WHO IS SHE ... REALLY? - Ep. 19

Girl in the Picture. Suzanne Sevakis. The mystery of a missing person spans 40 years, taking more twists and turns than even the Escape Pod cohosts can count!  As a teenage girl in the mid-1980s, this wannabe escape artist was known as a smart girl and good friend with big dreams, but – time and time again – one person kept preventing her from reaching her full potential. In the end, he couldn’t escape the many investigators who pursued truth and justice for a woman whose true identity took decades to reveal.    TRIGGER WARNING: This episode includes graphic content about kidnapping and violence against women and children.    Bullet Points of Key Topics and Markers:    Topic #1 10:33 The first of several stories that, eventually, collide.   Topic #2 28:13 1990: 3 men near OKC find critically injured on side of road   Topic #3 45:10 2002: Investigative journalist interviews suspect in string of crimes  Topic #4 56:20 Escapism, cohost-style      Resources & Links  https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/girl-in-the-picture-netflix-suzanne-sevakis-b2116243.html     “Girl in the Picture” Netflix documentary    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/inside-the-true-crime-netflix-documentary-girl-in-the-picture/5FGD3MCIDBEIPOHHXZFJWSOVFM/     https://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/cold-case-investigation      Sign up to be a Patron today!
