Speaker 4 (01:04):
Number ten. Genie Heschel Schwartz. Genie Hessel Schwartz was a
thirty seven year old social worker from Arlington, Massachusetts, who
dedicated much of her life to helping others. In July
nineteen ninety five, Shin her boyfriend Mike Monahan decided to
take a well earned break, which saw them heading to
the Yosemite National Park. Unfortunately, this trip would quickly turn

(01:26):
into a living nightmare for Mike and Janie's family, and
while her body was zero nine on July ninth, nineteen
ninety five, hopped into their car and headed to the
ocean unsolved. Driving down highways and turning through intersections and
rugged roads finally led them to Glacier Point, which is
close to Summit meadow. With the sun shining and plenty

(01:49):
of nature to explore, Mike and Janie went their separate ways,
walking off in different directions to take a look at
whatever they wanted. This arrangement suited the couple, and they
had agreed to meet back at their car once they
were finished. The walks were only meant to be short,
with Mike picking up his binoculars while Jenny set off
in a separate direction. Around fifteen minutes had passed and

(02:10):
Mike decided it was time to get back into their
car to carry on their journey. Was he neared the car,
he saw that Jenny wasn't there. He waited at the car,
thinking that Jenny would appear at any moment from her
short walk, but as minutes turned into hours, there was
no sign of Jenny, and Mike knew that something was amiss, panicked,
but not yet wanting to alert authorities, Mike searched the

(02:33):
area himself, pulling in the help of other hikers and
asking those in the area if they had seen his girlfriend. Unfortunately,
no one had, and two hours later Mike approached the
Yosemite Park rangers and alerted them of Jenny's disappearance. This
report was taken seriously, and within hours of the report
being made, helicopters had descended from the skies and sniffer

(02:53):
dogs and their handlers were carefully combing through the park.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Mike watched on.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
His search crews and volunteers look for his gal friend.
By all accounts, the two had shared a happy relationship
and had lived in Arlington for several years. Jenny also
had a good relationship with her roommate Vicki Fourtino. Her
disappearance came as a massive shock to Mike, and the
next clue in Jenny's case would only further traumatize him.
As mentioned, sniffer dogs were brought in to help track

(03:20):
Jenny's sent and these dogs hit on Jenny's sent almost
immediately and circled back around to the road where her
car had been parked. The dog handlers had a bizarre
reaction to this discovery. Instead of theorizing that perhaps her
scent was not strong enough or that other factors were
at play, they jumped straight to the idea of foul play. Moreover,

(03:40):
they began to point the finger at Mike in the
initial hours of the investigation, even though there was no
solid evidence whatsoever. To prove or disprove this theory, while
the dog handlers jumped immediately to the conclusion of murder
in something that we'll never know, but this idea that
Mike or another person possibly was somehow involved in Jenny's
disappearance as persisted to this day, especially with social media sites,

(04:02):
internet forums and other places where armchair web slues like
to congregate with the idea, in instance from some that
foul play was involved in Jenny's disappearance. The park rangers
wasted no time in calling the FBI to join the investigation.
While park rangers and FBI agents were processing the details,
teams on the ground and in the air continued to

(04:22):
look for Jenny, and in fact this search turned into
the largest search in Yosemite's history. Search and rescue teams,
tracker dogs, volunteers, park rangers, police, FBI, and even paratroop
jumpers were all brought in on the search, and despite
hundreds of pairs of eyes surveying the land, no sign
of Jenny was found in the park. Mike was thoroughly

(04:44):
interviewed by the FBI, as were Genies, known associates, and friends.
The FBI was quickly able to rule out Mike after
he passed the polygraph test. As we know, however, though
polygraph tests are not an exact science nor an accurate
measure of someone's guilt, and are not even admissible and
so courts across the world for various reasons. So for
two weeks, the FBI and other agencies scoured the area

(05:06):
in which Genie was last seen, and all they found
were two footprints that were believed.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
To have been made by Jeanie's boots.

Speaker 4 (05:12):
One footprint was near the car and the other, interestingly,
was on the trail of Bridalveil to Yosemite Valley, which
is a very popular and well traveled trail. So if
Jenny had headed down this popular trail, then what happened
to her. At the two week mark, the search was
officially called off as the FBI and other agencies failed
to find any other evidence that could lead them in

(05:34):
the right direction. Genie's friends and family were dismayed when
the search was called off, but her roommate Vicki, was
determined to keep the search effort alive for her friend.
In a brave move, Vicky started her own unofficial search,
calling in the help of her friend Marine McConnell, and
the two set about searching for resources and centers that
could help them. They settled on the tracking school run

(05:56):
by Tom Brown Junior, and after conversations over the fone,
Tom turned the case over to a student of his
in California.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Who agreed to help Vicky.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
Marine Tom returned to the area that had once been
a buzz with FBI activity and decided to take a
different path. In an article for wildwood tracking dot Com,
they described the route and methodology that the trackers used
to find Jenny.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
The article states the.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Student called a fellow tracker student who lived near to Yosemite.
The student checked out the place where the young woman
had disappeared. He found no signs of Jenny, but he
did notice that the air consisted of stands of aspen trees.

Speaker 3 (06:34):
It occurred to him that when the wind.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Blew through the leaves, there was something noise closely resembled
that of a car driving on a paved road. Unfortunately,
if one were to search for a road by walking
toward the noise, one would be walking away from the
true road. The tracker students also studied maps of the
area and determined that Jenny would have likely walked somewhere
to the right as writing hand dominance apparently plays a

(06:57):
larger role in our decision making when walking. Despite detailed graphs, maps,
and plans being written up and debated, no sign of
Jenny was found.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
The Tracking School and.

Speaker 4 (07:07):
Those associated agreed that Jenny perhaps went into shock when
she noticed she was lost, which would have thrown all
rational thoughts out the window. Unofficial searches for Jenny continued
with Vicky and Marine. Ever, grateful to the efforts of
the Tracking School and those involved, trackers continued to scour
through different maps and plans of the area, hoping that
something would jump out of the page at them, and

(07:29):
something did.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Using data and.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
Techniques learned at the school, they were able to pinpoint
a rough and rugged area in the park and even
gave investigators the coordinates. However, investigators were not interested in
the least with what these tracking students had to say
and quickly dismissed their ideas. Then, on September third, nineteen
ninety five, two months after she vanished, Jenny's remains were

(07:54):
found by two fishermen in a small body of water
there in which Jenny was eventually found as three quarters
of a mile above Bridalveil Falls, at around three miles
from where Jenny was last seen. The fisherman who found
Genny later told investigators the area is accessible to anyone
other than rock and mountain climbers. It's really rugged, so

(08:14):
this begs the question how did Ginny end up there
and what had happened to her? Due to the advanced
level of decomposition, Genny was identified via dental records, and unfortunately,
Corner was never able to determine the cause of death.
Although many believes she may have drowned, It would later
transpire that the area the students had pinpointed was indeed

(08:35):
the area in which Genny was found.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
But now that she had been found.

