In part 2 we examine the greater conspiracy surrounding the Vanishing of Melanie Flynn.  Lexington Police Officer Bill Canan, who claimed to be using Melanie as a confidential informant for his undercover work in the drug scene is fired from his job for a multitude of reasons related to insubordination.  Canan denies any involvement in Melanie’s disappearance or in any illegal activities.  However, his partner, Drew Thornton, dies while flying a plane carrying two hundred pounds of cocaine into the United States from Columbia.

In the early 1990’s, former reporter Sally Denton releases a book entitled “The Bluegrass Conspiracy.” The book goes on to expose a massive drug and arm trafficking operation being carried out between South America and the US with local police as well as several federal agents working hand-in-hand with Pablo Escobar’s Medellin cartel.  In addition to trafficking, there are cases of witness intimidation, theft, assault and even murder.  Canan is eventually arrested, charged and convicted of cocaine trafficking.  During his trial, several witnesses claim he was directly responsible for Melanie’s disappearance and murder.
