Case 233: Denise Amber Lee
Added 2022-11-19 09:00:04 +0000 UTCWhen Nathan Lee arrived at his North Port, Florida home on Thursday, January 17 2008, he immediately knew something was wrong. His two young sons were home alone and his wife, 21-year-old Denise Amber Lee, was missing. Soon, 911 calls were coming in from around the city from people who had seen Denise being held against her will in the backseat of a green Chevrolet Camaro. When police traced the vehicle to a 36-year-old named Michael King, the race to save Denise was on.

What a horrible ending knowing that could have been avoided. She did everything right as well! RIP😞

The information was all there, real time. What a heartbreaking end. And her poor father to have to come to terms with the fact his own department is responsible for dropping the ball.

2022-11-23 05:35:13 +0000 UTCSo hard to believe that he risked following through with taking her life after all of the witnesses and inevitable evidence that was going to stack up….I kept hoping he would realise he was cornered and let her go 😣

2022-11-20 15:01:20 +0000 UTCHey team of Casefile! I have a recommendation for a case, Norwegian one that just now, over 20 years later took a shocking twist. Very intricate case, horrible and grufulle, but a lot to cover. It is usually referred to as the Baneheia-case (Baneheiasaken). Really scary twist of events, and the question of guilt is still quite unclear tbh. Hope you can do an episode on this case! Would love to help with any translation etc too! Such a grotesque case that is so familiar as I grew up around same area at the time. And I know several people who participated in the search for the girls and so on. Really tragic case, but so important to highlight a shady justice system...

2022-11-19 23:35:32 +0000 UTCSo heartbreaking to think her main concern was her children even in the face of danger. It’s so frightening to think she did all she could, her father, husband, and all the eye witnesses and even Harold did the right thing and tried to help and yet it wasn’t enough to save her. So tragic