Speaker 4 (08:41):
The discovery of her remains left investigators with even more questions.
Investigators don't believe that Genny was carried to the area,
but they are unable to provide any other theories as
to what may have happened to her. Perhaps Genny went
into shock and tried to cross onto a trail in
that rugged area, or did something more sinister happen and
to were For almost twenty seven years now, Jenny's cases

(09:04):
remained unsolved, and it's high time that her friends and
family get to answers and justice they deserve. Do you
have any information about Jenny or her disappearance? You asked
to contact the FBI's San Francisco Field Office at four
one five, five five three seven to four zero zero,

(09:25):
number nine. Carol Turner thirty two year old Carol Turner
was a postgraduate student at the University of New Mexico
and loved nothing more than exploring the great outdoors. When
she wasn't studying hard for her degree, Carol would often
wander into national parks and open areas to get a
look at the plants and wildlife around her. Unfortunately, the
trip she made to the Orgon Pipe Cactus National Monument

(09:48):
in January of nineteen seventy one would be her last,
and ever since then, her disappearance has remained a mystery.
On January thirty first, nineteen seventy one, Carol drove to
the Oregon Pipe Cactus National Monument in Arizona. Carol had
a keen interest in plants and flowers, and the monument
was the perfect place for Carol, as it is home
to many species of wild plants and is the only

(10:09):
place in the US where the organ pipe cacti grow.
As February crept in, Carol was still in the park,
and the last confirmed sighting of her came on February second,
nineteen seventy one. Park ranger recalled speaking to Carrol as
she had asked them for hiking suggestions and also told
them that she was staying in the main visitor campground
of the park. Sadly, there's very little information available about

(10:32):
Carol's disappearance, and all we do know is that sometime
on February first or second, Carol hiked up to Bull
Pasture in the Aha Mountains, and that she made that
trip again on February third. Unfortunately, Carol never returned from
what should have been a day hike, and her absence
was noticed immediately. Her car was still parked in the
Bull Pasture Trailhead parking lot, and the only thing missing

(10:54):
was her boots and canteen. Park rangers immediately recognized the
car and its owner, after all, she had spoken to
them just today earlier asking them for hiking recommendations. Tucked
neatly under the windshield wiper of the car was a
handwritten note from Carroll giving the park rangers very specific instructions.

(11:15):
This note in context of Carroll's disappearance is certainly chilling
and makes you wonder whether Carroll maybe had a premonition
of what was going to happen to her. The note
read to the effect, if my car is still here
by February fourth, called park rangers, I am a solo
hiker with her sudden disappearance in this ominous note. Park

(11:36):
rangers wasted no time in reporting Carroll missing, and soon
authorities had descended on the area. A wide scale search
was carried out for Carol, but no sign of her
has ever been found. Over thirty six hundred hours were
put into the investigation, but it remained fruitless. Volunteers, search
and rescue personnel, sheriffs, investigators, and other experts, totaling sixty

(11:56):
four people all joined in the search for Carol, but
were able to locate any clues. Carlton Oglesby, a Sheff
lieutenant at the time, told the AJO Copper News on
February eleventh, nineteen seventy one. Everybody, the monument people, our people,
border patrol, the sales, law and Order has warned themselves
out looking for this woman. They're all experienced and they've

(12:19):
gone over the whole place of the fine tooth comb.
None of them see how she could have been missed
if she's in there. While Carroll has not been found,
investigators did discover some baffling entries on the trail registers
across the park. As the trail log for bull Pasture,
Carol had cryptically written, Hi, if you have binox meaning binoculars,

(12:39):
look for a white shirt or yellow windbreaker across the
way and say hello. The other entry read I brought
the beer? Where were you? This now begs the question
who was Carol waiting for? Who had she brought to
beers for? And why were they meeting on the bull
Pasture trail. Twenty twenty two marks the fifty first anniversary

(13:01):
of Carroll's disappearance, and we are sadly no closer now
than we were in nineteen seventy one in solving this mystery.
In fact, there is an underwhelming lack of information in
Carol's case, and she has not been listed with NamUs
or other authorities. Anyone with any information, no matter how
small or insignificant it may seem, is asked to contact

(13:22):
the Organ Pipe Cactus National Park Rangers at five two
zero three eight seven six eight four nine, number eight
David Barkley Miller. From an early age, David Barkeley Miller
was a force to be reckoned with. Washington Post article
states David Miller's parents no more could have kept him

(13:43):
out of the wilderness than a fish could be kept
out of water or a bird from flight. It's clear
that David loved the great outdoors, and this love affair
of his with nature would ultimately cost him his life.
After graduating from college with a degree in religious studies,
David decided that his job needed to be adventurous one.
He wasn't the kind of person to sit behind a

(14:03):
desk all day. He wanted to get out into the
world and experienced as much of it as possible. When
the phone rang in early nineteen ninety eight, David was
over the moon to hear that it was the Sonona
US Forest Service offering him a job as a park
ranger in the Coconino National Forest. David took the job
and was incredibly eager to get started. His family was

(14:25):
incredibly proud of him, and it was clear that he
had a long and happy career ahead of him. Unfortunately,
the promise of a bright future would come to an
end on May nineteenth, nineteen ninety eight. On that day,
David told his colleagues that he was going for a
two and a half day hike in the Red Rock
Secret Mountain wilderness area in the Cocanino National Forest where
he worked. David was considered a very experienced hiker and

(14:49):
there were no concerns for his safety as he knew
the park well. On that same day, his fellow park
rangers saw David at the Beaver Creek Ranger station, but
this was the last time that David Miller was ever
seen or heard from. When he failed to return from
his trip and return to work, his colleagues raised the
alarm and the search began. The search intensified after David's

(15:12):
car was discovered abandoned at the bulti Arch Trail, but
no sign of him has ever been found. I said previously,
David was extremely experienced in the wilderness, and authorities believed
that he most likely got injured or felled during his high.
With the anniversary of his disappearance fast approaching, his family
and friends hope that twenty twenty two will be the

(15:33):
year that they finally receive answers. David Barkley Miller is
described as a white male with sandy blondehair, blue gray eyes,
stands at five foot eleven inches tall, weighs one hundred
and sixty pounds. He was last seen wearing a T shirt, shorts,
black hiking boots, and was carrying a forest green Gregory backpack.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact the Java

Speaker 3 (16:10):
Number seven.

