The Fall Line: True Crime

In Part 2 of this series, Sonia Perez details the troubling discoveries she made that have left her with serious misgivings in the cause-of-death ruling in her mother’s case. After Cherokee Finley was found on the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Flathead Reservation on April 29, 1998, hypothermia was listed as the primary cause, but what Sonia saw at the scene—and later heard around town—led her to another possible scenario.  Pre order Laurah’s book LAY THEM TO REST: https://www.hachettebooks.com/titles/laurah-norton/lay-them-to-rest/9780306828805/ To donate to Cherokee’s headstone fund: https://www.gofundme.com/f/honoring-headstone-for-cherokee-finley -Go to https://www.functionofbeauty.com/FALLLINE to take your Hair Goals quiz, and you’ll save 25% on your first order. -Go to https://www.framebridge.com/ and use promo code FALLLINE to save an additional 15% off your first order. -Sign up today at https://www.butcherbox.com/FALLLINE to get a 10-14 lb turkey FREE with your first box Submit a case to The Fall Line: https://www.thefalllinepodcast.com/case-submissions   Written, researched, and hosted by Laurah Norton, with research assistance from Bryan Worters, Kim Fritz, Kyana Burgess, and Michaela Morrill/Interviews by Brooke Hargrove/Produced, scored, and engineered by Maura Currie/Content advisors are Brandy C.

Lillie “Cherokee” Squeque Finley was found deceased on the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Flathead Reservation on April 29, 1998--her cause of death ruled to be hypothermia, and an accident--but her daughter Sonia, and the rest of her family, have long believed that her death was suspicious, and hope to see her cause reopened.    To donate to Cherokee’s headstone fund: https://www.gofundme.com/f/honoring-headstone-for-cherokee-finley Pre order Laurah’s book LAY THEM TO REST: https://www.hachettebooks.com/titles/laurah-norton/lay-them-to-rest/9780306828805/ Go to Truebill at https://truebill.com/fallline to start canceling unneeded subscriptions today!  Everlywell is offering a special discount of 20% off an at-home lab test at everlywell.com/fallline   To get 15% off your next gift, go to UncommonGoods.com/Fall    Download Switchcraft for free and unlock the magical mystery!   Submit a case to The Fall Line: https://www.thefalllinepodcast.com/case-submissions   Written, researched, and hosted by Laurah Norton, with research assistance from Bryan Worters, Kim Fritz, Kyana Burgess, and Michaela Morrill/Interviews by Brooke Hargrove/Produced, scored, and engineered by Maura Currie/Content advisors are Brandy C.

It’s a question the families of the missing dream of asking; the families of homicide victims, too, but for very different reasons--because they’re tracking down a perpetrator, just beyond their reach--someone standing close enough to touch, with just one vital detail missing, or the mere suggestion of a suspect, with a thousand doors of possibility open before them. In nearly five years of broadcast, only a few cases covered on The Fall Line have been resolved--unidentified persons connected to Samuel Little have been successfully reunited with their identities.  But what about all the rest? This episode, we speak with several families who haven’t been featured in our previous Update episode, and give listeners information on what’s happening in the Millbrook case, the Victor Greenwood case, Geradline DeLoach’s investigation, and bring you interviews with Angel Turner (the sister of Georgia Moses), Carolyn DeFord, and Arlene Harbison (the niece of Juan Leon Laureles).    Go Fund Me For Leon Laureles Mural and PI:  https://gofund.me/8cbf74e8  Pre order Laurah’s book LAY THEM TO REST: https://www.hachettebooks.com/titles/laurah-norton/lay-them-to-rest/9780306828805/ Join 30 million fans across the globe and awaken your inner detective with June’s Journey!   Submit a case to The Fall Line: https://www.thefalllinepodcast.com/case-submissions   Written, researched, and hosted by Laurah Norton, with research assistance from Bryan Worters, Kim Fritz, and Kyana Burgess/Interviews by Brooke Hargrove/Produced, scored, and engineered by Maura Currie/Content advisors are Brandy C.

We explore one of the world’s most thorough indexes of Doe cases: Unidentified Wiki--and speak with its creator, who hadn’t finished high school when he began to compile information on both the most well-known and the most obscure cases of the unidentified in the United States and beyond. Armchair detectives and experts alike use his site to trade information and seek the identities of John and Jane Does past and present, hoping to match a missing persons case to a listing carefully gathered into the Encyclopedia of the Unidentified.  Pre order Laurah’s book LAY THEM TO REST: https://www.hachettebooks.com/titles/laurah-norton/lay-them-to-rest/9780306828805/ Unidentified Wiki: https://unidentified-awareness.fandom.com/wiki/Unidentified_Wiki Lincoln County Jane Doe: https://unidentified-awareness.fandom.com/wiki/Lincoln_County_Jane_Doe_(1989)#:~:text=Lincoln%20County%20Jane%20Doe%20was,but%20denied%20knowing%20her%20identity.

Timica James promised local authorities that she would keep her family from conducting their own investigation into the death of her son, Moses “Fat Man” Williams Jr., if local authorities solved his case within ten years; on February 5th 2022, that date will pass, with Moses’ murder still unsolved.  In part two of our deep dive into the life and death of Moses Williams Jr, and the far-reaching effects his murder has had on his family and community, we look at how much is known about Moses’ possible killers--and what it may take to resolve his case.   Pre order Laurah’s book LAY THEM TO REST: https://www.hachettebooks.com/titles/laurah-norton/lay-them-to-rest/9780306828805/ Submit a case to The Fall Line: https://www.thefalllinepodcast.com/case-submissions   Be sure to check out Generation Why from Wondery!
