Gina Bos Part 2: "Do I Think I Know Who Killed Her? Yes."

Eighteen years after Regina "Gina" Bos vanished outside Duggan's Pub in Lincoln, Nebraska, Detective Greg Sorensen said on the record: "Do I think I know who killed her? Yes." Then, in the same conversation: "We don't have enough probable cause to arrest somebody." This episode is built around the gap between those two statements. Gina Bos — a 40-year-old single mother of three and musician — walked out of an open mic on October 17, 2000, and was never seen again. Her car was found across the street. Her guitar, which she never left unattended, sat in a trunk that never closed. No body. No crime scene. No footage — the pub's cameras were off that night. In Part 2 of this series, with new interview audio from Gina's sister Jannel Rap, founder of the GINA for Missing Persons FOUNDation, we examine: * Why the open trunk reframes every piece of physical evidence in the case * The four structural conditions that have shaped this investigation for 25 years * What "probable cause" actually means — and why a detective who believes he knows the answer still can't make an arrest * State v. Keadle: the Nebraska Supreme Court ruling proving murder can be prosecuted without a body * How Jannel turned the worst night of her search into a foundation that has helped find more than 3,000 missing people — while her own sister's case stays open Gina's case is the oldest unsolved missing persons case at the Lincoln Police Department. Nebraska law is not the wall. The evidence is the wall. And evidence can change. Have information about the disappearance of Regina "Gina" Bos?

Halls of Mediocrity Training Camp: 5 Pro Athletes, 5 Crimes — How Many Can Jeff Name? | Preview

Patrick Kane punched a cab driver over 20 cents. Pat McAfee was arrested shirtless and soaking wet at 2am trying to break into the wrong car. One guy was arrested over 100 times. Another had no pants, no underwear, nothing. Five clues. Five athletes. Can you name them? The Halls of Mediocrity launches July 14th, the second show from the Archive Podcast Network. In this preview clip, Kevin and his brother Jeff run a training camp drill: five clues, a running clock, and Jeff doing his best to identify the perp before time runs out. Clue #1 - NFL Running Back: A career backup who never started more than four games in a season, arrested at Barry University for breaking into a dorm room and using a woman's laundry basket as a toilet. Clue #2 - NHL, Three-Time Stanley Cup Champion: One of the most recognizable names in the sport, arrested in Buffalo at 5am for punching a cab driver in the face over a 20-cent fare dispute. Clue #3 - MLB Gold Glove Second Baseman: A .254 career hitter pulled over in Tampa with seven cans of beer, a gram of cocaine, and leaving the scene of an accident. Police could not administer a field sobriety test at the side of the road. You'll understand why when you hear the clue. Clue #4 - NBA Backup Point Guard: Played for six teams in ten years. Never averaged more than eight points a game. Arrested over one hundred times in his life. Best known as a Phoenix Sun. Clue #5 - NFL Punter: Found shirtless, soaking wet, at 2am, trying to break into a car that wasn't his. Told police he thought it was. Now one of the most prominent media personalities in sports. Jeff gets four out of five. Kevin gives him a solid B. July 14th is coming. THE HALLS OF MEDIOCRITY - LAUNCHING JULY 14TH Sports. True crime. Athletes who had everything and threw it away.

Witness Wednesday: Darsha Dodge on Gina Bos, Nebraska Missing Persons Day, and the Sisters Who Sang in the Rain

