Amber Barker
In Oklahoma City, on December 18th, 1997, 10-year-old Amber Renee Barker called her mom to let her know she was about to start the half-mile bike ride home from a friend’s house, but she never made it home, and her case remains unsolved.
 
Amber Renee Barker was 10 years old when she went missing from Oklahoma City on December 18, 1997. She is a white female. At the time of her disappearance, she was 5 feet tall, weighed 80 pounds, and had long brown hair. Her ears are pierced, and she was last seen wearing a beige long-sleeve sweater with a brown collar, black jeans, and a pair of No Excuses brand sneakers.
 
Anyone with any information is asked to call the Oklahoma City Police Department Missing Persons Unit at 405-297-1000 or Crime Stoppers at 405-235-7300. A reward is available.

Aubrey Dameron
This episode originally aired on August 10, 2023.
 
At around 3:30 am on March 9, 2019, 25-year-old Aubrey Dameron left her mother’s house near Grove, Oklahoma. She told her family that she was going to meet someone. Aubrey hasn’t been seen since.
 
This is a case full of confusing leads. Allegations that Aubrey
was kidnapped and being held for ransom, an alleged murder confession, and
evidence that, in my opinion, needs another look.
 
For years, Aubrey’s family has searched high and low, but no sign
of her has been found. They are desperate for answers.
 
If you listen to my other podcast, Disappearances, you know that
I’ve discussed Aubrey’s case before. I did a joint episode discussing Aubrey
and the disappearance of Anthonette Cayedito with a heavy focus on the epidemic
of Missing and Murdered Indigenous people. It is a very informative episode
that is very close to my heart. So, if you’re looking for more information on
this epidemic, I absolutely recommend listening to that.
 
Now we worked on that episode back in 2021, and I haven’t been
able to stop thinking about these cases, and since then, there have been some
updates in Aubrey’s case. So, I thought I would try to bring Aubrey back into
the spotlight and draw even more attention to her case with a full-length
episode on just Aubrey.
 
At the time of her disappearance, Aubrey, a 5 foot 9, 130-pound
Cherokee woman with brown hair and eyes, was wearing a black leather jacket,
black top, black skirt, black knitted hose, and black boots. She has a
triquetra symbol tattoo on her back and another tattoo reading
"Shorty" (her nickname) on her upper left arm.
 
Anyone with information about Aubrey’s case is asked to call the
FBI at (918) 664-3300 or the Cherokee Nation Marshal Service at (918) 207-3800.

The Sodder Children
26 December 2024
The Sodder Children
At around 1:00 am on December 25, 1945, Jennie Sodder woke up to smoke pouring into her bedroom. She woke up her husband, George, and they started evacuating the house of their nine children. By the time the fire took over the Sodder residence, only Jennie, George, and four of their children made it outside safely.

George and two of his sons frantically tried to get into the house to save the remaining children, but they couldn’t. When George went to fill up a bucket with water to start extinguishing the flames, the water was frozen, when he went to grab their ladder to get his children from the top story, the ladder was missing; when he went to drive his trucks to the second story window, neither would start despite having worked just the day before. And when they tried to call the fire department for help, no one responded for hours.

The only thing the family could do was watch as their home burned to the ground. Hours later, after the smoldering ashes were put out, a group of people began searching for the children’s remains, but nothing was found. Not a single bone was found in the ashes. The fire was quickly ruled an accident, and investigators told the family the children’s bodies had burned up completely in the fire, leaving nothing of them behind, not even their bones.

But between the mishaps, while trying to put out the fire, threats made against the family before the fire, and the strange behavior of authorities throughout the investigation, Jennie and George Sodder refused to believe five of their children were killed in the home. They were convinced their children didn’t die in the fire, and they spent the rest of their lives trying to prove it.
