Rerelease: UNSOLVED MURDER: Barbara Jean McNeil (Hoopa)
Ask anyone in Hoopa, California about Hoopa Tribal member Barbara Jean McNeil and they'll tell you the same thing: She was the sweetest woman. So, what exactly happened on the night she was beaten to death? What drove a person to murder her in such a violent way? And is the person responsible still walking around Hoopa to this day?

Rerelease: EMMILEE RISLING (MISSING)
On this week’s rereleased bonus episode, we're covering the case of missing woman, Emmilee Risling. In October 2021, Hoopa Tribe member, Emmilee Risling, vanished from an isolated part of the Yurok Reservation in Northern California. But her story is not just about being a missing person, it’s about an entire system that failed to protect her when she needed help. What you should also know is that Emmilee is the cousin of our Floodlights producer, Jack Kohler. When we describe this podcast as a personal project, we mean it. Jack, like many Native Americans, knows at least one missing or murdered relative. This crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous people is real – and too often it’s up to Native people to fight the good fight alone. Do you have a story you'd like to see covered on Floodlights?
