What is going on true crime fans? I'm your host Teeth and I'm your host Daphne and you're listening to going west.

Hello everybody big thank you to Aubrey and Marie, Veronica, Haley, Beth, and Kristen.

Kristen who actually listens with her lash clients over at Olivia Vale in Washington.

Thank you all so much for sending this case over.

It is based in Seattle and in this story today everything unravels right in front of

our eyes and it only happened last year in

2023 so this is a new one. Yeah and the trial date is actually set for this

June but there is so much information that's already been released and we've got it all coming up today.

So without further ado.

All right guys, this is episode 405 of going west, so let's get into it. Oh, you know, you're going to be more.

Oh, you're all.

Oh, you're going to. In March of 2023, a 58-year-old woman headed to a Seattle Mariners game with a man she met at Costco two weeks prior.

But after enjoying their date, even snapping a photo in the stands together,

she went missing.

When the following day brought strange text messages sent from her phone and a report that her son had been abducted from his bedroom,

investigators started to piece together a disturbing puzzle. This is the story of Leticia Martinez-Cousmin. as Cosman. Letizia Martinez was born on March 26, 1965 in Ensignetus, California, where she grew up alongside

sisters Laura and Lupe and a brother named Ricardo. Her siblings remember her as

even-tempered, kind, and upbeat. Her sister actually recalled quote, her motto was

to embrace life, to take it as it comes, regardless of its

ups and downs.

Her best friend Annie said, quote, she's just very fun-loving, sweet, and kind,

the most generous person you could ever meet.
