  "blurb": "KaShawn Nicola Roper was wanted in a 2020 shooting in Kansas City that killed one woman and wounded another. Placed on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list, she spent years out of reach, with ties scattered across half a dozen states. She is presumed innocent. In the end the search closed not with a raid but quietly, an arrest, one day after the reward had climbed to $1 million.",
  "mystery": "The file is closed now. For a long time, though, the only certainty was that she was gone.",
