Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast The Murder of Shannon Melendi
On March 26, 1994, 19-year-old Shannon Melendi disappeared during her lunch break while working as a softball scorekeeper, never to be seen again. Initially treated as a runaway, it wasn’t until political pressure mounted that authorities took the case seriously, but by then, crucial evidence had vanished.