Speaker 4 (16:11):
Michael Bryson, twenty seven year old Michael Bryson was the
love of his parents' lives. He was a constant source
of joy and happiness for those around him, and despite
having his own issues with substance abuse, Michael wanted to
help everyone add a brand. One of Michael's friends told
the Spokesman newspaper he was really a good guy. He

(16:33):
would give the shirt off his back to a stranger,
and he had the most infectious smile and laugh that
would light up any room he walked into. He was vulnerable,
but in the best way. He opened up to people
in a way that made them comfortable to be their
true selves around him. In August twenty twenty, Michael was
starting to turn his life around. He had struggled with

(16:54):
substance abuse and addiction, but was making conscious efforts to
get his life back on the right track. August third,
Some sources state the fourth, twenty twenty, would be the
last time that Michael's parents, Parish and Tina, would ever
see their son alive. According to reports, Michael stopped by
their house in Harrisburg, Oregon to see them and all

(17:14):
appeared well. During this meeting, Michael told his parents that
he was on his way to Hobo Campground in the
Umpqua National Forest and that he would be gone for
a round a week. Tina, Parish and other friends would
later tell investigators that Michael and a group of friends
were heading to Hobo Camp for a birthday celebration slash
camping trip. Those at the event, however, described it later

(17:36):
as more of a rave and that on the night
of August fourth, twenty twenty, between forty and sixty people
were in attendance. The party kicked off on the night
of the fourth, with friends gathering around and enjoying themselves.
The party continued well into the morning of August fifth,
and at around four thirty am, witnesses recalled seeing Michael
get out of a party bus and walk away from

(17:57):
the camp. This is the last confirmed sighting of Michael,
and since then he's not been seen or heard from.
His father, Parish told NBC News, we know he was
up there Monday and Tuesday, and that the DJ at
this party that was actually a rave invited him up
on stage to do a set, but by the next
morning he was gone. As his friends woke the next morning,

(18:20):
no doubt was pounding heads and hazy memories from the
night before, they noticed that Michael was missing. All his
camping equipment had been left in his friend's car, and
his phone had been turned off ever since they entered
the Hobo campground, According to his mother, Tina, who was
only alerted to her son's disappearance on August sixth, twenty twenty,
by the time we found out, it was almost twelve

(18:41):
hours since he'd been missing. The moment I put my
foot out of the car, I knew Michael was gone.
People weren't looking for Michael. They were sitting around drinking, eating, laughing.
Nobody was out searching for him. So I felt in
my gut something had happened. Michael's father also added, there's

(19:01):
been a lot of conflicting stories from the beginning. One
story is that he walked away from the camp. The
other story is that a group of individuals picked him
up on the road. It appears that those at Hobo
Campground with Michael dragged their heels in reporting and missing,
and valuable.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
Time was lost on his case.

Speaker 4 (19:18):
When the alarm was finally raised, the Lane County Sheriff's Office,
along with horseback riders, search and rescue teams, boots on
the ground, and drones all set about searching for Michael. Unfortunately,
after almost nineteen days, the search was called off as
no trace of Michael was found. To their credit, some
of Michael's friends and even strangers who'd attended the party

(19:40):
stayed behind to help his family search for him. His
family believed that those who attended the party hold the
key to what happened to Michael that night, and it
will take the right person to talk for answers and
justice to be served. While investigators called off official searches,
his family and friends continue to search Hobo campground while
couple times a week for him. Facebook pages, groups, posters,

(20:04):
and flyers were created and circulated in the area. Michael's
family fought to keep his name in the media spotlight,
hoping that his picture might jog someone's memory. His family
continued and continues to this day, to advocate for Michael
as at the forefront of the search form the Facebook
group Let's Find Michael Bryson as over twenty two thousand

(20:26):
members who are dedicated to helping the family look for him.
The group is littered with posts from friends, family, and
strangers were all pulling their tips and information together in
a safe haven.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
The fight to keep.

Speaker 4 (20:38):
Michael's case in the media paid off when in December
twenty twenty five months after he disappeared, a new tip
came into investigators. According to the spokesman, the Lane County
Sheriff's Office received a tip that led them to Bryce
Creek Road, just a short distance from the Hobo campground area.
During a search of this area, the Sheriff's office discovered

(20:59):
items of Michael's clothing that he had been wearing on
the night he disappeared. Parish later told KPIC News the
blue ribbon is right there where two of the items
were found, and the blue and orange ribbon is where
the other items were found. I'm ninety nine percent sure
these items were planted. He also added, we have a
really good idea of what's happened, some idea as to

(21:22):
who's involved, and we're just waiting on that last tip
to open everything up.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
We just want the truth. We want Michael back.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
Twenty two will mark two years since Michael was steriously
vanished from the hobo camp in Namco National Forest, but
his family have not given up on their search for him.
His parents regularly drive down the roads and through the
area where he was last seen. They continued to update
the Facebook group. Have also created the Michael Bryson Foundation,

(21:54):
which aimes to address the needs of any family searching
for a missing loved one. Michael is described as a
white male with brown hair blue eyes, although other agencies
report green or hazel. He stands six foot tall and
weighs one hundred and fifty pounds. Michael has facial hair,
a nose ring, and several tattoos. Tattoos include hands shaking

(22:16):
in the shape of a heart with stay strong my
brother's in cursive writing on his ribcage, a geometric shaped
bear on the back of his arm, an elephant on
his right leg, a tree and a diamond shape on
the lower left front leg and a lion face on.

Speaker 3 (22:31):
His left leg.

