00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,383
(film reeling)

2
00:00:07,731 --> 00:00:10,314
(film reeling)

3
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:15,173
(film reel progressing)

4
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,680
(suspenseful music)

5
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:27,000
[Daniel] The disappearance

6
00:00:27,001 --> 00:00:30,569
of outdoorsman Gary
Hinge stunned the nation

7
00:00:30,570 --> 00:00:32,579
when we shared his story.

8
00:00:32,580 --> 00:00:36,276
It captured the hearts
and fears of millions

9
00:00:36,277 --> 00:00:38,729
and we've had everyone from park rangers

10
00:00:38,730 --> 00:00:42,629
to paratroopers offer to
help find his remains.

11
00:00:42,630 --> 00:00:44,789
And yes, you can trust

12
00:00:44,790 --> 00:00:46,893
that we are still following that story.

13
00:00:47,850 --> 00:00:51,869
Thanks to tips from viewers
who also live in the area,

14
00:00:51,870 --> 00:00:55,529
we've made another stunning discovery.

15
00:00:55,530 --> 00:00:58,769
Just over a year after Gary went missing,

16
00:00:58,770 --> 00:01:02,939
in the late night hours
of September 28th, 2018

17
00:01:02,940 --> 00:01:05,249
the young woman was found dead

18
00:01:05,250 --> 00:01:07,623
in her locked home off of Highway 50.

19
00:01:08,670 --> 00:01:12,089
Hours later, another woman would vanish

20
00:01:12,090 --> 00:01:15,303
along the same stretch
of remote desert highway.

21
00:01:16,470 --> 00:01:19,390
Once I started looking
into this I realized

22
00:01:20,790 --> 00:01:24,779
all of this is part of a bigger mystery

23
00:01:24,780 --> 00:01:28,019
than I could have ever imagined

24
00:01:28,020 --> 00:01:32,095
and it was unfolding right in front of us.

25
00:01:32,096 --> 00:01:34,763
(intense music)

26
00:01:47,368 --> 00:01:50,157
(distant crying)

27
00:03:09,684 --> 00:03:12,351
(intense music)

28
00:03:25,453 --> 00:03:28,120
(intense music)

29
00:03:40,015 --> 00:03:42,682
(intense music)

30
00:04:04,164 --> 00:04:06,914
(witch cackling)

31
00:04:08,204 --> 00:04:10,182
(calm music)

32
00:04:10,183 --> 00:04:11,849
I first heard about
this when I was working

33
00:04:11,850 --> 00:04:15,719
in Northern Nevada on a different
story at the Hotel Nevada.

34
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,599
And I was waiting for the elevator

35
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,759
in the lobby and it's an old hotel

36
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,489
so, you know, the elevator takes a while.

37
00:04:23,490 --> 00:04:27,179
And I noticed this woman is staring at me

38
00:04:27,180 --> 00:04:31,199
and right when the doors
open she rushes over to me

39
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,519
and she tells me, I know who you are

40
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,429
and you have to do a story

41
00:04:38,430 --> 00:04:41,093
on what happened to that girl Minerva.

42
00:04:41,094 --> 00:04:44,094
(suspenseful music)

43
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,119
So we stepped aside

44
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,579
and I let the elevator doors close

45
00:04:50,580 --> 00:04:52,983
and I listened to what she had to say.

46
00:04:53,940 --> 00:04:57,479
Turns out she was a
former 9-1-1 dispatcher

47
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,965
from the neighboring
town of Cypress, Nevada,

48
00:05:00,966 --> 00:05:03,119
(suspenseful music)

49
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,363
where this event had taken place.

50
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,619
She rambled on for quite a bit

51
00:05:10,620 --> 00:05:13,709
but what really caught my attention,

52
00:05:13,710 --> 00:05:15,456
was when she said,

53
00:05:15,457 --> 00:05:19,019
"When her friend came to
collect her belongings,

54
00:05:19,020 --> 00:05:24,020
they accidentally gave her
all the paintings and tapes."

55
00:05:24,857 --> 00:05:27,774
(person screaming)

56
00:05:31,068 --> 00:05:33,239
(crickets chirping)

57
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,409
The night this all happened

58
00:05:34,410 --> 00:05:37,379
it was only my second
week living in Cypress.

59
00:05:37,380 --> 00:05:40,233
I had moved there just for
this open E-M-T position.

60
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,309
My old job, it was working
for a private company

61
00:05:44,310 --> 00:05:47,099
and it just didn't have the excitement

62
00:05:47,100 --> 00:05:49,919
that you think you're
gonna get when you go

63
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,689
to school to become an E-M-T

64
00:05:51,690 --> 00:05:53,279
and work on an ambulance.

65
00:05:53,280 --> 00:05:57,179
On paper, Cypress is the
perfect place for a guy like me.

66
00:05:57,180 --> 00:05:58,829
I love mountain biking, I love climbing,

67
00:05:58,830 --> 00:06:01,589
I love camping, I love hiking.

68
00:06:01,590 --> 00:06:02,590
But,

69
00:06:04,050 --> 00:06:06,453
by the time the sun came up the next day,

70
00:06:08,190 --> 00:06:11,879
I was looking for another
job in a new town.

71
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,729
[Dolly] After what happened
to that missing hiker,

72
00:06:14,730 --> 00:06:17,129
we were watching it on TV

73
00:06:17,130 --> 00:06:19,439
and, you know, he had the video.

74
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,310
As soon as my husband saw it

75
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,561
he said to me, "Oh my god, they're back."

76
00:06:27,562 --> 00:06:29,879
(intense music)

77
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,259
[Luke] In the ambulance
on the way out there.

78
00:06:31,260 --> 00:06:33,419
We were talking about
how weird it would be

79
00:06:33,420 --> 00:06:34,934
to live out there.

80
00:06:34,935 --> 00:06:36,869
(suspenseful music)

81
00:06:36,870 --> 00:06:38,833
So creepy and unsettling.

82
00:06:38,834 --> 00:06:41,219
(ominous music)

83
00:06:41,220 --> 00:06:42,220
As we pulled up,

84
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,019
the scene was bizarre.

85
00:06:46,020 --> 00:06:47,279
The thing I remember the most,

86
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:50,433
is the position her body was in.

87
00:06:51,284 --> 00:06:53,951
(intense music)

88
00:06:55,972 --> 00:06:58,555
(crows cawing)

89
00:07:00,023 --> 00:07:02,422
(crows cawing)

90
00:07:02,423 --> 00:07:03,929
So my buddy is working on the patient

91
00:07:03,930 --> 00:07:07,289
and I go into the trailer to try

92
00:07:07,290 --> 00:07:08,699
to see what medication I can find,

93
00:07:08,700 --> 00:07:11,459
see if we can get a
medical history on her,

94
00:07:11,460 --> 00:07:13,049
see how we can treat her better.

