Missing: Patricia Vaughan Pt. 5 - When Silence Breaks
Over the last few weeks, rumors have torn through Hardy County—bones in a backyard, a surgical plate, and whispers that eighteen-year-old Patricia “Patty” Vaughan may have finally been found.
But rumors aren’t answers.
In Episode 5, Joey Grimes corrects the record—publicly and personally—then follows the evidence and testimony where it actually leads: into the silence that swallowed Patty’s name, into one of the earliest known survivor accounts connected to Doug Sager, and into the disturbing discovery along Route 259 that reignited this case.
This episode includes:
- Major factual corrections about Patty’s background and identifying details
- Why so many locals say they never even heard Patty’s name until now
- An early survivor account that predates Patty—showing Doug’s pattern years earlier
- A clear breakdown of what’s confirmed (and what is not) regarding the bones, plate, and ongoing testing
- A witness who lived beside Doug’s former land—and what he learned about the chicken houses tied to multiple accounts
This episode includes discussion of sexual assault, coercion, grooming, violence, and traumatic experiences. Listener discretion advised.
