“Just imagine for a moment you had a sister that you grew up together, played together... The love that I have for her is everlasting.” — Rob Camacho, remembering his sister Grisell.

Grisell Camacho vanished and was tragically murdered, leaving behind her grieving mother, siblings, and pet birds. With a lack of mainstream media coverage, her family—led by her fiercely dedicated brother Rob—has taken to community platforms and advocacy to demand answers, an investigation, and accountability from uncooperative local authorities. This is Grisell’s story.

“Honor violence has been largely misclassified by law enforcement, by no fault of their own. They simply didn’t know the signs and symptoms of honor-related violence. They do not have the training on how to effectively identify and investigate these cases.” — Stephanie Baric, Executive Director of the AHA Foundation.

An estimated 23 to 27 honor killings occur in the U.S. each year. Studies note that 91 percent of victims in North America are murdered for being “too Westernized,” and in incidents involving daughters 18 years or younger, a father is almost always involved. Because this is a particular type of violence that does not fit neatly into the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting statistics, it often remains hidden. These are their stories.

In Part One, Josue and I dive deep into the harrowing history and heart-wrenching stories of survivors from indigenous residential and boarding schools. Indigenous youth were subjected to horrific abuse, including sexual sterilization, smallpox inoculations, near-starvation experiments, and thousands dying from maltreatment. As Rod Alexis of the Nakota Sioux Nation painfully noted, “They killed our spirit.”

“They love to kill people of color here.” — Lynne Eagle Feather.

Gabriel, brother of Paul Ernest Castaway of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe, remembers Paul as someone with a good heart who was always laughing, joking, and willing to give the jacket off his back to someone experiencing homelessness. Two days prior to Paul being killed by police in Denver, Colorado on July 12, 2015, Gabriel shared a final handshake and hug with his brother, where Paul's last words were, "I'll see you later," and Gabriel responded, "I love you brother." Deeply moved by the loss, Gabriel took part in Native Lives Matter, traveling and protesting with other families to bring solidarity to the community.

Colten Stephen Pratt was last seen leaving the Marlborough Hotel on Smith Street in downtown Winnipeg at 9:30 p.m. on November 6. Family members note that Colten was at a hotel bar and may have gone to another location with an unidentified woman who appears in a final photo he sent to his mother via cell phone that night.

This episode features an unedited conversation with Diane Brooke, cousin of Crystal Turner. Diane shares Crystal’s life before the media spotlight, her path to Moab, and how she met and married Kylen Schulte.

On April 20, 2021, Crystal Turner and Kylen Schulte were married in Arkansas. The loving couple lived a nomadic lifestyle, moving from campsite to campsite primarily around the Moab, Utah area alongside their pet rabbit. Four months later, on August 13, 2021, they were camping in the South Mesa area of the La Sal Loop Road in Grand County.

Regularly spending evenings at Woody’s Tavern on Main Street in Moab, the newlyweds had told friends about a "creepy man" snooping around their campsite. They even texted a friend saying that if anything ever happened to them or if they were murdered, authorities should look into this individual. On August 18, a concerned friend searched the Warner Lake area with a hunch and tragically made the devastating discovery.

(Paula) Pauline Del Mundo was born in the Philippines. Because she had not legally changed her name before she vanished, her passport, ID, NamUs, and Charley Project profiles list her birth name as Paulino Norberto Del Mundo Japor Jr. An avid traveler and model employee, Paula disappeared on September 15, 2019, while waiting for an airline layover at DFW International Airport en route to the Iberostar Hotel in Cozumel, Mexico.

In May 2016, Tess M.M. White went missing. Her great-aunt, Charlene Madosh, grew concerned when calls went straight to voicemail. According to the police report, Charlene last saw Tess around 7:30 PM on May 4th when she came home, grabbed clothes into a bag, and left as a white truck or SUV pulled up to pick her up. She was never heard from again.

MEMORIES & TRIBUTE:

Tess loved collecting rocks at the beach, was a fierce traditional dancer, and dreamed of becoming a veterinarian. Her grandmother, Janice Madosh-Smart, connects the song "Would You Lay With Me" by Tanya Tucker (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgXgEbKy118) to Tess.

In Part Two, Connie and I discuss the profound intergenerational trauma experienced by residential school survivors and day scholars, and how it rippled through families. Indigenous children were removed from their homes like hostages; many disappeared while enrolled, while others endured severe physical, psychological, and cultural abuse.

Unlike residential students, day scholars attended federally operated schools during the day and returned home at night. Though unrecognized for decades, they suffered many of the same grave harms—including the forced loss of language and culture.
