She Went Missing During a “Digital Detox”? Seeking Justice in the Murder of Trina Hunt

Lauren Dunne Astley was 18 years old and had her whole life ahead of her. In the fall of 2011 she was planning on attending Elon University for college, but not before spending her last summer at home in Massachusetts with her friends. But that all changed on July 3rd, 2011, when Nathaniel Fujita, her recent ex-boyfriend, strangled her to death in his garage. His motive? Their breakup. On March 7, 2013, he was found guilty and convicted of first-degree murder. Amidst this tragedy, Lauren’s parents have dedicated their lives to educating teenagers about the dangers of breakup violence and have traveled all around to promote their non-profit, The Lauren Dunne Astley Memorial Fund, which seeks to bring awareness to breakup violence, and promote education surrounding the matter.

Jennifer Dulos, a loving mother of five, was two years into a bitter divorce battle against her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Fotis Dulos, when she suddenly vanished. Though her car was quickly found a few miles from her home, Jennifer’s body has never been found. Investigators conducted an incredibly thorough, extremely detailed search and found evidence that she had been murdered in the garage of her home. The person responsible? Her husband, Fotis. Through said search efforts, investigators also concluded that Fotis’ girlfriend, Michelle Troconis, was not only privy to the murder but conspired to do it and helped him dispose of evidence afterward.

GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-fi... Email Tobin Bradley – [email protected]  Subject Line: E99 - Urgent: Assistance Required In Search For Nancy Ng  Hello Mr. Bradley, My name is ____, and I am writing to you on behalf of Nancy Ng’s entire family, who have gone months without answers regarding what happened to her on October 19, 2023, on Lake Atitlán. After kayaking out into the lake, she disappeared in an alleged drowning incident. The one and only person who witnessed Nancy’s drowning has been uncooperative, and there are now allegations that a bribe occurred to have her statement omitted from the police report. This person then left the country without aiding in search efforts and has refused to cooperate with the family and search teams. It is my understanding that you have the power to escalate her case to the appropriate authorities in Guatemala because, as it stands, little is being done to investigate her disappearance. Please help her and her family. I am asking that you please: - Request that Guatemalan authorities ask U.S. officials, such as the FBI, for assistance in this investigation. The United States has resources that would prove incredibly valuable to this investigation, as well as in the search for Nancy’s body. - Facilitate a conversation between the Ng family and someone in Guatemala who is actively working the case. Currently, their family has been ignored by the prosecutor. Please help connect them with someone with more information regarding the status of Nancy’s case. - Lastly - I am asking that you please not forget that Nancy was human. She was a sister, a daughter, a teacher, and a friend. All her loved ones want is to know what happened and to bring her home to lay her to rest. Their patience has been taken advantage of and it’s time someone stepped up to escalate the situation for them. Please consider taking action swiftly. Thank you.  Sample Tweets: I am requesting that @MinexGt please ask U.S. officials for assistance in the search for Nancy Ng. U.S. resources will be crucial and valuable for helping solve Nancy's suspicious disappearance. Please help escalate the suspicious disappearance of Nancy Ng! @MinexGt needs to request US assistance immediately to move this case forward and get the proper resources in action. I am urgently requesting that @MPguatemala respond to and cooperate with Nancy Ng's family, as they have been left in the dark regarding Nancy's suspicious disappearance. Please take action immediately, starting with working with the family. Nancy Ng's family has gone 3+ months without a response from @MPguatemala, the prosecutor's office in charge of the investigation into her suspicious disappearance. Enough is enough. Please respond to their family and take the steps necessary to keep this case moving forward. Please help escalate the case of #NancyNg in Guatemala! Cooperation between Guatemala and the U.S. is crucial to getting answers @usembassyguate What happened to #NancyNg and how is @usembassyguate helping? Please help the Ng family by escalating her case to the proper authorities! I am requesting that @usembassyguate please ask Guatemalan authorities to seek U.S. assistance in the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Ng. Their resources would be valuable to solving her suspicious disappearance.

