00:00:03.799 --> 00:00:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Hello, friends, Welcome to video number thirteen in our National

2
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:12.359
<v Speaker 1>Park Mystery series. Going out into the great outdoors can

3
00:00:12.439 --> 00:00:15.199
<v Speaker 1>be wonderful for both our physical and mental health. Every

4
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:17.800
<v Speaker 1>country across the world has at least some beautiful scenery

5
00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:20.960
<v Speaker 1>that is worth walking for, but sometimes hikers pay the

6
00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:24.800
<v Speaker 1>ultimate price for beautiful view. Remember, never hike a loan,

7
00:00:25.239 --> 00:00:28.079
<v Speaker 1>tell someone where you're going, and always take a GPS

8
00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:33.079
<v Speaker 1>tracker and adequate supplies. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy

9
00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:39.479
<v Speaker 1>the stories. First up, we have Matthew Jedediah Hall. October

10
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:42.679
<v Speaker 1>twenty ninth, twenty twenty, should have been Matthew Jed Hall's

11
00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:46.000
<v Speaker 1>nineteenth birthday, a day that should have been spent celebrating

12
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:50.000
<v Speaker 1>with friends and family, was instead a som vacation. On

13
00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:53.920
<v Speaker 1>January twenty second, twenty eighteen, sixteen year old Jed left

14
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>his home in Idaho Falls around two am and hopped

15
00:00:56.960 --> 00:01:00.520
<v Speaker 1>into his two thousand and nine Nissan Versa camping and

16
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:05.319
<v Speaker 1>survival gear along with a nine millimeter handgun. Before leaving,

17
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:07.319
<v Speaker 1>he left his parents a note telling them he was

18
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:09.640
<v Speaker 1>going to take his own life, and just like that,

19
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:13.719
<v Speaker 1>he disappeared into the darkness. When Jed's parents woke up

20
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:16.159
<v Speaker 1>the next morning went to the bedroom to check on him.

21
00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:18.719
<v Speaker 1>They were heartbroken to see his bedroom was empty and

22
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:21.200
<v Speaker 1>that the note lay on his desk. After reading the

23
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>contents of that note, his parents rushed to the nearest

24
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>phone and reported him missing to the Idaho Falls Police Department.

25
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:30.239
<v Speaker 1>Soon a wide scale search is underway, with his parents,

26
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:34.519
<v Speaker 1>Amy and Allan joining in. Alan told East Idaho News

27
00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:39.560
<v Speaker 1>it was black madness. It was just insanity, not lead, nothing,

28
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:43.599
<v Speaker 1>just all of a sudden, he's gone. Jed's parents continued

29
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:45.879
<v Speaker 1>driving up and down the highways looking for any sign

30
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:49.159
<v Speaker 1>of him, while the police began pinging his phone, hoping

31
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.680
<v Speaker 1>to get a last known location. Jed's phone pinged for

32
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:55.319
<v Speaker 1>a final time at six forty eight am near the

33
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:58.959
<v Speaker 1>interchange of Interstate fifteen in US Highway twenty along the

34
00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:03.959
<v Speaker 1>Snake River. After that, the signal went dead. Meanwhile, staff

35
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>at the American Heritage Charter School began arriving ready to

36
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.199
<v Speaker 1>face another day. One teacher noticed that a window had

37
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:13.360
<v Speaker 1>been broken and began looking through the CCTV footage from

38
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:16.919
<v Speaker 1>the night before. As they scanned through hours of footage,

39
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:20.240
<v Speaker 1>something finally caught their eye. At two thirty one am,

40
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:23.680
<v Speaker 1>The video showed Jed breaking a window and gaining itch

41
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:26.719
<v Speaker 1>to the school, wearing combat boots, knee pads as well

42
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>as the ear and eye protection. Nothing was taken from

43
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 1>the school, but instead Jed made his way to the

44
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:34.960
<v Speaker 1>locker the girl who had just rejected his advances and

45
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:37.840
<v Speaker 1>slipped a thousand dollars in cash, a necklace, and a

46
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:40.960
<v Speaker 1>note into her locker. Once he was finished, he slipped

47
00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:43.879
<v Speaker 1>out of the school, got back into his car, and

48
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 1>disappeared into the darkness once more. A few hours between

49
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:50.319
<v Speaker 1>entering the school and his phone going dead have not

50
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:54.840
<v Speaker 1>been accounted for. Interestingly, most sources state that Jed left

51
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 1>behind a journal where his car had been parked at home.

