Hi crime junkies, I'm your host Ashley Flowers and I'm Brett and happy Pride month everybody

Although we're gonna be celebrating all year long. We don't want anyone forgetting just how important this month is.

Absolutely. This is such an amazing time to celebrate the LGBTQ plus communities and to share the love

with everyone around you.

Yeah, so you can go out and share the love crime junkies.

Be sure to head to our show notes for this episode because we're going to be linking out to a ton

of incredible organizations that support the LGBTQ plus community that could use your

love and support as well, whether you're looking to

donate time, money, even your attention, it's all equally important, not just this month,

but all year round.

So please just take a minute to go check them out and speaking of

attention we need your attention for the cases that we have for you today

because they are all unsolved and they all need as many eyes and ears as possible.

So the first one I have for you is about a young woman and her daughter

connected by more than just blood. When both

of their separate stories start near a bus stop at the end of their driveway, you

can't help but wonder if whoever made them vanish is a little bit closer to home. Oh, On October 4th, 1988, the Berkeley County Sheriff's Office near Mount Holly, South Carolina is contacted by a man

named Steve Malinowski who's calling to report the oldest of his three kids his

11-year-old stepdaughter Annette missing. Steve explains that Annette didn't come home from school that day, so he said he went to

look for her, starting with where she waits for the bus down at the end of their driveway,

which is a long driveway because they live on this 6,000 acre plantation.

I guess Steve's the caretaker there and so they get to live in this house on the property.
