  • Chapter 131: In the Shadow of the Sun-The Disappearance of Myron Traylor

    Chapter 131: In the Shadow of the Sun-The Disappearance of Myron Traylor
    Feb 11 2026
    On a blisteringly hot day in Phoenix, Arizona, 13-year-old Myron Traylor set out with his mother to do laundry. He stopped for a drink as his mother continued on, promising to catch up with her, but he never did. What would follow would be a decades-long mystery, plagued by rumors, as investigators searched for the missing boy. With no evidence, only theories to base a motive on, and a witness who may know more than what they're saying, this is the story of a boy who was here one moment and gone the next.

    If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Myron Traylor, please contact:
    The Phoenix Police Department at 602-495-5394 or
    The Missing and Unidentified Persons Unit at 602-534-2121

  • Chapter 130: A Failure of Justice-The Murder of D’Lisa Kelley

    Chapter 130: A Failure of Justice-The Murder of D’Lisa Kelley
    Feb 4 2026
    The 2014 unsolved murder of D’Lisa Kelley has raised serious questions about investigative decisions and accountability.In this episode, I explore the timeline of her case and the concerns surrounding the law enforcement response. The investigation draws additional scrutiny due to the involvement of a Dallas police sergeant who was later connected to the controversial 2016 death of Tony Timpa, a man who died while restrained by officers during a call for help. The overlap between these cases raises difficult but necessary questions about oversight, responsibility, and how repeated controversies can impact public trust and justice outcomes.If you have any information about the murder of D’Lisa Kelley, you can call the North Texas Crime Commission at 877-373-8477 or visit their website to submit a tip at www.ntcc.crimestoppersweb.comConnect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.comFeaturing a promo for Tragedy with a View:Hosted by Kayla, Tragedy with a View is an outdoor lover’s podcast for those who love true tales of tragic loss and unbelievable survival involving the wilderness, wildlife and weather.
