In 1982 Santa Fe, New Mexico a local respected reverend, Reynaldo Rivera, answered a call to deliver last rites to a dying man. That was the last time Father Rivera was seen alive. The case went cold until two years later in Montana another priest went missing under similar circumstances.

Are both cases connected or are the links between the cases simply coincidental? Listen to both cases and find out the dark secrets one reverend kept hidden until 2015, on today's episode of Myths, Mysteries, & Monsters .
