In 1982, Patty Vaughan vanished in the mountains of West Virginia. For more than a decade, the only story anyone heard was Doug Sager’s: that he dropped her at a truck stop along I-81 and never saw her again. But inside Doug’s own family, another story began to surface. His nephew, Ralph, claimed Patty never left at all—that he saw her body in the downstairs shower.
Decades later, hikers stumbled across human remains in the wilderness near Judy Gap. Could they belong to Patty? Or was there another victim hidden in those same mountains?
This episode unravels the competing stories, the silence that lasted for thirteen years, and the chilling discovery that raised even more questions. Two stories. Two endings. Only one can be true.
