Welcome back to another episode of the True Crime Society Podcast.

In this episode we discuss two separate cases of missing celebrities:

  • Joseph Pichler was a child star, best known for his roles in films such as Varsity Blues, Beethoven’s 3rd and Beethoven’s 4th.  In 2006,  Joseph’s vehicle was found abandoned in Washington State with a note indicating that his belongings should go to his brother.  Now, 19 years later, Joseph remains missing.
  • Musician Richey Edwards was part of the British band ‘Manic Street Preachers.’  Richey had a documented history of mental health and addiction struggles.  Once when he was questioned about being serious about his music,  he carved the words ‘4 Real’ into his arm with a razor blade.  The injury required 18 stitches. In February 2005, Richey was due to leave London to fly to the United States to begin a press tour.  Instead, he left behind some of his belongings in his hotel and drove back to his apartment in Cardiff, Wales.  Over the next few weeks, there were reported sightings of Richey in that country.  His car would later be found abandoned near a bridge.  Reported sightings of Richey have come from India and Spain.  Richey has now been missing for over 20 years.
