drained from her body. In this Anniversary edition we speak with case expert Steve Hodel, a retired detective with the Los Angeles Police Department. Not only is Hodel entrenched in the case, he also has a personal connection.

7 JAN 2024 · On October 28th, 2006, in an unincorporated area of Los Angeles County, a man was shot and killed at a birthday party over an older, long-standing personal grudge. Investigators with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau quickly identified a suspect. A few days later, November 2nd, more than two dozen deputies, along with detectives, were serving a search warrant at a house in the Willowbrook area. A number of men were inside the home and as deputies detained them on the porch to wait, three men appeared from across the street and opened fire. Miraculously, none of the deputies, detectives, or detainees were hit. But a 12-year-old girl watching the commotion from her driveway next door was struck through her chest by a round from an AK-47. She died on scene. Her 15-year-old friend was injured and the shooter(s) are still at large.

24 DEC 2023 · In this special edition of Unsolved with Steve Gregory we look back at homicides that happened between the traditional holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s – cases from Southern California and around the country. Many experts say the holiday season is a major stressor for people and some of the motivations behind holiday homicides include money, loneliness, and domestic issues. We look at murders as far back as 1881 and as recent as 2022. The cases come from all walks of life, including a poverty-stricken community in Kentucky and an upscale neighborhood in Chicago. The killers include a tobacco sharecropper, a former engineer with JPL, a desperate roommate, and an 18-year-old who didn’t want to pay rent.
