Episode 321: The Caretaker Killer Christine Falling

Between 1978 and 1990, several murder victims were found along major highways in the US, in states including Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Many of the victims were unidentified for years, but they all had one thing in common: they were all redheads or had reddish-colored hair. Because of this detail, the series of murders became known as the redhead murders, but they all remain unsolved to this day; however, there are at least 5, likely many more, murders that may be connected and still sit unsolved.

In March 1995, a body was discovered in a fridge in an irrigation canal in northern California. Unfortunately, the female victim of the blunt force trauma homicide couldn’t be identified… and it remained that way for nearly 30 years. In 2023, thanks to genetic genealogy, the victim was identified as Amanda Lynn Schumann Deza. Mandy was last seen in 1994, but her whereabouts before her death were unknown. Thankfully, her family finally knows what happened to her, but her case remains unsolved and she does not have justice. There is a $10,000 reward for any information leading to her killer’s arrest. Anyone with information about Mandy Deza's death or possible details about her murder can contact the sheriff’s office at (209) 468-5087 or by email at coldcase@sjgov.org.

Dorothy Jane Scott was a 32-year-old single mother from Anaheim, California, whose mysterious disappearance and murder in 1980 remain unsolved to this day. On May 28, she vanished after leaving a hospital where she had taken a coworker for treatment—her car was later found burning in an alley, but she was nowhere to be found. For years, Dorothy’s family received chilling phone calls from an anonymous man who claimed to love her and admitted to killing her, revealing details only the killer could know. In 1984, her charred remains were discovered near Santa Ana Canyon Road, but the cause of death could not be determined. Despite an extensive investigation and haunting clues, no suspect was ever identified.

In 2007, Tiffany Rubin, a special education teacher from Queens, New York, was sharing joint custody of her 6-year-old son, Kobe Lee, with her ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Lee. During a scheduled visit, Lee abducted Kobe and secretly took him to South Korea, his native country, without informing Tiffany. Tiffany flew to South Korea with the help of some amazing people with the American Association for Lost Children, after receiving a tip via her MySpace page from a local teacher who had seen Kobe. Tiffany successfully returned Kobe to the U.S., and her story became a powerful example of a mother’s determination and love.
