166: Karen Read Investigator's TEXTS FROM HELL, Woman Stabs 3-Year-Old At Grocery Store, & An International Manhunt

In a complex case that spans across borders, law enforcement agencies are involved in an international manhunt following the perplexing disappearance of a young family.

A young family of three - Sariah, Aaron, and Nadia - has gone missing, prompting an international manhunt.

Law enforcement officers are actively searching for 21-year-old Aaron Ong, his two-year-old daughter Sariah Ong Harmon, and 21-year-old Nadia Cole, who is allegedly engaged to Aaron. Originally, Aaron was thought to be taking his daughter camping in Montana as he was seen buying camping gear and a map of the area. However, the police now suspect that Montana might have been a deceptive stop and have issued an arrest warrant for Aaron on charges of custodial interference when he did not return Sariah to her mother, Samara, as scheduled on June 3rd.

The police believe Aaron and Nadia may have fled to Mexico with Sariah, Sariah's young daughter, after Aaron failed to return Sariah to her mother as part of a custody exchange.

The investigation has grown with the involvement of the FBI, as it's believed that Aaron may have taken Nadia and Sariah into Mexico. They are possibly traveling in a black 2014 Cadillac with Idaho license plates. Although it remains unclear if the family has successfully crossed into Mexico, the public has been alerted to watch for their vehicle.

The case is puzzling because Nadia was seen leaving an airport, where she was about to board a flight, with a distressed expression, raising questions about whether she went willingly with Aaron.

Nadia Cole was initially reported missing after she failed to board a flight to Italy with her family to celebrate her graduation from WSU. She left her belongings at the gate ...

In a tragic incident revealing weaknesses in the mental health and justice system, a woman's unchecked mental instability led to a horrific act of violence against a child.

A 3-year-old boy named Julian Wood was fatally stabbed in a grocery store parking lot by a woman named Bianca Ellis.

Julian Wood, a three-year-old boy, was fatally attacked in a grocery store parking lot by Bianca Ellis, who has a documented history of mental health issues and erratic behavior.

Bianca previously confessed to a murder and expressed a desire to kill again. She has been involved in multiple incidents of battery and arrests on various occasions. Despite her history, Bianca was repeatedly released due to the unavailability of mental health professionals to conduct necessary evaluations. Just days before the stabbing incident, she was released from custody, highlighting a concerning gap in the justice system.

Bianca's mother disclosed that her daughter suffers from hallucinations and had recently ceased taking medication. The host emphasizes Julian's death might have been averted if the justice system had more effective resources and stricter policies to manage Bianca's evident mental disturbances and threat to the public.

During the attack, Julian and his mother, Margo, were assaulted by Bianca while leaving the grocery store. Julian sustained stabbings to the face and back, ultimately leading to his death, despite being rushed to a hospital. Margo, who attempted to ...

In the Karen Reed case, Trooper Michael Proctor, the lead investigator, has come under intense scrutiny for unprofessional conduct and potential bias.

In the Karen Reed case, the lead investigator, Trooper Michael Proctor, has come under intense scrutiny for his inappropriate, unprofessional, and potentially biased conduct.

Trooper Proctor sent a series of derogatory, objectifying, and disturbing text messages about the suspect, Karen Reed, to his friends, raising questions about his ability to conduct an impartial investigation.

Trooper Michael Proctor admitted to sending inappropriate messages about Karen Reed to his friends, including derogatory and offensive language. He described Reed using terms such as "whack job cunt" and made references to her physical appearance and medical condition. He acknowledged these texts were juvenile and regrettable.

The defense has also suggested Trooper Proctor may have planted evidence and had improper relationships with others involved in the case, further undermining the integrity of the investigation.

The defense questioned the integrity of Proctor's investigation, suggesting he may have planted evidence, specifically pieces of a tail light at the scene after Reed’s car was towed. Proctor’s objectivity was further called into question due to his relationship with Brian Albert, the homeowner where the party took place, and the Albert family. Allegations that Trooper Proctor’s relationships affected his investigative objectivity were confirmed to be true.

Trooper Proctor was the subject of an internal investigation for potential violation of department policy connected to the Karen Reed case. Moreover, he was revealed to have been texting about the investigation with friends from high school using his personal phone, sharing privileged information. Trooper Proctor is also criticized for expressing frustration with the medical examiner's ruling of John's death as undetermined and for his alleged attempts to influence the medical examiner’s determination of John's cause of death.

The defense argues th ...

Recent developments in the true crime landscape have brought to light new, disturbing details in ongoing cases, with the public demanding accountability and closure.

In the Madelina Kojikari case, there have been no clear answers about her disappearance, and no one has been held accountable in a meaningful way.

Madelina's mother and stepfather were arrested for failure to report her disappearance, but they have not been charged with her murder or abduction.

Madelina Kojikari was last seen in November 2022 getting off her school bus and has since vanished. Her mother, Diana, and stepfather, Chris, were arrested and charged with "failure to report the disappearance of a child" after waiting three weeks to report her missing, prompted only by a school truancy officer's inquiry.

There are disturbing allegations and theories about potential child abuse, trafficking, and cover-ups in this case, but the lack of progress and transparency continues to frustrate the public.

Diana and Chris's lack of timely reporting has led to speculation about potential child abuse, trafficking, and cover-ups. Diana pleaded guilty to the charge of failing to report Madelina's disappearance and served the maximum jail time. Chris went to trial, where he was found guilty in just 15 minutes due to incriminating evidence showing his awareness of Madelina's absence. He received a suspended sentence and 30 months of supervised probation. In his trial, Chris suggested that Diana hid Madelina with her Moldovian family due to unspecified threats, but no definitive answers about Madelina's whereabouts have emerged.

In the Madeline Soto case, a large document dump has provided new, disturbing details about the abuse she suffered, raising questions about her mother's potential involvement or cover-up.

Meanwhile, the Madeline Soto case has taken a grim turn as almost 900 pages of documents were recently released. Annie Elise, the podcast host, has sifted through these documents, uncovering the disturbing and potential ...
