  • 85. Chip Michael Campbell - USA

    52:48||Season 10, Ep. 85
    In this episode we examine the strange case of missing Florida native Chip Michael Campbell, who disappeared in mysterious circumstances in the city of Milton, on March 8th, 2016. Chip lived alone in his family home, his elderly father having recently suffered from a debilitating stroke. Chip had just acquired a new roommate, someone known to him, a person he cared for, but who was a known drug addict with a long history of associated criminal activity. She essentially took over Chip’s home, squatting there for weeks after he vanished and was potentially facilitating the production of methamphetamine at the property. This episode hears from Chip’s sisters Laura and Lesa, who delve deep into their family’s history and how a series of tragic events left their mark on Chip from a very young age. They describe how their brother was always someone who struggled to find his place in the world and explain why they believe their brother’s good nature was taken advantage of by opportunistic criminals, who more than likely had a hand in his disappearance. This episode is supported by Doe Network.

  • 83. Gabriel Scott Johnson - USA

    47:34||Season 9, Ep. 83
    In this episode we explore the enduring mystery of missing infant Gabriel Scott Johnson, whose fate has been unknown ever since he was kidnapped from his home in Tempe, Arizona in December 2009. Gabriel was abducted by his mother Elizabeth without his father Logan’s knowledge. Elizabeth’s alleged intention was to bring baby Gabriel to San Antonio, Texas, where, thanks to a loophole in state law, black market adoptions had become increasingly commonplace. Gabriel’s kidnapping made international news and sparked a manhunt spearheaded by the FBI. This episode hears from Gabriel’s great aunt Sandy. Following the untimely death of her sister, Sandy grew very close with her nephew Logan, so when Gabriel disappeared, she felt like it was her duty to do everything she possibly could to help. She brings us back to that fateful December day almost fifteen years ago, one that changed her family's lives forever and shares her thoughts about Elizabeth’s motivations and what she believes ultimately became of baby Gabriel. This episode is supported by Doe Network.

  • 82. Rio Boyd - USA

    29:48||Season 9, Ep. 82
    In this episode we cover the bewildering story of Rio Boyd, a 21 year old woman who mysteriously vanished in 2022 and whose family have been desperate for answers ever since. Rio was a bubbly, creative person, beloved by her family and friends, but just like the rest of us, she had her flaws. Hers were a history of drug and alcohol abuse which eventually resulted in Rio being sent away from her mother’s home in Oregon to live with her father in Spanaway, Washington. Her parents hoped that by putting some distance between Rio and some of the more negative influences in her orbit, that she’d have a better shot at a good life. This episode hears from Rio’s mother Kristi. She explains how, sadly, Rio’s new environment had its fair share of bad actors and her daughter soon learned that old habits die hard. Kristi also describes how in the weeks leading up to Rio’s disappearance, she couldn’t shake the feeling that she was being watched. Almost two years later, the only clue they have to go on is Rio’s mobile phone, found discarded by the side of the road a few hundred yards from her home. This episode is supported by Doe Network.

  • 80. Mackenzie Rae Marken - USA

    36:25||Season 9, Ep. 80
    In this episode we bring you the strange story of Mackenzie Rae Marken, a fourteen year old Wisconsinite, who vanished from her home in the city of Schofield, on October 11th, 2015. Almost ten years later, the authorities are no closer to learning what happened to her that day. Mackenzie was fiercely independent, someone who was in a major hurry to grow up and see what the world outside Wisconsin had to offer her. She was also a digital native, a member of the first generation to grow up online, continually finding new ways to express herself via the internet. In fact, there are those who believe that Mackenzie’s social media activity, specifically the strangers we now know she was in contact with in the weeks and months before she vanished, played a role in her disappearance. This episode hears from Mackenzie’s childhood friend Christina. Mackenzie was the first friend Christina made when she moved to Wisconsin from Oklahoma and the pair bonded over their shared love for emo music, youtube personalities and flannel shirts. Christina walks us through the events leading up Mackenzie’s disappearance, her own personal theories about what might have happened to her and how it felt to be interrogated by the police as a fourteen year old. This episode is supported by Doe Network.

  • 79. Ahren Barnard - USA

    42:53||Season 9, Ep. 79
    In this episode we tell the baffling story of the disappearance of Ahren Benjamin Barnard. Ahren Benjamin Barnard, known as Benj to many, was 35 years old when he vanished from Boise, Idaho. Ahren was a born entrepreneur, having started his first business at the age of  21, an exotic fish store which he named Tanks A Lot. By the time he vanished, Ahren had worked as a DJ, a pawn broker and a gun salesman and was looking into starting a limousine business. On the night of December 4th, 2004, Ahren dropped off his son with the child's mother at the McDonalds on the corner of Cole Rd and Overland Rd in central Boise. He was never seen again. This episode hears from Ahren’s mother Vicki who has done everything she can to keep the search for her son alive for the past two decades. She walks us through the investigation into his disappearance, her initially contentious relationship with the police and how one shady figure in her son’s life in particular, may have far more to do with the case than he’s led the authorities to believe. This episode is supported by Doe Network.
