True Crime with Rachel Shannon

On August 31, 2022, 16-year-old Gabriel Davies disappeared after a weekend camping trip with a friend named Justin. Following a police investigation, Gabriel later reappeared but was in poor condition. Around the same time, a 51-year-old man was reported missing and was subsequently found dead in his home. This episode examines the timeline, available evidence, and whether the two cases may be connected, drawing on charging documents and multiple news reports.
UPDATE: Both Davies and Yoon, now 17, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder as part of a plea agreement. Prosecutors dropped additional charges of first-degree burglary and unlawful gun possession. Both teenagers are serving 12.5 years in prison for the murder of Daniel McCaw. They will be in their late twenties when eligible for release.

She survived a shooting and gave sworn statements to police, but it still wasn't enough. In December 2022, Meshay Melendez was assaulted and shot at by her boyfriend, Kirkland Warren — a man already facing numerous other charges, including an unresolved murder charge. Investigators ran a danger assessment that scored so high it broke the scale. In the weeks that followed, Warren was repeatedly released from jail; the second release came four days before Meshay and her 7-year-old daughter, Layla Stewart, disappeared without a trace. The episode examines whether more could have been done to prevent their deaths.
