The Deck

audiochuck

For years, some law enforcement agencies have replaced the faces of traditional playing card decks with images of missing and murdered people and distributed those cards in prisons hoping inmates would come forward with information needed to crack these cold cases wide open. Now, audiochuck is dealing you in. Each week, we will be working with investigators and family members to bring you the details of some of the coldest cases from around the country in hopes that someone listening can finally bring these victims the justice they deserve.

    Tyra Garcia (Queen of Diamonds, California)

    Our card this week is Tyra Garcia, the Queen of Diamonds from California.

    It was Memorial Day, 1985, when fifteen-year-old Tyra Garcia slipped out the front door to a neighbors house, saying she’d be gone for only a few minutes. No one expected those minutes to stretch into hours… and then days. And no one could have imagined that 40 years later, the case would still be unsolved. Especially when the answers seem to be right in front of us. 

    Because there are two very compelling suspects that were barely investigated by law enforcement back then. Despite the fact that one matched a suspect composite sketch. And drove the same kind of car she was last seen getting into. And even when it’s found out that the bedspread her body was wrapped in was similar to one missing from their hotel room, little was done to find out what happened. Is it too late for answers? The current investigator would say no way. And he, along with a forensic scientist, are on a mission to find out what happened to Tyra and who is responsible. 

    • If you know anything about the murder of Tyra Garcia, be that call that brings Tyra’s family justice after over 40 years with no answers. If you are that someone, please call the Ventura County Cold Case Unit at 805-383-8739 or email [email protected]. You can also call the Crime Stoppers tip line at 1-800-222-8477 or visit venturacountycrimestoppers.org and submit an anonymous tip.

    Charles “Chuck” McGraw (10 of Spades, Indiana)

    Charles' bold suits and charismatic personality made him stand out. He was also a man who liked money — earning it, flashing it, and spending it. And trying to untangle Charles' different threads of income – and what may or may not be connected to his death – has kept investigators busy for decades. Especially when some of that income was almost definitely under the table. 

     If you know anything about the murder of Charles McGraw, investigators want to hear from you. Please call Beech Grove Crime Tips to leave an anonymous tip at 317-782-4950 or you can submit a tip by emailing [email protected].

    Margaret Reimann (Queen of Spades, California)

    When 73-year-old Margaret Reimann was murdered in her garage while getting ready to leave for church in 1986, everyone immediately started pointing fingers at one particular relative. And in the investigation that followed, detectives uncovered a decades-long family feud, grudges that had been festering for years, and questions about just how far someone might go when there’s money on the line.

    But almost four decades later, new DNA testing pointed them in a completely different direction. 

    And now, the case is hotter than it’s ever been.

    If you have any information about the murder of Margaret “Myie” Reimann in November of 1986 in Camarillo, California, please speak up. You can reach Detective Gerardo Cruz directly at (805) 384 - 4726 or by emailing [email protected]. If you’d prefer to remain anonymous, you can also call Ventura County Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-8477 or visit www.venturacountycrimestoppers.org to submit a tip via text or email.

    INTRODUCING... Chameleon: The Weekly

    Today we are bringing you stories from a slightly different side of true crime: stories about people who live by deception. Individuals who don't just tell lies but become someone else entirely. 

    From Audiochuck and Campside Media, this is Chameleon. Each week, host and journalist Josh Dean unravels a new case that pushes the limits of human deception. Stories of imposters, shapeshifters, and master con artists who have turned illusion into a way of life.

    The first episode dives into the unbelievable story of Rafaello Follieri, the charming con artist who fooled everyone from Hollywood to high society. He swept a famous actress off her feet, claimed ties to powerful politicians, and convinced investors he was on a mission to save the Catholic Church’s finances.

    Chameleon is a psychological deep dive into the human capacity for deceit, and it will make you question how well we really know the people around us. Find episode two, "The Kid Who Couldn't Stop Playing Cop," wherever you listen to podcasts. https://chameleon.simplecast.com/

    Darnell Smith (5 of Diamonds, California)

    Our card this week is Darnell Smith, the 5 of Diamonds from California.

    Darnell Smith’s family never expected him – a pastor’s son and an ambitious student – to get killed in a hail of gunfire. For a young man without even a whisper of a criminal record, no one would have expected his life to end in such a violent way at the age of twenty. But Darnell Smith’s death became entangled in a world his family was never a part of — and left investigators scrambling to unravel what would soon become a neighborhood nightmare. For more than a decade it seemed like there was no hope for justice… but when our reports went to visit one of the crime scenes … they may have stumbled upon the key to solving this case.

    Listen to the first-ever in-depth coverage of Darnell Smith's case only on The Deck.

    • If you know anything about the murder of Darnell Smith in San Diego, California, on June 15, 2008, it’s time to come forward. Currently, there’s a $3,500 reward for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible. You can remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers of San Diego at 888-580-8477.

    Robert Mitchell Jr. (8 of Clubs, New York)

    Our card this week is Robert Mitchell Jr., the 8 of Clubs from New York. 

    When the body of Robert Mitchell Jr., a “gentle giant” and towering presence in Rochester’s bar scene, is discovered burning in a public park, detectives don’t know what to think. As rumors swirl and leads dry up, the case grows cold… until a witness comes forward with details so specific, only someone close to the crime could know them. Now, nearly a decade later, investigators believe they know who killed Robert… But proving it in court is another story.

    Jerene Matta (Queen of Spades, Washington)

    Our card this week is Jerene Matta, the Queen of Spades from Washington. 

    During the Yakima Police Department’s annual Christmas party, the news of 62-year-old Jerene’s murder shocked every officer and their plus ones. Jerene’s house was known for its security cameras – there were so many that you basically couldn’t enter the property without being filmed. 

    Why was Jerene targeted? And who was she watching on her cameras?

    Or maybe the better question is, was someone watching Jerene?

    • If you have information regarding the murder of Jerene Matta, you can call the Yakima Police Department at 509-575-6200. If you wish to remain anonymous, you can leave a tip with Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-222-8477. You can also call Detective Shaw directly at 509-576-6791.

    Twenty-two-year-old Ron Harnish was murdered on the streets of San Diego in December 2006. Almost 19 years later, the police and Ron’s own mother believe they know who’s responsible. But proving it has been a challenge, and the people they are after are as violent as it gets.
