Transcript
- 0:01Before we start this episode, we'd like to share a trailer for the new
- 0:05podcast, Box and the Basement. Most of y'all who have listened to Gone
- 0:10Cold for a while probably remember Arlene, unsolved murder victim Leon Laureles's niece and
- 0:17best friend. Now she and Leah are setting out to tackle the overwhelming amount
- 0:23of cold cases in the United States, beginning appropriately with Leon's here's our Lene
- 0:30and Leah. There are over two hundred thousand unsolved homicides in the United States
- 0:36justice system right now, and many of those cases haven't seen the light of
- 0:41day in years, decades. In some instances, the case files and evidence
- 0:47are sitting in a box on a dusty shelf in a basement, forgotten by
- 0:51law enforcement and the media, while the families and friends left behind wait for
- 0:56answers and fight for justice. Sometimes there's nobody left to remember or to speak
- 1:02up on behalf of the victim. I'm Marlene and I'm Leah, and that
- 1:07is exactly what Box in the Basement sets out to do. To shine a
- 1:11light on those forgotten victims and to bring attention to unsolved murders and disappearances.
- 1:17We want to help families tell their stories, and we want to assist the
- 1:21families and friends of victims find the resources and support they need to continue their
- 1:26fight for justice. Join us every Wednesday for new episodes of Box in the
- 1:30Basement wherever you find your podcasts. If you'd like to hear Leon's story like

- 1:57show notes, just under the link box in the Basement, you'll find another
- 2:01link where you can easily help the cause. Thanks y'all. The Gone Cold
- 2:07podcasts may contain violent or graphics subject matter. Listener discretion is advised. When
- 2:15Ruby Roberson Hall contacted us about covering her sister Elisa Roberson's case, almost nothing
- 2:22about it could be found online, save a few anniversary stories here and there,
- 2:27a web sleuth thread and Corpus Christi Coller Times and Aransas Pass Progress newspaper
- 2:34archives. Even fewer posts about Elisa on social media could be found except a
- 2:40few here and there made by missing persons advocates and by Elisa's family friends and
- 2:46original investigator former Aransas Pass Police Lieutenant Linda Thompson, although they'd have you believe
- 2:53otherwise, those who are currently and loudly claiming to have been the only voices
- 3:00for Elisa and to have the answers needed to solve the case have been virtually
- 3:06silent until recently. It's unclear if these couple individuals, one the daughter of
- 3:13the initial investigation's primary person of interest, and the other an individual who claims
- 3:19credentials and connections they actually do not have, are simply looking for attention,
- 3:24trying to insert themselves into the case as important players, or attempting to obfuscate
- 3:30the truth for reasons that could be theorized as nefarious in more than one way.
- 3:38Whatever the case, accusations against the family of Alisa Roberson made by one
- 3:43individual in particular fail to be substantiated by evidence in any way other than the
- 3:50claimed confession of a convicted and several times over accused pedophile. The daughter of
- 3:57the original prime suspect, theorizes, again without any proof, that Elisa's mother,
- 4:02Marina accidentally killed her during an argument, and her father helped bury Elisa.
- 4:10It isn't her first theory. No matter what those who support her might
- 4:15yell from the rooftops around a couple decades ago, she couldn't remember anything about
- 4:19that day or the events surrounding it. Then a few years later, this
- 4:26person implicated Elisa's ten year old brother Tony in the murder of his sister,
- 4:30another theory with no basis in fact or evidence that is still carelessly listed on
- 4:36some otherwise above board Missing Persons organization's websites. But her latest theory that Marina
- 4:45killed Elisa presumes the missing girl never left her home that day, which goes
- 4:49against several credible eyewitness accounts, including one that has surfaced since the last episode
- 4:57of this podcast was released. This account was told by Roberson family neighbor whose
- 5:02little boys were good friends with Elisa's youngest brother, Alex. They were outside
- 5:11that day when Elisa left to meet her friend and walked with her to the
- 5:15corner of South Whitney Street and good Night Avenue. They said their boys stated
- 5:20a friend's house on the corner. This person continued, they walked back down
- 5:26South Whitney Street, and Alisa continued walking up good Night Avenue. It was
- 5:31another sighting dismissed by the loudest voice in the room, the voice that only
- 5:36screams when others begin asking questions about Elisa's disappearance. The daughter of suspect Bob
- 5:44Green, but she and others have alleged that there were more child predators in
- 5:50Ransas Pass that crossed paths with thirteen year old Elisa in nineteen eighty nine.