95
00:07:13,050 --> 00:07:14,050
And, um

96
00:07:15,330 --> 00:07:18,899
yeah, only way I can
describe the feeling is that,

97
00:07:18,900 --> 00:07:20,879
it felt like when I was still in training

98
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,889
and we went to a call

99
00:07:22,890 --> 00:07:24,749
and it was at a warehouse

100
00:07:24,750 --> 00:07:28,199
and it was a stabbing victim and the cops

101
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,939
they told us, "Alright, stay
back a little, treat them,

102
00:07:32,940 --> 00:07:37,739
but the suspect is still at large.

103
00:07:37,740 --> 00:07:40,469
We're searching the warehouse currently."

104
00:07:40,470 --> 00:07:45,470
And I was just nonstop
on edge watching my back.

105
00:07:46,110 --> 00:07:50,373
That's the only way I could
really describe that feeling.

106
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,033
So I go in and I'm searching and,

107
00:07:55,650 --> 00:07:57,903
it was weird, it was like empty.

108
00:08:00,510 --> 00:08:02,800
I mean I found some medication

109
00:08:04,110 --> 00:08:07,323
but I was just thinking
like, who is this woman?

110
00:08:08,550 --> 00:08:10,019
[Dolly] Everybody keeps talking

111
00:08:10,020 --> 00:08:14,283
about this one woman that was a student.

112
00:08:15,312 --> 00:08:18,690
And you know, I was assuming that,

113
00:08:19,770 --> 00:08:22,803
you know, she was a high
school student, you know,

114
00:08:24,330 --> 00:08:26,039
but it turns out

115
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,979
that she was in her thirties

116
00:08:28,980 --> 00:08:31,383
and she was taking a college course.

117
00:08:33,780 --> 00:08:35,519
[Gal] I had to track down this friend

118
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,209
that the police just gave evidence to.

119
00:08:39,210 --> 00:08:41,039
And as I was doing that,

120
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,153
I found out that Minerva goes by Minnie.

121
00:08:46,650 --> 00:08:49,829
[Cathy]
- This all started when we were

122
00:08:49,830 --> 00:08:52,259
on a camping trip in upstate New York.

123
00:08:52,260 --> 00:08:54,509
The woman who ran the campgrounds,

124
00:08:54,510 --> 00:08:58,019
she ended up being a geologist

125
00:08:58,020 --> 00:09:00,959
and the more she would
talk about her work,

126
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,899
you could just see Minnie's eyes light up.

127
00:09:03,900 --> 00:09:05,729
She became enthralled

128
00:09:05,730 --> 00:09:08,519
with everything that
this woman was saying.

129
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,679
You know, this woman saw this

130
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:13,349
and said this is great,

131
00:09:13,350 --> 00:09:14,759
you know, you should take a class.

132
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:15,839
[Gal] After the camping trip

133
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,529
and meeting this woman
that really inspired her,

134
00:09:19,530 --> 00:09:22,649
she started to take
class at Brooklyn College

135
00:09:22,650 --> 00:09:25,499
and she met a former student who told her

136
00:09:25,500 --> 00:09:28,877
about this semester in Cypress, Nevada.

137
00:09:28,878 --> 00:09:31,889
(suspenseful music)

138
00:09:31,890 --> 00:09:35,747
The semester in Nevada
was basically a program

139
00:09:35,748 --> 00:09:37,109
uh

140
00:09:37,110 --> 00:09:42,110
That worked with various
colleges and universities

141
00:09:42,210 --> 00:09:43,589
and would bring students out

142
00:09:43,590 --> 00:09:46,529
to a town called Cypress,
Nevada where there was

143
00:09:46,530 --> 00:09:48,569
an actual working mine

144
00:09:48,570 --> 00:09:51,779
and the students would work

145
00:09:51,780 --> 00:09:55,049
in the field with actual geologists.

146
00:09:55,050 --> 00:09:57,899
At the time, Cathy
was working as a nurse

147
00:09:57,900 --> 00:10:00,509
at the Beth Israel
Hospital in New York City.

148
00:10:00,510 --> 00:10:03,029
She was working the night shift

149
00:10:03,030 --> 00:10:06,959
in the E-R and these are 12 hour shifts.

150
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,179
So during the day she was sleeping

151
00:10:09,180 --> 00:10:11,099
but she wanted to let Minerva know

152
00:10:11,100 --> 00:10:12,239
that she was there for her

153
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,969
that she supported her in this
decision to go to Cypress.

154
00:10:14,970 --> 00:10:17,489
So they would send video messages back

155
00:10:17,490 --> 00:10:18,899
and forth to each other.

156
00:10:18,900 --> 00:10:20,909
Anyway, New York misses you.

157
00:10:20,910 --> 00:10:22,833
Here, I'll show you where I am.

158
00:10:23,850 --> 00:10:25,799
[Gal] And it's through these videos

159
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,529
that we are able to get a glimpse

160
00:10:28,530 --> 00:10:31,559
of Minnie in the last days of her life.

161
00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:33,419
[Cathy] She gets to Cypress

162
00:10:33,420 --> 00:10:36,899
and there's not a space for her there.

163
00:10:36,900 --> 00:10:40,049
Somewhere along the line,
someone dropped the ball

164
00:10:40,050 --> 00:10:43,199
and they did not account for her.

165
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,569
So there's literally not a space

166
00:10:45,570 --> 00:10:50,519
for her in the dorms,
it's packed as it is.

167
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,029
So their solution was to put her

168
00:10:54,030 --> 00:10:56,729
in this single wide trailer

169
00:10:56,730 --> 00:10:59,189
that the school were
planning to convert it

170
00:10:59,190 --> 00:11:00,599
into offices at some point,

171
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,600
but for the time being they
gave it to her as housing.

172
00:11:06,210 --> 00:11:08,609
[Lenny] When she lived
here in this trailer,

173
00:11:08,610 --> 00:11:12,360
that trailer was sitting
on this cement slab.

174
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,263
Not to my knowledge.

175
00:11:43,805 --> 00:11:45,269
(calm music)

176
00:11:45,270 --> 00:11:48,089
[Dolly] So shortly after, you know,

177
00:11:48,090 --> 00:11:50,219
my husband and I took over the ranch.

178
00:11:50,220 --> 00:11:55,077
My father used to allow
these hunters to come hunt

179
00:11:55,078 --> 00:11:56,939
on our land.

180
00:11:56,940 --> 00:12:00,149
For years, they were hunting on our land

181
00:12:00,150 --> 00:12:04,439
and what happened was
apparently there was a hunter

182
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,139
that really didn't know what
he was doing when it came

183
00:12:07,140 --> 00:12:10,621
to hunting and shooting guns
and my husband was shot.

184
00:12:10,622 --> 00:12:12,239
(gun firing)

185
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,069
Fortunately he didn't kill him,

186
00:12:14,070 --> 00:12:18,449
so it was no longer okay with us.

187
00:12:18,450 --> 00:12:21,149
So I had to go to the hunters, you know,

188
00:12:21,150 --> 00:12:24,029
to let them know that
they can no longer hunt

189
00:12:24,030 --> 00:12:25,739
on our land anymore.

190
00:12:25,740 --> 00:12:29,429
And they were really,
really pissed about it.

191
00:12:29,430 --> 00:12:33,328
They went and cut like one of my fences

192
00:12:33,329 --> 00:12:38,329
and then there uh was a
sheep pen where, you know,

193
00:12:38,670 --> 00:12:42,899
the little gate that kept it
closed was destroyed, you know?

