Jamie and Lindsey welcome their new sponsor: Clinicians of Mecklenburg who provide premium mental health and substance abuse services.
They also talk about their new office space in North Raleigh.
The Sleuths discuss a recent case where a real estate agent in Minneapolis, MN was abducted and later murdered while showing a house. This was a tragic case. Private Investigators can be and often are hired by real estate agents and banks to be present to documented witnesses. Lindsey discussed a case where a family had been asked to vacate their estate and the bank had hired them to be present during the time they picked up their belongings.
Another topic on today's show is the new panic button added to the Tinder dating app. This feature would allow users to call authorities when and if they find themselves in a dangerous situation.
Episode 10 of ABC's Stumptown, Reality Checks don't Bounce, was analyzed by the Sleuths. Mike Epps guest stars in this episode as a celebrity judge whose brother has allegedly been kidnapped and held for ransom. The case also involved a cat that would create a special kind of coffee bean by eating the bean and passing it. This reminded the Sleuths of a case where they were hired to do surveillance on a cat.
In this case, the cat was involved in a bad foster situation and when the cat's location became unknown the client hired the private investigators to stakeout the cat's last known location. It was during this case that they met an actual Pet Detective (yes, that's a real thing and not just a movie).
