    True Crime Researcher: Haley Gray
    May 29 2025
    This week on the Murder Diaries, we're thrilled to have a very special guest who's been behind the scenes of some truly incredible podcasts, including some of the episodes of the Murder Diaries. Joining us today is our friend, Haley Gray, a dedicated researcher, storyteller, and advocate whose work has shaped many of the shows you know and love. Haley has contributed to the research of countless podcasts digging deep into the facts, uncovering hidden details, and ensuring these stories are told with the utmost accuracy and care. Haley is also one of the board members of The Bridegan Foundation, which brought the Bexley Box project to life. This non-profit was born as a result of the senseless murder of Jared Bridegan, a case we've covered here on the podcast, and it aims to provide support and resources to families impacted by violent crime. Haley is also involved with "Light the Way" an organization dedicated to guiding families through the overwhelming process of getting exposure for unresolved cases. Haley's work goes far beyond research though. She's committed to justice, advocacy, and helping others navigate difficult paths.

    MD Rewind: Pepita Redhair
    May 22 2025
    Original Air Date: 10/5/22 According to ⁠indianlaw.org⁠ “…More than 1 in 2 Native American women have experienced sexual violence. Though available data is limited, the number of missing and murdered American Indian and Alaska Native women and the lack of a diligent and adequate federal response is extremely alarming to indigenous women, tribal governments, and communities. On some reservations, indigenous women are murdered at more than ten times the national average. Statistics define the scale of the problem, but do nothing to convey the experience of the epidemic.” Pepita Redhair is one of this Missing and murdered indigenous women. She went missing at the height of the global SARS CoV2 pandemic in March of 2020 for Albuquerque NM, where she lived with her boyfriend. This is her story.
