The payphone that brought Elaine Nix to Zack's Food Rack is gone, but little else has changed at the Gainesville pit stop. The Taken Too Soon team travels through Elaine's last known whereabouts as well as where her body was discovered. Later, University of North Georgia assistant professor Dr. Jon Hager breaks down Elaine's autopsy, which listed the manner of death as "undetermined." 

The music throughout this podcast is by Ben Ingram.
