Send us a text

On a warm summer Chicago night, June 1974 someone brutally stabbed and murdered 25-year-old Becky Breedlove in her apartment. Bubbly, cute and fun loving she was a transplant to Chicago from Mississippi in the prime of her life.  She had a young son who was staying with her parents back in Mississippi at the time she was murdered. She worked hard and loved to socialize in her neighborhood. But Chicago can be a rough place for those not familiar with it. Becky, whether she knew it or not, may have put herself in harm's way. Two of her romantic partners were married men and some of the friends she socialized with were known members of Chicago's Organized Crime.  In Episode 4 Detective Mike Hammond will walk you through the case and tell you the facts as they are known.  Maybe you can discover the key to solving this crime and finally bring closure for Becky's family after 50 years.
