Silenced: The Radio Murders

By: iHeartPodcasts and Kaleidoscope
  • Summary

  • A chilling wave of murders sweeps through Little Haiti, a Miami neighborhood that is home to many Haitian exiles. The victims are radio broadcasters, using the airwaves to demand democracy at home. Little Haiti is up in arms, calling for justice for the fallen heroes, but the investigation stalls. To this day, the masterminds remain free. And rumors persist … about cocaine trafficking, CIA assets, and transnational coups. Ana Arana, who first investigated the crimes thirty years ago, teams up with Oz Woloshyn to find answers to a case that continues to haunt her.

  • Forgotten: Women of Juárez Trailer
    May 22 2020

    In the famous border city of Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, hundreds of women go missing. The ones that are found have strange symbols carved on their bodies. Some have their wrists bound with shoelaces. All are discarded like garbage. The story of Forgotten investigates what or who is responsible — a serial killer, organ traffickers, a Satanic Cult? — and pursues an investigation with law enforcement on both sides of the border, terrified witnesses, and corrupt authorities.

Please, listen

This is by far one of the best podcast I have ever heard. These women deserve justice, they deserve a voice. This podcast is giving them that.

Wonderfully Researched and Designed Podcast

Especially right now, as an American I’m aware I have a great ignorance on real life experience with border towns, on either side, and their histories, this podcast helped me to understand some things better, and while it’s so unbearably sad, there’s a lot of hope and a lot to learn from the mostly female characters — journalists, academics, activists, agents and victims involved in the femicides. So much to admire and so important to hear. I highly recommend.

Meh

Didn't need all of the amateur opinions on economic policy and armchair policy preaching. Was a great podcast otherwise.