194
00:12:42,900 --> 00:12:46,889
So I called the police
and um they told me though

195
00:12:46,890 --> 00:12:51,890
that they couldn't do anything
until I get actual proof.

196
00:12:52,982 --> 00:12:55,049
(intense music)

197
00:12:55,050 --> 00:12:57,666
There was this one night my husband and I,

198
00:12:57,667 --> 00:12:59,999
you know, went to bed early,

199
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,530
we heard noises coming
from down in the barn.

200
00:13:03,531 --> 00:13:06,959
So my husband, you know, got the camera

201
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,929
and said, "Okay I'm gonna
get, you know, the proof now."

202
00:13:09,930 --> 00:13:14,759
And he went out there
but they weren't there.

203
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,516
And then all of a sudden
he looked further up

204
00:13:17,517 --> 00:13:19,959
and he saw them running.

205
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,627
(intense music)

206
00:13:42,180 --> 00:13:45,209
No, it's sitting off to the side

207
00:13:45,210 --> 00:13:47,009
because it's getting ready for demolition

208
00:13:47,010 --> 00:13:50,760
and the company doesn't
want anybody near it.

209
00:14:03,251 --> 00:14:05,189
(slow music)

210
00:14:05,190 --> 00:14:06,869
[Joseph] When I first
moved into this area,

211
00:14:06,870 --> 00:14:09,530
there was a a housing shortage

212
00:14:09,531 --> 00:14:11,789
and I stayed in my car for a while

213
00:14:11,790 --> 00:14:15,719
and one afternoon as I was
on my way home from work.

214
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,789
I happened to find this house.

215
00:14:17,790 --> 00:14:21,181
It's a little yellow house
about five miles out of town.

216
00:14:21,182 --> 00:14:25,469
I found that it was
empty, that it was livable

217
00:14:25,470 --> 00:14:27,419
and I was able to uh find the owners

218
00:14:27,420 --> 00:14:29,973
and I was able to rent
the house from them.

219
00:14:30,930 --> 00:14:34,259
They helped me unload all
my stuff I had in a trailer

220
00:14:34,260 --> 00:14:37,349
and we spent most of the day
getting that stuff moved in

221
00:14:37,350 --> 00:14:40,919
and get settled in and by
the time I got all done

222
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,323
and everything it was dark when they left.

223
00:14:44,312 --> 00:14:46,979
(slow music)

224
00:14:46,980 --> 00:14:49,079
And as I had started
settling into the house

225
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,689
and sitting back and
relaxing a little bit,

226
00:14:51,690 --> 00:14:53,489
(intense music)

227
00:14:53,490 --> 00:14:55,349
I started getting a really funny feeling

228
00:14:55,350 --> 00:14:56,879
like there something was just outta place

229
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,080
and I couldn't quite
figure out what it was.

230
00:15:00,690 --> 00:15:03,149
One night, I was uh, I went to bed

231
00:15:03,150 --> 00:15:04,630
and I had fallen asleep

232
00:15:06,450 --> 00:15:10,199
and all of a sudden my dog woke me up.

233
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,599
He was just growling and snarling

234
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,123
and at over at the front door.

235
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,929
I got up and went over to the door

236
00:15:18,930 --> 00:15:21,580
thought maybe somebody had
broke down on the highway.

237
00:15:22,890 --> 00:15:24,509
I opened up the door

238
00:15:24,510 --> 00:15:27,239
and the dog was just sitting there barking

239
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,459
and growling and really
snarling and looking up,

240
00:15:29,460 --> 00:15:31,810
like he was standing
there looking at somebody.

241
00:15:32,820 --> 00:15:34,588
There was nobody there.

242
00:15:34,589 --> 00:15:37,709
(suspenseful music)

243
00:15:37,710 --> 00:15:39,509
Slowly worked his way out

244
00:15:39,510 --> 00:15:42,195
on the porch and out into the yard.

245
00:15:42,196 --> 00:15:44,309
He is just like he was chasing them off

246
00:15:44,310 --> 00:15:46,555
and he's looking up and
there was nobody there.

247
00:15:46,556 --> 00:15:49,379
(intense music)

248
00:15:49,380 --> 00:15:50,380
[Minnie] Hey girl!

249
00:15:51,330 --> 00:15:53,500
Welcome to Nevada

250
00:15:54,510 --> 00:15:58,803
and my semi furnished single unit,

251
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,228
slash trailer.

252
00:16:02,229 --> 00:16:03,779
Um

253
00:16:03,780 --> 00:16:04,953
Yeah, so,

254
00:16:05,850 --> 00:16:09,767
I was definitely excited
not to have a roommate

255
00:16:19,020 --> 00:16:22,383
Watching the first video
that she sends Kathy.

256
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,279
I have to stop and think,

257
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,799
why she even was living in that trailer?

258
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,869
It wasn't ready for
anyone to be living in.

259
00:16:30,870 --> 00:16:32,909
I mean, construction was still happening.

260
00:16:32,910 --> 00:16:35,943
There's sheet plastic in the living room.

261
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:38,273
All right girl,

262
00:16:38,274 --> 00:16:39,360
let me know what you think.

263
00:16:40,590 --> 00:16:42,423
Miss you, love you.

264
00:16:44,670 --> 00:16:47,249
You're gonna have to visit soon.

265
00:16:47,250 --> 00:16:48,329
Talk to you soon.

266
00:16:48,330 --> 00:16:49,402
All righty, bye.

267
00:16:49,403 --> 00:16:50,236
(lips kissing)

268
00:16:50,237 --> 00:16:52,109
When she turns the camera to herself,

269
00:16:52,110 --> 00:16:54,933
you could just see she was beaming.

270
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,889
I was able to relax.

271
00:16:58,890 --> 00:17:01,383
You know she's, she's fine,
she's gonna be fine there.

272
00:17:02,463 --> 00:17:05,130
(intense music)

273
00:17:08,023 --> 00:17:09,486
(crickets chirping)

274
00:17:09,487 --> 00:17:12,555
(footsteps)

275
00:17:12,556 --> 00:17:15,415
(crickets chirping)

276
00:17:15,416 --> 00:17:18,166
(distant, undecipherable voices)

277
00:17:20,746 --> 00:17:21,720
[Gal] What he told us

278
00:17:21,721 --> 00:17:26,160
that his reason why Minnie
thought he was so weird-

279
00:17:30,090 --> 00:17:33,753
Was... pretty chilling.

280
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:36,244
And I just got into bed

281
00:17:36,245 --> 00:17:40,049
and I can start hearing
this uh noise outside

282
00:17:40,050 --> 00:17:41,579
and I sat up, listened for moment,

283
00:17:41,580 --> 00:17:43,619
and realized it was a, it was an owl

284
00:17:43,620 --> 00:17:44,920
and I was out in the tree.

