About this episode

The episode discusses the unsolved murder of a 13-year-old girl and the deaths of three older women in North Carolina in 1992.

In 1992, a 13-year-old from Hickory, North Carolina went missing from her home and was discovered murdered a few weeks later. Around the same time, three older women known to have high-risk lifestyles went missing and were found deceased. While two men were eventually arrested in those three deaths, no one was ever charged in the death of Isis Denise “Dee Dee” Dawkins. We also share an update on the Justin Lee Turner murder case from South Carolina, which we featured on Episode 82.
