  • 133: MURDER: The Fisher Family
    Apr 20 2026

    On April 10, 2001, an explosion tore through a Scottsdale, Arizona home, sending flames into the air and shaking the surrounding neighborhood.

    Inside, investigators discovered a devastating scene. 38-year-old Mary Fisher and her two children, Brittney and Bobby, had been killed in their own beds, and the evidence showed they were murdered before the fire ever began.

    The scene had been carefully staged, with accelerants, a disconnected gas line, and ignition devices used in an attempt to destroy everything inside. But one person was missing - Mary’s husband, and the children’s father, Robert Fisher.

    More than 25 years later, Robert has never been found, and investigators are still working to find him.

    If you have any information in this case, or you think you’ve seen Robert, you should call the Phoenix FBI Field Office at (623) 466-1999 or go to tips.fbi.gov. A $100,000 reward is being offered.

  • 132: MURDER: Oakey "Al" Kite Jr.
    Apr 13 2026

    On May 24, 2004, co-workers of 53 year old Oakey Albert Kite Jr., who went by Al, drove to his house to check on him after he failed to show up to work - something he had never done before.

    Inside his Aurora, Colorado townhome, officers discovered a horrific scene. Al had been bound, tortured for hours, and killed in his own basement.

    The killer cleaned up, removed key evidence, and disappeared - leaving behind only a small amount of DNA and a trail that pointed to a man who wasn’t who he claimed to be.

    More than 20 years later, Al’s murder remains unsolved, and detectives are still working to identify the person responsible.

    Anyone with information in Al’s case is asked to call the Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867 or your local FBI office. There is a $2,000 reward for information.

    Apr 6 2026

    On the evening of June 7, 1997, 26-year-old Lori Bova had dinner with her husband and sister at the Red Lobster in Lakewood, New York.

    Around 12 hours later, her husband reported her missing, claiming she left their apartment in the middle of the night to go for a walk and smoke a cigarette.

    She was never seen or heard from again.

    Nearly 30 years later, Lori’s disappearance remains unsolved, and her family is still searching for answers.

    Anyone with information regarding Lori’s disappearance is asked to call the Lakewood Police at (716) 763-9563.
