About Dear Rachelle
A young woman murdered. A crime shrouded in secrecy. A killer who walked away. Who killed Rachelle Childs? Innocent people, silenced by fear for decades, are breaking their silence. For Rachelle. For more than two decades, her family and friends have fought for answers. They believe her case is solvable. They believe her killer is still alive. For decades, they’ve suffered while police let the trail grow cold. Now Rachelle’s younger sister Kristy has teamed up with a crew of investigative experts, to re-open the case with the aim of bringing about justice. Dear Rachelle is hosted and investigated by journalist Ashlea Hansen, who teams up with retired detective and renowned cold case specialist Damian Loone.
