Trailer - The Death of Autumn Stone: A Multiple-Part Series
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
05/11/23 • 2 min
---
In the late afternoon on August 30, 2019, in an otherwise sunny and pristine summer afternoon, a body was found floating in Green Lake, a popular recreational and park area in northern Seattle. When police arrived, they pulled a woman from the water. The woman was 23-year-old Autumn Lee Stone.
She had a vest zipped up to her neck. Underneath the vest, shoelaces were tied around her neck, like she had been strangled. She was fully clothed, but her shoes were missing. At the time, the first responders thought it looked suspicious. But when detectives arrived, they quickly started telling the public it was likely a suicide and in just a few weeks, her case was closed.
Immediately, friends and family didn't buy it. Questions began to formulate: How do you kill yourself with shoelaces? How did her body get into the lake? Why was she at Green Lake in the first place? The questions mounted. The police initially remained adamant that there was no indication of defensive wounds or foul play. Then in 2020, the Seattle Police Department suddenly re-opened Autumn's case.
It's been almost four years since Autumn died, and the family is still awaiting justice.
This is the Death of Autumn Stone, a multiple-part series.

MISSING: Robert McLaughlin - Sept. 25, 2017 (Jacksonville, Florida)
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
03/22/23 • 47 min
35-year-old Robert McLaughlin, also known by "Royal Francis and "Rob Francis," went missing from Jacksonville, Florida, on September 25, 2017. Robert was last seen in his apartment sometime around 10 pm. He left behind his personal belongings, including his wallet and ID, and his car was also left at his building. Robert has a gold tooth, a chipped right tooth, and tattoos on both his arms and is said to have had a full beard and was wearing a black shirt and shorts around the time of his disappearance. He's about 5'10 and 210 pounds. A few years before his disappearance, Robert was in an accident that left him with a severe head injury that impacted his short and long-term memory.
I was able to get a hold of Robert's former roommate Bella. Bella is close friends with Robert, who lived with him in Florida at the time he went missing. She has since moved back to the Netherlands but continues to search for what happened to her friend. In 2020, Bella started a podcast titled #findrobfrancis and detailed the information she knew leading up to his disappearance. Bella came on the show to talk about Robert, her podcast, and what may have happened to her musically gifted friend.

MISSING: Lonene Ray Rogers - Jan. 7, 1981 (Hayfield Township, Pennsylvania)
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
02/21/23 • 35 min
Later that night, her husband woke up and realized Lonene was not in the house. Lonene left behind her hearing aid, eyeglasses, medication, car, and other personal items. She also left her two young children. The evening she went missing, there was a severe snowstorm.
After Lonene's disappearance, her husband, who is also deaf, placed their young daughter, Alison, for adoption. She is now grown and is attempting to revive the investigation into her mother's disappearance. Alison was generous enough to come on the show and talk with me about her mother's disappearance and her life's journey.
I encourage you to check out the Justice for Lonene Facebook page and Alison's book about her mother and her life titled "A Daughter's Journey," which is available on Amazon.

MISSING: Danielle Sleeper (Magnolia, Texas)
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
11/10/23 • 48 min
Danielle Sleeper has been Missing from Magnolia, Texas, since March 22, 2015. She was last seen at a barbecue in a trailer she attended with her son and husband, whom she invited later into the evening. At some point, her husband wanted her to leave, but Danielle wanted to stay and stay over with their friends. An argument broke out, and Danielle acquiesced in going with her husband. She left her suburban vehicle, which she had taken separately, and got into her husband's Ford F-350 pickup truck. They left the party sometime around 1 a.m.
The next day, family and friends were concerned when they hadn't heard from Danielle. She was usually incredibly responsive. When the husband returned to the trailer park, some of Danielle's friends asked him where she was. He gave an odd answer when he told them she tends to make friends and disappear.
Danielle's family also became suspicious and decided to visit Danielle's house. They found the home in disarray and her husband, Austin, acting strange. Police were called, but to this day, there have been no clear answers on what happened to Danielle or where she may be. Danielle's family says there is no way she would have left her three boys of her own volition. There is a $21,000 reward for information leading to her whereabouts.
If you know anything about Danielle's disappearance, please contact the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office at 936-760-5876. Also, please check out the Bring Danielle Home Facebook page for more information on Danielle's case.
I spoke to Tannah, Danielle's sister, about her disappearance.