Darsha Dodge has known about Gina Bos's case for 15 years. Last October, she stood at the Nebraska State Capitol in the rain and watched Gina's sisters sing for her under a rainbow umbrella. This is what she saw. Darsha Dodge is the senior reporter at 1011 News (KOLN) in Lincoln, Nebraska. She grew up in Arkansas and, as a teenager going down internet rabbit holes about missing persons, stumbled across Gina Bos's disappearance roughly 15 years ago. When she moved to Lincoln and saw Nebraska Missing Persons Day come up on the calendar, an event Gina's sisters helped push through the state legislature, designating October 17th each year, she knew immediately she was going to be there. In this Witness Wednesday, Darsha describes walking up to the state capitol that October morning: storm clouds, thunder, rain on and off, and Gina's sisters Jannel, Leanne, and Tammy standing under a bright rainbow umbrella, holding their instruments and singing for a sister who has been missing for 26 years. When Darsha asked Jannel about the rain, Jannel said something she hasn't been able to forget: "It's been raining since October 17th." She also talks about meeting Jannel for the first time - the warmth, the hug, the email Jannel sent after the story ran that Darsha printed out and keeps on her desk. She talks about looking at Gina's photos and what a person's smile tells you about who they were. And she talks about driving past the building where Duggan's Pub used to stand, at 11th and K in downtown Lincoln, two or three times a week, and how she can't drive by without thinking about Gina. She also reflects on the 411 Gina Foundation: what it takes to build something like that out of grief, to help hundreds of families find their missing loved ones while your own sister's case remains open, and what Jannel's email revealed about the kind of person you have to be to do that work. If you're looking for a reason to believe in people, Darsha says, look at what Jannel Rap built in her sister's name.

Gina Bos Update, Halls of Mediocrity Launch Date, and a Big Week Ahead | Midnight Mystery Archive Monday, June 29

The Amy Bradley series is done. Gina Bos is next. And this week is one of the most important weeks of the Summer Series and here's what's coming. Gina Bos was 40 years old when she disappeared from Lincoln, Nebraska on October 17, 2000. She had just finished an open mic night at Duggan's Pub. Her guitar and sheet music made it into the trunk of her car. The trunk never closed. She has not been seen since. This past Friday's episode covered who Gina was and what happened that night. If you haven't heard it yet, start there. This week: on Wednesday, Darcia Dodge, senior reporter at KOLN News in Lincoln, Nebraska, joins Witness Wednesday. Darcia was familiar with Gina's case before she got into journalism. Last fall, she attended Nebraska Missing Persons Day at the state capitol and met Gina's sisters firsthand. What she experienced on that day is something you need to hear before Friday. Because on Friday, Gina's sister Jannel Rap joins the podcast. Jannel didn't just grieve, she built something. Her foundation, the GINA for Missing Persons Foundation at 411gina.org, has been connected to the recovery of more than 600 missing men, women, and children while Gina's own case remains open. This is that conversation. Also, this week: The Halls of Mediocrity, the Archive Podcast Network's second show, launches July 14th. Sports, true crime, and the athletes who had everything and threw it away. Two trailers are live now wherever you get your podcasts. And Echo 1953, Book One of The Hollis Files Mystery Series, launches July 27th. The early reader reviews are coming in and they are genuinely knocking me out. Pre-order is live on Amazon now, link in the show notes.

Gina Bos: After the Last Song — Who She Was and What Happened the Night She Disappeared | Part 1

Gina Bos packed her guitar. She walked to her car. The trunk was never shut. She has not been seen since October 17, 2000. Regina "Gina" Bos was 40 years old on the night she disappeared — a musician, a mother of three, a woman with a new job lined up and a Habitat for Humanity house in progress. She had spent the evening playing open mic night at Duggan's Pub in downtown Lincoln, Nebraska. Multiple witnesses saw her leave around 1 a.m. Her guitar and sheet music were found in the trunk of her Saturn the next morning. The trunk was slightly open. Her purse was not in the car. She was not in the car. She is the oldest unsolved missing persons case at the Lincoln Police Department. In 2018, eighteen years into the investigation, Detective Greg Sorensen told Dateline NBC: "Do I think I know who killed her? Yes. There is no way she would be forcibly taken off the street — in front of all those people that night — by a stranger. I think she knew her assailant." And in the same conversation: "We don't have enough probable cause to arrest somebody." That gap — between what a detective believes and what the law requires to act — is at the center of this case. It is also the center of this series. Episode 1 covers who Gina was and what happened on October 16 and 17, 2000. It covers the music community she was part of, the social world of Duggan's Pub, the people who were in that room that night, the two-and-a-half-hour window between when she finished performing and when she walked to her car, and the morning her children heard her pager go off in the house — and realized their mother wasn't there.
