Across State Lines: True Crime

If you would like to give me feedback, click here

In 1983, a family who was visiting Yosemite National Park stumbled upon partial human remains that had belonged to a woman in her 20’s, and her identity had eluded police for forty years. During the course of the investigation, a well known serial killer had come to light, and when investigated, he claimed that he had killed the Jane Doe. However, this
particular serial killer had falsely confessed to hundreds of murders, and his tales were largely discredited by both investigators and the public alike. Another serial killer began to kill in Yosemite National Park a decade later, and this killer had even had contact with Jane Doe a decade prior, so he was
considered a suspect, as well. In 2022, Jane Doe’s identity was uncovered when DNA and genetic genealogy identified her as Patricia Hicks Dahlstrom, and a dive into her life story took investigators into the world of a very ominous cult. Still, today, her case is unsolved, though investigators have a decent
idea of who may have been her killer based on some items found at the scene.

This podcast episode features two cases, the death of Devin Williams and the escape of Robert Fisher. In 1995, Devin Williams was seen driving his 18 wheeler semi truck through the Tonto National Forest, seemingly unaware of anyone around him. When approached, he was behaving bizarrely, before he disappeared. Two years later, his skull was discovered not far from where his truck was abandoned. In 2001, Robert Fisher brutally murdered his entire family, before rigging the home to cause a massive explosion. Robert Fisher escaped into the Tonto National Forest, but has never been seen again.

This episode dives into two cases, the disappearance of Gabriel Johnson and the disappearance of Jhessye Shockley. In December of 2009, Gabriel's mother, Elizabeth, ran off with her infant son, Gabriel, and never returned him back to his father. Elizabeth told conflicting stories of what happened to Gabriel, and even when offered a deal with police, she refused to ever say where he was. In 2011, five year old Jhessye Shockley was reported missing, with her mother stating she had ran off. However, a dive into her home life proved something far sinister had happened to her, and she has never been found.
