Thanks for waiting on us! Stormy started a new job (aside from ACCA), and it derailed the editing schedule a bit. We begin by discussing the unfortunate outcome of Brittany Robinson's father's murder trial. And then we bring you the long-awaited case of Stephen Pearson from Grand Bay, AL.

On December 27, 2000, when Stephen Pearson signed for a misdelivered package to help a postal worker, he couldn’t have known it would set off a chain of events that would end in mystery, suspicion—and silence.

The package? Ten pounds of marijuana.

Stephen’s reaction? He told the neighbors they had to report it… or he would.

Days later, Stephen vanished without a trace.

In Part 1, we take you back to the beginning—to who Stephen was, what he said, and how his final days unraveled like a slow-burning fuse. You’ll hear never-before-released details, quotes from those closest to him, and insight from the very investigator who’s carried this case for more than two decades.

Because someone knows the truth… and someone made sure Stephen never came back.

If you have any information regarding Stephen’s case:
