The Vanishing of Adrienne Salinas

Happy (belated) Halloween everyone! This weeks episode covers the disappearance and subsequent murder of Adrienne Salinas; a beautiful 19 year old Arizona woman who disappeared one fateful evening after some mysterious and questionable events. She was found 2 months later in the desert 30 miles away with virtually no indication as to who, how or why. Was it the creepy cab driver who alleges he was the last to speak with her minutes before disappearing? Or was it the popular theory of the "Zombie Hunter" responsible for the Canal Murders in the area decades before? Or maybe...was it someone much closer than anyone has realized or considered? Listen in as we go over the facts and find some major discrepancies that seem to have gone unnoticed to many.

The opinions shared in this episode are just that-opinions.

***Regarding Trigger Warning: skip to 1 hour 1 minute in.***
