Boston — The Case Unsolved podcast was among 11 first-place winners by The Day in the editorial and advertising awards presented this weekend by the New England Newspaper & Press Association.

The podcast examined the case of Desiree Michaud, a prostitute murdered in Groton in 1984. The podcast was reported by Karen Florin, narrated by Carlos Virgen and produced by Peter Huoppi and Virgen. Timothy Cotter was the executive producer and Izaskun Larrañeta the associate producer. Subsequent cases were reported on by Lindsay Boyle and Erica Moser.

"This is far and away the best, most compelling podcast submitted for consideration," the judge said. "It's true storytelling, drawing upon archival reporting and new interviews to tell the story of an unsolved murder in Connecticut. With high production values, strong sound design and writing, Case Unsolved is everything newspaper podcasts strive to be."
