Milagros Nieves (3 of Clubs, Connecticut)

Our card this week is Milagros Nieves, the 3 of Clubs from Connecticut. For more than three decades, the family of Milagros Nieves never talked about her murder.  She’d been stabbed 33 times in the presence of her beloved baby granddaughter. The violence of it, the brutality of it, was too much for her family to relive. But when our team at The Deck started looking into Milagros’ case, they uncovered information that would leave everyone,  including investigators, with even more questions.  * If you have any information about the murder of Milagros Nieves, you can call the Bridgeport Police Department at 203-576-TIPS.   View source material and photos for this episode at: thedeckpodcast.com/milagros-nieves [https://thedeckpodcast.com/milagros-nieves] Let us deal you in… follow The Deck on social media. * Instagram: @thedeckpodcast [https://www.instagram.com/thedeckpodcast/] | @audiochuck [https://www.instagram.com/audiochuck/] * Twitter: @thedeckpodcast_ [https://twitter.com/thedeckpodcast_] | @audiochuck [https://twitter.com/audiochuck] * Facebook: /TheDeckPodcast [https://www.facebook.com/TheDeckPodcast] | /audiochuckllc [https://www.facebook.com/audiochuckllc] * To support Season of Justice and learn more, please visit seasonofjustice.org [http://seasonofjustice.org].

Clarence and Marjorie Paulson (2 of Clubs, Minnesota)

In July 1984, Clarence and Marjorie Paulson, father and daughter, were reported missing from their home in Minnesota. At first glance, sheriff’s deputies didn’t see any obvious signs of a struggle. Marjorie and Clarence didn’t have driver’s licenses, and the three-wheeler Clarence used to travel was still at his house. Marjorie’s purse and knitting needles were left behind. Neighbors didn’t offer much of an explanation about where they’d gone – the two were considered reclusive, but known to travel into town every so often.  But a closer examination of the home revealed more to the story. And six years after reported missing, detectives found the unthinkable.  * Anyone with information about the death of Marjorie and Paulson should call Crime Stoppers of Minnesota: 800-222-8477, or the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension tip line is 1-877-996-6222.    View source material and photos for this episode at: thedeckpodcast.com/clarence-and-marjorie-paulson [https://thedeckpodcast.com/clarence-and-marjorie-paulson] Let us deal you in… follow The Deck on social media. * Instagram: @thedeckpodcast [https://www.instagram.com/thedeckpodcast/] | @audiochuck [https://www.instagram.com/audiochuck/] * Twitter: @thedeckpodcast_ [https://twitter.com/thedeckpodcast_] | @audiochuck [https://twitter.com/audiochuck] * Facebook: /TheDeckPodcast [https://www.facebook.com/TheDeckPodcast] | /audiochuckllc [https://www.facebook.com/audiochuckllc] * To support Season of Justice and learn more, please visit seasonofjustice.org [http://seasonofjustice.org].

Edwin “Eddie” Heath Sr. (King of Hearts, Delaware)

Our card this week is Edwin “Eddie” Heath Sr., the King of Hearts from Delaware. For the last eleven years, the mystery of who murdered 33-year-old Eddie has haunted the New Castle County Police. It looked to them like Eddie had been targeted – shot just steps from where he lived and in front of his children. But a few BIG questions remain: Who was the man, possibly in disguise, that shot Eddie that day? And was this the same man caught on a surveillance camera near the scene? And WHY would anyone want this otherwise normal-seeming dad dead?   * If you have any information about the murder of Edwin “Eddie” Heath Sr., or if you lived in or near the Fox Run Apartments and Townhomes community in May of 2015 and saw something, please get in touch with the New Castle County Police Department at: 302-573-2800. You can also submit a tip anonymously by calling the local Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333 or visiting their website at www.Delaware.crimestoppersweb.com [http://www.delaware.crimestoppersweb.com].    View source material and photos for this episode at:  Let us deal you in… follow The Deck on social media. * Instagram: @thedeckpodcast [https://www.instagram.com/thedeckpodcast/] | @audiochuck [https://www.instagram.com/audiochuck/] * Twitter: @thedeckpodcast_ [https://twitter.com/thedeckpodcast_] | @audiochuck [https://twitter.com/audiochuck] * Facebook: /TheDeckPodcast [https://www.facebook.com/TheDeckPodcast] | /audiochuckllc [https://www.facebook.com/audiochuckllc] * To support Season of Justice and learn more, please visit seasonofjustice.org [http://seasonofjustice.org].