52
00:02:57.879 --> 00:02:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Inside the journal were lists of things he was going

53
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:03.719
<v Speaker 1>to take with him and plans for disguises. Was the

54
00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:06.199
<v Speaker 1>note of red herring or did Jed really intend on

55
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.520
<v Speaker 1>taking his own life that night? His family and friend

56
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:12.039
<v Speaker 1>said he loved the show Hunted and was in the

57
00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Civil Air Patrol and wanted to join the military after school.

58
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:20.159
<v Speaker 1>Despite huge search efforts, not a single sign of Jed

59
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:24.039
<v Speaker 1>has ever been found, and after the investigation dwindled, Jed's

60
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:26.879
<v Speaker 1>parents called in the help of a private investigator Jim

61
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:30.400
<v Speaker 1>Terry in an interview with the East Idaho News in

62
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:33.919
<v Speaker 1>April of twenty twenty, Jim put forward some very bizarre

63
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:37.479
<v Speaker 1>theories that both the Idaho false Police and Jed's parents

64
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.719
<v Speaker 1>seemed to disagree with. Jim alleges that Jed had a

65
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:43.599
<v Speaker 1>female friend who had been assaulted and that Jed wanted

66
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:46.759
<v Speaker 1>to get his revenge and stand up for the Details

67
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>surrounding this seemed rather thin, and this article details how

68
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:52.280
<v Speaker 1>there was a shooting on the night that Jed disappeared

69
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.479
<v Speaker 1>that took place on the driveway of a person who

70
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:58.479
<v Speaker 1>may have known Jed's female friend. Jed's parents rebuted this

71
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:01.280
<v Speaker 1>theory and said Jed skilled enough that if he wanted

72
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:04.120
<v Speaker 1>to hurt somebody in the technical and tactical sense, that

73
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.840
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have been something he wasn't capable of. He wouldn't

74
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:09.039
<v Speaker 1>have done it. I don't believe he would have done it,

75
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:12.719
<v Speaker 1>but his ability. He was a pretty well trained kid.

76
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Since the early morning hours of January twenty second, twenty eighteen,

77
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:19.879
<v Speaker 1>Jed Hall has never been seen or heard from again.

78
00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:23.399
<v Speaker 1>His family are extremely concerned for his welfare and are

79
00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:27.959
<v Speaker 1>offering a twenty thousand dollars reward for any information. Jed

80
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Hall is described as a white male with brown hair

81
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:34.240
<v Speaker 1>and brown hazel eyes five eleven, one hundred and twenty pounds.

82
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:37.680
<v Speaker 1>In a Facebook post to the page missing Jed Hall,

83
00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:42.360
<v Speaker 1>his family wrote, thirty one months gone, twenty thousand dollars

84
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:45.839
<v Speaker 1>reward for information leading to finding my son or for

85
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:49.839
<v Speaker 1>information helping me find the Nissan Versa he took missing

86
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:52.800
<v Speaker 1>all that time. We won't ever get back such a

87
00:04:52.879 --> 00:04:56.720
<v Speaker 1>huge hole in our hearts and lives. Anyone with any

88
00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:00.439
<v Speaker 1>information about Jed is asked to contact Detective Anthony Cox

89
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:03.319
<v Speaker 1>of the Idaho Falls Police Department at two zero eight

90
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:07.399
<v Speaker 1>sixty one two eight six one six in reference case

91
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:12.000
<v Speaker 1>number two zero one eight Nash zero two six three six.

92
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Maximilian Schweizer. The disappearance of Max Sweitzer is both intriguing

93
00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:22.240
<v Speaker 1>and confusing, and there is so few details available about

94
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:26.160
<v Speaker 1>his background or his disappearance. According to the website Strange

95
00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:29.720
<v Speaker 1>outdoors dot com, Max's LinkedIn profile listed him as a

96
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:34.000
<v Speaker 1>clandestine analyst at the US Department of Homeland Security. Cliland's

97
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:37.399
<v Speaker 1>profile is no longer active. Various sources mentioned that he

98
00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>also worked for the San Francisco Civil Service Commission as

99
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:43.160
<v Speaker 1>a transit planner, and that this employment was terminated in

100
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:47.399
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and four. Now, the web Slution forum is

101
00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:50.720
<v Speaker 1>filled with theories and ideas about this case. However, without

102
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:54.240
<v Speaker 1>much solid information, these ideas in theory remained just that.

