  • Ruth Egnoski

    Sometime between the summer of 1964 and 1966, a young woman named Ruth Egnoski disappeared from Delavan, Wisconsin. No one can remember precisely when for sure. Depending on the year, she would have been between the ages of 18 and 20. Her family said that they reported Ruth missing to the local police, but they didn't do anything to search for her. The family hired a private investigator who said they were able to find that Ruth had taken a bus to Chicago. Over the years, some strange things happened. First, in the 1970s, the missing woman's social security card turned up in the office of a local school custodian. In the 1980s, luggage was found hidden in the ceiling in that same custodian's office, and the custodian happened to be Ruth's stepfather. Could there be a link? It took decades for this cold case to heat up, but it fizzled out again, and today remains unsolved.

    If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Ruth Egnoski, please call the Delavan Police Department at 262-728-6311.

  • Becky Marzo Part 2: The Box

    Last week, we brought you the first part of Becky Marzo’s story. On December 12, 2003, she went out for a night with friends at a club in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Becky was a 23-year-old woman living life and enjoying her freedom. She was working and finishing up her college degree. Her entire life was ahead of her. But there was a dark cloud cast over Becky’s happy life- her boyfriend Carl, an older man who had a history of abusing women. We left last week with Becky’s escape to Florida, and today we bring you the final part of Becky’s story about her return to Wisconsin and subsequent disappearance.

    If you have any information about the disappearance of Becky Marzo, please call the Milwaukee Police Department- Sensitive Crimes Division at (414) 935-7405.

  • Becky Marzo Part 1: Escape

    On the evening of December 12, 2003, 23-year-old Becky Marzo went out with friends to a local club in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. While at the club, her phone kept ringing, and her boyfriend was angry. He wanted her to come home, but Becky wanted to spend the night with her friends, so she turned off her phone. One of her friends asked if she wanted to go home, but Becky said she wanted to stay. When her friend dropped Becky off later that night at the home she shared with her boyfriend, no one knew they’d never see Becky again. Nearly 20 years later, her friends and family are still looking for answers about what happened to the young woman who has missed out on her entire life and those of the ones she loved most.

    If you have any information about the disappearance of Becky Marzo, please call the Milwaukee Police Department- Sensitive Crimes Division at (414) 935-7405.

  • Christopher Hoye

    By May of 2022, 33-year-old Christopher Hoye was living in Dixon, Missouri, with his wife and their blended family. They had relocated there from Illinois to try to live a more simple life homesteading. On May 19, 2022, things appeared to be going like any typical day on the farm. There were animals to tend to, and the kids were running around. Chris and his wife, Alysha, were divvying up their chores. Alysha says that she went outside to milk their goats, and while she was gone, Chris disappeared. Alysha said she heard his truck start up but wasn't close enough to see anything. When she finished up with the goats and returned to the house, something didn't seem right. Chris' truck was gone, the gate was left open, and Chris' wallet and phone were left at the house. Hoping that Chris had just left for a quick errand, Alysha waited, but Chris never returned. A couple of hours later, she decided to look for him and found his truck abandoned not far from their house. Despite extensive searches, no trace of Chris Hoye has ever been found.

    If you have any information about the disappearance of Chris Hoye, please call the Pulaski County Sheriff's Department at 573-774-6196. They also have a tip line at 573-774-7948.

  • Case Update: Roger Taylor - Coming Clean

    We first brought you Roger Taylor’s story in November 2020. When we first aired Roger’s story, we knew he was missing under strange circumstances. Roger was disabled, and the people at Roger’s home on the day he vanished had told some peculiar tales that didn’t seem to add up for someone in Roger’s condition. Roger’s daughter said she had received a text from her father’s phone saying he was lost and stuck. Later his car was found abandoned on a dead-end road. Where could Roger have gone? How far could he have made it considering his limited mobility? These questions lingered, and rumors swirled around the small town where Roger lived. And then, in August of 2022, a man turned himself in to police and told them he had murdered Roger in 2019. When we heard this man’s name, we recognized it. He was someone that Roger’s family had told us about in interviews. He told authorities that he had turned his life around, found God, and was ready to confess to what he had done. But today, some believe there is still more to this story waiting to be exposed.

    If you have any information about the disappearance of Roger Taylor, please call the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department at 662-369-2468.