285
00:17:47,509 --> 00:17:50,849
So I went out there and grabbed some rocks

286
00:17:50,850 --> 00:17:51,780
as I went around there

287
00:17:51,781 --> 00:17:53,579
to the side of the house
where the tree was at

288
00:17:53,580 --> 00:17:55,829
and started throwing rocks up there

289
00:17:55,830 --> 00:17:58,383
and started yelling a little
bit and cussing at it and

290
00:18:01,177 --> 00:18:02,879
I started hearing this noise coming down

291
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:04,226
from up on the mountain.

292
00:18:04,227 --> 00:18:06,894
(intense music)

293
00:18:09,570 --> 00:18:11,489
In a way I sounded like a woman singing

294
00:18:11,490 --> 00:18:13,229
but it wasn't quite a singing voice

295
00:18:13,230 --> 00:18:14,230
it was just a,

296
00:18:15,930 --> 00:18:17,694
a real odd sound.

297
00:18:17,695 --> 00:18:20,249
It was sort of like be
a high pitch then low

298
00:18:20,250 --> 00:18:23,230
and then just different
sounds coming down and

299
00:18:24,951 --> 00:18:27,299
and it would just fade
in and out and echoing.

300
00:18:27,300 --> 00:18:28,589
And I couldn't quite really tell

301
00:18:28,590 --> 00:18:29,969
where it was coming out
'cause it just sounded

302
00:18:29,970 --> 00:18:31,896
like it was coming from different places.

303
00:18:31,897 --> 00:18:34,169
(crickets chirping)

304
00:18:34,170 --> 00:18:37,619
I get a phone call from my landlord

305
00:18:37,620 --> 00:18:39,569
and he tells me that
there's gonna be a lady

306
00:18:39,570 --> 00:18:41,669
that's gonna move into the
trailer next door to me

307
00:18:41,670 --> 00:18:45,689
and then the next day this
lady moves in, this geologist,

308
00:18:45,690 --> 00:18:49,000
and I go over there and
welcomed her to the area and

309
00:18:49,972 --> 00:18:51,209
and while we were sitting there talking,

310
00:18:51,210 --> 00:18:53,729
I started telling her
about this weird sound

311
00:18:53,730 --> 00:18:56,459
I heard coming down from
the top of the hill there.

312
00:18:56,460 --> 00:18:58,469
And she was just sitting
there looking at me like,

313
00:18:58,470 --> 00:19:00,569
I was just, like, I flipped my lid,

314
00:19:00,570 --> 00:19:01,769
you know, she just thought I was,

315
00:19:01,770 --> 00:19:04,776
looked like, looking at me
like I was totally crazy.

316
00:19:04,777 --> 00:19:07,444
(intense music)

317
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,399
Whenever I started getting this feeling

318
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:12,993
that I was being watched,

319
00:19:13,860 --> 00:19:17,159
I would just start
getting physically sick.

320
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,619
I would get really nauseous

321
00:19:19,620 --> 00:19:21,359
and it would just get worse

322
00:19:21,360 --> 00:19:24,163
and worse and worse as time went on.

323
00:19:24,164 --> 00:19:27,299
(intense music)

324
00:19:27,300 --> 00:19:29,189
[Gal] Almost immediately she starts

325
00:19:29,190 --> 00:19:31,743
to have these really
odd physical symptoms.

326
00:19:32,910 --> 00:19:34,655
Look no hands!

327
00:19:34,656 --> 00:19:36,929
I got a tripod at the dollar store

328
00:19:36,930 --> 00:19:38,819
and it's holding my fancy phone so

329
00:19:38,820 --> 00:19:40,619
that I can do fun stuff,

330
00:19:40,620 --> 00:19:42,689
like open this wine and talk to you.

331
00:19:42,690 --> 00:19:44,519
My eyes are starting to bug me.

332
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,539
I can't breathe at night.

333
00:19:45,540 --> 00:19:48,989
I keep waking up and
I'm just kind of foggy.

334
00:19:48,990 --> 00:19:51,232
I like, I can't fall asleep,

335
00:19:51,233 --> 00:19:52,919
I can't wake up.

336
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,463
When I lay down and go to sleep
I can hear my heart beating.

337
00:19:57,450 --> 00:19:58,979
And then when I was home earlier,

338
00:19:58,980 --> 00:20:01,680
there were some things that
were not where I left them

339
00:20:02,610 --> 00:20:05,459
and a couple of things
that I just couldn't find.

340
00:20:05,460 --> 00:20:06,839
Whatever was going on,

341
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:11,839
her physical state started to deteriorate.

342
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:16,709
So I'm going to see a doctor
in the next town tomorrow.

343
00:20:16,710 --> 00:20:20,129
He recommended she go back
to where she was staying

344
00:20:20,130 --> 00:20:24,119
in this trailer and possibly
look for black mold.

345
00:20:24,120 --> 00:20:25,949
[Cathy] It didn't even occur to me

346
00:20:25,950 --> 00:20:27,989
but it's the perfect explanation

347
00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:30,509
for all of her symptoms and everything.

348
00:20:30,510 --> 00:20:34,079
And I said, "You really need
to go look for this right now,

349
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,132
like inspect your trailer right now."

350
00:20:37,133 --> 00:20:39,800
(intense music)

351
00:20:48,810 --> 00:20:49,919
[Gal] She goes back to her trailer

352
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,233
and while she's looking
for this black mold, um

353
00:20:53,370 --> 00:20:56,129
she finds this canvas bag.

354
00:20:56,130 --> 00:20:58,360
At the time it wasn't really a big deal

355
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:00,539
because we were way more focused

356
00:21:00,540 --> 00:21:01,559
on her health at that point.

357
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,289
So I said, "Okay fine, send
me some pictures of it later

358
00:21:04,290 --> 00:21:06,389
but let's keep inspecting your place"

359
00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:10,589
and uh tore the place apart

360
00:21:10,590 --> 00:21:11,643
and there is no mold.

361
00:21:13,350 --> 00:21:14,609
This is the bag

362
00:21:14,610 --> 00:21:17,159
that police would end up giving Kathy,

363
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,309
thinking it was part
of Minnie's belongings

364
00:21:20,310 --> 00:21:22,610
and the contents in this bag-

365
00:21:22,611 --> 00:21:24,842
(intense music)

366
00:21:24,843 --> 00:21:27,676
(water streaming)

367
00:21:32,485 --> 00:21:35,185
(footsteps)

368
00:21:39,243 --> 00:21:41,060
(intense music)

369
00:21:59,904 --> 00:22:02,571
(intense music)

370
00:22:26,193 --> 00:22:29,026
(camera jostling)

371
00:22:32,500 --> 00:22:34,109
(light music)

372
00:22:34,110 --> 00:22:38,579
[Gal] Cathy is devastated
over the loss of her best friend

373
00:22:38,580 --> 00:22:42,839
which is actually more of a sister to her.

374
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,629
She knew something had to be done.

375
00:22:45,630 --> 00:22:49,932
That's when she decided to
grab Minnie's belongings.

376
00:22:49,933 --> 00:22:50,766
I went through it just

377
00:22:50,767 --> 00:22:53,639
to see if there was
anything that could help us.

378
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,429
And she found the canvas bag

379
00:22:56,430 --> 00:23:01,430
and inside she finds a really old tape

380
00:23:02,010 --> 00:23:06,886
and some really bizarre paintings.

