This is the last "regular" episode of the season, but not the last we'll be releasing on the Millbrook case. In the following weeks, several special episodes will be coming up, and we are in plans for a mini-season and second full-length season focused on other Georgia cases, so stay subscribed! In Episode 5: Closure, we catch you up on all of the various threads of action--our experience with NCMEC, with the Aiken Doe, with the leads we developed, and where we stand today. Next week, look out for a special longform interview with the twins' sister, Shanta Sturgis. We're currently collecting questions for a second QnA episode; those can be submitted on Facebook, via our gmail at falllinepodcast@gmail.com, or via our voicemail number, (404) 590-2975\. Produced and mastered by Encompass Podcast Studio. Music by RJR.

Please check out the short discussion we had with former federal prosecutor Francey Hakes, co-host of Best Case Worst Case with Jim Clemente, former FBI profiler and writer and producer for Criminal Minds. Francey and John’s new show gives us a fascinating perspective rarely explored in true-crime podcasts: interviews with law enforcement professionals and first responders who discuss their best and worst cases. Many of the cases discussed on the show are local to Georgia, and will be of special interest to Fall Line listeners. Tune in!

In Episode 4: Damages, we reflect on the different kinds of trauma caused the loss of a child—or in this case, children—especially when the family has no sense of closure. More details regarding the Aiken Doe are covered, as is one host’s meeting with Augusta DA Natalie Paine and the outcomes of that meeting. Mixed and mastered by Tom Young of Funk Bungalow.

In this episode, the concept of “hearsay”—and all of the rumors, gossip, and misinformation that have appeared in this case—are addressed. We go through the twins’ file, their removal from the NCMEC database, experiences at school, allegations of juvenile records and foster placement, and even current problems developing open lines of communication with law enforcement.

The Fall Line Podcast investigates the March 18, 1990 disappearance of Augusta, GA twins Dannette and Jeannette Millbrooks. The twins, who were fifteen at the time, were treated without cause as runaways and their case was closed less than week after their seventeenth birthday. Their family worked tirelessly to get the case reopened, and finally managed to attract the notice of a newly elected sheriff in 2013\. Now, the podcast works to amplify the voices of the twins' family and to uncover facts, explore and dispell rumors, and develop theories in their case. Listen as we work to find Dannette and Jeannette Millbrook.
