The Trail Went Cold

June 6, 1978. Jericho, Vermont. Michael Reapp, the husband of 32-year old Grace Reapp, claims he returned home from work and discovered that Grace and their five-year old daughter, Gracie Reapp, had disappeared, though he alleges Grace left behind a note stating that they ran off voluntarily. Eighteen years later, Michael himself goes missing after police announce that Grace and Gracie’s disappearances have been reclassified as a homicide investigation and a search is being performed of their former property. While Michael is eventually indicted on two counts of murders, he winds up dead before he can be arrested or stand trial, so no trace of Grace or Gracie is ever found. Was Michael Reapp actually responsible for killing his wife and daughter? On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a convoluted missing persons case containing a number of surprising twists and turns. If you happen to have any information about this case, please contact the Vermont State Police at (802) 524-5993 Additional Reading: https://charleyproject.org/case/grace-marie-canto-reapp https://charleyproject.org/case/grace-noel-reapp https://www.newspapers.com/image/203304327/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/203304377/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/202452571/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/202452843/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/203304915/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/203304981/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/863479135/ https://www.capecodtimes.com/story/news/2001/06/07/clues-to-missing-woman-sought/51004169007/ https://www.rutlandherald.com/news/vt-police-say-man-wanted-in-1978-murders-is-dead/article_20bee1b7-8322-507f-a632-20ffaf6ebd3c.html https://www.hngn.com/articles/46885/20141023/hngn-true-crime-feature-where-are-brian-reapps-mother-and-sister-crime-contributor-jon-leiberman-reports-on-the-36-year-old-jericho-vt-double-murder-mystery.htm “The Trail Went Cold” is on Patreon.

November 21, 1997. Powhattan, Kansas. 28-year old Jodie Bordeaux, who happens to be seven months pregnant, is spending the evening with her husband at their rural farmhouse when several bullets from a semi-automatic rifle are fired into the residence. A bullet strikes Jodie in the head and kills her instantly and her unborn baby daughter, Jordan Shay, also dies. There is speculation that Jodie’s murder might be connected to a conflict from her managerial job at a casino on the Kickapoo Reservation, as a troublesome employee had been fired there under her watch. However, even though investigators have at least three potential suspects in mind, there is not enough to implicate anyone in the crime, so it remains unsolved. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the unsolved homicide of a pregnant woman. In addition, we will be briefly discussing the unsolved murder of 21-year old Amanda Aldridge, who was also shot to death inside her home in Calhoun, Louisiana in April 2020. If you have information on the murder of Jodie Bordeaux, please contact the Brown County Sheriff’s Office at (785) 742-7125 or the Kansas City Bureau of Investigation at 1-800-572-7463. If you have information on the murder of Amanda Aldridge, please contact the Ouachita Parish Sheriff’s Office at (318) 324-2669 or Crime Stoppers at North Delta at (318) 388-CASH (2274).

July 17, 2002. Butler County, Pennsylvania. After spending the night partying and drinking, 15-year old Scott Fosnaught and his 15-year old best friend, Shawn Baur, leave a friend’s house in order to walk back home during the early morning hours. Shortly thereafter, their bodies are discovered by the side of a rural road and Scott’s injuries seem to indicate that he was the victim of a hit-and-run by a vehicle. However, Shawn only has some fatal head wounds and a crushed skull, but since he has no injuries beneath his shoulders, it appears that he was killed in another fashion. This makes the boys’ families suspect that their deaths were not an accident, but no suspects are ever identified and the truth about what happened remains unknown. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the baffling unexplained deaths of two teenage boys. In addition, we will also discuss the unsolved 1992 murder of David Hurley, who was shot to death in an apparent road rage incident in neighbouring Allegheny County. If you have information about the deaths of Scott Fosnaught and Shawn Baur, please contact the Pennsylvania State Police at (724) 284-8100 or Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers at 1-800-4PA-TIPS (1-800-472-8477). if you have information on the murder of David Hurley, please contact the Allegheny County Police Department at (412) 473-1200 or 1-833-ALL-TIPS (1-833-255-8477).

July 31, 1979. Albuquerque, New Mexico. 49-year old Lola Marvin plans to board a flight to Oklahoma City, but she never arrives. Four days later, Lola is found shot to death inside her car in the parking lot of Albuquerque International Airport. In September 1984, Lola’s 55-year old husband, Robert Marvin, disappears after visiting his new fiancée in Moab, Utah and his abandoned car is eventually discovered in an Albuquerque parking lot. Investigators explore the possibility that the two cases are connected, but even though an anonymous caller shares the identity of Lola’s alleged killer, her murder is never solved and Robert is never found.