- 5:57The cousin of Bob's next door neighbor was one Bob's daughter told us as was
- 6:02an area church pastor. Elisa had at least some contact with a Green family
- 6:09neighbor, and plenty with the pastor. Then there was a guy in the
- 6:13neighborhood known as Grandpa, who would befriend local Hispanic women who had children.
- 6:18I'm told by them things like groceries to get close and molest their kids in
- 6:26return for his supposed generosity. The brother of a local cop, too,
- 6:32has been accused of child molestation by many folks we've spoken with. This person,
- 6:39according to a couple accounts, attempted to lure Lisa into his vehicle as
- 6:44she and her sister Ruby left the local movie theater after seeing the movie Batman.
- 6:49Since the Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson Top Build film was released nationwide just
- 6:56a little more than two weeks before Elisa went missing, the event perhaps is
- 7:00significant in terms of the investigation, but this man and the others, it
- 7:06should be noted, have no relevant charges or convictions on their records that I
- 7:12could find. These are but a few of the leads private investigator Richard Norgard
- 7:18has looked into since he came on board Elisa Roberson's case many years ago.
- 7:48In the early two thousands, Elisa's brother Tony got into some serious trouble up
- 7:54in Alaska. It really isn't necessary to go into any detail about it,
- 8:00as his case only pertains to Elisa's case, insomuch as the loss of his
- 8:05sister exacerbated a problem Tony was born with. Ruby explained Tony's difficult birth.
- 8:13He was born with the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, so he wasn't
- 8:18breathing when he was born, so they had to revive him. And when
- 8:20they revived him, he I mean, they didn't know what at the time,
- 8:24but you know, as he was grown up, they realized he had
- 8:26brain damage and so he struggled with a lot of impulse control and a lot
- 8:31of anger and a lot of you know, communication, and then top that
- 8:37with the dysfunctional childhood we grew up in. You know, he didn't stand
- 8:41a chance. He just struggled, and things just kind of progressively got worse
- 8:46for him. As we described him in part one of Alisa's story, Tony
- 8:50had a good heart, but like his old man, had a predilection for
- 8:56causing trouble here and there. The trouble was usually innocuous and often enterprising.
- 9:03My name was one word, Linda Thompson. It wasn't when the one Thompson.
- 9:07It was one word with all the kids, Linda Thompson. If they
- 9:11got in trouble, Linda Thompson's going to get you. But I made private
- 9:16deals with Tony all the time to keep him out of trouble. And when
- 9:20Marina would have trouble with him, she would come up to PlayStation with Alsa
- 9:26as her interpreter because she just wasn't comfortable with her English, and I would
- 9:31go back and I would always go over and talk to Tony and get him
- 9:35calm down or settle down, or I bribed him sometimes if you don't get
- 9:39in trouble at school for a whole week, you know, I'll give you
- 9:43a dollar. And the one time I caught him stealing newspapers from the lobby
- 9:50of the bank and walk he's smart, walk over and he was selling him
- 9:56to the people at the driving bank. And I, yeah, I got
- 10:00a call and broke his stole. And they made him go back to that
- 10:03newspaper machine and put on a few papers he had left back in and I
- 10:09made him stand there and drop every penny of that a quarter in a dime
- 10:11at a time he had two full pockets. Have changed. I'm going into
- 10:18Thompsons. Tony was not a bad kid. Tony was curious and very enterprising,
- 10:28and I mean he knew how to control herself because I paid him more
- 10:33than one dollar. Let me tell you, Tony is among the primary reasons
- 10:37both Linda and Mike Thompson of the Aransas Past Police Department got to know Marina
- 10:43and her kids as well as they did, and his trouble making as a
- 10:46child, though most of the time tame was the seed for others to concoct
- 10:52the theory that the ten year old was responsible for the death of Alisa.
