Moms Who Murder II

On September 10, 2022, Debbie Collier’s daughter received a Venmo payment with an alarming message.  “They are not going to let me go love you there is a key to the house in the blue flower pot by the door”.  The payment was for $2,385.    Debbie was never seen alive again.  Shortly after the payment was made,  Debbie was found naked and burned in a wooded area, around 60 miles away from her home.  She was found clutching a small tree.  Her cause of death has not been made public, but police have said there is no evidence of either suicide or kidnapping. Debbie’s case is one of the strangest we have ever encountered.  She was caught on CCTV, alone at a dollar store, around the time that the Venmo payment was made.  Debbie purchased items that were found at her death scene.   There have been rumors about Debbie’s daughter being involved in the death.  Or was this a mental break that ended in death?  There are NO answers in Debbie’s case to date, even with the FBI joining the investigation.  WHAT IS GOING ON? Join us for this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast where we discuss the bizarre unsolved death of Georgia woman, Debbie Collier. You can read our blog for Debbie here - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2022/09/21/missing-georgia-woman-debbie-collier-found-dead-naked-and-burned/   In this episode, we also discuss the ongoing legal battle involving Letecia Stauch, the woman accused of murdering her stepson Gannon Stauch.

Ellen Rae Greenberg seemed to have it all.  She was beautiful, successful, ambitious and engaged to the man of her dreams.   In January 2011, her partner Sam left their apartment and went to the gym in their complex.  When he came back under an hour later, the apartment door was allegedly bolted from the inside and he could not get in.  He frantically tried to contact Ellen and he ended up breaking down the door.   Inside, he found Ellen dead in their kitchen, with a knife sticking out of her chest.  She had more than 20 stab wounds, including many to the back of her head and neck.   Ellen’s death ended up being determined a suicide.  Her family have always disputed this and have pushed for over a decade for it to be reclassified.  In September 2022, the investigation into Ellen’s death was reopened. You can read our blog for this case - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2022/10/11/ellen-rae-greenberg-murder-or-suicide/ Did Ellen Rae Greenberg take her own life or was she murdered?

Often when a teenager goes missing, it’s assumed that they ran away.  According to a 2002 study, between 1.6 and 2.8 million teens run away each year. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast we discuss two different cases where it was assumed that teens had left of their own accord, only to find out that wasn’t the case. Alexandra Anaya (13) disappeared from her Indiana home in the early morning hours of August 13, 2005.  Police did not take her disappearance seriously to start and they assumed she would return quickly.  Alex’s dismembered torso was found in a river days later.  Her head and other body parts have never been found and no arrests have been made in this case. Andrew Gosden was 14 when he left his home in England in 2007.  He pretended that he was getting ready for school, but after everyone had left the home, he went back and changed into casual clothes and took a train to London. In 2021, two older men were arrested on suspicion of kidnapping and human trafficking in Andrew’s case.  He remains missing.

According to the United Nations Office on Drugs & Crime, 47,000 women and girls worldwide were killed by their intimate partners or other family members in 2020. This means that, on average, a woman or girl is killed by someone in her own family every 11 minutes. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the cases of three women who were likely murdered by their partners. Irene Gakwa met her boyfriend Nathan Hightman on Craigslist.  The two had an on-again, off-again relationship and Irene’s family did not know that the two were still living together in February 2022.  Irene spoke to her family in Kenya in late February this year and has not been seen again.  The day after she vanished, Nathan purchased a 55 gallon drum and was seen burning something in it.  He is not cooperating with police. Karina Castro had a fight over Snapchat in September 2022 with her estranged, violent partner Rafa Solano.  She threatened to tell everyone about Rafa’s sexual relationships.  The following day, Rafa turned up to Karina’s home with a samurai sword.  He beheaded her in the street outside her apartment, while her two young children were just feet away. Maya Millete and her husband Larry had been having marriage troubles in early 2021.  Maya was planning to separate from him and had consulted an attorney.  When Maya’s family could not get in touch with her, they went to her home and forced Larry to open the door to the room where he said Maya was.  Not surprisingly, the room was empty and Maya has not been seen since.  On the night of her disappearance, many loud gunshots were heard by neighbors.  Larry has since been arrested and charged with Maya’s murder – her remains have not been recovered.  Maya’s disappearance is a strange one that involves witchcraft and hexes that were initiated by Larry in an attempt to control her.