381
00:23:06,887 --> 00:23:09,554
(ominous music)

382
00:23:42,450 --> 00:23:45,606
And she also found her phone.

383
00:23:45,607 --> 00:23:46,619
(low music)

384
00:23:46,620 --> 00:23:50,279
Cathy and Minnie are both
avid podcast listeners

385
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,649
and they especially love this one,

386
00:23:52,650 --> 00:23:56,369
where the host always
tells their listeners

387
00:23:56,370 --> 00:23:59,969
to make an if I go missing folder.

388
00:23:59,970 --> 00:24:02,459
And basically what's in
this folder is, you know,

389
00:24:02,460 --> 00:24:05,159
your passcodes, your
social security number,

390
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,319
anything that someone would need

391
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,139
to basically crack open your life

392
00:24:10,140 --> 00:24:13,589
and you entrust it to one person.

393
00:24:13,590 --> 00:24:15,299
And because of this,

394
00:24:15,300 --> 00:24:18,779
Cathy has Minnie's cell phone passcode.

395
00:24:18,780 --> 00:24:21,432
So she's able to open her phone

396
00:24:21,433 --> 00:24:23,683
(intense music)

397
00:24:23,684 --> 00:24:26,770
[Minnie] Safety checklist,
verification process.

398
00:24:26,771 --> 00:24:28,589
There are three levels of control

399
00:24:28,590 --> 00:24:31,379
and each requires a verification process

400
00:24:31,380 --> 00:24:34,589
to be performed by either an instructor,

401
00:24:34,590 --> 00:24:36,873
a supervisor or manager.

402
00:24:37,863 --> 00:24:40,859
(low music)

403
00:24:40,860 --> 00:24:44,969
Areas of safety for ongoing improvements.

404
00:24:44,970 --> 00:24:47,763
There are specific tools for the-

405
00:24:49,049 --> 00:24:51,716
(pages turning)

406
00:24:57,940 --> 00:25:00,690
(person yawning)

407
00:25:03,060 --> 00:25:06,363
And then you slowly start
to hear Minnie breathing.

408
00:25:07,201 --> 00:25:09,179
She's she's not snoring yet

409
00:25:09,180 --> 00:25:13,349
but it's like this deep sleep breathing.

410
00:25:13,350 --> 00:25:15,959
You could hear something else going

411
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,249
on in the background.

412
00:25:18,250 --> 00:25:21,167
(Minnie breathing)

413
00:25:28,836 --> 00:25:36,836
(unidentified movements)

414
00:25:38,340 --> 00:25:40,263
I thought maybe is she sleepwalking?

415
00:25:41,460 --> 00:25:42,960
Is that what's happening here?

416
00:25:45,204 --> 00:25:48,121

00:25:49,276 --> 00:25:52,359

(indistinct talking)

421
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,599
There's someone talking,

422
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:13,949
it's a man's voice.

423
00:26:13,950 --> 00:26:16,049
I can't really make out what he's saying

424
00:26:16,050 --> 00:26:18,899
but it's definitely a man talking

425
00:26:18,900 --> 00:26:22,808
and she's asleep through all of it.

426
00:26:22,809 --> 00:26:25,892

427
00:26:27,492 --> 00:26:30,575

(indistinct talking)

430
00:26:42,210 --> 00:26:44,789
You know, after listening
to all of these recordings,

431
00:26:44,790 --> 00:26:49,790
they really got under my
skin and into my head.

432
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:51,389
You know, I couldn't sleep that night

433
00:26:51,390 --> 00:26:54,539
'cause they were playing
over and over in my head.

434
00:26:54,540 --> 00:26:56,853
I didn't go to work the next day.

435
00:26:57,690 --> 00:27:01,323
And then Robbie came home
with the tape transfer.

Right from the start.

448
00:29:44,370 --> 00:29:48,599
You could tell that this thing was dark.

449
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:53,599
This person's voice is... unhinged.

450
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,309
And the minute I realized
that it was filmed

451
00:29:56,310 --> 00:29:58,713
inside of the trailer itself,

452
00:30:00,330 --> 00:30:02,817
my stomach just dropped.

They tore the porch down

518
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,119
and removed the trailer
from its foundation

519
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,043
and where the basement was located,

520
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,039
right after Minnie died,

521
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,333

realized what was on this tape.

522
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:11,489
I'm just getting back.

523
00:34:11,490 --> 00:34:13,241
But I am pretty sure

524
00:34:13,242 --> 00:34:17,219
that I might be the first
Korean to ever move to

525
00:34:17,220 --> 00:34:21,067
or live in or visit Cypress, Nevada.

526
00:34:21,068 --> 00:34:24,723
Um the guy at the gas station,
asked me if I was Oriental,

527
00:34:25,810 --> 00:34:30,081
um then one of those guys in my class,

528
00:34:30,082 --> 00:34:32,819
um I mean he was sweet,
he was trying to be sweet.

529
00:34:32,820 --> 00:34:34,927
He said that I look like a China doll.

00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,749

acquired by the mine,

538
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,749
it was rented out to so
many different people

539
00:34:57,750 --> 00:35:00,629
and those records are
pretty much not existent

540
00:35:00,630 --> 00:35:03,359
because everything was kind
of done under the table.

541
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,788

was just a revolving door.

00:35:28,152 --> 00:35:29,152
(throat clearing)

545
00:35:34,110 --> 00:35:37,079
Most of what we see on
this video has no context

546
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:42,029
because the tape itself is
actually so badly damaged

547
00:35:42,030 --> 00:35:43,229
and warped that even

548
00:35:43,230 --> 00:35:46,319
though we can hear the
person that made the video,

549
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,899
we can't actually hear like the cadence

550
00:35:48,900 --> 00:35:51,843
of their voice and what
they really sound like.

551
00:35:54,330 --> 00:35:57,179
The woman in the pink
sweatshirt has been identified

552
00:35:57,180 --> 00:35:59,609
as Charity Henderson.

553
00:35:59,610 --> 00:36:01,803
She went missing in the late nineties.

554
00:36:03,322 --> 00:36:05,610
Okay, stop with that thing.

555
00:36:05,611 --> 00:36:07,944
(footsteps)

556
00:36:09,257 --> 00:36:10,829
(laughing)

557
00:36:10,830 --> 00:36:11,830
So weird.

558
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:16,640
Hello?

559
00:36:20,989 --> 00:36:24,322
You're acting funny, you're not talking.

560
00:36:26,218 --> 00:36:27,051
Hello?

561
00:36:27,052 --> 00:36:29,719
(footsteps)

562
00:36:29,720 --> 00:36:31,970
(laughing)

563
00:36:33,058 --> 00:36:35,391
(footsteps)

564
00:36:53,789 --> 00:36:56,789
(crickets chirping)

565
00:37:00,694 --> 00:37:03,027
(footsteps)

566
00:37:05,243 --> 00:37:07,910
(intense music)

567
00:37:08,940 --> 00:37:11,273
(footsteps)

568
00:37:19,665 --> 00:37:22,332
(intense music)

569
00:37:37,260 --> 00:37:39,839
There are other victims on this tape

570
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,090
but we never get a clear
look at their faces.

