You help us tell these stories and provide us with new information that could one day bring closure to this case or another case.
So thank you for taking your time out of your day to listen to and share it.
The more people who listen and share, the more people we can reach with these stories and the more tips we can generate in all of our cases.
As for season four, Beth, Chris, and I will be combing our case files to select a case or maybe a few cases to bring into the limelight either later this year or in early 2027.
We will keep our dedicated listeners up to date on our upcoming season and on any updates we have on any of our active cases.
We continue to believe that this venue provides us with new and innovative ways to tell victim stories.
And we know that our listeners will provide us with new tips and information that will help solve another case.
Because we know that in all of our cold cases, somebody knows something.
Hello and welcome to Somebody Knows Something, the Elgin Police Department cold case podcast.
My name is Detective Andrew Houghton.
I'm Detective Chris Hall.
We ended our last episode by telling our listeners we had finally located some extended family for Whiteria who agreed to assist us with this case and agreed to provide the DNA that we need for Whiteria's investigation.
For this episode, Beth is joining us as we work further on the case and travel to Tennessee to collect that DNA.
But before we hit the road, let's talk a little bit about the last time Elgin Police worked on this case back in 2014 and how that connects back to Witeria's home state of Tennessee.
That's true.
So we obviously are going to consider Texas now for a few reasons.
When we filtered NamUs and searched to include Illinois and the states that border us, plus Texas and Tennessee, we discovered nearly 300 potential sets of unidentified remains that could be an option for our case.
And thanks to Beth, as Chris said, we recently learned that Whiteyrio also was living in Tennessee in 1976.
But as we read the case file, we also learned that police did some additional digging there back in 2014.
When Elgin conducted our annual review for her case in 2014, officers came across some activity related to a small estate affidavit that was filed in 1997 with her name on it.
