    Episode 121: Farewell For Now- Omaha, NE

    This week, Casie and Shannon give a few updates on cases from Nebraska and Kansas that they had mentioned in past episodes when they hit the headline. As well as making the announcement that they are taking a break from making any new episodes or content for the foreseeable future. It was a tough decision after doing this for three years, but one that was needed. They've appreciated everyone who's listened and supported them and will still be available via their social media accounts.