Lynette Dawson was last seen alive in Sydney, Australia in 1982.  She and her husband Chris Dawson had been having marriage trouble at the time.  Chris was a high-school teacher who seemed to have a penchant for preying on teenage girls.  He moved a student of his, named Joanne Curtis, into his home with Lyn under the guise of Joanne being a babysitter.  Chris was 34 at the time and Joanne was 16. Days after Lyn disappeared, Joanne Curtis moved into the Dawson home permanently.    Chris soon after married Joanne.  Joanne had Lyn’s engagement and wedding rings resized to fit her. Chris seemed to get away with the perfect crime for over 40 years.  In 2018, Chris was finally charged with Lyn’s murder.  He is now 74 years old. In August 2022, a judge found him guilty and Chris is awaiting sentencing. Will he reveal where he hid Lyn’s body or will he take that secret to the grave?   Join us for this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast as we discuss the disappearance of Lynette Dawson.

On Friday, September 2, 2022, Eliza Fletcher left her home for an early morning jog at around 4am.  She was an avid runner who had qualified for the Boston Marathon previously.  She often jogged at this time to fit in her daily exercise as she was a busy mother-of-two and a Junior Kindergarten teacher. A man named Cleotha Henderson was prowling the streets of Memphis, TN at this time.  He spotted Eliza running and pulled up ahead her of her in a dark SUV.  When Eliza reached his him, he jumped out and forced her into his vehicle.  This was the beginning of Eliza’s nightmare. Eliza’s body was found dumped near an abandoned house on September 6.  We are still waiting for confirmation of her cause of death.  Was Eliza targeted by Cleotha due to her family wealth or was this a terrifyingly random crime? Join us for this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast as we discuss the abduction and murder of Eliza Fletcher.

On July 30, 2022, Allahnia ‘Fruity’ Lenoir and a friend arranged to meet up with two men at an apartment complex in Atlanta.  Allahnia and the friend can be seen on CCTV entering the building.  Later on, the friend and the two men emerge and are captured on video. Allahnia is never seen leaving the complex.   After she vanished, the two men, Diante Reynolds and Steven Oboite cleaned the apartment thoroughly and moved out.    It took police more than a week to search the apartment.   Allahnia’s mother believes she has been ‘moved’ from the apartment.  Could she have been trafficked? Alexis Ware was acting strangely in January 2022.  She told her mother that the ‘devil’ would not stop contacting her, that a black truck was following her and that she would likely not be around to celebrate her 30th birthday in March 2022. On January 30, 2022, Alexis arranged to meet her ex at a gas station.  The plan was for him to give her gas money and then she would follow him in her vehicle back to a family member’s house.  Instead, after leaving the 7/11, Alexis turned sharply and drove off in the opposite direction.   She has never been seen again.  A few days after she vanished, her vehicle was found abandoned in a wooded area that Alexis would have been unfamiliar with.  Her phone and the hair bonnet that she had been wearing were also found at the scene.   Was Alexis really being stalked or was there something else going on in her case? Join us for this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast as we discuss the unrelated cases of missing women Allahnia Lenoir and Alexis Ware.  We also discuss a huge update in the case of Artesia Jane Doe, as well as some updated information in the Kiely Rodni case.

Kiely Rodni (16) has been recovered after being missing in Truckee, California for over two weeks.  Kiely was found deceased in her vehicle, in 14 feet of water, very close to where she was last seen alive.  How did police spend thousands of hours searching for her to no avail?   Adventures with Purpose searched the area and found Kiely within minutes.     In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast we discuss the recovery of missing people by volunteer team Adventures with Purpose (AWP).

Samantha Jean Hopper and her 22 month old daughter Courtney Holt disappeared from Russellville, Arkansas on September 11, 1998.  They remained missing for over TWENTY years before AWP pulled the vehicle containing their remains from the Illinois Bayou. Matthew ‘Jed’ Hall (16) left a note behind for his family when he left home for the final time in Idaho on January 22, 2018.  It seems that he intended to take his own life.  In May 2022, AWP searched the Snake River in Idaho for Jed, and found his remains in his vehicle, 50 feet from shore. Carey Mae Parker was a 23y/o mother-of-three who vanished in Texas on March 17, 1991.  Carey had been set to attend her son’s birthday party when she disappeared.  AWP searched for Carey in 2021, thirty years after she vanished.  The found her vehicle and her remains, along with a bicycle that she had purchased for her son’s birthday in Lake Tawakoni.
