Suspect Zero Podcast Suspect Zero

When a case goes cold, one can not imagine a family’s grief when first accepting that their loved one is gone, but now topple that with having no answers at all.  One would hope that the search would never end until the answers came, but this is not always the case.  As of late, many people have been getting more and more involved with helping solve cold cases.

On Sunday July 12th, 2015, NJ Transit Train number 4693 was heading from Philadelphia to Atlantic City at 9:50 pm.  With about 40 passengers and crew on board, the train passed under the Tilton Road bridge in Galloway Twp NJ.  
It was 11:12 pm at Mile Marker 45 when 18 year old Tiffany Valiante was struck by the traveling train. The NJ Transit police deemed Tiffany’s death a suicide without any formal investigation into the facts surrounding her disappearance.  

This twisted and confusing case will leave you with more questions and going down even more rabbit holes than ever before.  

Missing and Indigenous women go unreported everyday.  On Thursday, February 2—Aielah, her sister Kyla and brother, Tim headed to the Pine Center Mall. Aielah and her sister ran into some friends at the mall and the group decided to get together later that evening. Tim opted out and the girls went alone. At some point, Aielah and her sister were separated and went different ways. When her sister, Kyla arrived home early the next morning, she didn’t find her sister at home. A little panic set in and on Friday morning, her mother went to the police to file a missing person’s report. The police told her to wait 78 hours to see if Aielah would show up, and if she didn’t —then she could come back again and file a report.
On February 10, almost a week after she was last seen at the mall, a witness alerted police to seeing something in a ditch alongside Highway 16.  When police went to investigate, they discovered the body of a young woman in the ditch. The body was identified as that of Aielah Auger. Police determined that Aielah had died from blunt force trauma to the head and her death has yet to be solved.   

Sometimes evil lurks in the most unexpected places.  In a setting where you or your family members should be given the utmost care and special attention, no one should ever be questioning an untimely and suspicious death. No one could predict the horror that was about to unfold as a result of predators lurking among them.  

Sometimes the quests we set out to achieve take us on a journey we never expected. A chance encounter can potentially change the course of our lives and set us in a new direction where we are utilized and needed.  Today’s guests illustrate just how the course of a person’s life can take on new meaning.  Not only are they doing humanitarian work, but they were recently featured in the Netflix documentary, “The Times Square Killer,”  where convicted serial killer, Richard Cottingham’s known crimes are uncovered.  Cottingham has admitted to 11 murders, but he has stated that he has committed well over 85 and under 100, that have yet to be solved.  Suspect Zero welcomes, Jennifer Weiss and Peter Vronsky.
