At the past two hotels I've stayed at, a fire alarm has gone off. First day back in the office after CrimeCon and there's a fire drill. I'm beginning to wonder if it's me...😆

Melody was beloved by her family, but went for more than 40 years without her name. Her story will be shared on National Geographic TV, Disney+ and Hulu this August. It was a privilege to work on her case alongside my former colleagues at DNA Doe Project.

Hopefully we’ll have tomatoes, cucumbers, hot peppers, bell peppers, onions, and cilantro in a couple months! Our first attempt at trying to garden so 🤞🏻
