Cold Case Kansas: A Social Detective Podcast
Join MaryAnne retired Criminologist, with 20 years of experience as we investigate over 200 unsolved crimes across Kansas & bordering states. Behind every podcast there is a victim, their families, friends & loved ones. They are left looking for answers. On our podcast we believe it’s our job to treat their cases with respect, integrity & compassion. Cases get solved by keeping the victim & details of the case active on social media & crowdsourcing information. Our purpose is to bring widespread visibility to every case to bring answers and potentially stop additional crimes.
