Episode description as stored
In the fall of 1976, a woman vanished from her home in rural Vermont sometime between a cup of morning coffee and the end of an ordinary workday. What followed was years of suspicion, rumor, and silence until a witness with questionable credibility stepped forward.
Laurie Gonyo’s case has an ending but not the kind of clean resolution people imagine when they hear the word solved. This is a story about what happens when justice feels incomplete, when a sentence seems too small for the violence at the center of it, and when the killer in one case leaves a trail of suspicion wherever he goes.
This episode discusses other unsolved cases with a shared suspect. If you have any information about the murder of Denise Dansby or Connie Sedam, please email the Volusia County Cold Case unit at ColdCaseUnitTips@volusiasheriff.gov . To submit an anonymous tip, call Crime Stoppers at 888-277-TIPS .
