## Resource

Arkansas’ 25-year cold case just got explosive: a Wisconsin man, Roger Ewer, is now facing charges for allegedly helping dispose of the body of John Douglas Rollins Jr., found floating in a sleeping bag in Beaver Lake in 1996. Though not accused of the murder itself, Ewer is charged with hindering apprehension and tampering with evidence. DNA breakthroughs in 2022 finally identified Rollins, who had been living in Springdale before vanishing. Ewer was extradited from Wisconsin for another unrelated case — raising questions about whether he was already under suspicion. The original murder remains unsolved, as investigators continue to dig into what happened all those years ago. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
