"He actually shot her twice. He didn't need the second shot. But he did it anyway."

November 12th, 2013 was supposed to be Chelsea Small's day off. The 30-year-old single mother of two worked at an Advance America check cashing store in Taylor, Michigan. She was attending Wayne County Community College full-time in the hopes of becoming a physical therapist, but had taken the full-time job after she separated from her longtime boyfriend the year prior. And in November of 2013, she swapped shifts so that she could have her son's 5th birthday off.

That Tuesday, Chelsea was working alone. At around 10:00 AM she called her mother, venting about some things that had gotten dumped on her at work. Then, at around 12:04 PM, she buzzed in a customer through the security entrance. Surveillance footage shows that within seconds, he'd pull out a .45-caliber handgun equipped with a suppressor...

For those drawn to the shadows where stories lack a final page, there's Unresolved: A True Crime & Mystery Podcast. Hosted by Micheal Whelan, this podcast operates on a simple, haunting premise: some questions demand to be asked, even if the answers remain just out of reach. Since 2015, each episode is a deep, respectful exploration into the voids left by history and crime. You'll hear meticulously researched narratives on cold cases that have grown dusty, the enigmatic patterns of unidentified perpetrators, and disappearances that left only silence in their wake. This isn't about easy conclusions; it's about the weight of the unknown. The podcast gives voice to the details that complicate simple theories and honors the lingering questions that haunt families and investigators alike. By focusing on mysteries that refuse to be neatly solved, Unresolved creates a space for thoughtful reflection on the nature of justice, memory, and the stories we can't afford to forget. It's for listeners who find compelling narrative not in resolution, but in the pursuit itself, in following every thread no matter how faint or where it leads. Tune in for a sobering, immersive journey into the cases that defy closure.