571
00:37:45,174 --> 00:37:47,924
(birds chirping)

572
00:37:51,882 --> 00:37:54,215
(footsteps)

573
00:37:56,964 --> 00:37:59,964
(footsteps running)

574
00:38:05,744 --> 00:38:09,661
(distant screaming and crying)

575
00:38:24,853 --> 00:38:28,770
(distant screaming and crying)

576
00:38:34,447 --> 00:38:38,446
(distant screaming and crying)

577
00:38:38,447 --> 00:38:40,780
(footsteps)

578
00:38:49,858 --> 00:38:52,608
(loud movements)

579
00:39:02,202 --> 00:39:04,952
(distant crying)

580
00:39:07,722 --> 00:39:10,555
(static sounding)

581
00:39:16,802 --> 00:39:19,169
[Dolly] You know, back
when I was a little girl,

582
00:39:19,170 --> 00:39:21,089
you know, I was sleeping in my bed

583
00:39:21,090 --> 00:39:22,330
and it was late at night

584
00:39:23,220 --> 00:39:26,189
and I heard my parents like, you know,

585
00:39:26,190 --> 00:39:31,189
shouting and I cracked open the door

586
00:39:31,190 --> 00:39:32,759
and I looked, you know,

587
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,269
and there was my dad
with a shotgun and my mom

588
00:39:36,270 --> 00:39:38,759
and they were staring out the window

589
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:42,509
and they were yelling and I overheard,

590
00:39:42,510 --> 00:39:45,359
you know, my mom say, you know "What kind

591
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:49,709
of people would be like
walking out this far?"

592
00:39:49,710 --> 00:39:53,425
And my dad said,

593
00:39:55,387 --> 00:39:57,305
"I don't think those are people."

594
00:39:57,306 --> 00:40:00,306
(crickets chirping)

595
00:40:03,883 --> 00:40:07,979
I was checking out my security footage

596
00:40:07,980 --> 00:40:10,259
from my security system

597
00:40:10,260 --> 00:40:12,209
and I had seen this guy come walking down

598
00:40:12,210 --> 00:40:14,099
from up behind my house,

599
00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:16,019
down toward this lady's house.

600
00:40:16,020 --> 00:40:17,669
This is right about the time that

601
00:40:17,670 --> 00:40:19,799
before she had passed away

602
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:21,269
and I figured that maybe had something

603
00:40:21,270 --> 00:40:24,660
to do with her passing away.

604
00:40:24,661 --> 00:40:27,328
(intense music)

605
00:40:33,079 --> 00:40:35,912
(static sounding)

606
00:41:18,010 --> 00:41:20,510
(dog barking)

607
00:41:21,589 --> 00:41:24,089
(dog barking)

608
00:41:27,279 --> 00:41:32,992
(loud banging)

609
00:41:38,561 --> 00:41:41,144
(loud banging)

610
00:41:42,739 --> 00:41:45,949
(Minnie standing)

611
00:41:45,950 --> 00:41:48,283
(footsteps)

612
00:41:53,523 --> 00:41:55,690
(tapping)

613
00:41:59,083 --> 00:42:04,525
(dog barking)

614
00:42:05,985 --> 00:42:08,192
(dog barking)

615
00:42:08,193 --> 00:42:10,784
(footsteps)

616
00:42:10,785 --> 00:42:16,354
(dog barking)

617
00:42:17,191 --> 00:42:18,592
(dog barking)

618
00:42:18,593 --> 00:42:21,260
(loud clanking)

619
00:42:23,831 --> 00:42:26,331
(dog barking)

620
00:42:27,713 --> 00:42:30,296
So on top of everything else,

621
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,329
there's a critter,

622
00:42:33,330 --> 00:42:35,020
some kind of animal in my walls

623
00:42:37,003 --> 00:42:41,353
that I can hear crackling
when I'm laying down.

624
00:42:42,690 --> 00:42:45,213
For months trying to fall asleep.

625
00:42:46,050 --> 00:42:47,250
There's now this animal.

626
00:42:48,563 --> 00:42:54,644
(walls creaking)

627
00:42:56,734 --> 00:42:59,234
(dog barking)

628
00:43:00,363 --> 00:43:01,933
(dog barking)

629
00:43:01,934 --> 00:43:03,386
(wall creaking)

630
00:43:03,387 --> 00:43:04,220
(dog barking)

631
00:43:04,221 --> 00:43:06,495
(wall creaking)

632
00:43:06,496 --> 00:43:11,992
(dog barking)

633
00:43:11,993 --> 00:43:14,660
(wall creaking)

634
00:43:16,664 --> 00:43:19,331
(wall creaking)

635
00:43:20,696 --> 00:43:26,841
(wall creaking)

636
00:43:35,606 --> 00:43:38,273
(wall creaking)

637
00:43:41,857 --> 00:43:42,748
(wall moving)

638
00:43:42,749 --> 00:43:45,415
(intense music)

639
00:43:48,945 --> 00:43:50,163
I did.

640
00:43:50,164 --> 00:43:51,120
I called 'em right away

641
00:43:51,121 --> 00:43:54,089
and I came up and they looked
at it and I showed them.

642
00:43:54,090 --> 00:43:55,559
[Gal] The only cause of
death they could come up

643
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:59,369
with was hyperthermia.

644
00:43:59,370 --> 00:44:03,059
The officer that arrived
at her trailer said

645
00:44:03,060 --> 00:44:05,279
that it was so hot in there

646
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:09,089
that it was like the furnace
was just out of control.

647
00:44:09,090 --> 00:44:11,609
And so he had to take her outside

648
00:44:11,610 --> 00:44:13,799
and wait for the medical responders

649
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,609
to arrive because he couldn't
even stand to wait inside.

650
00:44:17,610 --> 00:44:19,409
It was just unbearable.

651
00:44:19,410 --> 00:44:22,859
It's a shame this didn't
happen in the next county over

652
00:44:22,860 --> 00:44:26,369
because the White Pine
County Sheriff's Department

653
00:44:26,370 --> 00:44:28,859
they would've handled it properly.

654
00:44:28,860 --> 00:44:31,443
(somber music)

655
00:44:42,180 --> 00:44:46,049
This highway here is, you've heard

656
00:44:46,050 --> 00:44:49,229
of the Loneliest Road in America.

657
00:44:49,230 --> 00:44:54,230
You could literally see
no car for 200 miles.

658
00:44:54,583 --> 00:44:57,166
(somber music)

659
00:44:59,070 --> 00:45:01,889
Five miles up this canyon is the entrance

660
00:45:01,890 --> 00:45:05,874
to Cypress, the town,
right below the mine.

661
00:45:05,875 --> 00:45:08,939
(somber music)

662
00:45:08,940 --> 00:45:11,163
So the highway here, heads down,

663
00:45:13,050 --> 00:45:14,943
five miles down the road splits.

664
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,810
Left, goes town of Copper
Flat about 20 miles out

665
00:45:21,090 --> 00:45:24,100
or you can go right and go down

666
00:45:25,260 --> 00:45:27,543
about two hours to Caliente.

