The Deck

By: audiochuck
  • Summary

  • For years, some law enforcement agencies have replaced the faces of traditional playing card decks with images of missing and murdered people and distributed those cards in prisons hoping inmates would come forward with information needed to crack these cold cases wide open. Now, audiochuck is dealing you in. Each week, we will be working with investigators and family members to bring you the details of some of the coldest cases from around the country in hopes that someone listening can finally bring these victims the justice they deserve.

  • Dashaun “Dae Dae” Lawson (King of Hearts, Connecticut)
    Mar 12 2025

    Our card this week is Dashaun “Dae Dae” Lawson, the King of Hearts from Connecticut.

    Dashaun “Dae Dae” Lawson was 26-years-old when he was fatally shot outside his mother’s apartment in the Hockanum Park apartment complex in East Hartford, Connecticut. Dae Dae was killed just a few days before Christmas in 2017 and left behind three children, all under the age of five. His family and the detectives working his case are confident that someone in their neighborhood must have seen or heard something that could help investigators figure out who killed Dae Dae, they just need them to finally come forward.

    • If you or anyone you know has information about Dashaun Lawon’s murder, please call Detective Paul Sulzicki directly at 860- 291-7544 or contact the East Hartford Police Department at 860-528-4401.

  • Susan Poupart (7 of Spades, Wisconsin)
    Feb 26 2025

    Our card this week is Susan "Susie" Poupart, the 7 of Spades from Wisconsin.

    When 29-year-old Susie went to a house party on her reservation, surrounded by friends and so close to home, she should’ve been safe. But when the mother of two left the party in a car with some younger men, things took a turn for the worse.

    Susie never made it home, and six months later, her remains were found in a nearby forest. The men Susie was last seen with became immediate suspects, but to this day, there just isn’t enough evidence to charge them with her murder… Or is there?

    • If you know anything about the 1990 murder of Susan Poupart in Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin, please speak up. You can call the Vilas County Sheriff’s Department at 715-479-4441 or the Lac du Flambeau Tribal Police Department at 715-588-7717. Or, if you’d prefer to remain anonymous, you can call the Vilas County Sheriff’s anonymous tip line at 1-800-472-7290.

    We found Susie's case back in 2021 while we set out to cover the case of Rhys Pocan, a 35-year-old Indigenous woman who was murdered in Wisconsin in the ‘80s. But while we were in the field, we uncovered a disturbing pattern of murders with similarities to Rhys’ that were just too blatant to ignore, including Susie's. So, we spent the next three years working with local and federal law enforcement to try and get to the bottom of it.

  • Tessie Temores (10 of Diamonds, Mississippi)
    Feb 19 2025

    Our card this week is Tessie Temores, the 10 if Diamonds from Mississippi.

    When 37-year-old Tessie went more than a month without contacting any of her six children, her mom had a sinking feeling that something was wrong. Her loved ones never thought over five years would go by without hearing from her. But here they are ... still in the same stagnant spot. Still wondering what really happened... still waiting for Tessie to come home.

    • If you know anything about the disappearance of Tessie Temores around December 27th, 2019, in Jackson County, Mississippi, we urge you to contact Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers. You can remain anonymous by calling them at (877) 787-5898. If you don’t mind speaking to Lt. Shane Bozeman directly, you can call his office at the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department at (228) 875-6823 or email him at Shane_Bozeman@co.jackson.ms.us.

Good, but Could be Better

I have high expectations of Ashley because I believe she is a trailblazer. Her stories, narration, and research are excellent. She tends to have trivial things that really ruin the podcast (not just this one. It's part of the trademark, I suppose! 😂)
The ads and their placement really ticks me off, especially because we don't have the option to subscribe and pay for ad-free content. Also, the intro at the beginning of each episode is unnecessary, and half a minute of theme music is just obnoxiously unnecessary! It's not even good music! Of the hundreds of podcasts I've listened to, only ONE had a stunning intro/theme song. It's the Culpable podcast, and the theme song is by the Dirt Poor Robins. You can find it on YouTube. If yours is not of that caliber, half a minute is far, far too long.

Su

Ashley I can't thank you enough for covering Su's murder. I grew up in Saugus so I remember this vividly and I also happen to know Marlene personally. every single thing the detective said about her is 100% the truth. Marlene is one of the nicest sweetest strongest women I have ever met in my life. I hope that this gets off someday because Marlene really does deserve answers as well as Su deserves Justice.

Extraordinary

I stumbled across "The Deck" after I hade binged every episode of "Crime Junkie" and was in desperate need of my true crime fix. This has it all! The narrater keeps your attention and has a way of telling these extreamly intimate grusome events while being completly respectful of the victums memory and surviving family and friends privacy/feelings. Someone needs to tell these stories and she has been anointed to be that person.
