Will Ellen Greenberg Finally Get Justice After More Than Decade-Long Legal Battle?

The disappearance of 9-year-old Melodee Buzzard is gripping the nation as investigators and the public ask the same urgent question: Where is Melodee? Surveillance footage shows Melodee with her mother, Ashlee Buzzard, before she vanished—but now Ashlee is back home, seen alone, and offering few answers. Adding to the concern, Ashlee was recently arrested on an unrelated charge and quickly released, sparking even more speculation about what she may know, and what she’s not saying. In this STS episode, Emmy Award-Winning Journalist Joel Waldman and Co-Host Karmela Waldman break down the latest developments, the timeline, the unanswered questions, and why so many believe Ashlee Buzzard may hold the key to finding Melodee. As police and the community continue searching, the pressure is mounting. Will Melodee be found? What really happened in the hours before she disappeared? And why hasn’t Ashlee come forward with more? Support the show & be a part of #STSNation:Donate to STS' Trial Travel: Https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/GJ...VENMO: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcastCheck out STS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorEmail: SurvivingTheSurvivor@gmail.com  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