667
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:29,909
If you pass Caliente,

668
00:45:29,910 --> 00:45:33,299
you're taking the scenic route to Vegas.

669
00:45:33,300 --> 00:45:35,039
The Brasher girl was coming

670
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:40,040
from Vegas through Caliente to Cypress.

671
00:45:41,289 --> 00:45:44,597
(car passing)

672
00:45:44,598 --> 00:45:47,598
(suspenseful music)

673
00:45:55,890 --> 00:45:58,079
[Patricia] Our ranch
is right off the highway.

674
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,413
It's about 30 minutes outside of Cypress.

675
00:46:03,390 --> 00:46:06,179
That night my husband and I were home

676
00:46:06,180 --> 00:46:07,769
and we were waiting for our daughter

677
00:46:07,770 --> 00:46:09,303
to get home from Las Vegas.

678
00:46:10,339 --> 00:46:13,339
(suspenseful music)

679
00:46:17,340 --> 00:46:20,957
We were watching our grandson, Mason.

680
00:46:20,958 --> 00:46:23,375
(calm music)

681
00:46:24,798 --> 00:46:26,216
(Ameliana laughing)

682
00:46:26,217 --> 00:46:27,445
(lips kissing)

683
00:46:27,446 --> 00:46:28,616
Yes, you-

684
00:46:28,617 --> 00:46:31,289
[Patricia] From Las
Vegas to our ranch is

685
00:46:31,290 --> 00:46:33,525
about a four hour drive.

686
00:46:33,526 --> 00:46:35,943
(calm music)

687
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,749
Well you've got cell
service for the first half

688
00:46:39,750 --> 00:46:41,924
up to about Blacktop,

689
00:46:41,925 --> 00:46:44,669
(suspenseful music)

690
00:46:44,670 --> 00:46:48,419
but once you pass
Blacktop there is nothing.

691
00:46:48,420 --> 00:46:51,149
So we have this family policy,

692
00:46:51,150 --> 00:46:55,229
you stop the car and you
call home at Blacktop.

693
00:46:55,230 --> 00:46:59,099
That way we know that if you're not home

694
00:46:59,100 --> 00:47:02,485
within two hours we gotta
go out and look for you.

695
00:47:02,486 --> 00:47:05,486
(suspenseful music)

696
00:47:06,540 --> 00:47:08,489
When Ameliana's mother was younger,

697
00:47:08,490 --> 00:47:11,219
she also broke down in a similar area

698
00:47:11,220 --> 00:47:12,839
and when they were in the car waiting

699
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,999
for her grandfather to show up,

700
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,119
this creepy old guy came

701
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,830
by the car and was kind of harassing them

702
00:47:22,575 --> 00:47:26,609
and didn't leave until her
grandfather actually came.

703
00:47:26,610 --> 00:47:28,739
[Patricia] There just wasn't
something right about him.

704
00:47:28,740 --> 00:47:31,049
And he just looked at us

705
00:47:31,050 --> 00:47:33,509
with this kind of shit eaten grin

706
00:47:33,510 --> 00:47:35,489
and went pow!

707
00:47:35,490 --> 00:47:39,149
And so Ameliana's
mother has kind of a rule

708
00:47:39,150 --> 00:47:42,359
that if you ever break down
on this part of the highway,

709
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:43,979
you are not to remain in your car.

710
00:47:43,980 --> 00:47:48,269
You go off into the dark,
you hide, you watch your car

711
00:47:48,270 --> 00:47:50,909
and when you see that
the person showing up

712
00:47:50,910 --> 00:47:52,469
to your car is someone that you know

713
00:47:52,470 --> 00:47:55,259
and is there for you then you can get out

714
00:47:55,260 --> 00:47:58,829
and you can go to them,
but not until then.

715
00:47:58,830 --> 00:48:01,169
So that night she reached Blacktop

716
00:48:01,170 --> 00:48:03,183
and called us in, right about midnight.

717
00:48:04,470 --> 00:48:07,349
A little over an hour later, she called us

718
00:48:07,350 --> 00:48:09,393
and said that she'd broken down.

719
00:48:10,306 --> 00:48:12,059
(lightening striking)

720
00:48:12,060 --> 00:48:16,319
She'd broken down right around
the area of Lehman Summit.

721
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:17,999
She knew the area really well

722
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,129
'cause well it was this area

723
00:48:20,130 --> 00:48:21,449
that when she was little we used

724
00:48:21,450 --> 00:48:22,979
to take all the kids out there

725
00:48:22,980 --> 00:48:25,413
to this mining camp was right by there.

726
00:48:26,697 --> 00:48:29,364
(ominous music)

727
00:48:34,740 --> 00:48:38,069
So she knew that if she just
hiked right up the mountain,

728
00:48:38,070 --> 00:48:40,143
she could get service and call us.

729
00:48:41,113 --> 00:48:43,780
(ominous music)

730
00:48:45,270 --> 00:48:47,939
I told her, you'll know it's dad

731
00:48:47,940 --> 00:48:50,909
because he's gonna be flashing his light

732
00:48:50,910 --> 00:48:53,994
and then you can come on out of the trees.

733
00:48:53,995 --> 00:48:56,662
(ominous music)

734
00:48:59,130 --> 00:49:00,749
Right after my husband left,

735
00:49:00,750 --> 00:49:03,209
I called it into the police so they'd know

736
00:49:03,210 --> 00:49:05,369
that she was up there

737
00:49:05,370 --> 00:49:06,903
and he was looking for her.

738
00:49:11,070 --> 00:49:13,559
We have a police scanner at the ranch.

739
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,199
So I sat right next to that thing

740
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,543
for the next hour at least.

741
00:49:20,010 --> 00:49:22,109
Of course I was a little anxious

742
00:49:22,110 --> 00:49:24,550
but I wasn't too worried

743
00:49:26,610 --> 00:49:31,083
until they'd found her car but not her,

744
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,002
and they were starting to search for her.

745
00:49:35,003 --> 00:49:38,189
(suspenseful music)

746
00:49:38,190 --> 00:49:39,663
Just about daybreak,

747
00:49:40,770 --> 00:49:43,570
I saw the patrol car come up the dirt road

748
00:49:45,270 --> 00:49:46,709
and this police officer gets out

749
00:49:46,710 --> 00:49:49,439
and asks me if I knew how

750
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,529
to access Em's cell phone,

751
00:49:52,530 --> 00:49:54,392
if I'd come down to the station.

752
00:49:54,393 --> 00:49:57,393
(suspenseful music)

753
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:01,803
You know eventually,

754
00:50:03,930 --> 00:50:08,930
they found her dash cam
was rolling the whole time.