While his great-aunt is napping, four-year old Tristen “Buddy” Myers, a child with a history of behavioral problems and violent outbursts, disappears from the property of their rural home. Two of the family’s dogs disappear alongside Buddy and while they both resurface days later, a massive search effort fails to turn up any trace of the child. Over the years, investigators explore a number of different leads and debate whether Buddy could have been abducted or died of exposure in the woods, but there is no conclusive evidence pointing in any direction. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a tragic unsolved missing children’s case. if you have any information about this case, please contact the Sampson County Sheriff’s Office at (910) 592-4141.

July 22, 1989. Peoria, Arizona. Rob Page, the husband of 32-year old Pam Page, claims that she disappears from their home and leaves behind a letter revealing that she ran off with another woman named “Sarah”. Rob also says that Pam took one of their dogs with her, along with most of her personal possessions and $60,000 in cash that she was keeping inside the safe of the video store she owned. However, Rob does not immediately report Pam missing to the police and constantly changes his story about what happened and it is soon discovered that Rob typed up the letter himself and forged Pam’s signature on it. Investigators are also unable to confirm that this mysterious “Sarah” actually existed, but while there is suspicion directed towards Rob, there is not enough evidence to charge him with anything and no trace of Pam is ever found. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a controversial spousal disappearance which was featured on “Unsolved Mysteries”.

November 10, 1951. Minneapolis, Minnesota. Three brothers from the Klein family – eight-year old Kenneth, six-year old David and four-year old Danny – leave their residence to go play in nearby Farview Park, but they never return home. When a search effort is launched, the brothers’ scents are tracked to a bank of the Mississippi River about a mile away. After two woollen caps are found on a layer of ice, the Minneapolis Police Department concludes that all three boys fell into the water and drowned. However, there are a number of suspicious details to make the boys’ family suspect they were kidnapped and harmed, but even though the case is reinvestigated decades later, no trace of the Kenneth, David or Danny is ever found. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the unsolved disappearance of the Klein brothers, a rare case where three siblings went missing simultaneously. Special thanks to listener to Thomas Crow for narrating the opening of this episode.

December 14, 2011. Andover, Massachusetts. 69-year old John “Jack” Magee and his 67-year old wife, Geraldine “Jeri” Magee, are found shot to death inside their mansion in what appears to be a professional hit. There are no signs of robbery or forced entry at the scene, though it turns out that the couple’s SUV was stolen and driven 20 miles to the North End of Boston before it was set on fire. Even though the Magees are wealthy and Jack owned a successful construction company, they do not appear to have any known enemies and investigators are unable to find anything in the couple’s backgrounds to shed any light on potential motives for their murders. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a perplexing double homicide from New England which has remained unsolved for nearly 14 years.

June 24, 1991. Boarhills, Scotland. The body of 33-year old Sandy Drummond is found on a farm track across the road from his cottage and it is determined that he was choked to death with what is described as a “ju-jitsu stranglehold”. In the days prior to his death, Sandy had suddenly quit his job without notice and withdrew nearly all of his money from his accounts, leading to speculation that someone may have been bullying or blackmailing him. Investigators explore a number of different leads, including eyewitness sightings of an orange car parked outside Sandy’s cottage before he was killed, but are unable to determine a clear-cut motive for the crime. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we travel to Scotland to explore one of their most perplexing unsolved murders.

Mike vanishes without a trace and the abandoned ATV is eventually found on a steep hill located a mile from his property.

October 19, 2001. Leverett’s Chapel, Texas. After leaving her house to go for a walk on a nearby trail, 15-year old Jessica Sadler never returns home and her body is discovered underneath a trash pile at a dumpsite in a wooded area four days later. Jessica’s cause of death is determined to be blunt force trauma and suspicion is directed towards her 18-year old friend, Curtis DeWayne Howard, who confesses to having had sex with Jessica on the day she disappeared. Since Jessica was underage, Curtis is charged with sexual assault, but winds up being acquitted at trial and there is not enough evidence to link him or anyone else to Jessica’s death. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the tragic unsolved murder of Jessica Sadler, which has remained unsolved for over two decades. if you have any information about this case, please contact the Rusk County Sheriff’s Office at (903) 657-3581.

