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.
Aaron "Peanut" Lamont Smalls (Ace of Spades, Virginia)
Our card this week is Aaron Lamont "Peanut" Smalls, the Ace of Spades from Virginia.
Aaron Lamont Smalls, also known as Peanut, was only 25 years old when his body was found in York County, Virginia, in 2001. In the search for his killer, investigators uncovered several key pieces of evidence and received a mountain of tips. But despite their efforts, the case slowly turned cold.
Now, 20 years later, investigators and Peanut’s family still have hope that the case will one day be solved. So if you have any information about his murder, please call the York-Poquoson Sheriff’s Office at 757-890-4999.
