Episode 30 - Darwyn Hope

Darwyn Hope went missing on July 12th, 2016 from Boise, Idaho. Darwyn was 92 years old at the time, and was suffering from depression and suicidal thoughts brought on by a painful medical condition. He had scheduled a surgery to fix the condition, but when it was unexpectedly cancelled on July 11th, Darwyn became despondent. The night before he went missing, his son Dale went visit him after Mike, his brother, asked him to visit their dad and try to lift his spirits, and keep him focused on getting better. Dale spent some time with Darwyn, who spoke of his suicidal thoughts. But Dale left feeling convinced that his father would carry on, and that everything would be okay. But the next day, Darwyn and his car, a silver Pontiac Bonneville, were nowhere to be found. Mike arrived at Darwyn's house around 2:30 that day to check on him, and found him missing. Darwyn had left his hearing aids, which he needed to communicate with others, his cane, which he used to walk with his condition, and cash - around 300-400 dollars, fanned out on top of his washer. Police were called shortly after, and Darwyn has been missing ever since. In early 2017, investigators turned their focus on the brothers, and began to accuse them of having something to do with Darwyn's disappearance. In the episode, we speak with Dale Hope, his wife Lonnie, Mike Hope, and Detective Monte Iverson with Boise PD to uncover all the theories for where Darwyn could be and where he could have gone that day.
