About This Episode
What is this episode about?
The episode "Sooner or Later" from Small Town Dicks covers the disappearance of Latricia Fipps, who went missing in 2002, and the years-long effort to find out what happened to her. The case eventually reaches Detective Jason, known for his appearances on The First 48, who takes on the cold missing person investigation determined to get answers for her family.
The investigation stretches across multiple states before Oklahoma prosecutors move forward with one of the state's first "no-body" murder cases, building a prosecution without ever recovering Latricia's remains. For the detective involved, the case becomes less about simply closing a file and more about finally giving a long-waiting family the closure they had been denied for years.
Officer Jason White, featured in this episode, is a 28-year veteran of the Tulsa Police Department with experience spanning uniform patrol, the Street Crimes Unit, and undercover narcotics work. He spent over 16 years in the Homicide Unit, a decade as a Crisis Negotiator, and 18 years on the Critical Incident Response Team. His record includes the Medal of Valor in 2011 and two Citations of Recognition from the State of Oklahoma, alongside law enforcement degrees from Oklahoma City University and Oklahoma State University.
