About this listen

For years, some law enforcement agencies have replaced the faces of traditional playing card decks with images of missing and murdered people and distributed those cards in prisons hoping inmates would come forward with information needed to crack these cold cases wide open. Now, audiochuck is dealing you in. Each week, we will be working with investigators and family members to bring you the details of some of the coldest cases from around the country in hopes that someone listening can finally bring these victims the justice they deserve.audiochuck True Crime

  • Carmen “CJ” DeLuca (Wild Card, Connecticut)
    Jun 18 2025

    Our card this week is Carmen "CJ" DeLuca, the Wild Card from Connecticut.

    When a man stopped to get gas in the middle of the night in 1985, he had no idea he was walking into the scene of a murder. The 23-year-old gas station attendant, Carmen “CJ” DeLuca, had been shot to death for seemingly no reason. But with no witnesses and no clear motive, police had no idea who killed him. He was a good guy with no known enemies, engaged to the love of his life, and planning a wedding that would never happen. It wasn’t until another customer walked into another gas station to get his morning coffee…and found another attendant shot that investigators were able to hone in on some suspects. Because their second victim was alive, he got a clear look at the man who shot him. But 40 years later, investigators haven’t been able to identify the shooter. They think they’re close, but time is running out as evidence, suspects, and memories are lost to time. They need someone to come forward and confirm their suspicions to get justice for CJ, his fiancé, and the life they never got to have together.

    • If you have any information on the death of Carmen “CJ” DeLuca, please contact the Connecticut Cold Case Unit at 1-866-623-8058 or email cold.case@ct.gov.

  • The Leighton Avenue Killings (9, 10, Jack, and Queen of Hearts, New York)
    Jun 11 2025

    Our cards this week are Michael Adams, Lachelle Powell, Michael Royal, and Jennifer Leasure, the 9, 10, Jack, and Queen of Hearts from New York.

    In the dead of winter, a fire consumed a home in Rochester, New York — but what firefighters discovered inside wasn’t an accident. Four bodies, bound, shot, and left in a scene so brutal it stunned even experienced detectives. Nearly a decade later, with no arrests and few answers, the question still haunts everyone left behind: Who could commit such a massacre – and why?

    The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is offering a $15,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever killed Michael Adams, Lachelle “Peanut” Powell, Michael Royal, and Jennifer Leasure.

    If you have any information, please contact Rochester PD’s major crimes unit at 585-428-7157 Rochester PD Contact or email them at MajorCrimes@CityOfRochester.gov. You can also call Crime Stoppers at 585-423-9300 or submit a tip online.

  • Sharon Glover (6 of Spades, Louisiana)
    Jun 4 2025

    Our card this week is Sharon Glover, the 6 of Spades from Louisiana.

    Early on November 14, 1993, just two weeks before Thanksgiving, Sharon Glover was found viciously stabbed to death on a rural backroad in northwest Louisiana. Rumors led Sharon’s family to believe the killer was someone close to them. But detectives are now releasing new information in this case for the first time, and they believe there’s been a different prime suspect lurking in the background of this investigation for decades.

    • If you have any information on the murder of Sharon Glover, Det. Jackson urges you to reach out to him directly at (318) 681-0705. You can also submit a tip anonymously through Crimestoppers.
