May 30, 2025 Episode 494: There Is Hope, Pt. 2
On Feb. 7, 2020, this podcast featured a disappearance that I don't
think anybody believed would be resolved in our lifetimes. If only
for the reason that it's oldest case this podcast has covered. Yet,
in 2024, we discovered we were wrong. It got solved. Today I look at
how that happened and why this should give hope to thousands of
families.