755
00:50:10,392 --> 00:50:13,059
(intense music)

756
00:50:19,115 --> 00:50:22,198
(car engine running)

757
00:50:44,943 --> 00:50:48,026
(car engine revving)

758
00:50:55,753 --> 00:50:58,753
(Ameliana exhaling)

759
00:51:18,301 --> 00:51:21,134
(items shuffling)

760
00:51:23,663 --> 00:51:26,914
(light switch clicking)

761
00:51:26,915 --> 00:51:29,915
(Ameliana exhaling)

762
00:51:34,793 --> 00:51:37,460
(bag shuffling)

763
00:51:39,993 --> 00:51:43,326
(light switch clicking)

764
00:51:47,195 --> 00:51:48,725
(seatbelt retracting)

765
00:51:48,726 --> 00:51:51,309
(door opening)

766
00:52:03,075 --> 00:52:06,392
(hood popping)

767
00:52:06,393 --> 00:52:09,060
(door shutting)

768
00:52:10,256 --> 00:52:12,756
(car passing)

769
00:52:18,416 --> 00:52:20,999
(hood opening)

770
00:52:42,425 --> 00:52:45,008
(hood closing)

771
00:52:49,296 --> 00:52:51,963
(door shutting)

772
00:54:08,395 --> 00:54:10,375
(Ameliana yawning)

773
00:54:10,376 --> 00:54:12,959
(door opening)

774
00:54:17,525 --> 00:54:20,192
(door shutting)

775
00:54:24,341 --> 00:54:26,924
(back opening)

776
00:54:32,846 --> 00:54:35,906
(back shutting)

777
00:54:35,907 --> 00:54:38,907
(crickets chirping)

778
00:54:51,945 --> 00:54:54,854
(car approaching)

779
00:54:54,855 --> 00:54:57,855
[Ameliana] And that is not my dad.

780
00:55:01,021 --> 00:55:04,004
(car passing)

781
00:55:04,005 --> 00:55:07,005
(crickets chirping)

782
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,680
This car has turned around three times

783
00:55:15,540 --> 00:55:16,540
to look at my car.

784
00:55:19,373 --> 00:55:22,206
(car approaching)

785
00:55:32,523 --> 00:55:34,862
(car passing)

786
00:55:34,863 --> 00:55:38,271
(Ameliana running)

787
00:55:38,272 --> 00:55:39,513
Stop!

788
00:55:39,514 --> 00:55:42,431
(Ameliana running)

789
00:55:43,889 --> 00:55:45,332
(falling sounds)

790
00:55:45,333 --> 00:55:46,333
Oh!

791
00:55:47,565 --> 00:55:50,815
(indistinct shuffling)

792
00:55:52,206 --> 00:55:56,196
(indistinct shuffling)

793
00:55:56,197 --> 00:55:57,030
(item clanking)

794
00:55:57,031 --> 00:56:00,113
(Ameliana screaming)

795
00:56:01,967 --> 00:56:02,950
(Ameliana screaming)

796
00:56:02,951 --> 00:56:06,225
Oh my god no no

797
00:56:13,498 --> 00:56:14,498
(Ameliana screaming)

798
00:56:19,006 --> 00:56:20,347
No No

799
00:56:21,687 --> 00:56:24,520
(rustling sounds)

800
00:56:37,215 --> 00:56:40,215
(distant screaming)

801
00:56:41,727 --> 00:56:44,727
(crickets chirping)

802
00:56:45,855 --> 00:56:46,855
Vroom.

803
00:56:48,555 --> 00:56:50,563
Where are you going?

804
00:56:50,564 --> 00:56:51,397
(lips kissing)

805
00:56:51,398 --> 00:56:53,249
[Luke] Later that night
after my shift ended

806
00:56:53,250 --> 00:56:55,289
I texted my girlfriend at the time

807
00:56:55,290 --> 00:56:58,439
to see if she was available
'cause it was late.

808
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:01,289
And so we're talking and can't even talk

809
00:57:01,290 --> 00:57:02,939
for more than five minutes

810
00:57:02,940 --> 00:57:05,189
and my boss calls,

811
00:57:05,190 --> 00:57:07,919
and he says he needs me back right away.

812
00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:11,579
A car got found and the
woman who was supposed

813
00:57:11,580 --> 00:57:13,859
to be driving that car was missing

814
00:57:13,860 --> 00:57:16,782
and it was an all hands on deck situation.

815
00:57:16,783 --> 00:57:19,349
(ominous music)

816
00:57:19,350 --> 00:57:20,556
My buddy Ron, he was just saying,

817
00:57:20,557 --> 00:57:21,540
"She probably got dragged

818
00:57:21,541 --> 00:57:23,249
off by a mountain lion

819
00:57:23,250 --> 00:57:26,183
and we'd be just searching for a body."

820
00:57:26,184 --> 00:57:29,579
(ominous music)

821
00:57:29,580 --> 00:57:32,369
There's only four of us, but
we can't wait any longer,

822
00:57:32,370 --> 00:57:34,439
we have to start the search.

823
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:38,313
So we basically just start
at her car and spread out.

824
00:57:38,314 --> 00:57:39,749
(ominous music)

825
00:57:39,750 --> 00:57:40,919
The police tipped us off

826
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:44,793
that her mom told them
that she might be hiding.

827
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:50,099
So I found a patch of trees
headed in that direction

828
00:57:50,100 --> 00:57:52,294
'cause it looked like a
good hiding spot to me.

829
00:57:52,295 --> 00:57:54,628
(footsteps)

830
00:57:59,063 --> 00:58:02,249
(thunder rumbling)

831
00:58:02,250 --> 00:58:03,250

833

01:08:58,473 --> 01:09:01,223
(wind whistling)

919
01:09:26,421 --> 01:09:29,171
(wind whistling)

920
01:09:31,003 --> 01:09:33,753
(distant voices)

921
01:09:39,077 --> 01:09:39,910
(loud banging), (loud banging)

922
01:09:39,911 --> 01:09:44,910
(Luke screaming), (loud banging)

923
01:09:45,021 --> 01:09:47,604
(Luke gasping)

924
01:10:00,729 --> 01:10:03,062
(footsteps)

925
01:10:04,770 --> 01:10:06,479
By the time I made my way out of there,

926
01:10:06,480 --> 01:10:09,603
feeling around in the dark,
making my way to the door,

927
01:10:11,070 --> 01:10:12,670
they were starting to get there.

928
01:10:16,590 --> 01:10:18,740
We searched everywhere
for that poor woman,

929
01:10:22,740 --> 01:10:23,740
we didn't find her.

930
01:10:25,412 --> 01:10:27,995
(somber music)

931
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:48,869
This is just something
that we're left with

932
01:10:48,870 --> 01:10:51,120
and that we have to live
with, just questions

933
01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:56,459
and I'm never gonna stop trying

934
01:10:56,460 --> 01:10:59,422
to find out the truth
of what happened to her.

935
01:10:59,423 --> 01:11:01,889
(somber music)

936
01:11:01,890 --> 01:11:05,639
We're asked almost weekly
about the influencers

937
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:09,239
that have so-called discovered the cabin

938
01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:11,159
that Gary disappeared at,

939
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:14,099
and that story is still developing

940
01:11:14,100 --> 01:11:17,011
and we promise that we
will bring that story

941
01:11:17,012 --> 01:11:20,403
to you when it is ready to be presented.

942
01:12:02,588 --> 01:12:05,255
(intense music)

943
01:12:21,746 --> 01:12:24,746
(suspenseful music)
