107. Sounds Like Anybody Coulda Dunnit - The Dumler-Wilson Murders - With Special Guest Detective Kellyanne Best
About this Episode
October 1969. Nighttime in a quiet, leafy upscale suburban neighborhood in one of Cincinnati's toniest conclaves. A young couple with two young children, and the wife's mother, all presumably asleep inside. Except when the kids wake up the next morning and go to the neighbors to say they can't rouse mom and dad, what the neighbors find is simply horrific: The stabbed and shot bodies of Martin Dumler, age 29, his wife Patricia, age 27 and Patricia's 50 year-old mother, Mary Wilson. Looks like the young couple may have been tortured - but impossible to be sure. Looks like Mary just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time - but that too can't be definitively confirmed. And for the past fifty years, the Dumler-Wilson murders have confounded authorities and remained one of the Queen City's most notorious unsolved mysteries. On this episode, Melissa is joined by Cincinnati P.D. Cold Case Unit Detective Kellyanne Best, the tenacious, current posessor of the Dumler-Wilson file, significant portions of which she has provided to Melissa and which provokes some fascinating discussion. SOMEONE, somewhere knows something about this case - is that someone YOU? If you think you might be able to help, call Cincinnati CrimeStoppers at (513) 352-3040 or write to Detective Best directly at kellyanne.best@cincinnati-oh.gov - or you can always leave a voicemail message for Melissa on the TIP-STER HOTLINE at (832) TIP-STER (832-847-7837) or send Melissa an email at jttipsters@gmail.com

I do not have the answer. I feel like those much smarter than me do not either. But botched executions should not happen.

One thing I do know is that the listeners to this podcast are some of the most brilliant and compassionate souls. I am open to hearing your thoughts, pro or con.

Can one woman who is determined to find the Lost King actually achieve this?!?! You bet she can. Phillipa Langley did have some help. Some. But she is a force of nature and she alone set in motion a group, a village of researchers, anthropologists, genetic genealogists, experts in many fields to dig up a parking lot and lo and behold, 500 hundred years later, Richard WAS there. The film "The Lost King," is her story. AND Richard's story.
