The Fall Line: True Crime

The Fall Line® is an investigative true crime podcast focused on cold cases, unsolved murders, and missing persons. 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 Contact: The Disappearance of Pepita Redhair

    Pepita Madelyn Redhair, a young woman who grew up in  Crownpoint on the Navajo Nation reservation, longed for adventure. Still, she stayed incredibly close to her family, despite living 140 miles away in Albuquerque. When Pepita suddenly went silent on March 27, 2020, her mother Anita King knew something was terribly wrong. The response she received from law enforcement launched her family into a nearly six-year fight for answers that highlights  issues with investigation of IPV (intimate partner violence) and the broader crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women and relatives (MMIWR/MMIP)—and the systemic failures that leave families searching on their own. Anyone with information about Pepita's disappearance is asked to contact Albuquerque Police Department: 505-768-2020 or the Bernalillo County District Attorney's Office: 505-222-1101  There is a 3,000 dollar reward in her case.  Season 25 covers the efforts of family advocates across the United States, and focuses on the loved ones they're fighting for.  Anita's Venmo to support search and community awareness efforts (we have verified this is Anita' account): venmo.com/anita-king-86 Rallystarter for Pepita's Case: https://rallystarter.com/rally/2917/continued-investigation-in-the-disappearance-of-pepita-readhair Submit a case to The Fall Line: https://www.thefalllinepodcast.com/case-submissions Laurah's book LAY THEM TO REST: https://www.hachettebooks.com/titles/laurah-norton/lay-them-to-rest/9780306828805/ Sources at our website: https://www.thefalllinepodcast.com/sources Join us on Patreon to fund therapy initiatives: https://www.patreon.com/thefalllinepodcast We work with Amplitude Media Partners (AMP) to power our advertising and grow with the right sponsors.