Speaker 4 (22:33):
He was last seen wearing a white T shirt, tan
short and white crocs with rainbows on them. NBC News
also added that he may be wearing a brown corduroy
baseball cap. Currently, there's a ten thousand dollars reward in
this case, and anyone with any information is asked to

(29:17):
disappeared the search was called, off much to the disappointment
of his. Family the police began interviewing everyone, present but
nobody was able to provide them with any solid. Clues
lucas father spoke To France, blue telling them the police
combed the area On wednesday And thursday, morning but afterwards
we did not see them. Anymore we with our, friends our,

(29:39):
family volunteers of the. Sector we then searched for a
week every day In. Vain we were just shown a
map of what had been, done as if to, say now.
Manage it was a walker who alerted to a suspicious
smell On june twenty. Sixth the police first believed in
a runaway and THEN i think If lucas had been a,
minor the search would have been a. Longer better organized

(30:02):
dog association had offered to help, us the police. REFUSED
i don't. Understand we should have pulled all our forces
to find. Him we might have been able to save.
Him On june twenty, sixth twenty, eighteen the world came
to a standstill for a nose when a fellow hiker
Found lucas's body slumped against the tree less than two

(30:22):
thousand feet from The waterfalls parking. Lot The corner was
called to the scene and he determined that lucas body
was severely decomposed and that an autopsy would likely not
yield any. Results positive identification was made through clothing AND,
dna and The renode family began their grieving. Process due
to the level of, decomposition the corner was not able

(30:43):
to determine a time or cause of death that ruled
out any serious. INJURY a toxicology test was also, run
with the results detecting the presence of drug molecules corresponding
to a treatment prescribed To, lucas but within the limits
of therapeutic. Dosage this therefore made it impossis to evaluate
the thesis of. Intoxication his, family, understandably were incredibly displeased

(31:06):
with the investigation into their son's disappearance and eventual. Passing
his mother gave an interview To France, blue telling them
the police made me listen to the call so THAT
i could identify my son's.

Speaker 3 (31:16):
VOICE i was.

Speaker 4 (31:17):
UPSET i did not have the force to listen to
everything in the. Recording lucas call handler does not give him,
advice does not ask him the right. Questions instead of
telling him not to, move he asked him to try
to find a way, out and then it cuts. Off,
unfortunately it seems that there is no resolution For lucas's

(31:37):
family to the level of. Decomposition his family were not
allowed to view him before the burial as his body
was quote too. Damaged lucas was laid to rest and
now his family are fighting for answers and. Justice his
family sent letters to the authorities In, france but it
appears that those letters were, ignored leading them to file
a complaint by a. Lawyer his mother has also accused

Speaker 4 (39:21):
Sense colin had a successful career in medical, sales was
Accomplished american football, player and had a, steady happy home

Followed according to his, Wife Jennifer, comb was in recovery
from addiction to, painkillers and he kept on track after

(39:41):
going into, rehab but in the days before his, disappearance
she noticed a massive shift in his. Behavior colin had
reported pain in his jaw and left, arm and had
gotten a little, sleep which was very out of character for.
Him in, fact his family jokingly called him mister DApp
due to his ability To i'll sleep everyone.

Speaker 3 (40:00):
Else on the day of.

Speaker 4 (40:03):
His, Disappearance jennifer noticed another bizarre shift In colin's. Behavior
she TOLD Usa today That colin had slept for three
to five hours that night and it turned down.

Speaker 3 (40:13):
Dinner this was an odd behavior.

Speaker 4 (40:15):
For a man who was known to sleep for long
hours like a, baby and she also noticed that his
eyes appeared. Beaty colton had also consumed several alcoholic drinks that,
day but this was a vacation after. All at eight,
Pm colan donned his fishing gear and headed.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
Out on what would be his last ever.

Speaker 4 (40:32):
Trip all this was taken into consideration by The corner
and When colin's autopsy was, performed it reveals some troubling.
Answers according to the autopsy, Report colin had been suffering
FROM cte or chronic traumatic, acephalopathy which is common in
those who frequently received blows to the, head such as football.
Players this disorder degenerates the brain and causes memory, loss, dementia,

(40:57):
depression changes in, mood and difficulty making, decisions.

Speaker 3 (41:01):
Along with a myriad of other.

Speaker 4 (41:02):
Things medical records indicated that he had only suffered one
concussion during his freshman year and if the school dealt
with the matter promptly and the incident was. Recorded his
family later stated That colin had probably suffered four or
five more real serious concussions and dozens more smaller ones
along the. Way his brother had also jokingly called him

(41:23):
a meathead during a speech at his wedding and said
he's lucky he found you because he's no longer getting
into bar. Fights culin also suffered from two hardy eated,
discs which led to him being prescribed the prescription. Painkillers
corner also noted in the report That culin had a
slightly enlarged heart and slightly cloudy, lungs and no trauma

(41:43):
or marks to the, body further going on to state
That Colin infinity's anxiety and paranoia in the woods the
night Of may twenty sixth may have been exacerbated by
an elevated level of painkillers and THE. Cte stephen Cole
Mcent County Chief Medical, examiner would also later tell the
Press infinity became incapacitated before inhaling his own vomit and.

(42:04):
Choking while it appeared that the affinities finally had a.
Conclusion The Boston University center for The study Of traumatic
And cephalopathy also made their own. Conclusions colin's brain was
sent to them for further testing for they determined that
the severity OF cte was moderate and it's highly unlikely
that disease alone led to his.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
Death so, then what happened To colinfinity that?

Speaker 4 (42:26):
Night The Medical examiner's office noted that THE cte and
painkiller toxicity was present In, colin but no one has
been able to provide the family with any concrete. Answers
The Boston University center that Studied colin's brain made a
statement SAYING cte possibly affected his, judgment, insight and, behavior
but there are other, factors including the use of medications

(42:49):
prescribed by his, doctor that most likely contributed to the
circumstances surrounding his. Death, unfortunately because of the complexity of
his medications and medical, status it is possible to determine
the specific combination of factors that led to his tragic.
Death so something happened to Color infinity in the wilderness
that brisk by. Night but what did he have a

(43:11):
paranoid episode or was someone.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
Really out to get? Him for, now.

Speaker 4 (43:16):
It seems that the case is, closed that, is until
more evidence comes to. Light number Two Garrett, bardsley twelve
year Old Garrett bardsley loved baseball.

Speaker 3 (43:28):
And being in the great outdoors with his.

