"Someone very specific out there holds the key to solving them, and these two women deserve justice." — Ashley Flowers
"I can't help but think of when Naja got that tattoo. She said all of her sisters gave her so much crap because they're like, who in the world gets their own name tattooed on their foot? It was kind of this running joke with them. But now so many years later, it was that tattoo that told Naja's family where she was." — Ashley Flowers (recounting Jalisa's statement)
"She matters. Her life mattered. She did a little bit of everything and excelled at what she did. Softball, basketball, volleyball, track, and field and cheerleading. Angelina Barlow was a natural athlete with an amazing ability. She was murdered. Her life was cut short because of two cowards. There's a special place waiting for you both. Don't think for one minute you're going to get away with what you did." — Ashley Flowers (reciting a post from Angie Barlow's mother)
This episode delves into two local Indianapolis cases: the disappearance of Naja Farrell and Angie Barlow. Naja Farrell vanished after starting a new job, with her car later found abandoned and her foot discovered in a body of water, leaving many questions about the timeline of events and potential foul play. The investigation faced jurisdictional challenges and delays, exacerbating the family's distress.
Similarly, Angie Barlow, a 19-year-old, disappeared after agreeing to a private dance arranged through a mysterious text. Her car was later found heavily damaged, and her remains were discovered buried in a backyard. The primary suspects, Raven and Baron, a married couple known to Angie, have not fully cooperated with law enforcement, leaving the case technically unsolved despite significant circumstantial evidence pointing to their involvement.
Both cases highlight the difficulties faced by law enforcement in solving complex investigations, the emotional burden on victims' families, and the persistent hope for justice. The podcast urges listeners to contribute any information they might have through Crime Stoppers, emphasizing the importance of community involvement in bringing closure to these cases.
