The Jack family disappearance anchors tonight’s bulletin, as we revisit the 1989 mystery of an Indigenous family who vanished after a bizarre “logging camp” job offer near Prince George, British Columbia. Reese Haldon breaks down the bearded stranger’s suspicious pitch, the Highway 16 backdrop later known as the Highway of Tears, the chilling anonymous 1996 phone tip about a hidden grave, and why the case still matters in Canada’s wider crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous people.

We also investigate the baffling short-walk vanishing of Omaha college student Jason Jolkowski, new re-analysis of Voyager 2’s flyby that suggests Uranus may be less alien than we thought, and a massive sunspot complex drawing Carrington Event comparisons. Plus, reports coming in from a rural forest home shaken by thunderous, ground-level booms, a teen driver who remembers a fatal crash that “didn’t happen,” and new multi-angle UFO and light sightings from Moscow to a silent Connecticut field.

Hosted by Reese Haldon for Unexplained.co, this Unexplained News Update blends hard data with high strangeness. Did these lives and lights slip through ordinary cracks—or something stranger?
