To an outsider, it might seem like there isn’t a lot going on in Lebanon, Missouri. There is a Route 66 museum, a Walmart, a bowling alley, and a few shops. It’s less than 15 square miles and has about 14,000 residents. But if current trends hold, there’s a 1 in 19 chance that you will be a victim of a violent crime, making it one of the most violent areas in the United States. Because of its violent past and proximity to the Ozarks--an area with a surprising amount of unsolved missing person's cases--Cassidy Rainwater’s mysterious disappearance garnered media attention. cases--Cassidy Rainwater’s mysterious disappearance garnered media attention.

The Disappearance of Kandi Green Gonzalez

October 20, 2021

•

19m

In well publicized missing persons cases, the police usually make it a point to let the public know that they are tirelessly working on bringing the victim home and bringing the perpetrator to justice. And that’s their job, no matter the circumstances, which is why it is so upsetting when it feels like they’re doing the exact opposite. After Kandi Green Gonzalez disappeared, it seems as if the very people who are supposed to be helping find the missing 36 year old from Kentucky were the ones slowing the investigation down. In the months since Kandi was thrown out of her home that she shared with the former Sheriff’s son, her family has met nothing but deadends and have conducted much of the investigation on their own. Are the police really doing all they can to find Kandi or is there more to this story than they are letting on?

The Murder of Karen Buckley

Some of the killers we've talked about had terrible childhoods filled with abuse and unimaginable grief. Some have convinced themselves that their potential gains, maybe money or protecting a secret, justify their crime. And while none of this justifies murder, it can helps us try to better make sense of a horrible tragedy. But there is no such motive or sympathetic backstory for the man who brutally killed Karen Buckley, a 24 year old Irish nurse and master's student, who was enjoying a night out with friends in Glasgow in April 2015. As the judge said in his sentencing, Alexander Pacteau, was a "callous and calculating" murderer who took the life of a young woman who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