- 10:58It's a theory with absolutely no corroborative details or evidence whatsoever besides the fact that
- 11:05he was a handful. That theory only gained serious attention anyway after Tony got
- 11:11in trouble as an adult. Regardless, the adult run in with the law
- 11:16was very serious and landed Tony a stiff sentence and is what ultimately led Ruby
- 11:22and Marina to private investigator Richard Norgard. Richard Norgard, a criminal defense investigator
- 11:41for the State of Alaska at the time, was assigned to work Tony Robertson's
- 11:46case in the two thousands. I was a criminal defense investigator for the State
- 11:52of Alaska at that time, and I was actively working in the defense of
- 11:58Ruby's brother and as part of my investigation and that my job was to biscuit
- 12:05do trial prep, which had to do with interviewing people best anything the attorney
- 12:09asked me to do, but mostly entailed interviewing people and collecting information on Tony's
- 12:16medical history and specifically down in Texas from when he was growing up. And
- 12:22I interviewed both Marina and Ruby and death multiple times over the course of a
- 12:30couple of years prior to two thousand and nine that I was working on the
- 12:33investigation. He was subsequently convicted and sentenced to a long period of prison and
- 12:41was sent to the state prison and Seward, Alaska. And then over time
- 12:50I continued to visit him there as they were appeals being done and so forth,
- 12:54And so I had probably spent more time talking to Tony than you know,
- 13:00that anybody else in the case, probably by far. And so I
- 13:05was able to get his insights and so forth. So because of my work
- 13:11in that and the family's familiarity with me. In two thousand and nine,
- 13:16coincidentally with the what would have been the twentieth anniversary of Elisa's disappearance, there
- 13:24was a lot of activity going on at that time, including Ruby going down
- 13:26to Texas and there was a ceremony and they planted a, you know,
- 13:31a little monument down there by the school and so forth. So surrounding all
- 13:37that going on, she asked me to become involved in the case. So
- 13:43that's how it came about. By the stage in his life, Richard's career
- 13:48had run the gamut. As a teenager, he began working for the News
- 13:52Herald in Port Clinton, Ohio. According to that newspaper, as he fulfilled
- 13:58his hoarding and photographer duties. He was even working on writing a book he
- 14:03hoped would be published someday instead of immediately pursuing a career as a novelist.
- 14:11However, Richard joined the United States Army as a young man, where his
- 14:16accomplishments certainly stuck out. While in basic training, he won a trophy for
- 14:22highest Basic rifle marksmanship. During his time in the Army, Richard was awarded
- 14:28the Meritorious Service Medal, the Defense Meritorious Service Medal, and the Army Commendation
- 14:33Medal twice. When it was all said and done, Richard Norgard had served
- 14:39twenty years in the United States Army, working as a counter intelligence officer.
- 14:46After that, he co founded a private investigation agency in Alaska before becoming a
- 14:52criminal defense investigator for the state, a career he kept for ten years.
- 14:58Writing detective mystery novel fills some of Richard's time after retirement, But from what
- 15:03I've seen, his primary passion, which he does pro bono, is finding
- 15:09out what happened to blanc Elisa Roberson On Sunday, August sixth, nineteen eighty
- 15:15nine. First thing I needed to do with Christmas become familiar with the case,
- 15:20and I was already quite a bit familiar with it just from speaking with
- 15:24family members, because that incident was such a big part of the whole family
- 15:31dynamic, because her disappearance in eighty nine set in motion, you know,
- 15:37a whole number of things, you know, involving that family, including their
- 15:41relocating. I you know, just familiarized myself with the case. I went
- 15:46online and read articles, and then when I felt I was up to speed,
- 15:52I started interviewing people. You know, it would be given a name,
- 15:56for instance, and so I would try to locate that person interviewing,
- 16:00and then it just sort of just expanded from there. One person I mentioned
- 16:03another name, and so I would interview them. So, because of Elisa's
