Death X Southwest: True Crime

Episode 96: The Disappearance of Tara Calico - A Case of Vanishing Clues

Listen Later
Some stories haunt you, and this is one of them. A girl goes for a bike ride… and simply never comes back. No evidence of a struggle. No witnesses stepping forward. No body. And then, nearly a year later, a chilling photograph surfaces in a parking lot almost 1,500 miles away. Was it her? Is she still alive? And why, after decades, do the pieces of this puzzle still not quite fit?
This is the story of Tara Calico.
xoxo, Margot 💀✨😘
