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.

Tonya Teske (The 2 of Spades, Idaho)

Our card this week is Tonya Teske, the 2 of Spades from Idaho. This week, we’re resurfacing an important old episode for you because we just learned more information about a person of interest who’s never been ruled out. His name is Mark Douglas Burns, and he's a terrifying individual. He came up in a Crime Junkie episode we dropped in the fan club in which Burns confessed to murdering a young mom in her home back in 2001. And the overlaps between him and Tonya’s last known movements cannot be ignored.  Re-listen to today's episode closely... and then go check out the episode on Sue Gunderson Higgins in the Crime Junkie Fan club and tell me what you think. Could Mark be the missing link? Tonya Teske was a free-spirited 18-year-old who chose to live her life on the open road by hitchhiking around the mountain west. On August 13, 1997, she was last seen in Montana at a truck stop before her body was discovered two days later on the side of a highway in Idaho. * If you have any information about Tonya’s murder, you’re asked to call the Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office at 208-529-1200. * To listen to the Crime Junkie episode we mentioned on Sue Gunderson Higgins, join the Fan Club.

Nefertiri “Neffie” Trader (Queen of Hearts, Delaware)

Our card this week is Nefertiri "Neffie" Trader, the Queen of Hearts from Delaware. In the early hours of June 30th, 2014, 33-year-old Nefertiri, who went by “Neffie”, was kidnapped from her own front yard. In the dark, she was dragged into her car, away from the townhome she shared with her mom and three children. Even though Neffie’s kidnapping was witnessed, it would be almost nineteen hours before police learned that Neffie was missing. After an investigation failed to find out what happened to Neffie, a Delaware court declared her legally dead. But her body has still never been found.  Could the identity of Neffie’s kidnapper lie with friends she saw hours before she vanished?  Or is the suspect a convicted killer out for revenge? * If you have any information about the disappearance of Nefertiri Trader, you can contact the New Castle County Police Department at their non-emergency number, which is 302-573-2800. Or you can call Crimestoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333.   View source material and photos for this episode at: thedeckpodcast.com/nefertiri-neffie-trader [https://thedeckpodcast.com/nefertiri-neffie-trader] 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].