- 16:08mother, Marina's insistence for decades that her abusive boyfriend, Ralph Gonzalez had at
- 16:15least some hand in her daughter's disappearance, if he was not entirely responsible,
- 16:22Richard found out what he could about him. When I interviewed the family,
- 16:26I learned that Marine had been in a relationship with Ralph Gonzalez over a period
- 16:32of years, although by the time of the disappearance she had broken with him
- 16:37and they were no longer together. She was aware that he'd been involved in
- 16:41criminal activity, specifically drug activity in the Arenes Past area, and she was
- 16:47in fear of him. There had been some violence two family members by this
- 16:52individual during the time that she was with him, and there was a threat
- 16:56made that he made against Marina, did threaten her and told her that he
- 17:02would do something to her where she would always remember him, She'll never forget
- 17:06him. They had a child together, and there was fear that Ralph was
- 17:11gonna, you know, he hung around ther and his path, so he'd
- 17:15be hanging around and there was fear that he was going to maybe take their
- 17:21son and you know, take him away to Mexico and then she wouldn't see
- 17:26him againt. So she had that fear. That fear was not necessarily thought
- 17:30to be against Elisa or one of the other children, but specifically having to
- 17:33do with the son that they had together. That's kind of what I've been
- 17:38aware of at the time that I started this, and so obviously he would
- 17:44have been or should have been considered a prime suspect, and in fact,
- 17:48she Marina was not silent about telling the cops that that's who she thought was
- 17:53responsible. There was a search going on. All these things were going on,
- 18:00it was hectic, and you know, and so she was making demands
- 18:03and you know, the police were probably overwhelmed and so forth, and so
- 18:08so that that's sort of the backdrop of, you know, what was going
- 18:12on with Ralph. But he definitely bobbed immediately to the surface as being a
- 18:18prime list fan. Although there's little doubt Aransas Pass Police Chief Melvin shed and
- 18:26Detective Sergeant Richard Rodriguez, who knew Gonzales well, located and visited the man
- 18:32in a Mexico prison. Marina also remembered some details that didn't necessarily jibe with
- 18:38his being incarcerated in Monterey since May of nineteen eighty nine. After Elisa vanished,
- 18:45she received two letters from Gonzales from the Mexico prison, Marina said,
- 18:51both of which the stamps were canceled by Postmark in San Antonio, Texas.
- 18:57In the letters, Gonzales his concerns about Elisa's disappearance. This was to understate
- 19:04it out of character for this abusive monster who only ever expressed hate and violence
- 19:12and never sympathy or affection. These letters, by all indications, were insincere,
- 19:19suggesting at the very least Gonzales reveled and Marina's pain, and at worst,
- 19:26perhaps a taunting hint that he was involved. The prison alibi thing is
- 19:32is I've always considered to be a red hearing. Here's what I mean by
- 19:36that, Ralph was he was a drug dealer. He was well known around
- 19:41there. He was certainly known as the police department. And I'm not going
- 19:45to go into that any further in this conversation, but this idea that well,
- 19:51he had an alibi because he was in prison. First of all,
- 19:55one of the things that the interviews revealed was that, as I mentioned,
- 20:00that he had abused the children, so they were definitely afraid of him.
- 20:07Alisa Roberson never would have gotten into a vehicle or gone with him anywhere willingly.
- 20:14So if he wanted to do something, number one, he wouldn't have
- 20:19done it himself for the reason that he would know that she would never go
- 20:23with him. And number two, he's the kind of guy who would make
- 20:27sure that he was nowhere near it. He'd want to have an alibi,
- 20:33and what better alibi than having a record that you were in prison at the
- 20:37time. Right in July, about a month before Elisa disappeared, Marina is
- 20:42sure she saw Ralph Gonzales at the HTB grocery store in Aransas Pass. Whatever
- 20:49the case, whether Gonzales had indeed been in prison in Mexico the entire time
- 20:56or had been able to bribe his way in and out, he needn't have
- 21:00done the initial dirty work himself. That's where perhaps a red car comes in.