103
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:57.879
<v Speaker 1>In two thousand and five, Max faced federal charges for

104
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:00.879
<v Speaker 1>vandalizing an FBI lobby in San Francis, Leo after he

105
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:04.199
<v Speaker 1>demanded to speak with FBI agents. The article by the

106
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:06.759
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco Gate states that he threw a plant against

107
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:10.079
<v Speaker 1>the wall, broke the legs off chairs, and damaged glass

108
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:14.120
<v Speaker 1>display cases. The FBI alleged that he caused seven four

109
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety one dollars in damages. It's unclear whether

110
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:19.959
<v Speaker 1>Max damaged the lobby because he was told he couldn't

111
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:22.600
<v Speaker 1>meet with agents, or whether he just had a sudden outburst.

112
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:27.000
<v Speaker 1>There isn't much follow up information to him about this incidant. However,

113
00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Strange Outdoors also uncovered that in twenty sixteen, Max was

114
00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:34.560
<v Speaker 1>arrested again under charges of threats of violence, annoying and

115
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:38.879
<v Speaker 1>obscene threatening phone calls, threatening state officials or judges, and

116
00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:43.000
<v Speaker 1>warrants their holds only. The main question is why was

117
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:46.720
<v Speaker 1>Max so insistent on speaking to FBI agents and judges

118
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.920
<v Speaker 1>and state officials. Did he really have ties to homeland

119
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.480
<v Speaker 1>security or was this just something he had popped onto

120
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:57.079
<v Speaker 1>his LinkedIn profile. The only details surrounding his disappearance are

121
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:02.399
<v Speaker 1>as follows. Somewhere around January first to January fifth, Max

122
00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:05.040
<v Speaker 1>entered the Yosemite National Park and left his car at

123
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>the Camp for parking lot. On January fifth, the rental

124
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:11.319
<v Speaker 1>company that Max had rented the car from reported that

125
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.360
<v Speaker 1>the car was overdue, and subsequently it was located in

126
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:16.800
<v Speaker 1>the Camp four lot, but there was no sign of Max.

127
00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Yosemite National Park Service issued a tweet on January sixth,

128
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:25.399
<v Speaker 1>twenty eighteen, alerting the public to max disappearance. At this time,

129
00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:29.319
<v Speaker 1>Max had already been reported missing and an investigation was underway.

130
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:33.920
<v Speaker 1>As previously mentioned, the details surrounding his disappearance are incredibly sparse,

131
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:36.680
<v Speaker 1>and there are no mentions of any searches that were conducted.

132
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:41.759
<v Speaker 1>The tweet by the Yosemite NPS reads missing person Max

133
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.319
<v Speaker 1>Sweiser forty one year old, white male, brown hair, blue eyes,

134
00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:47.800
<v Speaker 1>five foot agents is tall, one hundred and eighty five

135
00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:53.240
<v Speaker 1>pounds unknown, clothing gear unknown, unknown direction, of travel. Now,

136
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:57.360
<v Speaker 1>as of twenty twenty two, Max still remains missing with

137
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:00.519
<v Speaker 1>his possible ties to homeland security. Is it by that

138
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Max didn't disappear at all and was sent on a

139
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:06.199
<v Speaker 1>secret mission or is there something more nefarious at hand?

