Crime Bit with Danelle Hallan

The Shelby Thornburgh Case Has A Face, But No Arrest

In this episode of Crime Bit with Danelle Hallan, we examine the 2015 murder of 20-year-old Shelby Thornburgh in Houston. A client texted that he had arrived, and minutes later she was dead in her apartment, with almost no trace left behind. Within months, police released unusually clear surveillance footage of a man entering and leaving the building in a tight window. With no match to the burner phone and no public identification from the video, the case shows how even strong leads can stall when key evidence cannot be tied to a name.

With no arrest, the story shows how delays and secrecy stall leads and fracture families…

Camping with his young daughters, Tristan is shot through his tent before dawn, and investigators are left with a thin timeline and a single rifle casing as fear spreads across Malibu. Reports of earlier shootings nearby raise new questions.  Why it matters is what happens when warnings stay internal. Part 1 tracks the first reports, early leads, and the questions that shaped the search.

Theo Hayez: Belgian Backpacker Missing In Byron Bay

In this episode of Crime Bit with Danelle Hallan, we examine the 2019 disappearance of 18-year-old backpacker Theo Hayez in Byron Bay. After a night out, he was asked to leave a bar and was later seen on CCTV heading toward the beach as his phone data showed a short, unusual route. With no confirmed sightings after that, investigators weighed accident theories against possible third-party involvement. It shows how fast a case can stall when the digital trail ends and no witnesses come forward.
