Episode 65; The Claypool Hotel Murders and Survivor Johanna Orozco-Fraser

Hi there, Crime Family, welcome back, to Episode 65!

This week Bailey covers the stories of two women who were both found murdered in the Indianapolis, Indiana, now-demolished Claypool Hotel during the mid-20th century.

Maoma Ridings was a friend to Franklin Delano Roosevelt as well as a Corporal in the Women's Army Corps in 1943, and was the victim of an unsolved homicide on the 7th floor.

Dorothy Poore was an 18 year old who was on a trip to Indianapolis to find a clerical job, but was found days later stuffed into a dresser drawer on the 6th floor. That crime was supposedly 'solved.' but Bailey has her doubts about whether they caught the real perpetrator.

Beth follows with the survival story of Johanna Orozco-Fraser, a high school senior who had already had a difficult life and then was put through a crime so cruel and traumatic that it took her years to be able to look at herself in the mirror again.

But Johanna was strong and made the decision that she would choose to be content with her life, and when she found that peace, happiness found her. This case is a tough one because the man who tried to kill Johanna was the man she had once loved with all her heart.
