The Disappearance of Relisha Rudd: How an 8-Year-Old Vanished from a D.C. Shelter
In March 2014, 8-year-old Relisha Rudd vanished while living with her family at a homeless shelter in Washington, D.C. What began as a routine school attendance concern quickly unraveled into a devastating missing-child investigation involving conflicting family accounts, institutional failures, and a shelter employee who was not who he claimed to be.
In this episode, we walk through the confirmed timeline of Relisha’s disappearance — from the last verified sightings, to surveillance footage, police findings, and the disturbing discoveries that followed. We separate what is documented and verified from what remains disputed, and examine how Relisha slipped through the cracks of multiple systems meant to protect her.
Relisha Rudd has never been found.
If you have any information, please review her official missing persons poster and contact authorities.

Pt 2: The Vienna Woods Killer
In part two of The Vienna Woods Killer, we follow how investigators finally zeroed in on Jack Unterweger—a celebrated writer and “rehabilitated” ex-con who was secretly hunting sex workers across Austria and Los Angeles. From a retired detective’s hunch and a terrified survivor in Graz to suspicious license plates, DNA, and matching ligature knots, this episode breaks down how police connected the Vienna Woods murders, the L.A. cases, and Jack’s carefully crafted public persona.
We’ll dive into Jack’s background, his time in prison, the literary fame that helped free him, and the trial that exposed him as a serial killer hiding in plain sight.
