    The Ortiz Family Murders

    Dixie and Lloyd Ortiz, and their son Steven, were murdered inside their home during the early morning hours of Father’s Day 2011. Over a year into the investigation, authorities received a tip from an inmate that would help solve the case. 

    Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murders of the Ortiz family. The family had an excellent reputation in their community and seemed like good, hard-working people. Lloyd and Dixie adopted and were caring for their son, Steven, who was partially paralyzed. They also had two adult daughters. And it was one of these daughters who found Lloyd, Dixie, and Steven murdered inside their home on June 19th, 2011. The immediate question was who would want to kill the Ortiz family and why? When the suspects were eventually apprehended, people were shocked by who they turned out to be.

    Erica Green

    In April 2001, a toddler’s body was found in a wooded area in Kansas City, Missouri. The victim became known as “Precious Doe.” Four years later, she was identified as Erica Green. The perpetrators in the brutal act against Erica were determined to be very close to her.

    Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Erica Green. The facts of this case are disturbing. Not only what happened to Erica, but it was committed by those who were charged with loving and taking care of her. But when you have more than one suspect, you can rest assured that each person is going to have a different story. Who is telling the truth, or are they both lying to some degree?

    Connie Dabate

    39-year-old Connie Dabate was a mother of two who was killed just two days before Christmas. Her husband Richard claimed she was killed by an armed intruder who broke into their house that morning, but Connie’s Fitbit data would prove his story was a lie. 

    Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murder of Connie Dabate. Connie's husband Richard claimed a masked intruder shot Connie and then wounded him and left him zip-tied to a chair. His wounds were fairly superficial for the scene, so the police were skeptical of his claims. Why would an intruder shoot and kill Connie but leave Richard alive? Connie's Fitbit would provide the answers that the police needed.

    Angela Montgomery

    Gabrielle Rodgers, a Georgia mother, was shot by a woman she met in a Facebook mom group, who then kidnapped her newborn twins. Gabrielle survived the shooting and immediately fled to get help.

    Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Angela Montgomery. Investigators soon learned that Kathleen Daniels was a fake identity. As they closed in on the real perpetrator, the details of what Montgomery had done became clear.

    Frank Freshwaters

    After pleading guilty to manslaughter for killing a pedestrian while speeding, Frank Freshwaters escaped from an honor farm in Ohio and spent over fifty years on the run. In 2015, the U.S. Marshals located Freshwaters in Florida, where he had started a new life under a fake identity.

    Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Frank Freshwaters. By all accounts, Frank had led a pretty decent life on the run and had stayed out of trouble. So the question became what should be done with a man who escaped justice but was now 80-years-old. The decision may shock you.

Many people have questioned whether justice was really achieved and if Heinrich should have been identified much sooner.
