Welcome to Season 2 of the Victim in Surprise.

When this podcast was originally conceived, the intention was to present it as one season to bring awareness to Amal Bahjat's brutal unsolved murder. The hope was to respark interest in her case and to reignite the police investigation to find Amal's killer. However, as we are entering into the 9th year of her unsolved cold case, host Eileen Zenn felt the urge to bring the podcast back for another season to keep alive the attention and focus to this case and to present more facts and details.

Through her work, Eileen has uncovered more information, some of which was very discouraging, but Eileen will not give up, and that is why we have returned.

In this season, we will look closely at the small details surrounding this case. In this episode, we shall introduce them to you, the listener. Based on updates from the Surprise police department's most recent report, we go back to where Eileen left off back in Season 1.

Special Thanks to Sandi Allen who covered Amal's case on her podcast Twisted Travels and True Crime. Click the name to listen.
