What if the chaos within a police department could hinder justice for a victim? On Code 0.5, we unravel the tangled investigation into Karina Saunders' murder, marked by dismissed charges and an unsettling series of internal police department missteps. With accusations of evidence tampering and civil rights violations, the story takes an unexpected turn as the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation steps in, shifting the spotlight to Kenny Richards—whose involvement with Karina in her final days raises critical questions. We delve into the disarray that left suspects like Jimmy Lee Massey walking free, sparking outrage and questions about the justice system's integrity.

Join us as we explore the poignant moments captured on CCTV, showing Karina entering a red truck at the Newcastle Casino, and the unidentified women attempting to deter her. As buried items on Kenny Richards' property come to light, we discuss the community's growing frustration and the substantial reward offered by an anonymous donor for any information that breaks the case. This episode brings to life the chilling reality of unresolved cases, as Karina's image continues to resonate in Oklahoma through cold case cards reminding the public of her tragic story.

We wrap up this compelling episode with gratitude towards our special guest, Dakota, whose insights enrich our conversation. As we look forward to future episodes, your feedback is a crucial part of our journey to spotlight the lesser-seen aspects of police work.
