A Note about this episode- For our regular listeners, this episode is a departure from the normal cases we cover.  A lawyer with sources close to the subject of this episode contacted us about the death of a woman named Gwen Hasselquist.  While her obituary lists the cause of death as Covid-19, his sources are convinced foul play is involved.  The following episode is our fact finding, in person interview, with the lawyer who has taken a personal interest in investigating this case.  Since recording this interview, we have filed several FOIA requests with local law enforcement, seeking out any additional information on what might have happened to Gwen.  If or when we discover significant additional information about Gwen, we will release a follow up episode to discuss the findings.  There are also some quotes containing profanity so parental discretion is advised.   March 2020, Gig Harbor Washington, Gwen Hasselquist is diagnosed with COVID 19, and goes missing.  Shortly after an obituary is posted in the local paper indicating that she passed away from the illness.  However, there are conflicting statements about the actual cause of her death.  Join us this week as we investigate the death of Gwen Hasselquest.

The Stanislaus National Forest is located in Tuolumne County California, near the northwestern part of Yosemite National Park. The forest is home to hundreds of miles of streams, rivers, and over a thousand miles of trails.  Yet, just beyond the forests beauty lies a dark and mysterious past.  From 2005 to 2016, three individuals have gone missing, without a trace, at the exact same location; Donnell Vista Point.  Join us this week as we investigate the Donnell Vista Point Disappearances.  (Episode 45)

Correction 1- During the location profile we correctly listed out the wildlife in this area of California.  However, we misspoke further in the episode in regards to Grizzlies in California.  One of the joys of doing the show live is you can't edit or re-record spots you mess up.  One of us asked if there were Grizzlies in this area and the other host replied no but stated there are Grizzlies in other parts of California.  This is incorrect.  There are no Grizzlies in California and there haven't been for decades.  Thank you to our listeners for pointing this out.    

Correction 2 - The first subject of the episode was correctly described as moving from over seas to Oklahoma and residing in Nevada at the time of her disappearance.  We correctly mentioned that she originally drove from Nevada to Donnell Vista Point.  However, further in the episode, one of the hosts misspoke and referenced Oklahoma multiple times when he should have said Nevada.  We apologize for the error and again thank our listeners for pointing this out.