Malachi Love-Robinson is a con artist who committed several crimes starting at the age of 18. Though he began his fraudulent schemes posing as a doctor with a PhD, he would go on to later scam innocent people and businesses out of money. Malachi has, at times, denied wrongdoing, and in exclusive interviews shared that he is not who the media makes him out to be… yet he continues to plead guilty arrest after arrest… His evasiveness when answering any question about his “training” has led many to believe he is exactly who they think he is… a scammer, a liar, and a fraud.

Niqui McCown was a 28-year-old mother living in Richmond, Indiana, with her 9-year-old daughter, Payton, and her fiancé, Bobby Webster. In July of 2001, they were 3 weeks away from their wedding, and Niqui was said to have been very excited. But on the 22nd of that month, she vanished. After going to church that morning, she took some clothes to the laundromat, and rather than wait around for them to be ready, she went to her mother’s house, who lived not too far away. When she got there, she explained that she was being harassed by two men, and so her mom advised her to get her clothes and come back over. But after Niqui left, she was never seen again. Suspicion fell on her fiancé for a while, and it also fell on Payton’s father. But the true main suspect was her coworker, Tommy Swint. During the course of the investigation, it was discovered that Tommy was responsible for the murder of a woman back in 1991. But before any arrests could be made, Tommy took his life. Many believe he also took the answers as to what happened to Niqui with him.

Kelley Stage was funny, kind, endearing, and goofy… qualities that made her loved by everyone she met, including local hockey star Thomas Clayton. After meeting in a bar, the two quickly began dating, and a year later, they were married and starting a family together. They had what many perceived to be the perfect life. That is until September 29th, 2015, when Thomas came home just after midnight from a poker game to find his wife brutally bludgeoned on their kitchen floor. He called 911, and within an hour, the place was swarming with police. Though he performed well, the officers weren’t buying his story that he wasn’t involved. So much so that that same day, he was arrested for her murder. Even though his alibi checked out, too much pointed to his involvement. All investigators had to do was figure out who did the actual killing. And he wasn’t hard to find. Michael Beard, a recently fired employee of Thomas, was brought in for questioning, and after several hours and a failed polygraph, he confessed to everything. Though he later tried to recant, a jury didn’t buy it. They didn’t buy Thomas’ pleas of innocence either. Both men were convicted of 1st and 2nd-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without parole.

A huge thank you to Erika, Tom, Alahzay, Makenzie, and Astilia for participating in this case. Their effort these last few weeks has made this episode possible, and I am so grateful for their time and energy. A note from Erika to detectives:  Dear MCSO, FBI and the Great state of Arizona.  Your dismissive attitude towards my daughter’s murder is disgusting. The unimportance of her life is obvious. Your ignorance of reality and unwillingness to tell me why my daughter is gone pisses me off. If anyone deserves to know why she is gone, it’s me. It’s been almost a year... Explain to me why you can’t give her mamma an answer as to why she is gone!!! Why can’t you tell the mamma of this beautiful woman why her baby is dead!?!? Why do her siblings, cousins, grandparents, and her incredible friends continue to wait? No reason, no comfort, no answers?? Why do we have to continue to look over our shoulders for the killer of our loved one? Why are you not sharing details? Why aren’t you reaching out to the public for answers. Why are you unable to provide answers to these questions? Are you just ignoring us? Is she that unimportant to you? It can’t be that hard. I need you to find the ANSWERS!

Myrtle Simmons-Brown was not just a loving mother, but a leader in her community. Myrtle had just turned 73 and was living in Maywood, Illinois, with her oldest son, Sergio Brown. Sergio is known for his 7 successful seasons playing in the NFL, and for reasons we don’t know, he had moved in with his mom and didn’t have much to his name. And on September 14th and 15th 2023, when neither responded to loved ones, people grew concerned. So, on September 16th, a loved one went to their house to check up on them but found nothing - no sign of forced entry nor of Myrtle and Sergio. It wasn’t until family members reported them missing to police that neighbors got involved in the search. And it was only then, late on the 16th, that Myrtle’s naked body was found wrapped in plastic in a creek bed 150 feet from her own back door. After days of looking for Sergio, he was located in Mexico where he had made several concerning posts on Instagram. He was eventually extradited back to Maywood, where he is now facing a 1st-degree murder charge and a concealment of a dead body charge.
