With the help of new information that has surfaced, I’m able to fit together pieces of the puzzle that had long remained disconnected. This episode traces the impact of that development—and the new clarity it brings to the investigation.
Anna receives some long awaited documents, uncovering a lead she never expected. A conversation she thought impossible finally happens, revealing critical new information. But just as the pieces start falling into place, a new discovery shifts the investigation.
No one's the villain in their own story.
In this episode Anna gives updates from leads she has been tracking down. Anna also has a meeting that doesn't get the results she was hoping for. However, a new lead that brings new information comes to light. You know what they say, when one door closes, another door opens.
I know I've been quiet. Here's an update before the next episode.
A small detail revealed in a recent interview connects back to information from season one, bridging the gap between two criminals. The Eddie Wells case continues to be the nexus in every leg of the investigation.
In this episode Anna focuses on two of the men convicted in Troop 137. More information comes to the surface that leads to implications of a cover-up , conspiracy or blackmail on a much larger scale. You'll also hear from an individual that witnessed the theft of an important recurring item.
This is the second half of episode 29. After you listen I think you'll understand why I had to break this up into two parts. Out of all the information I've received during this six year investigation, this is the most shocking so far. Every time I think it can't get worse, it does.
This is a two part episode. The second part will come out tomorrow night at midnight.

New Orleans Unsolved began as a deep dive into one mysterious death. But in the six years Anna dedicated to investigate the cases that eventually became the basis for both seasons of the podcast, she discovered that rarely were the details isolated.

The Rope Murders took place at a time which preceded what we've all come to know as forensic science. The murders of Dennis Turcotte, Mark Richardson and Daniel Dewey were also comitted before the internet age . Anna's investigation of the murders has never revolved around web-sleuthing. Much of it has revolved around making contact and connections. It has led her on a path to retrace the trai...
Dead end roads don't always lead to dead ends, sometimes they lead to answers. Anna takes a trip to meet a listener that helps connect the dots to a location she has been searching for for years.
From digging into old records and newspaper archives to tracing faded genealogy lines, Anna has used different investigative techniques and tools. But the one tool that perhaps produced the most revelatory information has been a map that became available through a cab company. In this episode, Anna details what she placed on this map, and in turn, what she learned from it. She also makes a sho...
