There are certain places in this world that we like to believe are sacred, that they are the most

safe places for our bodies and for our heart. Asked what those places are, we're likely to answer

many of us the same, places like the home, schools, and churches. However, with stories of abuse

by parents and other family members with stories of abuse and violence in schools, and with stories of abuse by parents and other family members, with stories of abuse and

violence in schools, and with stories of abuse within various churches, we know that none of those

places are truly safe, not for everyone. And our case this week takes us into one of those places,

a sacred and holy place, Vatican City, to explore its

only missing person's case. Where do the theories lead? Are there secrets that still remain?

And will this deserving family ever find peace? This is a case of Emanuela or Lambie. Welcome to coffee and cases where we like our coffee hot and our cases cold. My name is

Allison Williams. And my name is Maggie Damran. We will be telling stories each week in the hopes that someone out there with any information concerning the cases will take those tips to law enforcement, so justice and closure can be brought to these families.

With each case, we encourage you to continue in the conversation on our Facebook page, Coffee and Cases Podcast, because, as we all know, conversation helps to keep the missing person in the public consciousness,

helping keep their memories alive. So sit back, sip your coffee, and listen to what's brewing

this week. The only missing person? The only. And Maggie, I have got to warn you ahead of time

that this case, which obviously is an international one since it said in Vatican City, has so many twists and turns that even doing the research, I found myself all turned around at times.

But because this family has never given up hope, I want to support them in the best way that I know how, and that is by

telling her story and hopes that people continue to pressure for answers. So I'll do my best to tell

the case in the most streamlined way I can. I read many media accounts in my preparation, but I will tell you that a lot of the information

I gained about this case actually came from the family and journalist interviews that were all

contained in the Netflix docu-series called Vatican Girl.

Oh, now I need to watch that after.

You definitely do, yes, and I will urge all of our listeners to follow up by watching that documentary.

And as we get going, I'll use an example to show you why some of my information came from the docu series versus some of the articles.
