Before dawn on July 4, 1997, Bonnie Lee Schultz was driving home after a late night out with friends. She was never seen again. For nearly 30 years, Indianapolis investigators suspected her husband’s involvement in her disappearance, but with no sign of Bonnie or her car, the case went cold. Could detectives have overlooked an unidentified predator who targeted her?

MISSING: Bonnie Lee Schultz

In August 2008, a woman in rural Kentucky survived one of the most brutal assaults we have ever reported, but her strength that night ensured her attacker was identified and arrested. Years later, he is a free man living in the community. As we examined his past, we uncovered unsettling similarities to another case that has haunted a family for decades. Now, two families are searching for answers — and they need your help.

SURVIVING: Ernest Pine

When 20-year-old Amanda Wienckowski vanished one night in Buffalo, her mom, Leslie, refused to sit back and wait for answers. She begged police to listen and even parked outside the house where Amanda was last seen — for weeks — hoping her daughter would walk out the front door. What followed would test every ounce of a mother’s strength: a case full of contradictions, silence from the system, and a fight that would stretch on for more than a decade. This is the story of a mother who wouldn’t let the world forget her daughter — no matter how long it takes for justice. 

You can track the status of Assembly Bill 8986 at this link: https://legiscan.com/NY/bill/A08986/2025

 • You can also comment on that site or find a local legislator to champion Leslie’s request for a 20-year extension to Article 78.
 • Find the NY State Assembly Directory here: 
https://nyassembly.gov/mem/ • and please include the bill number when reaching out

You can find Sexual Assault resources by texting HOPE to 64673 for RAINN’s National Sexual Assault Hotline.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF: Amanda Wienckowski

In November 2024, Ashley Flowers sat down with John Ramsey at his home for a one-on-one conversation about the murder of his daughter, JonBenét Ramsey.

In the year since that interview, John has met with the Boulder Police Department and appeared in multiple media outlets, pushing for additional testing in his daughter’s case. Ashley has also continued meeting with people connected to the case, and hopes to one day soon have an update to share.

Following Boulder Police’s most recent update on Dec. 12, 2025, it appears more testing is planned and efforts continue to solve the nearly 30-year mystery of who killed JonBenét. John's conversation with Ashley may give us a clue into what items they're looking at testing.

INFAMOUS: A Conversation with JonBenét Ramsey's Father

Law enforcement Explorer programs were created to mentor teens interested in policing. But decades of weak oversight created an environment where officers could manipulate that trust. Some exploited their roles, using their authority to groom, abuse, and silence the very teens they were entrusted to guide.

Staying Safe in Youth Law Enforcement Programs:

If you or your child is involved in a Police Explorer program – or any youth mentorship run by law enforcement – there are steps you can take to reduce risk and create safer boundaries.

Ask direct questions • . Who runs the program? What are the policies around texting, ride-alongs, and one-on-one interactions? Are there rules that limit contact between adult officers and minors outside of scheduled events?
Insist on transparency • . Reputable programs should have clear, written guidelines about communication, supervision, and conduct. Ask to see them.
Monitor ride-alongs • . Know who your child is riding with, how long they're gone, and what the reporting procedures are.
Watch the tech • . Officers or advisors should never be Snapchatting, DMing, or texting minors privately. Monitor app usage and discuss healthy boundaries.
Get involved • . Show up to meetings. Get to know the adults running the program. Your presence as a parent or guardian helps make the space safer for everyone.
Keep communication open • . Let your child know they can talk to you about anything -- especially if something makes them uncomfortable. Make it clear that they won’t be in trouble for speaking up.

Getting Help:

If you or someone you know has experienced abuse in a Police Explorer or similar youth program, here’s what to do:

Believe them • . If a child or teen discloses abuse, believe what they say. Stay calm, listen, and affirm that it’s not their fault. Praise them for coming forward.
Report it • . If the child is in danger, call 911. Otherwise, contact your local police, sheriff's department, or state child protection agency. If you’re concerned local police might have a conflict of interest, contact your state police, state attorney general, or the FBI.
Document/preserve everything • . Save messages, screenshots, call logs — anything that could help support the report.
Seek emotional support • : Abuse by a trusted adult is incredibly disorienting. You and/or your child deserve compassionate care from someone trained in trauma -- like a therapist, school counselor, or crisis line advocate.
Connect with survivor resources • . Many organizations offer specialized support for young people.
Consult legal counsel • : Some survivors explore civil legal action against individuals or institutions. An attorney familiar with institutional abuse cases can help assess your options.

Red Flags: Signs of Grooming or Abuse in Explorer Programs:

Abuse by authority figures often begins with grooming -- a gradual, often-subtle process that builds trust before violating it. Here are common warning signs in youth law enforcement programs:

“Special” treatment • . One teen is singled out for attention, gifts, mentorship, or exclusive opportunities not given to others.
Excessive one-on-one contact • . Repeated private ride-alongs, late-night messages, or invitations to hang out off-duty.
Private communication • . The adult uses personal texting apps, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, or other unmonitored channels to talk to a minor.
Overstepping/blurring boundaries • . Inappropriate compliments, jokes about relationships, or sharing personal details not appropriate for a mentor-mentee dynamic.
Isolation • . The adult discourages the teen from talking to others about their relationship or makes the teen feel responsible for their secrecy.
Gaslighting or guilt • . The adult blames the teen for misunderstandings, manipulates their emotions, or makes them feel they’ll “ruin someone’s life” if they speak out.
Physical contact • . Touch that’s unnecessary, prolonged, or makes the teen uncomfortable -- even if it’s framed as casual or accidental.

SCANDAL: Police Explorer Programs

In 2021, 23-year-old Sandra Birchmore was found dead in her apartment. And what Massachusetts investigators quickly called a suicide slowly revealed itself to be something much more sinister. Because out of the woodwork came friends, family, and co-workers with stories that Sandra had told them about her life. Stories of grooming, sexual abuse, and years of misconduct at the hands of several Stoughton Police officers… which began when she was barely a teenager. 

Three officers later resigned from the department. With a 2026 federal trial pending, the whole state has been left to wonder whether Sandra’s death was truly a suicide – as state police continue to maintain – or the end result of something much darker.

MURDERED: Linda Sherman

In 1843, Daniel M’Naghten gunned down another man in broad daylight. But when he was taken to trial things got complicated. His defense argued that he shouldn’t be held fully responsible because he wasn’t in his right mind. However, the courts didn’t know what to do with that because there was no precedent for this kind of thing. So his defense team got to work putting in place a defense strategy that is still used, almost in the exact same way, almost 200 years later.
