A desperate mother’s plea, a father’s mysterious journey, and a trail of unsettling clues—this is the case of Jared McColloch. In November 2023, Jared set out on a multi-state road trip to see his son in Illinois, but somewhere along the way, he vanished.

His abandoned truck, found with its doors open and his loyal dogs still inside, raised more questions than answers. A cryptic text, erratic movements, and a chilling final sighting paint a picture of a trip gone horribly wrong.

Was Jared running from something—or someone? And what really happened in the hours leading up to his disappearance? As the mystery deepens, one thing is certain: someone out there knows the truth. Could it be you?

We would like to give a special thank you to Tammie and Teri for speaking with us about Jared's case.

This episode is dedicated to Tammie, Jared and Jared's fur babies, Roxy and Rusty.

The San Gabriel Mountains, with their rugged terrain, dense woodlands, and towering peaks, call to adventurers seeking both physical and spiritual challenges. Offering solitude for rock climbers and awe-inspiring landscapes for hikers, these mountains are also steeped in ancient history, once home to Native American tribes like the Tongva. The mountains’ beauty is matched by their danger, as unpredictable weather and challenging trails have led to the disappearances of many, including actor Julian Sands. Known for his love of mountaineering, Sands vanished on a solo hike in January 2023, amidst treacherous conditions on Mount San Antonio. His tragic fate serves as a sobering reminder of the mountains' unforgiving nature.
