    Where Is Danielle Bell?

    Danielle Bell went missing September 28, 2001 after attending a party in Cantonment, Florida. She was 14 years old. For the duration of my career, I heard her name. I went on ground searches for her body. And any unidentified skeletal case I worked, the question of if it could be Danielle always came up. On this episode I'm talking to Danielle's sister, Bonnie. Hearing her perspective on the case and where it stands now. Listener discretion is advised as we are talking about violence and the death of a minor. If you have any information regarding Danielle's disappearance, please contact Escambia County Sheriff's Office.

    The Airman in the Water

    This is a death call that began as a mystery. An abandoned vehicle and a missing person. Days later a floater in a flight suit found in stages of decomposition. How did the decedent get into the water? This is one of those cases that I felt went on forever and at the same time continued to still have unanswered questions. A case that haunted me for years and one I'll never forget. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/emily-speed5/support

  6. Contain and Conceal

    Contain and Conceal

    The cases described in this episode all have one thing in common... the bodies were hidden in some way. Contained and concealed and sometimes not very well. Some were in luggage, barrels, rubbermaid containers and storage units; some were rolled up in a rug. Coming from the perspective of the death investigator with preservation of evidence and identification being the most important, I talk about how these cases were handled. Difficult, yes. Fascinating and exciting, also yes. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/emily-speed5/support

    Russian Roulette

    This episode steps through a gunshot wound to the head that wasn't the typical self -inflicted gsw that we often see. This one was a high risk game that ended after one shot. The manner of death can be a challenge in certain cases for Medical Examiners. Would you call it an accident or a suicide? Listen to the case and decide for yourself. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/emily-speed5/support

  8. The Hardest Cases

    The Hardest Cases

    This episode is talking about the hardest cases for most forensic professionals to work. The kids. I have been weary about recording an episode about child and infant death investigation because I know most shy away from listening to the terrible realities that exist. But they are a reality and they are some of the hardest cases to walk away from and not take home with you. They are some of the hardest to remain professional on and not react emotionally; specifically with anger. I have been asked the same question for years, "what are some of the hardest cases to work?" This episode is about just that. The hardest cases. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/emily-speed5/support
