On September 26, 2016, 21-year-old Keeshae Jacobs told her mother, Toni, that she was going to spend the night at a friend’s house and that she would call the next morning. Keeshae never made it back to her home in Richmond, Virginia and Toni never heard from her daughter again. Keeshae’s mother immediately knew that this was not like her daughter and called family and then the police. In the two years since Keeshae has vanished, her brother has been murdered, and her mother has spent many sleepless nights looking for her daughter. This case is full of unanswered questions, mysterious characters and possibilities.

If you have any information about the disappearance of Keeshae Jacobs, please call the Richmond Police Department at 804-801-4503. You can also leave an anonymous message with Crime Stoppers at 804-780-1000.

EPISODE 153: Kathleen Mohn

EPISODE 153: Kathleen Mohn

48-year-old Kathleen Mohn was last seen at her home in the Gulph Mills section of Upper Merion Township, Pennsylvania on the evening of December 3, 1999.  Kathleen had intended on spending the weekend in Levittown, Pennsylvania, just about a 40 minute drive from her home. At this time in her life, Kathleen was living with her husband, Thomas Mohn. After over 20 years of marriage, the two had become estranged and had begun openly seeing other people, but they still remained living under one roof. Kathleen had spent most weekends with her boyfriend in Levittown and this weekend in early December was no different.  Her husband has said that she left the house around 9PM that evening but she never made it to her destination and her car was later found abandoned in Tullytown, PA.

For the past 19 years, the police have had one suspect in mind, but their evidence is circumstantial.  What they are certain of is that Kathleen didn’t just walk away from her life, the believe that she is a homicide victim.  They just need that key piece of evidence to bring her killer to justice.

On the evening of February 16, 2018, 20-year old Ryan Shtuka went to a silent disco with some of his friends in the resort town of Sun Peaks, British Columbia. Later on that evening, he and his friends went to a house party nearby. In the early morning hours of the 17th, Ryan was seen getting up to leave the house party to head back home after a fun night. Nothing appeared to be wrong or out of the ordinary. His friends thought Ryan was right behind them as they walked back on that cold, February night. However, Ryan Shtuka would never be seen or heard from again. Extensive searches have been conducted for Ryan but no trace of him has been found. What happened to Ryan during his walk home in Sun Peaks remains a mystery.
