    Replay - Loyalty: Enrique Roman Martinez
    May 21 2025
    This is a replay of Enrique's story. It's been almost 5 years since the remains of Enrique Roman-Martinez washed ashore in North Carolina. Someone knows something.

    In May 2020, Fort Bragg Paratrooper SPC Enrique Roman-Martinez was reported missing at Cape Lookout on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. Days later, his decapitated head washed onto shore. Many questions about the circumstances surrounding Enrique’s murder have gone unanswered. Why did it take 19 hours for Enrique’s fellow soldiers to make a 911 call? Why was information withheld that could have helped in the investigation? Where was the loyalty that was expected of soldiers when wearing the uniform of the United States Army?

    Today, Dawn is joined by a very special guest - Enrique’s sister, Griselda Martinez. Griselda is a warrior in this fight for justice.

    Replay - Consequences: Jacob Landin
    Apr 29 2025
    On April 9, 1987, 9-month-old Jacob Landin was critically injured in his New Mexico home. He later died from blunt force trauma to the head.

    Join Dawn and special guest Eric Carter-Landin as they uncover Jacob’s story: a painful reminder that sometimes the danger is closer than we think, and that true heroes can rise from unimaginable heartbreak. This is Jacob’s story.

    Content Warning: This episode discusses child abuse, intimate partner violence, domestic abuse, and sexual abuse.

    Mar 11 2025
    Months went by and a 14-year-old's disappearance got little media attention. 23 years later, one woman is ensuring this story isn't forgotten.

    High School freshman Danielle Bell went to a party on the evening of September 28th, 2001 in Cantonment, Florida. It was the last time the 14-year-old was ever seen.

    Her loved ones describe her as “a stranger to nobody”. When she didn’t return home that fall evening, her heartbroken family clung to hope. They waited for the day Danielle would walk back through the front door.

    Still searching more than 23 years later, Danielle’s sister Bonnie sits down with me to share her story.

    We’re calling on YOU for help.

    If you have any information, please contact the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office Major Crimes Unit:
    (850) 436-9580