Speaker 4 (43:30):

exciting outing for. All children excitedly rushed into the forest
where The Venta mountains are located and were eager to

(43:51):
get going on their. Height after setting up camp and settling, In,
garrett his, father and the rest of the group made
their way To late Cumberand ie to do a spot of.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
Fishing armed with.

Speaker 4 (44:02):
Fishing, rods nets and, bait the group happily walked down
one hundred and fifty or so yard path that led
from their campsite to the. Lake during the fishing, Trip
garrett got his, shoes socks and pants wet.

Speaker 3 (44:14):
And complained to his father that they made him.

Speaker 4 (44:16):
Uncomfortable So garrett asked his dad if he could walk
back to the camp to change his. Clothes garrett's father,
agreed but this would be the last time That Garrett
bardsley was ever. Seen his father shouted out directions To,
garrett reminding him which forks and directions to take to
get to the. Campsite according to one, report While garrett

(44:36):
was making his way back to the, camp his father
heard someone Shouting, dad but didn't investigate these. Shouts fifteen
minutes had now passed Since garrett had made the one
hundred and fifty yard trek to the, campsite and.

Speaker 3 (44:48):
He still had not.

Speaker 4 (44:49):
Returned, Worried garrett's father began searching the path and the,
campsite thinking that his son had possibly taken a wrong,
turn but there was no sign of. Him this is
when panic set in and the gravity of the situation
took hold of his. Father after speaking to the scouts
at the, Site garrett's father discovered that no one had seen.

(45:09):
Him he quickly put out an alert for his, son
and The Summit County sheriff's office was called to the.

the laughter of scouts was now eerily quiet as volunteers
and investigators began combing through the area looking for any
sign of the. Boy in, all two hundred volunteers in

Lake garrett's mother confirmed investigators that the sack belonged to his. Son,
however The Charlie project interestingly notes but one of the
searchers claimed it was his. Own with little evidence to work,
with The Summit County sheriff's office concluded that it was
unlikely That garrett had been, kidnapped and the search was
called off nine days after he was last. Seen his

(46:16):
family continued to search for, him employing the help of
volunteers and desperately hoping to find any trace of their. Son,
unfortunately nothing has ever been, found and investigators believe That
garrett likely got lost on his way to or from the,
campsite and then he died from. Exposure while investigators believed
that he perished due to this, exposure this theory would

(46:36):
be turned upside down in two thousand and. Nine according
to The Park, record a woman came forward in two
thousand and nine claiming to have Spotted garrett In. Nevada in,
fact she called this tip into THE tv Show America's Most,

once and she had also taken up self defense classes
in order to defend herself to the occasion. Arise we
all know that both exercise and getting outdoors is great
for your health.

Speaker 3 (48:44):
And mental well, being and no, doubt.

Speaker 4 (48:47):
Employees at the facility likely Encouraged jureka to channel her
energy into something like. Running, sadly, However jerika's running routine
would end in tragedy with their disappearance and eventual. Demise february,
eighteenth twenty. Eighteen started, Normally jerika donned her running gear
and told her roommate that she was going for a usual.

(49:07):

a running down The Tempanogos cave trail with their water,
bottle phone and. Earbuds after, that the trail goes. Cold

(49:32):
As jerika lived in a sober living, facility the alarm
was raised very quickly when she failed her return home that,
night And jerika's mother was immediately. Contacted while the facilities
she lived at did act swiftly regarding her, disappearance it
appears that the police did Not jerika's mother reported her
daughter missing to the, police but the missing person report

(49:53):
had been filed in the wrong, district causing huge delays
in the. Investigation it wasn't until eight days after To
jureka had been last seen that the police finally launched
a full investigation and searched for. Her investigators began to
trace her last steps and noted That minks had gone
off the proper trail and continued her run into the
afternoon in an area of the park that was closed for.

(50:15):
Winter search and rescue, crews police, departments and volunteers scoured
the area looking For, juika doing whatever they could despite
the wet and windy. Conditions at some point during the,
search snow began to, fall which made it difficult to,
traverse and the roads became. Blocked despite the, conditions volunteers
and personnel turned up every day in good, spirits determined

(50:37):
to bring peace and justice To jerreka's, family but there
was just no sign. Over, eventually the search was called,
off but the investigation into her disappearance. Continued according to
Photographer Brittany, lisenby who was on the trail On february,
eighteenth she had heard gunshots in the. Area she also
allegedly came across a camp site that looked as though

(50:59):
someone had set it up for a, ritual complete with
sharpened sticks arranged in a deliberate. Way the police were
unable to find any connections between the strange camp And jerika's, disappearance,
however and it continues to be an odd tidbit inner.

jericho had suffered a serious break to both bones in
the lower part of one of her, legs although investigators
cannot be sure how these injuries were. Obtained since the

could to help their only son and worked to enrich
his life in whatever way they. Could One La times
article mentions that both The millers worked as school teachers
and were determined not to shut their son, away but
to get him into the outdoor. World following his, illness his,

(58:00):
Mother sharon had even gone back to school to obtain
a degree in speech therapy so that she could help
her son. Recover In june nineteen ninety, two The millers
decided to Take kenny hiking in The Sierra nevada and
into The Yosemite National. Park what should have been a
happy occasion for The miller's quickly turned into a, tragedy
and just ten years after they'd almost lost their son

(58:22):
for the first, time they would lose him. Again according
To sharon And, Bob kenny was happily throwing stones into a,
creek giggling and keeping himself. Occupied also on that trip
Was kenny's little, sister and it said that the three
turned away for what would be a matter of seconds
within the blink of an. Eye as they turned back

(58:42):
Around kenny was. Gone they hoped that he had merely
wandered off after seeing an animal or maybe a shiny rock,
nearby but as they began to search for, him their
worst fears were. Confirmed While kenny was active and, lively
his abilities meant that he was not like your normal
twelve year old, boy and his parents knew. That minutes
after The millers had discovered That kenny was, Missing bob

(59:05):
was running through The Pacific Crest, trail asking anyone if
they had seen his, son while also keeping an eye
out for his Beloved. Kenny people listened To bob as
he explained his situation and offered to lend a helping.
Hand as darkness, Fell, Bob sharon and volunteers kept looking For,
kenny and by the next, morning even more volunteers had

(59:25):
poured onto The Pacific Crest.

Speaker 3 (59:27):
Trail to look for the little.

