    Introducing: Why Can't We Talk About Amanda's Mom?
    Jan 25 2023
    In November 1993, a veteran discovers the body of a woman on a dirt road near Interstate-10 in Mobile, Alabama. She’s nude, drained of blood, and decapitated. But despite the horrific nature of the murder, it garners little sympathy in the press and detectives fail to close the case. Over the course of 8 episodes, host Sarah Cailean recounts her three-year investigation into this unsolved and perplexing murder that seems to leave more questions than answers. With the full support of the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office, she revisits the original investigation, digs up new evidence, and interviews new suspects - recording every step of the way. Cailean hopes to rectify the mistakes of the past and bring some answers to a family still struggling to make sense of what happened – and uncover just why it has been so hard to talk about.

Great Podcast - Hope there's a S2 Resolution

I enjoyed the presentation of the facts, hearing the discussions as investigators brainstormed and debated the likelihood of the theories and different suspects. I am glad someone is talking about Amanda's mom, Rene, aka Maria. Every mother, sister, daughter, wife, girlfriend deserves to be treated as a human, deserves an investigation when the worst happens, regardless of their profession or life choices. I hope there is a resolution coming soon and that Amanda gets some form of closure. RIP, Rene Bergeron.

I am looking forward to the follow-up story. I moved to the Mobile area around the time this happened although I didn't recall any of it.
