Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of True Crime with Kendall Ray. Thank you so much for joining me today. And if you're new to this show, welcome. I'm so happy to have you here. So you guys, today we are jumping into a case that I think you will all agree. in fact, I know you will all agree, should absolutely

have a conclusion by now. It's been over a decade at this point without any justice, without any

let's go ahead and get into Shelley's disappearance. And before I start, this is one of those cases

where I have to tell you that everyone I speak about today is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, which probably tells you the direction that this is going to be going and makes it incredibly frustrating.

So just buckle in for that.

And, you know, it's just so hard with Shelly because we're talking about someone who

really only wanted to make the world a better place, was trying to make a difference, and while