Speaker 4 (59:28):
Boy sharon later told The La times when that busload,
ARRIVED i can't tell you how that made us. Feel
PEOPLE i didn't even know had come up to search
for my.

Speaker 3 (59:39):
Son we were, very very.

Speaker 4 (59:41):
Overwhelmed the same article detailed how at around one am that,
morning over fifty people had filed onto a bus sat
For Lake tahoe on The Pacific Crest, trail where The
millers were. Located, volunteers The Alpine County Sheriff's office and
The Madera County Sheriff's office continued to serve For, kenny
but there was just no sign of. Him weeks passed

(01:00:04):
without any, news and The millers slowly began to lose. Hope,
then just a month After kenny, disappeared his family were
hit with the tragic. News on a ridge Near Stephen's,
peak close To Mice, meadow Lay kenny's. Body the ridge
upond Which kenny was found was described as rocky terrain
at about nine eight hundred feet. Elevation to this, day

(01:00:27):
nobody's ever been able to explain How kenny made it
up there by. Himself, unfortunately the recovery of his remains
were hindered due to bad weather with THE la time Supporting.
CALIFORNIA A Highway patrol helicopter crew tried to retrieve the
body earlier in the, day but the craft was unable
to land because of high. Winds kenny's official cause of
death was listed as, exposure but there are very few articles.

Speaker 3 (01:00:48):
Pertaining to his.

Speaker 4 (01:00:49):
Disappearance his family were understandably devastated by the news and
the loss of their only. Son many people believe that
there is no Way kenny could have made it up
into an area fled to rocky terrain and large thick.
Bushes is there something nefarious Behind kenny's, Disappearance although it seems,
likely it also seems likely that we'll never. Know rest in, Peace,

(01:01:12):
kenney and our condolences to the. Family number Eight Dennis.
Martin june, fourteenth twenty, twenty mark the fifty third anniversary
of the vanishing of a little six year old, Boy
Dennis Lloyd. Martin dennis was the light of his parents',
lives and what should have been a, happy Joyful Father's

(01:01:35):
day in The Great Smoky Mountains National park quickly turned
into a nightmare for The martin. Family On june, thirteenth
nineteen sixty, Nine William martin entered The Great Smoking Mountains
National park with his two, Sons douglas And, dennis and his, Father.
Clyde martin's were embarking on what had been a long
standing family tradition For Father's, day with the group planning

(01:01:55):
to camp and. Hike as they entered the, park the
group first hike From Aid's cove To Russell, field where
they pitched their tents and settled in for the. Night
this first night went without a, hitch And martin's men
gathered around the fire eating the food they had, prepared
with the two adults.

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
Telling the children's.

Speaker 4 (01:02:11):
Stories it wasn't just The martins at the, camp, Though
family friends and some extended family had joined them in their,
tradition and everyone was excited to get a good night's
sleep after the long day of. Hiking when the sun
rose On june, fourteenth nineteen sixty, Nine William martin had
no idea that within a few hours his entire world

(01:02:32):
would be turned upside. Down after packing up their gear
and setting their, course the group had a To Spence,
field which is located close to The Appalachian. Trail Great
Smoky Mountains National park spans five two hundred and twenty
two four hundred and twenty seven, acres and some of
the trails are very. Difficult, Nevertheless dennis reportedly kept up

(01:02:53):
to the adults and even surprised some with his hiking.
Abilities as the group near Spence, field everyone one gazed
on in, amazement taking in the beauty and sheer size
of quad lay before. Them while the adults took in the,
scenery some of the, children Including douglas And, dennis decided
that they wanted to play a prank on the. Adults
according To Douglas, martin the boys decided to sneak up

(01:03:15):
and surprise the. Adults douglas and the other two boys
went south and then west and came upon the, adults
While dennis went northwest as it, were and intended to
come up on the adults from a north and south.
Direction the time the boys parted was the last Time
dennis was. Seen As dennis split away from his, brother
the two had no idea it would be the last

(01:03:36):
time they would see each, other and innocent child's prank
unfortunately turned into a, manhuunt and fifty three years, on
we are still no closer to the. Truth As douglas
and the other children flank to the adults from the,
south they eagerly Awaited dennis.

Speaker 3 (01:03:51):
From the, north but he never.

Speaker 4 (01:03:53):
Showed at, first they thought he could be waiting for
the perfect time to, strike but as the minutes passed
and there was no sign of, him began to. Panic
dennis's absence was immediately noted by the adults In Spence,
field and after listening to the children recall their, story
the search for Little dennis. Began William clyde and the
other adults with him ran Through, spencefield Shouting dennis's, name

(01:04:15):
hoping that this was all part of their. Joke at
the time of his, Disappearance dennis was wearing a red,
shirt which provided a stark contrast to the lush greener around.
Him the group tore through the, weeds the, trees dodging,
rocks looking high.

Speaker 3 (01:04:29):
And low for the.

Speaker 4 (01:04:29):
Boy when the group had no, luck they knew they
had to take drastic. Action no the group had radios or,
telephones as in this was nineteen sixty, nine So Clyde
NIS's grandfather hiked nine miles to the nearest park ranger
station to report his grandson. Missing he then hiked the
additional nine miles, back all while shouting his grandson's name

(01:04:50):
and hoping to see the red t shirt in the
sea of green that surrounded. Him the park rangers sprang
into action and began assimbling a team to look for
the little. BOY MPs report Into dentist's. Disappearance Park service
notes heavy rainstorms and thunderstorms moved in around dark and
greatly hampered search. Activity precipitation was estimated to be two

(01:05:11):
point five inches or more in the Spence field. Area
all local streams were high and. Turbulent park rangers and
The martins battle to the tumultuous weather and began planning
their search efforts for the next. Day THE nps reported
Into dennis's, disappearance notes the chief rangers set up the
following plans for the. Morning one crew of thirty men

(01:05:32):
with five. Leaders ten crews of two to four men
with ten leaders set up at a camp At. Spencefield
obtain a helicopter if. Possible it appears that every effort
was made to Locate, dnis and in, total over fourteen
hundred showed up to help. Look the search For Dennis
martin turned out to be the biggest search effort in

(01:05:53):
The Great Smoky Mountain park's, history but even with hundreds
of men at their, disposal investigators fell to find any.

Speaker 3 (01:06:00):
Sign of the little.

