Hi, Crime Junkies. This episode is a bonus and being released outside of our normal schedule

because I had a really unique opportunity that I felt was really important to get out the info ASAP

rather than wait until a Monday. I had the opportunity to meet with Peyton, the daughter of

Nicki McCowne who went missing from Richmond, Indiana back in 2001. Yeah, we actually did our very

first episode ever on Nicki's case back in December. Right, and I would recommend for anyone who

hasn't heard that or if you can't remember the details of Nicki's case and you need a refresher,

go back and listen to episode one again before you jump into this one. This interview won't be a

rehashing of the case or any of the details rather it's Nicki's daughter giving us her own take on

some of the suspects, talking about her life and how it's been since her mom went missing and

where the search for Nicki stands now. So with that warning, if you need to go back and listen to

episode one, do that now. We'll be here waiting for you when you're done and if you do remember the

mom went missing but she's recently taken over a lot of the media stuff on her family's behalf

and it was incredible to be able to just sit down with her and ask someone all of the questions

that we had at the end of our first episode. Thank God, I know I hate this and some of our listeners

hate it do when there's no resolution and we just have to speculate. Same, same. So in the episode,

there were a couple things that you had only read in one source and couldn't confirm anywhere else.

Did you happen to ask her about any of those things? I did. Yeah, it was the stuff we talked about at

the very end of the episode and specifically I got to ask her about that article that said that

she had a relationship with Tommy and Peyton was able to confirm for me that her aunt was definitely
