When When Leona Kinsey went missing, separating fact from rumor proved difficult.

But within a few years, one person of interest rose to the top of the list but suspicion is not

evidence and the real answers to what happened and why are still just out of

reach. I'm Charlie and welcome to Crime Lines.

Welcome to Crime Lines and this day's episode of the 12 days of crime lines where I do daily

episodes as a thank you to my listeners for their support year round.

I do need to give some extra thank yous this week, one to Light The Way,

because they connected me with the other person I need to thank, which is Carolinda Ford.

Light The Way is of Victims Advocacy Group

that works with a number of families of missing persons,

and you've probably heard of some of them,

like Oakley Carlson and Mora Murray.

But they also are working on other cases

like Teresa Corley and Victoria Raymond,

and of course, this one,

the disappearance of Leona Kinsey.

And the family member of Leona's

that they work with is Carolyn to forward her daughter.

And so I was able to do an interview with Carolyn.

Thanks to Light the Way connecting us.

And I want to thank both of them for their help.

Leona was an enrolled member of the Puyallup tribe whose name for themselves is Boyallapops.