Speaker 4 (01:06:01):
Boy By june, twentieth nineteen sixty, nine dennis seventh birthday
had come around and his family were left to celebrate
the occasion without. Him search For dennis continued with new
volunteers and search and rescue personnel flooding into the park
each day to help find.

Speaker 3 (01:06:16):
Him the only possible clue discovered was a.

Speaker 4 (01:06:19):
Footprint, however many investigators have said that the footprint was
actually caused by a boy scout who was.

Speaker 3 (01:06:25):
Helping look For.

Speaker 4 (01:06:25):
Dennis there was a sock and a shoe, found but
there was no correlation between the sock and the shoe And. Dennis,
ever made with thousands of man hours under their, belt
investigators knew the outlook was bleak for Little Dennis. Martin
after two weeks was searching high and low For, dennis
the authorities made the tough decision to scale back the.

(01:06:46):
Reference the search would still continue For dennis well into
late nineteen sixty, nine just not the.

Speaker 3 (01:06:52):
Skill that it had been operating at.

Speaker 4 (01:06:54):
Before dennis, parents understandably, heartbroken offered a five thousand dollars,
reward which in today's money would be about forty thousand
dollars for any information that led.

Speaker 3 (01:07:05):
To their son square.

Speaker 4 (01:07:06):
Bouts this reward made it appear as Though dennis had
possibly been, kidnapped but the authorities confirmed that there was
no evidence to support this. Theory in, fact there is
little evidence to work with In dennis, case and to this,
day the search For Little Dennis martin remains the largest
ever search in the history of The Great Smoky Mountains National.
Park over the, years several leads have, arisen such as

(01:07:30):
the lead discovered in the first few years After dennis.
Disappeared The Knoxville news reported that A jensng hunter found
the skeletal remains of a young child while he was out. Forging,
however due to the illegal nature of His jenseng, gathering
this anonymous man never reported his findings to the, police
feared that he would be. Arrested it wasn't till almost
twenty years, later in nineteen eighty, five that this man

(01:07:52):
finally came forward and told someone what he had. Found,
unfortunately by the time investigators and the searchers managed to
score the, area remains were either gone or hadn't been
there in the first. Place this lead has never been
confirmed by investigators and nothing has.

Speaker 3 (01:08:06):
Ever come of it.

Speaker 4 (01:08:06):
Since the disappearance Of dennis leaves us with three main,
theories and some are more chilling than the. Others the
first and most straightforward theory is That dennis wandered too
far from the group and became lost to a. Child
the endless lines of trees and rocks can be incredibly,
confusing and before you know, it you know where near

(01:08:27):
where you started after getting, Lost dennis could have parascuted
exposure and a lack of food and. Water If dennis
had gotten, lost how search and rescue crews not found
his body as they were scouring the. Area fourteen hundred,
people as we, stated joined in on the, search with
helicopters and several different agencies offering their, assistance so it

(01:08:48):
seems like it would have been hard for them to miss.
Him this leads us onto the second, theory. Abduction in
the aftermath Of dennis's, disappearance his parents put up a
five thousand dollars reward for, information despite the fact that
there was no evidence to Suggest dennis had been. Taken Harold,
key who was hiking with his family at the time
Of dennists, disappearance recalled investigators that on the Afternoon dennist,

(01:09:11):
disappeared he heard a sickening scream and also saw a
strange looking man darting through the woods before jumping into
a white car and speeding. Away did The key family
Hear dennis being. Kidnapped if, so who was the man
of the white car and why did he Take? Dennis
was this a crime of opportunity or had this bizarre

(01:09:31):
man been following the family and plotting his crime. Well
the abduction theory also ties into another bizarre theory that
floats around. Online some people believe That dennis was kidnapped
by a strange cannibalistic group who hid themselves deep into
the park to avoid. Detection, again there's no evidence to
support this, theory and yet it seems to be another

(01:09:53):
bizarre online conspiracy surrounding a cold. Case the final theory
is that dentist was attacked by a white animals such
as a, bear which may explain the blood curdling scream
that The key family heard that, Afternoon but with no
physical evidence recovered from the, scene it's hard to say
for certain what happened to Little. Dennis Part Father's day

(01:10:14):
is now a somber time for The martin, family a
time for reflection and. Rememorans while reading through The National
Park service file On dennis, case which is available on
THE MPs, website we came across an interesting. Page on
page sixty one of the, report is a long distance
telephone call record Dated july twenty, third nineteen, seventy a

(01:10:35):
year After dennis. Disappeared the log is about a call
from The chief Of Police Hugh wells The Chief Ranger.
Snedden the message Reads Chief wells said he received an
anonymous phone call from a woman stated in about three
weeks ago she had seen The martin child in a
white automobile With tennessee license, plates did not get the,

(01:10:56):
number On Cecil street in Knoxvill. Tennessee she said that
the man driving the car was, bald between thirty eight
and forty five years of, age and there was also
another child in the.

Speaker 5 (01:11:07):
Car she said that the child had redacted his head
out of the window and she was positive it was
The martin, child and that since seeing the child she
had looked again at his pictures and therefore the.

Speaker 3 (01:11:19):
Report according To.

Speaker 4 (01:11:21):
Wells she would not reveal her name because she did
not want any.

Speaker 3 (01:11:25):
Publicity that the.

Speaker 4 (01:11:26):
More she thought about the, child the more it sure
she was that it was in fact The martin.

Speaker 3 (01:11:30):
Boy the fate of this.

Speaker 4 (01:11:32):
Lead and the boy that the anonymous woman saw in
the car has remained a mystery fifty three years on
And Dennis martin still remains. Missing it's one of The
Great Smoky mountains most enduring, cases And dennis family are
desperate that one day they will know the truth of
what happened to Little. Dennis anyone with any, information it's

(01:47:14):
Almost to cult a personality it's time that we remember the,
women whose lives were taken and that is why we're
bringing you the Story Of. Sixteen year old nancy wilcox.

Speaker 3 (01:47:26):
Nancy was your.

