In 2021, we brought you a then little-known story: the unsolved case of Leon Laureles, a beloved brother and uncle who was murdered on the side of a rural Texas highway. Since then, his case has become a focus for cold-case advocates—especially his own niece, Arlene.  At every turn, Arlene has been frustrated in her search for answers, but that hasn’t stopped her. And in the past year, surprising new information has come to light.

Laurah is sick; apologies for hoarseness.

The last five episodes have presented more than 20 cold cases in desperate need of resolution. For many, the only chance will come through FIGG—DNA testing and forensic investigative genetic genealogy. 

This episode, we move beyond our Nashville Does coverage to speak with Redgrave Research about how some of the most difficult cases are solved, and about their successful work resolving a case with Laurah—one tied to both Tennessee and Illinois. 

Flyers for the season will be posted under “news” on our website and on our social media.
