With the storm of the decade headed towards the Pacific Northwest and Washington State, Kris and other hikers hesitated on whether to continue hiking the PCT. Ultimately, Kris was determined to hike Washington state in its entirety. After re-supplying in Packwood, on October 12, 2016, Kris started out on the trail near the White Pass trailhead and seemingly vanished into the woods. Thank you to Pickles, Sally, David, and Aaron who chatted with me for this episode.If you know anything about Kris' disappearance, please contact the Yakima County Sheriff's office at 509-574-2500.Support me on Patreon hereBring Kris Fowler Home Facebook Page---DISCLAIMER:The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are that of the creator and do not necessarily reflect that of any of the guests on this show.

On Mother’s Day, May 8, 2016, 34-year-old Kris Fowler set out the Pacific Crest Trail, a 2,653 mile hike stretching from Mexico to Canada, all through the west coast of the United States. But on October 12, with less than 400 miles to go on the trail, Kris, who had stopped in Packwood Washington for supplies, set off to resume the PCT near White Pass in the Cascade mountain range. Kris was hoping to get ahead of a brewing storm, one that people would later claim was the biggest Washington State had experienced in decades.  As other hikers left the trail to wait out the inclement weather, Kris, in his sandals, set off into the dense Washington wilderness and seemingly vanished into the thick wilderness of the Pacific Northwest.Support me on Patreon here.---DISCLAIMER:The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are that of the creator and do not necessarily reflect that of any of the guests on this show.

Derek Ritz, also known as Ritzy, disappeared at the age of 51. He was last seen at 3 a.m. on Dec. 31 at a home on Avonton Road in Sebringville, Ontario. The police investigation into Ritz's disappearance is ongoing, and no official conclusion has been reached. However, a private investigator from Please Bring Me Home, a Canadian organization, is actively working on the case. This investigator, who has been involved since the summer of 2020, believes they are close to uncovering the truth. The leading theory involves a small group of individuals who allegedly assaulted Ritz and disposed of his remains in various ways, making it difficult for the police to recover his body. Despite these theories and speculation, no charges have been laid. I spoke with Shelly Smith, a Stratford resident searching for Derek, about Derek's disappearance. I want to be clear: What Shelly and I discussed is speculative—at this time, no charges have been laid against any individuals. If you have any information about Derek's disappearance, your assistance is crucial. Please contact Please Bring Me Home at 226-702-2728 or visit the Justice for Ritzy Facebook Page for more information. Your involvement could be the key to solving this case. ---DISCLAIMER:The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the creator and do not necessarily reflect those of any of the guests on this show.

On this week's show, I attempt to shed some further light on the case of Camille Dotson, a woman who disappeared in Las Vegas in September of 1994. Camille was 30 years old at the time of her disappearance and is described as a white woman with hazel/brown eyes and brown hair, which she sometimes lightened. She stood at 5'7" and had a tattoo on her hip that reads "Cruz." Camille weighed between 125-145lbs with an athletic build. She had a recently broken nose and slightly discoloured teeth, and she was known to smoke Marlboro cigarettes. Additionally, she may have used the first names Nicole, Renee, or Kim and the last names Clarke or Diaz. On September 3rd, 1994, Camille was last seen walking on the 300 block of South Casino Blvd in Las Vegas after leaving the Clark County Detention Center on foot. This was the last confirmed sighting of her. Camille moved to Las Vegas as a single mom to escape an abusive marriage. She faced trauma, financial struggles, and difficult circumstances that led her to engage in survival sex work. At her lowest point, she battled homelessness and addiction. For this second part, I spoke to Gaby, a dedicated investigator who has spent years tirelessly researching and investigating Camille’s disappearance. Her expertise and commitment to this case have been invaluable, and it has even led to the police changing their file on Camille. Please visit the Facebook page and website for the latest updates on Camille's case. Ashley and her team are still searching for anyone who knew her during her time in Vegas (1991-1994). If you recognize her, please get in touch with them through the website or Facebook page. Remember, even the most minor details about her and her life could be the key to finding her. If you have any information about the disappearance of Camille Dotson, please call the Las Vegas Metro Police Department at (702) 828-3111.---Support the show on Patreon.Support the show on Buy Me a Coffee.---DISCLAIMER:The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the creator and do not necessarily reflect those of any of the guests on this show.

