MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF: Shanquella Robinson

A luxury vacation to Mexico with college friends ended in tragedy when Shanquella Robinson died of what her friends said was alcohol poisoning. But Shanquella’s family always believed there was more to the story, especially when a video surfaced of her being brutally beaten just hours before she died. That video and a pair of autopsies coming to two different conclusions has shrouded Shanquella’s death in mystery. Years later, there are still so many questions. What exactly killed Shanquella and who, if anyone, is responsible?  If you have any information about the death of Shanquella Robinson, you can call the Charlotte FBI at 704-672-6100 , or email us at tips@audiochuck.com .   Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

Now, two families are searching for answers — and they need your help.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF: Amanda Wienckowski

When 20-year-old Amanda Wienckowski vanished one night in Buffalo, her mom, Leslie, refused to sit back and wait for answers. She begged police to listen and even parked outside the house where Amanda was last seen — for weeks — hoping her daughter would walk out the front door. What followed would test every ounce of a mother’s strength: a case full of contradictions, silence from the system, and a fight that would stretch on for more than a decade. This is the story of a mother who wouldn’t let the world forget her daughter — no matter how long it takes for justice.  You can track the status of Assembly Bill 8986 at this link: https://legiscan.com/NY/bill/A08986/2025 You can also comment on that site or find a local legislator to champion Leslie’s request for a 20-year extension to Article 78.

INFAMOUS: A Conversation with JonBenét Ramsey's Father

In November 2024, Ashley Flowers sat down with John Ramsey at his home for a one-on-one conversation about the murder of his daughter, JonBenét Ramsey. In the year since that interview, John has met with the Boulder Police Department and appeared in multiple media outlets, pushing for additional testing in his daughter’s case. Ashley has also continued meeting with people connected to the case, and hopes to one day soon have an update to share. Following Boulder Police’s most recent update on Dec. 12, 2025, it appears more testing is planned and efforts continue to solve the nearly 30-year mystery of who killed JonBenét. John's conversation with Ashley may give us a clue into what items they're looking at testing.   Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

SCANDAL: Police Explorer Programs

Law enforcement Explorer programs were created to mentor teens interested in policing. But decades of weak oversight created an environment where officers could manipulate that trust. Some exploited their roles, using their authority to groom, abuse, and silence the very teens they were entrusted to guide.

MURDERED: Sandra Birchmore

In 2021, 23-year-old Sandra Birchmore was found dead in her apartment. And what Massachusetts investigators quickly called a suicide slowly revealed itself to be something much more sinister. Because out of the woodwork came friends, family, and co-workers with stories that Sandra had told them about her life. Stories of grooming, sexual abuse, and years of misconduct at the hands of several Stoughton Police officers… which began when she was barely a teenager.  Three officers later resigned from the department. With a 2026 federal trial pending, the whole state has been left to wonder whether Sandra’s death was truly a suicide – as state police continue to maintain – or the end result of something much darker.     🚨The Crime Junkie Holiday Merch Collection is here! 🚨 Shop the exclusive Holiday Collection -- limited-edition merch designed to bring a little CJ cheer to your season.
