We shine a light on what's been under-investigated, under-covered, or both — diving deep into unsolved homicides, disappearances, and unidentified John and Jane Does. Through interviews with law enforcement, forensic experts, victim advocates, and families, we investigate what happened and why these cases remain unsolved. We dig into current issues in forensic science, DNA evidence, and criminal justice — and confront the disparities that leave underrepresented victims, including those lost to serial killers, without headlines or justice. Every episode is victim-centered, not drama-driven. Real cases. Real families. Real justice.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-24T16:19:24.997859+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-fall-line-true-crime-743297"},"episode":{"title":"Missing Twice: No Body Homicides","slug":"missing-twice-no-body-homicides","published_at":"2025-11-05T09:56:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-fall-line-true-crime-743297/missing-twice-no-body-homicides","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-fall-line-true-crime-743297","url":"https://6c33709f-f1d3-4d47-9c69-8f8a086eefba.libsyn.com/missing-twice-no-body-homicides","audio_url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/mgln.ai/e/1184/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/6c33709f-f1d3-4d47-9c69-8f8a086eefba/TFL_24-1_No_Body_Homicides_Adjusted.mp3?dest-id=4069896","summary":"Forensic anthropologists Dr. Amy Michael and Dr. Jen Bengtson reveal a critical gap in missing-persons databases and unidentified-remains cases. No-body homicide victims—those identified as murdered, but without recovered remains—may not appear in forensic identification databases, creating problems for cold-case investigations and forensic anthropology work. Their research examines how missing persons cases, forensic databases, and unidentified human-remains investigations may be disconnected, which can in turn affect victim identification efforts nationwide. The Fall Line® is an investigative true crime podcast focused on cold cases, unsolved murders, missing persons, and unidentified John and Jane Does in the United States. We deliver in-depth reporting and interviews with law enforcement and forensic experts, examining unsolved homicides, disappearances, serial crimes, and the evidence behind them. Victim-centered and research-driven, we focus on cases still seeking answers.