Angelica Sandoval (3 of Hearts, Colorado)

When police arrived at the scene of Angelica Sandoval’s disappearance on February 24th, 2011, what they came across seemed eerily frozen in time: her 1995, four-door, green Oldsmobile sedan was parked on 13th Street, in front of her two-bedroom duplex. Her keys were still in the driver’s side lock, but the back driver’s side door of the car was hanging open, revealing a basket of laundry and her purse still inside the car. The eeriness of that scene - the way that Angelica had seemingly just been plucked away in the middle of such a routine task -  left a heaviness that has hung over Alamosa, CO, since that wintry night and left a Detective to work through a maze of potential suspects, leads, small-town gossip, and unanswered questions.  * If you know anything that could help detectives, call the Alamosa Police Department at 719-589-2548 and ask for the Investigations Division. Or if you’d like to remain anonymous, you can contact Crimestoppers at 719-589-4111.    View source material and photos for this episode at: thedeckpodcast.com/angelica-sandoval [https://thedeckpodcast.com/angelica-sandoval] Let us deal you in… follow The Deck on social media. * Instagram: @thedeckpodcast [https://www.instagram.com/thedeckpodcast/] | @audiochuck [https://www.instagram.com/audiochuck/] * Twitter: @thedeckpodcast_ [https://twitter.com/thedeckpodcast_] | @audiochuck [https://twitter.com/audiochuck] * Facebook: /TheDeckPodcast [https://www.facebook.com/TheDeckPodcast] | /audiochuckllc [https://www.facebook.com/audiochuckllc] * To support Season of Justice and learn more, please visit seasonofjustice.org [http://seasonofjustice.org].

Jimmy “Jamie” Riddle (9 of Diamonds, North Carolina)

In the fall of 1991, just as the season was starting to change, a couple fishing at sunrise at a small lake in Fayetteville, North Carolina, noticed something floating near the surface of the water. At first, they thought it was a blow-up doll. But upon closer inspection,  the couple saw hair on the legs and realized it wasn’t a doll. It was a human being—a person who would be identified as 24-year-old Jimmy Riddle.  Jimmy was also known to some of their friends as Jamie, but how much their identity played into their death isn’t clear. What the police have to go on are potential witness statements, items left at the crime scene, and maybe, just maybe, DNA.  Nearly 35 years after Riddle’s killing, there’s a new detective on the case…a detective determined to unearth the answers once and for all.  * If you know anything about the murder of Jimmy or Jamie Riddle in Fayetteville, North Carolina, please call the  Fayetteville Police Department at 910-433-1529. You can also call Fayetteville/Cumberland County Crime Stoppers with tips at 910-483-8477. Anonymous tips for an open/unsolved case through Fayetteville/Cumberland County Crimestoppers could receive up to a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest. Please note: While writing this episode, our team worked with trans sensitivity readers and editors to ensure that we address Riddle's episode and this topic with respect.   View source material and photos for this episode at: thedeckpodcast.com/jimmy-jamie-riddle [https://thedeckpodcast.com/jimmy-jaime-riddle] Let us deal you in… follow The Deck on social media. * Instagram: @thedeckpodcast [https://www.instagram.com/thedeckpodcast/] | @audiochuck [https://www.instagram.com/audiochuck/] * Twitter: @thedeckpodcast_ [https://twitter.com/thedeckpodcast_] | @audiochuck [https://twitter.com/audiochuck] * Facebook: /TheDeckPodcast [https://www.facebook.com/TheDeckPodcast] | /audiochuckllc [https://www.facebook.com/audiochuckllc] * To support Season of Justice and learn more, please visit seasonofjustice.org [http://seasonofjustice.org].
