Audiochuck

For years, some law enforcement agencies have replaced the faces of traditional playing card decks with images of missing and murdered people and distributed those cards in prisons hoping inmates would come forward with information needed to crack these cold cases wide open. 

Now, audiochuck is dealing you in. 

Each week, we will be working with investigators and family members to bring you the details of some of the coldest cases from around the country in hopes that someone listening can finally bring these victims the justice they deserve.

The Deck

Our card this week is Jeffrey Dale Nichols, the 6 of Diamonds from Utah.

Early one June morning in 2004, Jeffrey Nichols told his girlfriend he was meeting his ex-wife in a shopping center parking lot to buy a set of golf clubs. But his ex-wife told police they were getting together at a McDonald's for a family meeting. No matter which version is true, one thing is for certain: After the morning of June 8th, 2004, Jeff was never seen again. And not only does his story include an honest-to-god, real-life burn book – we also found a clue that had been sitting in plain sight for the past 20 years that just might prove someone is lying

 • If you know anything about the disappearance of Jeffrey Dale Nichols, detectives want to hear from you. Please contact the Salt Lake City Police Department at 
801-799-3000 • .

Jeffrey Dale Nichols (6 of Diamonds, Utah)

Our card this week is Kenneth "Kenny" Floyd, a Wild Card from Colorado.

When Kenneth “Kenny” Floyd was found dead inside his apartment in Aurora, Colorado, in 1995, detectives found a clue they hoped would lead right to his killer — a trail of their suspect’s blood leading from Kenny’s door to the front of his building. That blood evidence allowed investigators to develop a DNA profile that they traced to one particular island in the Caribbean, bringing them closer than ever to finding answers for Kenny’s close-knit family. But a series of volcanic eruptions on the island destroyed the very records investigators needed to ID Kenny’s killer. Still, the genealogist working on Kenny’s case is hopeful that if more people with ancestry from that island, or the East Coast of the United States, upload their DNA profiles to GEDMatch and select the option to opt-in for law enforcement, she’ll be able to fill in the rest of the suspect’s family tree….and if she can do that, investigators might be able to finally close this case. 

 • If you have any information on the murder of Kenny Floyd, please contact Aurora Police Department Cold Case Detective Jason McDonald at 
303-739-6013 • or 
jamcdona@auroragov.org • . You can also submit an anonymous tip to the Metro Denver Crime Stoppers by calling 
720-913-7867 • . 

 • If you have any family from the island of Montserrat or the East Coast of the United States, please consider uploading your DNA profile to GEDMatch and selecting the option to opt-in for law enforcement. If anyone you know might have ancestry connected to that island or the eastern U.S., please tell them about Kenny’s case and encourage them to upload their DNA and opt-in as well.

Kenneth "Kenny" Floyd (Wild Card, Colorado)

Our card this week is Lois West, the Ace of Hearts from Virginia. 

One morning in August 1986, a contractor showed up to work on the floors in a vacant house in Williamsburg, Virginia. When he arrived, he found a woman on her side in the mostly-full bathtub. In her wake were a trail of clues: a U.S. Army class ring, a mysterious hat with feathers, and sightings in what were likely her final hours. 

Still, investigators have evidence on file from 1986 that may help solve the case. 

 • Anyone with information can call the James City County Police Department at 
757-253-1800 • or the Hampton Roads Crime Line at 
1-888-LOCK-U-UP • .

Lois West (Ace of Hearts, Virginia)

Our card this week is Daphne Hope, the 8 of Spades from Colorado. 

In the summer of 2001, Daphne Hope vanished… and for over seven long years, her case disappeared into the reams of files at the Denver Police Department. And even when new detectives did start digging, no one has been able to piece together exactly what happened to Daphne. Over the years, theories about her disappearance have varied wildly – from sex work and drug deals to a serial killer. There was even speculation that Daphne wasn’t missing at all, that she was hiding in protective custody. And then there’s the man she lived with at the time – what might he know about her disappearance? 

 • If you have any information about the disappearance of Daphne Hope in August of 2001, please get in touch with Detective Jason McDonald of the Aurora Police Department at 
303-739-6013 • , or you can email him at: 
jamcdona@auroragov.org

Daphne Hope (8 of Spades, Colorado)

Our cards this week are Ronda Taylor and Bonnie Ryther, the King of Clubs and 9 of Diamonds from Florida. 

There is a man serving a life sentence in a Florida prison for his part in the 1989 murder of a 29-year-old pregnant woman named Donna Callahan. Two brothers were ultimately convicted for her abduction – and each of them pointed to the other as the ultimate preparator. But only one of them would go on to confess to over a dozen other murders. That man is now considered, by some, to be one of the deadliest killers on Florida’s Gulf Coast. And if his original confessions are to be believed, then not one, but two Fort Walton Beach cases could be closed. Right now, one detective is making it his mission to find out once and for all: Can he prove Mark Riebe is the serial killer everyone thinks he is? And was he–or someone else entirely–responsible for the murders of Ronda Taylor and Bonnie Ryther? 