This week, I have a baffling case for you. The last time Natalie saw her sister, Katherine Berry, was when she was only a few months old. When Natalie became a teenager, she was told that Katherine was missing, and her heart was shattered. Natalie has dedicated many years to searching, praying, and thinking about Katherine. In December 2022, she discovered that a missing person's report was not on file for her. Undeterred, she gathered as much basic information as possible, drove to the Muskogee police station, and filed the missing person's report for her (Case#: 2023-10570, Namus: MP103987).Pinning down the exact date and circumstances surrounding Katherine's disappearance is tricky. Natalie thinks her sister Katherine went missing sometime around February of 1987 in Muskogee, Oklahoma. Katherine would have been a senior in high school and had just turned 18 years old.Natalie has spent the last year gathering more information about Katherine, sifting through rumours and facts, and speaking to whoever would speak to her. Natalie and her mother also contributed their DNA to a database to compare the DNA of unidentified remains across the country, but there has yet to be a match. If you have any information that might be helpful, contact Natalie through the "Where is Katherine Berry Facebook Page" or call the Muskogee Police Department at 918-683-8000.---Support the show on PatreonSupport the show on Buy Me a Coffee---DISCLAIMER:The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the creator and do not necessarily reflect those of any of the guests on this show.

Today's show focuses on the missing person, Ian Indridson. Ian is a 56-year-old Caucasian man who is five feet, eleven inches tall and has a slim build. He has salt-and-pepper hair, short at the time of his disappearance. On January 10, 2022, Ian disappeared in the Fairfield area of Victoria. At that time, he wore a dark-coloured Eddie Bauer sweater, sweatpants and rubber boots. I worked briefly with Ian, and in our few conversations, he always struck me as kind, smart and funny. I spoke to his wife, Gloria, about his uncharacteristic disappearance.If you have any information about where Ian may be and have yet to speak with officers, please call the Victoria Police at (250) 995-7654, extension 1. Alternatively, you can report anonymously by calling Greater Victoria Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or submitting a tip online on their website. I also encourage you to visit the "Find Ian Indridson" Facebook page and the GoFundMe link in the show notes. Gloria is using the GoFundMe to retain the services of a private investigator who is helping in the search for Ian.

Today, I have a very special guest: Amanda Knox.For those of you who don't know Amanda, she is an exoneree, journalist, public speaker, and author of the best-selling memoir, "Waiting to Be Heard." Between 2007 and 2015, Amanda spent nearly four years in an Italian prison and eight years on trial for a murder she didn't commit. The controversy over Amanda's case made international headlines and unwillingly thrust her into the public spotlight, where she was vilified and shamed.Amanda now works to shed light on the issues of wrongful conviction, truth-seeking, and public shaming. Her essays and journalism have been published in major publications like USA Today, the L.A. Times, The Atlantic, The Independent, The Free Press, the Seattle Times, and Seattle Magazine.Amanda is also the co-host of the podcast "Labyrinths." In Labyrinths, Amanda and her co-host Christopher Robinson delve into stories of getting lost and found again through compassionate interviews, philosophical rants, and playful debate with fascinating people.I invited Amanda on my show to talk about a five-part series she did in her Labyrinths podcast, "Blood Money," which looks at the history and evolution of true crime content and the many ethical dilemmas that appear when creating and consuming true crime."Blood Money" is a must-listen for any creator or consumer of accurate crime content. I was so grateful that Amanda agreed to come on the podcast to talk about how the series came about, her struggles with her own story being exploited by content creators, and how we can all strive to be more ethical when creating and consuming accurate crime content.Enjoy my interview with Amanda!---Support the show on PatreonSupport the show on Buy Me a Coffee---DISCLAIMER:The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the creator and do not necessarily reflect those of any of the guests on this show.
