What happens when a summer day on the river turns into every family's worst nightmare? In this gripping true story, you'll hear firsthand accounts of the terrifying moment Enrique — a 24-year-old college student affectionately known as Gordo — vanished beneath the surface of Oregon’s Siuslaw River and didn’t come back up. With no cell service, no emergency response nearby, and the clock ticking, panic swept through the crowd. Told through the voices of his sister Angie and a bystander named Ann, this episode unpacks the emotional rollercoaster of a near-fatal drowning and the heroic efforts of complete strangers who fought to save him.

Join Emily Jones and Holly Worthington as they dive into this heart wrenching story of a child abduction. Five-year-old Bella was taken by someone her family trusted — a man they never expected, their father's roommate: Bill Mix. In a matter of moments, a normal day turned into every parent’s worst nightmare. As the Amber Alert spread across California and panic set in, one woman hundreds of miles away — Leisa Hilton in Utah — felt something was deeply wrong.
