• FROM THE VAULT: Ellen Greenberg

  We first brought you this case in July 2020, when Maggie covered it solo. We’re re-issuing it now because there have been developments—and Maggie and I will be sitting down together to discuss the updates in a new companion episode. On January 26, 2011, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 27-year-old Ellen Greenberg left school early ahead of a snowstorm and headed home to the Venice Lofts. A locked door. A phone that goes unanswered. Plans for the future still sitting on the counter. What happened in that quiet stretch of late afternoon that turned routine into nightmare?

• Amanda Antoni

  It was supposed to be a quiet weekend. On October 24, 2015, in the Castleridge neighborhood of Calgary, Alberta, 31-year-old Amanda Antoni stayed home alone to recover from a migraine while her husband was hundreds of miles away. The two spoke on the phone that evening, sharing the kind of small-talk conversation every couple has—until a strange sound broke through the line. Moments later, the call went dead. When Amanda’s husband returned home two days later, the house was silent… except for the frantic barking of their dog and the eerie evidence that something terrible had happened in the basement. What followed was one of the most perplexing and heartbreaking investigations Calgary police had ever faced. The evidence told two stories—one of a violent attack, the other of an inexplicable accident. Was Amanda the victim of foul play? A tragic fall? Or could something else entirely have happened in those final moments? Nearly a decade later, Amanda’s family is still searching for the truth—and so are we. If you have any information about the mysterious death of Amanda Antoni, please contact the Calgary Police Service at 403-266-1234 or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers at https://calgarycrimestoppers.org/how-to-submit-a-tip/ If you would like to join Coffee and Cases Patreon to support the show and listen to bonus content, please go to ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/coffeeandcases Learn more about your ad choices.

• E282: Shannon Collins Part 2

  When 52-year-old Shannon Lee Collins vanished from his home in Pottsville, Arkansas, on March 12, 2021, there were no tire tracks leading away, no note left behind—just silence. A phone that suddenly went dark. A man who never missed a call simply stopped answering. At first, his loved ones were told he’d left on his own. But as the months passed, the stories about where he’d gone began to shift—and the truth grew harder to ignore. Why hadn’t anyone in his home reported him missing? Why were there so many conflicting explanations about the last time anyone saw him? And what secrets were buried behind those small-town walls? In this two-part series, we follow Shannon’s brother, Blake, and his sister, Holly, as they piece together a puzzle built on contradictions. If you know anything about the disappearance of Shannon Lee Collins, please contact the Pope County Sheriff’s Office at 479-968-2558.

• E280: Amy Bechtel

  On July 24, 1997, 24-year-old Amy Wroe Bechtel set out for what should have been an ordinary afternoon near Lander, Wyoming. A rising athlete with Olympic dreams, Amy was in the middle of mapping the course for a 10K race she was organizing. By the end of the day, her white Toyota station wagon sat abandoned, her to-do list unfinished, and Amy herself was nowhere to be found. Despite a massive search effort that involved hundreds of people, cadaver dogs, and aircraft, no trace of Amy was ever recovered.