- 21:07For some time, Richard has held much information close to the chest,
- 21:12but on December eighth, twenty twenty three, he decided to make a public
- 21:18plea to the residence of Aransas Pass via social media, and in doing so
- 21:23revealed a lead he's been interested in. Somewhere around or between eighth and ninth
- 21:30Streets on Goodnight Avenue. The Bloodhound Clementine lost Elisa sent the day following her
- 21:37disappearance, multiple witnesses, Richard says, saw Elisa Roberson get into the passenger
- 21:45side of a red Tudor compact car with someone she knew and trusted. It
- 21:51is believed the driver may or may not have been aware that they were involved
- 21:56in an abduction, Richard said, And maybe we're in instructed to bring her
- 22:00to a house nearby or the waterfront. Perhaps the driver of this red car
- 22:07Richard's public plea continued to take part in the crime, or did so for
- 22:11the promise of drugs in return. It might also have been several hours before
- 22:18the driver realized they'd taken part in a crime. As far as whether or
- 22:23not this possible scenario has anything to do with Ralph Gonzalez is up for interpretation,
- 22:30at least in a public sense. But it might be important to note
- 22:34that people told me that he was a shrimper, so he had access to
- 22:38boats. You know, I know just from research that one way that they
- 22:44traffick drugs was with fishing boats and shrimp boats, you know, in the
- 22:48Gulf, from ports in Mexico to here. And I also know that Alisa
- 22:52would sneak away with friends and they would go down to the court and hang
- 22:56out down there. I know Ralph lived at one time, I'm lived over
- 23:00by the port and had friends down there. And so in terms of having
- 23:06the means mode of an opportunity, how hard would it have been for him
- 23:11if they could get her in the car, And by the way, maybe
- 23:14a friend of hers picked her up and took her somewhere, believing that it
- 23:18was innocent. You know, maybe one of her friends delivered her somewhere,
- 23:23and then when she turned up missing, they thought, oh my god,
- 23:27I was involved in this, and now if I come forward, I'm in
- 23:32big trouble. They're going to get me. That person would want pends and
- 23:36now want to talk. That person could have been asked to take her somewhere
- 23:41for a party or whatever, for whatever ostensible reason, and I'm taking her
- 23:45down to the port. She could have been snatched up and put on a
- 23:48boat. She'd be in Mexico that night. Considering theories such as these,
- 23:55human trafficking remains a viable, albeit less likely possibility. It cannot be taken
- 24:02off the table. Private investigator Richard Norgard hasn't written off the possibility that Bob
- 24:08Green was responsible for whatever happened to Alisa by any means, and in fact
- 24:15feels initial investigator's theory indeed has legs, but he's keeping an open mind to
- 24:21all possibilities in which evidence, corroborating details, or I witness accounts can be
- 24:27found. Recently, due to Richard's investigative work, former Ransis Pass lieutenant and
- 24:36initial investigator Linda Thompson's push for resolution, and Ruby's efforts toward widespread and intensified
- 24:44publicity. Prior to the thirty fourth anniversary of Elisa's disappearance back in August of
- 24:49twenty twenty three, activity on the case has been making waves, though the
- 24:56previous two episodes have demonstrated the destructive m impact of those waves, which is
- 25:02undoubtedly the loudest. Positive developments, particularly a renewed interest and folks coming forward
- 25:10with new information, far outweigh the negative. The quest for justice for Elisa
- 25:17is moving forward undeterred. When Alisa disappeared, it affected each at every one
- 25:34of the Roberson's in a different way. Her father, Eugene, moved to
- 25:40Alaska after notifying the authorities that he'd found an abandoned skiff bumping up against the
- 25:48fishing boat he was working on. Alaska State troopers took Eugene into custody.
- 25:53He had an outstanding warrant in Texas, they told him for a pearl violation
- 25:59stemming from an aggravated assault and aggravated rape conviction. The arrest was upsetting,
- 26:06but the rape charge was maddening. Eugene Roberson had never even been suspected of
- 26:11a sexual crime, and because of Elisa's disappearance, which almost certainly is the
- 26:18result of foul play. The charge was particularly hard for the man to swallow,
- 26:23re traumatizing. In fact, Eugene vehemently denied he'd ever been charged with
- 26:30such a crime, and instead his release from prison in July nineteen eighty six
- 26:37and did any and all probation or parole responsibilities. The whole thing was a
- 26:42mistake. After quickly agreeing to be extradited to Texas, authorities there rechecked their
- 26:48records and found out he was right. Eugene had not violated parole and the
- 26:56aggravated rape had been mistakenly entered into the cysts them. It should have read
- 27:00aggravated escape because he'd attempted to break out while serving time, a crime that
- 27:07only added to his stay in prison. Eugene told reporters he traveled back to
- 27:12Kodiak, Alaska, where he was initially arrested after his release from a jail
- 27:18house in Anchorage, to make sure everyone there knew the rape charge had been
- 27:23a mistake. The problem, Eugene added, is in Texas. That's a
- 27:30feeling not exclusive to Eugene, who passed away in December of nineteen ninety eight,
- 27:36haunted by Elisa's disappearance until the end. When Alisa went missing, Marina
- 27:42had three other children, and though she'd painfully lost a piece of her heart,
- 27:48she had no choice but to continue to move forward and hide the anguish
- 27:52as best she could. Oh at Lisa, she was said, Oh,
- 28:00she was a beautiful girl. They were they were sweet, loving. She
- 28:08have a big hard and she was always trying to protect her little sibling,
- 28:15Ruby Tony Alt She was the oldest sister. And she was smart, smart,
- 28:26but a trusty, very trusty, you know. At the same time
- 28:33she was innocense. She was a big girl, but she was a very
- 28:37very good girl. She was not wild or anything like that. You know.
