Historical Pop Quiz: Did you learn it in high school?

Sure, this episode is a little salty, but the world seems like it needs some salt right now! Y'all heard about all those disappearances of people who seem to have some sort of connection to government labs and angencies and contractors? It's in our backyard here in New Mexico, so we've gotta talk about it. Today's pop quiz is inspired by... flails around at the world... and the book History Lessons: How Textbooks from Around the World Portray American History (see our bookshelf), Nell gives Rose a pop quiz on what is historical and what is current and how it all comes together.

Who Killed Kathy? Kathy Joan Lawson Arredondo

On February 11, 2012, Kathy vanished in Houston, Texas. At first, her friends and family clung to hope, certain she would walk back through the door with an explanation for the silence. But as strange social media comments surfaced then disappeared, and whispers of vehicle tampering spread, hope tangled with fear. Days stretched into months. Months into years. More than a decade later, the call finally came: Kathy had been found. It was not the closure anyone had prayed for, but it also wasn't the end. We still want to know - who killed Kathy? NOTE: This episode has been edited to preserve the integrity of the open case. All opinions and speculations are Nell's and Nell's alone. There are no named, public suspects in this case. All names that have been used are public information.