MISSING: Connie Johnson (Chicago or Boston, 1979/1980)
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
10/16/23 • 38 min
Today, I have a very unique episode for you. I saw a post on a cold case Facebook page that intrigued me. Angie has been searching for her mother, Connie Johnson, for decades.
Angie was given up for adoption at a young age and only recently, after exhaustive genealogical research, pieced together that her mother might be missing. Angie has spent years doing ancestral research, tracking down her biological family, and piecing together information about her mother. She’s done a tremendous job on her own, and she’s managed to locate many of her family members, including her dad and brother, but has yet to find out what happened to her mother.
Little is known about Connie Johnson’s disappearance. She likely went missing from Chicago or Boston sometime in 1979 or 1980. I will post a photo below, one of the last known photos of Connie , where she is with a man. Some think he may have had something to do with her disappearance.
Angie is looking for help with her tenacious search. She understands it’s unlikely her mother is still alive, but she really wants to know what happened to her. If you’re an amateur sleuth and possess some advanced genealogical research skills, reach out to Angie or me – I’ve linked her Facebook profile, with her permission: https://www.facebook.com/AngieM.Schmitz1
Here’s my interview with Angie.

MISSING: Bernard Grempel (Surrey, B.C.)
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
08/03/23 • 30 min
Twenty-eight-year-old Bernard "Bernie" Grempel went missing on May 14, 2021. That evening he took the SkyTrain from Surrey to New Westminster before boarding the 340 bus to North Delta around 11 p.m. No one has ever determined if he got off the bus or where.
He's 30 years old, 6' tall, and has a slim build, curly brown hair and brown eyes. I talked to his older sister Ettie Shurack who is searching for her Brother. His family is offering a $50,000 reward for anyone who can help bring Bernie home. Shurack also manages a Facebook group called "Bernard Grempel is Missing," where you can get up-to-date information in their search for Bernard. After two years of searching, Shurack worries about her Brother and says he is a well-liked and popular member of her family and community.
If you have seen Bernard or know where he is, please call the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477. This is my conversation with Ettie.

MISSING: Natana Lynn Thomas (Alaska or B.C., 1978)
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
11/23/23 • 44 min
Natana (or Tana) Lynn Thomas went missing sometime in 1978, maybe in the summer, somewhere in Alaska or British Columbia. Natana and her husband, Mike Staso, who was stationed in the Army in Bremerton, Washington, went to Alaska to visit Mike's family. She told the family that on the way home to Tacoma, Washington, they would stop in B.C. and other places to do some sightseeing.
Natana, who is Indigenous and part of the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska, was born on March 14, 1954. She grew up in central California and also spent time in the Bay area. She was married to a man named Mohammad Matar for a brief period before her marriage to Mike.
There are not many theories on what happened to Natana and Mike, but one of the prevalent theories is that Mike may not have been super happy in his military career, and they went AWOL. There are also darker theories that they may have gone missing due to foul play.
To the family's knowledge, neither person was reported missing.
I interviewed Tana's cousin, Lorri, about her disappearance.

MISSING: Patricia Duncan (Buckie, Scotland)
The Missing and Unexplained Podcast
12/20/23 • 26 min
51-year-old Patricia Duncan, a mother of seven, went missing from Buckie, a coastal Scottish town, sometime on November 16, 2002. It’s reported she walked out of her home into the cold and rain with her cigarettes and brown sheepskin jacket. It’s believed she was also wearing black pants and black shoes.
Patricia is approximately 5’4 in height, with a slim build and fair complexion. Her family says she had no reason to leave the house, and her missing is incredibly out of character.
There was a large search of the region for Patricia. Still, despite an extensive police investigation, including cadaver dogs and an underwater search team, no clues have been found about what may have happened to Patricia.
If you have any information, please get in touch with Police Scotland on 101 or via their website. If you prefer to remain anonymous, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or use their online reporting service. Alternatively, phone/text the Missing People 24/7 helpline at 116 000 or email [email protected], quoting reference 03-000100.
For more information about Patricia’s disappearance, you can also visit the Facebook page “Missing Person Patricia Duncan."