September 4, 1977. Ewing Township, New Jersey. The nude body of 25-year old graduate student Sigrid Stevenson is discovered beneath a piano cover inside the Main Stage Theater of Kendall Hall on the campus of Trenton State College. She has been bludgeoned to death with a blunt object and since Sigrid had been staying in Kendall Hall that weekend, she was likely attacked while practicing the piano on stage. A number of people are looked at as potential suspects, including campus police officers, campus staff and members of a theatre group, but there is no conclusive evidence to implicate any of them and Sigrid’s murder remains unsolved. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a cold case that was recently featured on the Netflix reboot of “Unsolved Mysteries”.

September 2, 1959. Seattle, Washington. 62-year old Pearl Kongsle discovers a paper sack on the walkway outside her residence and when she bends over to pick it up, a bomb goes off and kills her. Even though a car containing three teenage boys is seen speeding away from the scene following the blast, investigators are unable to turn up any major leads or compelling suspects with a motive to harm Pearl. It turns out that months earlier, two relatives of Pearl’s late husband died after a mysterious poisoning and there was another strange incident where sticks of dynamite were discovered on the property of Pearl’s brother-in-law, but no link can be found between these events and Pearl’s murder. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the bizarre unsolved bombing death of Pearl Kongsle.

August 7, 1996. Travis County, Texas. After running errands with her family, six-year old Katherine Korzilius is dropped off at a community mailbox in her neighbourhood and is last seen walking in the direction of her home. Fifteen minutes later, Katherine’s mother discovers her body lying in the road about a quarter-mile away from their residence. An autopsy reveals that she has a fractured skull, so the medical examiner concludes that Katherine was likely thrown or fell from a moving vehicle. While investigators suspect that Katherine may have grabbed onto the back of her mother’s SUV as it drove away before she fell off, her family believes she was murdered by an unknown party in a botched abduction attempt. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the tragic unexplained death of Katherine Korzilius.

June 20, 2009. Bowen Island, British Columbia. While attending a house party, 17-year old Jodi Henrickson leaves during the early morning hours with her estranged 20-year old boyfriend, Gavin Arnott. Numerous witnesses report seeing them walking down the road together and Gavin claims that after they got into an argument, he and Jodi went their separate ways before she vanished without a trace. Since Gavin had a history of violence against Jodi and a no-contact order at that time, he becomes a person of interest in her disappearance, but there is no evidence to implicate him and Jodi is never found. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a missing persons case from Canada which has gone unsolved for nearly 16 years.

August 22, 2011. Chilliwack, British Columbia. After not hearing from him for three days, the parents of 38-year old Corey Scherbey enter his residence and discover his body in a kneeling position in front of his couch and there is a large pool of fluids on the floor. The police conclude that Corey died of an accidental drug overdose and started decomposing before he was found. However, since Corey’s father had seen an unidentified woman in his house with him prior to his death and there is other suspicious evidence pointing towards foul play – including an anonymous cryptic letter - the Scherbeys believe that Corey was killed by an outside party. In 2020, a coroner’s inquest is held in which a jury agrees with the original ruling that Corey’s death was accidental, but his family continues to maintain he was murdered. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we travel back to our home country of Canada to explore a suspicious death which is still surrounded by unanswered questions.  If you have any information about this case, please contact the Chilliwack detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police at (604) 792-4611.

October 11, 1991. Bolney, England. The dismembered torso of a male homicide victim which has been rolled up in some carpet is discovered in a wooded area next to a bridle path. His head and both of his hands have been removed and since the victim cannot be identified, he is buried under the name “Unknown Male”. Investigators explore a number of different leads, including a wanted German fraudster who was living in the area at the time the torso was discovered, as well as the possibility that the victim’s death was a gangland killing, but the crime is never solved. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we travel back to the United Kingdom to explore the bizarre story of an unidentified decedent known only as “The Bolney Torso”.

October 24, 1998. Brooklyn, New York. 28-year old Kristine Kupka, who happens to be five months’ pregnant, is seen leaving her residence alongside the father of her child, Darshanand “Rudy” Persaud. Kristine never returns, but even though Rudy claims that he took her to a shopping mall and dropped her off a few blocks from her home, his story cannot be corroborated. It turns out that Rudy was married to another woman and had asked Kristine to get an abortion for fear that the revelation about her pregnancy would ruin his life.
