(Introduction to show begins)

TODD MATTHEWS (Missing Pieces Host):I'm Todd Matthews. This is Missing Pieces. Tonight we have Sofia Santana. Welcome, Sofia.

SOFIA SANTANA (Guest): Hi Todd. Thanks for having me.

TODD: You're a professional at this, I think.

SOFIA: Getting there.

TODD: Sofia is with the South Florida Sun-Sentinel and she's a crime reporter, and what else do you do? How long have you been there?

SOFIA: I started at the Sun-Sentinel about a year and a half ago.

TODD: uh huh

SOFIA: Before that, I covered crime at the Miami Herald and The Palm Beach Post, which are 2 neighboring papers.

TODD: I think I've dealt you at both papers actually.

SOFIA: Actually, I think so, it's been a long time; it's more than 5 years that I've been doing this, writing about crime.

TODD: Wow. So I get to turn the tables on you tonight. Usually you're doing the interview of me, now I get to interview you.

SOFIA: Yeah, should be fun, hopefully.

TODD: Well, we recently did an article, well you did an article, I tried to help you out with it, and we actually did a facial reconstruction, and it said, "Artist's drawing may help ID woman who died in 1984" and she was pulled from a canal. Can you tell me a little more about that lady?
