Michael Frazier was known as a quiet, caring man who loved fishing at the Priest Rapids Dam and spending time with his brothers. He wasn't a gang member, and he wasn't looking for trouble. But at 2:00 AM on a September morning in 2018, trouble found him in the form of a red SUV on West Chestnut Avenue. Today on The D-Lo Show, we look at a case that shocked the Yakima community—a murder with no clear motive, no known ties to crime, and a shooter who is still out there.

In this episode of The D-Lo Show, we look at two lives stolen decades apart. 19-year-old Deprecia Ware was heading to a Halloween party in 2014 when she was gunned down in an alley near A.C. Davis High School. Nineteen years earlier, 21-year-old Patricia Allen was found murdered in her apartment on Tieton Drive. Both cases have gone cold, but Yakima’s new cold case unit is using 2024 technology and social media to hunt for the truth. One witness, one memory, or one DNA sample is all it takes to change everything.

It happened in broad daylight in a busy pizzeria parking lot. 17-year-old Landynn Lewis was behind the wheel of his Jeep when gunfire erupted, claiming his life and leaving a community in shock. While an arrest has been made and a 10mm Glock recovered, the legal battle over what really happened at Tony’s Big Cheese Pizza is just beginning. Today on The D-Lo Show, we break down the June 2024 shooting, the surveillance footage that tells a conflicting story, and the thin line between self-defense and murder.

On March 1, 2024, 15-year-old Unikque Ramirez was walking with friends near McGuinness Park in Yakima when a confrontation between rival groups turned deadly. Unikque was caught in the crossfire and killed, but nearly a year later, her case remains unsolved. Police know there were witnesses that night—so why hasn't anyone come forward? In this episode, we share Unikque’s story, hear her mother’s heartbreaking plea for answers, and call on the community to break the silence. Case #24Y006581.

62-year-old Jerene Matta was found bound and murdered inside her burning home in 2013. The strange part? Jerene had a high-tech surveillance system recording 24/7—but the killers took the hard drives with them. Join us as we walk through the frozen crime scene, analyze the mysterious female DNA found under the victim's fingernails, and look at the new leads hoping to crack this decade-old cold case.
