In this episode of TheColdCases.com Podcast, I sit down with Jody Walsh, sister of missing Will County Sheriff’s Deputy Robin Abrams, who vanished in 1990 under circumstances that still raise hard questions. Jody shares who Robin was beyond the headlines—her courage, her career, and the life stolen from a loving family. We discuss the timeline, alleged threats, key investigative moments, and what Jody believes needs to happen next to move this case forward.
You’ll hear about the family’s decades-long push for answers, the emotional cost of waiting, and how new tips or renewed attention could finally break the silence. If you know something—no matter how small—this is your invitation to speak up.
Why this matters:
Families don’t stop searching. Spotlighting Robin’s story keeps pressure on institutions, empowers witnesses, and honors a sister who refuses to give up.
Listen for:
- Who Robin was behind the badge
- The critical days after her disappearance
- Leads the family still wants re-examined
- How you can help keep Robin’s name in the public eye

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