  • Alexander Harris

    On June 14, 2021, 28-year-old Alex Harris left his father's home in Sierra Vista, Arizona, with a friend to go to a remote part of the Arizona desert near the city of Safford. The story was that he was out geo-caching with a friend, but something went terribly wrong, and Alex refused to get in the car and return home. When this friend showed up at Alex's dad's apartment two days later, the friend told Alex's dad that he had left Alex in the desert and didn't have a cell signal to call Alex's dad or the authorities. None of it made sense, no one knew this friend Alex had been out with well, and Alex's dad tried to find out where Alex was so he could go look for him. The friend fled and is now incarcerated on unrelated charges, but Alex has never been seen or heard from again.

    If you have any information about Alex's disappearance, please call the Cochise County Sheriff's Office at 520-432-9500 or 800-362-0812.

  • Cheretha Morrison

    On February 26, 2021, 38-year-old Cheretha Morrison was supposed to meet with her son after dropping her daughter off at school. Cheretha never showed up and didn’t answer her phone. It seemed as though something was wrong, but no one was sure. Later that day, it was discovered that Cheretha didn’t pick up her young daughter from school. And then, the other shoe dropped when Cheretha’s vehicle was found over 20 miles away from her residence on the other side of Chicago, Illinois. A substantial amount of cash was on the passenger seat, but there was no sign of Cheretha. The details surrounding Cheretha’s disappearance are murky and mysterious. At the time of her disappearance, she was several months pregnant, which adds another layer to the enigma of her disappearance, with few details and much speculation. What we do know is that all signs point to the fact that Cheretha did not disappear voluntarily.

    If you have any information about Cheretha’s disappearance, please call the Chicago Police Department Area 1 SVU at (312) 747-8380.

  • Beau Mann Part 4: The Focus

    In our fourth and final episode about the disappearance of Beau Mann, we are returning the focus to Beau. One thing that has become clear by this point in the series is that Beau is a complex person who has shown different sides of himself to various groups of people in his life. He wanted his family to see him as a success. Beau had close friendships with many people and shared his struggles with some of them. It also began to emerge that there may have been another group of people in his life that he kept hidden from the rest. When Beau disappeared, his family and close friends began to learn about some of these people in Beau’s circle and wondered why he never mentioned them. It was like learning about another side of him they didn’t realize was there. How much can you really ever know about another person, and how much can they keep hidden? This situation has left Beau’s loved ones trying to untangle a complicated web of people that don’t seem willing to help find Beau or tell them everything they know. 

    If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Beau Mann, please contact the LAPD Missing Persons Unit at 213-486-0260. Anyone wishing to remain anonymous should call the L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

    After production had concluded on our final episode about Beau Mann, we learned that Beau's remains had recently been recovered. This information, along with rumors, spread quickly over the weekend on social media before all of Beau's loved ones were informed and had a chance to release their own statement. For those reasons, we chose to hold off on posting about this until now. We will post further information once it is confirmed by law enforcement. We hope to bring you an update as quickly as we can. But for now, we will share the final episode of our series as it was produced before the news broke over the last 48 hours. Our thoughts are with all of Beau's loved ones at this time. We hope that finding Beau will bring much-needed answers and peace.

  • Beau Mann Part 3: The Divide

    Over the past two weeks, you learned about Beau Mann, how he disappeared, and a little bit about the divide that has developed since then. This week, we are taking a closer look at this divide. How did this happen, why, and how can we overcome this and come together to push for answers for Beau? At the center of this story is a bright, successful man who disappeared during the prime of his life. As we spoke with those who knew Beau, it felt that this divide was muddying the waters. It was making it difficult to figure out which facts were important. Why was the focus on his relationship with his fiance, who was more than 2000 miles away when Beau mysteriously vanished? This week, we will take you on our journey to find answers.

    If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Beau Mann, please contact the LAPD Missing Persons Unit at 213-486-0260. Anyone wishing to remain anonymous can call the L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

  • Beau Mann Part 2: Last Day

    Last week, we shared the first installment of Beau Mann’s story. You learned about Beau’s life and his struggles with addiction. Beau created the app, Sober Grid, to help people in recovery stay connected and access resources. But then, one day at the end of November 2021, Beau mysteriously vanished while traveling around Los Angeles. He made several stops that day while using the ride-share services Uber and Lyft. During his final ride, Beau had texted 911 through the in-app safety feature. They attempted to contact Beau to see if he needed assistance, but they were not able to connect with Beau. The Uber driver stated that he dropped Beau off at an address, but the resident whole lived there claimed she didn’t know anyone named Beau Mann. 

    In Part 1, we gave you a brief overview of the timeline of Beau’s last day. This case has a lot of twists and turns, along with a complex timeline. It is a lot to take in, so we decided to dedicate Part 2 to digging deeper into that timeline.

    If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Beau Mann, please contact the LAPD Missing Persons Unit at 213-486-0260. Anyone wishing to remain anonymous can call the L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