 • If you know anything about the murders of Ronda Taylor or Bonnie Ryther in Florida’s Gulf Coast, you can contact Detective Wilson directly at 
850-797-2458 • . You can also call the Emerald Coast Crime Stoppers at 
850-863-TIPS • .

Ronda Taylor and Bonnie Ryther (the King of Clubs and 9 of Diamonds, Florida)

In September 1980, a Holiday Inn hotel in rural Iowa became the scene of a shocking double murder: a couple was found dead in their hotel bed, covered in lacerations. And the scene around them is one of the strangest and most puzzling I’ve ever come across in all my work. It’s one of the reasons this case has gained notoriety over time: I mean, to this day, the hotel where the couple lost their lives is still visited by true crime fanatics.

Despite multiple suspects – and three agencies contributing to the investigation – no one has ever been arrested or charged in connection with Rose and Roger’s deaths.

But… we have an exclusive update – something is about to happen in the Rose and Roger case that just might solve this nearly 50-year-old mystery. 

 • If you have any information about the murders of Roger Atkison and Rose Burkert, you can call the Iowa County Sheriff’s Office at 
319-642-7307 • .

Rose Burkert and Roger Atkison (9 of Diamonds, Iowa)

Our card this week is Tangie Sims, the 9 of Diamonds from Colorado.

When a young woman was found brutally murdered in an Aurora, Colorado alleyway in October 1996, one eagle-eyed detective zeroed in on forensic evidence he hoped would lead him to her killer. But one by one, that evidence ruled out every person they thought may have killed 25-year-old Tangie Sims and eventually her case went cold. And it stayed cold until new detectives revisited old evidence with new technology, took a look at one particular family tree and finally found who they’d been looking for. 

 • If you or someone you know is looking for answers in an unsolved case and think there might be a connection to Tangie Sims’ case, contact Aurora Police Department Cold Case Detective Jason McDonald by phone at 
303-739-6013 • or by email 
jamcdona@auroragov.org • . You can also submit an anonymous tip to the the Metro Denver Crime Stoppers by calling 
720-913-7867 • .

Tangie Sims (9 of Diamonds, Colorado)

Our card this week is Thomas Mather, the Seven of Diamonds from Iowa. 

Nothing causes the true crime community to stir more than a case with the open-ended question of did he? Or didn’t he? Well, except that is, when the question is did SHE?

For longer than 32-year-old Thomas Mather was alive, a rural town in Iowa has been haunted by their only unsolved homicide. The former Sheriff told us it’s the only who dun it they have left.

Does no foreign DNA evidence and strange behavior mean that Dawn Mather had to have been involved in killing her husband? Or does an unidentified fingerprint and tire tracks prove she didn’t?

 • If you know anything about the murder of Thomas Mather, investigators want to hear from you. Please contact the Iowa Attorney General’s Cold Case Unit at 
800-242-5100 • , or to remain anonymous, you can call Crime Stoppers at 
563-886-6618 • .

Thomas Mather (Seven of Diamonds from Iowa)

Our card this week is Shad Gandy Kaydea, the 2 of Spades from Rhode Island.

A late-night fire in a Rhode Island cemetery led to the discovery of the body of Shad Gandy Kaydea, a young father and aspiring rapper who was strangled, then set on fire. As detectives peeled back the layers of Shad’s life, they uncovered volatile family tensions, a suspicious life insurance policy, and a man whose story kept changing. More than a decade later, his killer still walks free… but someone out there knows the truth.

 • If you have any information about the murder of Shad Gandy Kaydea, contact Cranston Police at 
401-942-2211 • or submit an anonymous tip by texting the keyword CRANSTONPD and your tip to 847411. You can also contact Rhode Island’s tipline at

Shad Gandy Kaydea (2 of Spades, Rhode Island)

Our card this week is Theresa Dusevitch, the Queen of Diamonds from Florida. 

For 50 years, Theresa Dusevitch’s case was intrinsically tied to Debra Espey’s murder. Both women were 19 years old when they were killed back in 1973, just eight months apart. There were other similarities, too: Both women were found nude from the waist down, their shirts pulled up, hands over their heads, with head wounds as their cause of death. The wooded area where each young woman was found was just three miles apart in and near a town, ironically enough, named Niceville, Florida. But at the end of 2025, Debra Epsey’s case was solved, and her killer turned out to be an acquaintance of hers, Dennis Murphy. In learning that Dennis killed Debra, law enforcement was able to conclude through DNA that he did not kill Theresa–meaning all the connections that seemed to be linked were just a coincidence. So now, detectives are looking at Theresa’s case with new eyes. And with the momentum of one 1973 cold case solved under their belt, they’re hoping you might help them get another.

 • If you know anything about the murder of Theresa Dusevitch on November 23, 1973, please call the Emerald Coast Crime Stoppers at 
850-836-TIPS (8477) • or submit an anonymous tip at 
emeraldcoastcrimestoppers.com.