- 28:45She was sweet, you know, fearful. Ralph Gonzalez would take another
- 28:52of her children. She moved to the kids far up north. Today,
- 28:56Marina just wants Alisa back home, whatever her fate, back with her.
- 29:03Twelve year old Ruby was certainly sad, but forced to step into the role
- 29:08of the oldest sibling to protect her. This also carried with it an expectation
- 29:15of stoicism to a point. An old newspaper photo featuring Ruby and five year
- 29:22old Alex sitting with Elisa's father, Eugene, portrays perhaps the emotion the two
- 29:29children and ten year old Tony had most in common. Besides sadness anger,
- 29:34Alisa had pulled herself and her siblings through some bad times. Our childhood was
- 29:41us four of us just kind of taking care of each other in some weird
- 29:45way. I mean, my mom was there for us and took care of
- 29:48us and loved us. But she loved us and did what she the best
- 29:52she could with how bad the circumstances were. If that makes any sense,
- 29:56then sometimes when all the best stuff is happening in some weird way, you
- 30:03have all this bad stuff happening in the background, but you had each other
- 30:07and that's what made it, you know, made us able to we were
- 30:11able to cope with that and deal with that, is we had each other.
- 30:17And that's what I always remembered. We had each other, and we
- 30:18loved each other, and we had some good times with us four siblings.
- 30:23And Alisa was the oldest one, just you know, at the helm,
- 30:29making sure that we were doing what we were supposed to be doing and behaving
- 30:32and all that all that other stuff. Like her mother, not a day
- 30:38goes by that. Ruby doesn't think of Alisa, reliving the day, the
- 30:44subsequent searches, and the decades that have passed, wondering if she could have
- 30:48done anything differently. The bond between the two sisters was strong, and since
- 30:55Alisa has been gone, a part of Ruby has been missing as well.
- 31:00Tony's behavioral and mental health issues and the abuse he suffered at the hands of
- 31:04Ralph Gonzales only worsened as the result of his sister's disappearance, eventually landing him
- 31:11in prison in two thousand two and many attempts at suicide. While incarcerated.
- 31:18In August of twenty seventeen, Tony unfortunately completed the act. It made August
- 31:26unbearable now the anniversary month of two family tragedies, because of the abuse his
- 31:33father, Ralph Gonzales, wrought on his mother and siblings, and the possibility
- 31:37that Gonzales is responsible for Elisa's disappearance. Alex lives with unbearable guilt to this
- 31:45day. He worries that some fault flows within his blood. Nothing could be
- 31:52farther from the truth, of course, but unbearable tragedies framed inside of uncertainty
- 31:57often leave family mane of victims prone to unreasonable feelings that they are somehow to
- 32:04blame or could have done something differently to change the outcome, no matter how
- 32:09many years or decades have passed. But the only person who carries blame is
- 32:15the monster who took Elisa. As Blanca Elisa Roberson's case progresses, and there
- 32:23are a group of folks determined to make sure that's exactly what happens. We'll
- 32:29provide updates here on Gone Cold in the meantime. If you have any information
- 32:36about the disappearance of Blanca Alisa Roberson, please email Missing Elisa nineteen eighty nine
