The Unsolved Murder of David Kelm | Part 2 of 2 | Tuesday September 13, 2022
46 year old David Kelm was shot in his own home in the Masterson Station area of Lexington Kentucky on April 23, 2019, and died of his injuries at the University of Kentucky Hospital that same evening.
Years and 6 newly assigned homicide detectives later, his family has no answers, and no justice.
Join Wendy and David as we talk to talk to his mother, Jessica Profitt, and sister, Rachel Romero, about who David is, and how their lives changed forever that night. Learn about David growing up, the things in life he enjoyed and where he was in life when it was taken by evil.
You will walk away from these 2 episodes as perplexed as his family and friends, asking how a man is killed in his own home, and why no one has been brought to justice.
Know that these episodes are very emotional, as Jessica and Rachael recount how they learned David died.
And just as importantly, please share these episodes far and wide with everyone you know. It is our hope that David’s name goes remembered, and someone comes forward with information to close this case.

The Happy Face Killer's Unknown Victim - Patricia Skiple | Part 2 of 2
We have all heard about those rare murder cases where a suspect is charged and convicted of murder, even though the victim’s body, was never found.
There is another side of this case coin: a body, a suspect and a firm conviction in court, without knowing who this unidentified Jane Doe is
It opens up another tragic tale that somewhere, someone is missing a family member or friend, who appeared to disappear. Add a few decades to this mystery, and it feel hopeless to even think about it.
Of course the convicted suspect is known, a serial killer coined The Happy Face Killer named Keith Hunter Jesperson.
This is the story of Patricia ‘Patsy’ Skiple, that was known as ‘Blue Pacheco’ to her Cold Case investigator, Detective Sergeant Shannon ‘Cat’ Catalano, with the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office in California.
With Cat’s help, we tell the story in two parts of the painstaking and detailed investigation that took place to ultimately return Patsy’s name, and provide answers to her family, using DNA in a fairly new light.