Speaker 4 (01:47:26):
Typical sixteen year Old, Girl she lived in holiday utah
with her family and picked Up A job at an
arctic circle drive in as a Waitress when she. Wasn't
attending olympics high school nancy was a cheerleader and, was
popular amongst her friends and in, the months before she
disappeared she told her cousin. Something that, would chill, Investigators Years,
later her cousin jamie Hayden later told investigators that nancy

(01:47:50):
confided in her that an older man who was attending
Law school. Had been visiting nancy's work it appears that
the two had likely struck up a, conversation In, A few,
times and susie nancy's sister but also disclosed it on
a few occasions this unknown man. Had driven past Their house,
WHAT article about nancy's disappearance i suggested that this mysterious

(01:48:12):
man May. Have been indeed dead Bundy at the Time
of nancy's disappearance in, October of nineteen seventy Four Bundy Was,
living in salt lake city Where he Was Attending the University.
Of utah school of Law we all know that, bundy
loved young brunette, women and, With her thick dark hair
nancy would have certainly Stood out to him had Ted
had been prowling throughout Halliday. And had begun Grooming nancy

(01:48:36):
life of the wilcox carried on as. Usual day in
Day out, that was until, october second nineteen seventy four
the day that would turn their lives upside down and
send them into a dark spiral the. Pursuit Of truth,
And justice on october second nancy left her home At
Twenty four o nine arnette drive for what. Would be
the last, Time according to multiple sources nancy had into

(01:48:57):
school and a little later on the day school to go.
And purchase some chewing gum nancy Left The Safe grounds
of olympus high school was last seen by our fellow
students in the Passenger seat. Of a yellow volkswagen bug
this was the last Time The sixteen year old, nancy
wilcox was ever seen And It Would take the Holiday
Police Department now the unified police department several months to

(01:49:20):
Even begin the search for when she failed, to return
home from school her, Parents, did contact the police however
both parties agreed that perhaps the young. Girl had Likely
run away nancy's sister Susie Would, later tell YouTuber captain
borax but all, The day of her disappearance nancy had
gotten into an argument with her dad And had left the,
house with this in mind and, This being the nineteen

(01:49:44):
seventies nancy was ruled to run away and very few
efforts were made to find her in those initial hours and.
Even days, following her disappearance In fact it wasn't until
december nineteen seventy four That the police even made nancy's
disappearance public and began. To take her case set this
only came after another young woman disappeared and several. More

(01:50:05):
had been found murdered it's unacceptable that it took the
disappearance and murder of several more young women for any
of their, cases to be taken seriously and it's likely
that vital evidence in all the cases was lost due.
To the inaction of investigators as the days and weeks passed,
without Word from their daughter the wilcox began to worry

(01:50:25):
that something. Terrible had happened to her, weeks quickly turned
into months, which slowly Turned into years and the wilcox
had no. News of their daughter's disappearance her friends, and
family spoke, with investigators but despite this nobody could find
anything to suggest to, where she.

Speaker 3 (01:50:41):
May have gone, why she may have left or what.
Could have Happened to, her for.

Speaker 4 (01:50:46):
The wilcox family the next fifteen years would be, filled
with agony and sorrow wondering if their beloved daughter had started,
a new life somewhere else or whether the unthinkable. Might have,
happened to her.

Speaker 3 (01:50:58):
Of course their, siblings never forgot About it and her
sister susie. Has been her.

Speaker 4 (01:51:02):
Biggest, advocate wilcox waited and waited hoping for some news,
from the, local police department and, then in nineteen eighty
nine a new lead would come. From The unlikeliest of
sources ted bundy had been found guilty and was sentenced,
and was waiting his fate and as he paced up and.
Down his death row cell he began to go through
his list of victims and decided that it was. Time

(01:51:23):
to tell the truth bundy confessed To having been responsible
for nancy's disappearance and told prison officials that he had
buried her body Somewhere In Or Near, the capitol reef
national park maintaining the last shread of control.

Speaker 3 (01:51:37):
He had over his victims bundy claimed that he. Wasn't
Sure the exact spot while nancy's family felt like, they
finally had some answers they now had to find her
Body and find out whether. Bundy, Was telling the.

Speaker 4 (01:51:49):
Truth unfortunately nancy's, remains Have never been found and bundy's
confession And the eyewitness accounts Of nancy and the yellow
bolkswagen are the only pieces of evidence to. Connect her
to this case there Was one possible sighting of Nancy That, Puts.
Her in lake point utah the waitress came forward after,
her disappearance was made public telling Investigators that she had

(01:52:12):
seen nancy in the company of a man with a
mustache and that the two had Left. In, a light
colored volkswagen now it's never been confirmed Where, this sighting
was of, nancy and if it was we don't know,
for sure that The. Man Whether it was bundy if
nancy's disappearance had been made public in, the days after
she disappeared this clue May, have led them to nancy
and her family.

Speaker 3 (01:52:32):
Would Finally Have Some Answers.

Speaker 4 (01:52:35):
The capitol reef national park is over two Hundred miles
away From, where Nancy lived in utah and bundy Claimed
before his passing that nancy had. Never been in his
car bundy gave multiple, different accounts of what happened though
sometimes speaking in third person in order to. Distance Himself
from his crimes if Nancy had, never gotten in bundy's
car how had she gotten over two Hundred.

Speaker 3 (01:52:57):
Miles Away To.

Speaker 4 (01:52:58):
The capitol reef national, park bundy's accounts wildly Differ and
it seems that bundy himself was incapable of.

Speaker 3 (01:53:04):
Getting his own.

Speaker 4 (01:53:05):
Story, Straight As it stands today nancy wilcox is Still
missing and her sister susy continues to fight. For justice
on Her behalf it's Believed that bundy, knew where nancy was,
buried but wanted, to exercise like we said that last
thread of control he had over by keeping her final
resting place a Secret That only he knew nancy wilcox

going to, get in the park stole and fog rolled,

(02:12:43):
in with the morning sun which did little. To help
the search efforts helicopter, pilots furiously studied weather charts hoping

Sitting so close to chris two women carried on further
up the trail and found a spot to. Sit and
eat their lunch just as they, were taking their first bite.

Continued on eating before packing up their leftovers and boxes
and preparing to carry on with. The rest of the
trail it wasn't until they walked past the same rock
that they had seen the strange mount on that they realized.

Speaker 3 (02:15:26):
That something was.

Speaker 4 (02:15:27):
A mess on the ground they, saw can of Diet
pepsi and remember that chris had been carrying a can.
When they saw him earlier diet pepsi. Was also his
favorite drink all these. Details were related to investigators now
the picture was, becoming, a little more clear perhaps but? Who,
was this mysterious man unfortunately no forensic evidence, was obtained

up to this card later police began calling through the
