  • Chapter 130: A Failure of Justice-The Murder of D’Lisa Kelley
    2026/02/04
    The 2014 unsolved murder of D’Lisa Kelley has raised serious questions about investigative decisions and accountability.In this episode, I explore the timeline of her case and the concerns surrounding the law enforcement response. The investigation draws additional scrutiny due to the involvement of a Dallas police sergeant who was later connected to the controversial 2016 death of Tony Timpa, a man who died while restrained by officers during a call for help. The overlap between these cases raises difficult but necessary questions about oversight, responsibility, and how repeated controversies can impact public trust and justice outcomes.If you have any information about the murder of D’Lisa Kelley, you can call the North Texas Crime Commission at 877-373-8477 or visit their website to submit a tip at www.ntcc.crimestoppersweb.comConnect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.comFeaturing a promo for Tragedy with a View:Hosted by Kayla, Tragedy with a View is an outdoor lover’s podcast for those who love true tales of tragic loss and unbelievable survival involving the wilderness, wildlife and weather.

  • Chapter 129: Small Town Silence-The Murder of Corinne Perry
    2026/01/28
    When 17-year-old Corinne Perry disappeared from Creston, Iowa, she seemed to vanish into thin air, leaving behind only an abandoned car and carefully folded clothes. The mystery of what happened in the hours before her death and just who was responsible has evaded investigators for decades. This is the story of a missing girl, which hit too close to home, so soon after another young boy went missing, leaving a community reeling.
    Anyone with information about the murder of Corinne Perry is asked to contact:
    The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation at (515) 725-6010, email dciinfo@dps.state.ia.us,
    or contact the Creston Police Department at (641) 782-8402.

  • Chapter 128: A Stranger Came Home-The Disappearance of Nicholas Barclay
    2026/01/21
    In 1994, 13-year-old Nicholas Barclay vanished from San Antonio, Texas, never to be seen again. Three years later, a young man claiming to be Nicholas resurfaced in Spain, but something wasn’t right. His accent was wrong. His appearance had changed. And the truth was far more disturbing than anyone imagined.

    3 years after I last covered it, I'm revisiting one of the most baffling missing persons cases I have ever come across, with a conman whose lies buried the mystery of what happened to a young teenager even further into obscurity.

    If you have any information on the disappearance of Nicholas Barclay, please contact the San Antonio Police at 210-207-7484

  • Chapter 127: Gone in the Dark-The Disappearance of Tera Lynn Smith
    2026/01/14
    18 years before Sherri Papini shocked the world with her kidnapping hoax, another girl vanished from Redding, California, but she never came home. When 16-year-old Tera Lynn Smith disappeared on a quiet night in August 1998, her family was desperate to find her, but they received far more questions than answers. As I revisit her story, I uncover a lesser-known connection to the Sherri Papini case that complicates an already heartbreaking mystery, and walk you through why one man had every reason to want Tera to never be found. If you or anyone you know has any information, you can contact the Shasta County Sheriff’s office Major Crimes unit at 530-245-6025. You can also email them at sheriff@co.shasta.ca.us, and the case number to reference is 98-25673.Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.com2202DFCA - Tera Lynn Smith.

  • Chapter 126: The Final Call-The Murder of Robbie Doerr
    2026/01/07
    What happens when the danger isn’t on the job, but waiting at home? Robbie Doerr was a veteran firefighter who never imagined the greatest threat would come from someone he trusted. When Evansville, Indiana, is rocked by the murder of a beloved member of their community, the police have very few clues to go on to find the killer. With no murder weapon, witnesses who saw nothing, and no known enemies to look into, the case should have hit a wall. However, the clue they needed to propel the case forward was in the form of one deleted phone call that the killer never thought would see the light of day.

  • Chapter 125: Killed in Plain Sight-The Murder of Joyce Paneck-Saglimbene
    2025/12/17
    A quiet afternoon. A parking garage. A crime that would haunt a community for decades.
    The murder of Joyce Paneck-Saglimbene in 1976 shocked Englewood, New Jersey, but with little evidence and no suspects, her case faded into obscurity for three decades. As hope for justice waned, a sudden arrest brought her case back into the spotlight, but was the killer really found?

    If you have any information about Joyce's murder, you can contact the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office (201)226-5532