140
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Anyone with any information regarding Max is asked to contact

141
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:13.839
<v Speaker 1>the Yosemite National Park Service at two zero nine three

142
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:21.959
<v Speaker 1>seven nine nine two. Next up. David Cook. On September nineteenth,

143
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.399
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen, David Dave Cook entered the White River National

144
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Forest in Aspen, Colorado, and planned on hiking to Maroon

145
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:33.879
<v Speaker 1>Bells and Pyramid Peak alone. Dave was a former Marine

146
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and had gone on plenty of hikes before, so he

147
00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:39.039
<v Speaker 1>was well equipped for this trip. In fact, this hike

148
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>was to be his forty seventh summit of a fourteen

149
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.360
<v Speaker 1>er and Dave was excited to get his trip under way. Unfortunately, however,

150
00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Dave failed to return home after his trip, and his

151
00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:53.440
<v Speaker 1>family immediately knew that something was wrong. Dave was described

152
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 1>by his wife Marine as a kind and caring person

153
00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>who wouldn't just leave his family. The Maroon Bells consisted

154
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.360
<v Speaker 1>of two peaks, Maroon Peak which is fourteen one hundred

155
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:06.759
<v Speaker 1>and sixty three feet tall and North Maroon Peak, which

156
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:10.639
<v Speaker 1>was fourteen thoy nineteen feet tall. The Pyramid Peak is

157
00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:13.720
<v Speaker 1>also a similar height at fourteen thy twenty five feet

158
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:16.159
<v Speaker 1>and his day was a former marine and had done

159
00:09:16.200 --> 00:09:19.200
<v Speaker 1>forty six summons before. Neither heat nor his family was

160
00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:22.679
<v Speaker 1>too worried. However, the Maroon Bells had picked up the

161
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.639
<v Speaker 1>unfortunate nickname of the Deadly Bells over the years, and

162
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:29.879
<v Speaker 1>it appears that the Deadly Bells may have indeed claimed

163
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:34.279
<v Speaker 1>another victim. According to reports, Dave entered the White River

164
00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:37.679
<v Speaker 1>National Forest on September nineteenth, twenty sixteen, and planned to

165
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:42.519
<v Speaker 1>climb North Maroon Peak first. Arc rangers and records indicate

166
00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:44.840
<v Speaker 1>that Dave arrived at the park at around eleven am

167
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.679
<v Speaker 1>and set off on his solo heigh. There was no

168
00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:50.759
<v Speaker 1>indication that anything was wrong, and Dave carried on throughout

169
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:54.399
<v Speaker 1>the day. Other hikers also reported seeing him on South

170
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:57.679
<v Speaker 1>Maroon at around one forty pm on September nineteenth of

171
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:01.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen. The next known movements are at between four

172
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:04.480
<v Speaker 1>pm and six pm, when Dave's phone pinged from inside

173
00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:08.440
<v Speaker 1>the park. Unfortunately, investigators were not able to determine which

174
00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:12.320
<v Speaker 1>peak the Pin had come from then. On September twentieth,

175
00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:15.279
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen, a day after Dave had entered the park,

176
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:19.039
<v Speaker 1>a parking attendant recalls seeing Dave that morning. This is

177
00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:22.519
<v Speaker 1>the last confirmed sighting of Dave Cook, and ever since

178
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>that day, September twentieth, twenty sixteen, there's been no sign

179
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:28.919
<v Speaker 1>of him. David only planned to be gone for a

180
00:10:28.919 --> 00:10:31.279
<v Speaker 1>few days, so when he felt her return home, his

181
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:35.480
<v Speaker 1>wife knew immediately that something was very, very wrong. When

182
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:37.000
<v Speaker 1>she was unable to get a hold of him, she

183
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:40.120
<v Speaker 1>called the park rangers and contacted the Pitkin County Sheriff's

184
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:43.879
<v Speaker 1>Office to report her husband missing. The Pitkin County Sheriff's

185
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.519
<v Speaker 1>Office sprang into action and began their search for Dave

186
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>on foot and by air. Mountain Rescue ASPEN, an all

187
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:55.559
<v Speaker 1>volunteer nonprofit organization, also joined in for the search, utilizing

188
00:10:55.559 --> 00:10:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the tools and expertise they had at hand. Unfortunately, despite

189
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:02.240
<v Speaker 1>their best efforts, no sign of Dave could be located,

190
00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:04.360
<v Speaker 1>and the search is called off after a few days

191
00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:08.879
<v Speaker 1>due to bad weather and heavy snowfall. Investigators later searched

192
00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Dave's car for any clues and found that his map

193
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:14.440
<v Speaker 1>for Pyramid Peak was still in his car. According to

194
00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:17.879
<v Speaker 1>the Facebook page find Dave Cook, his map for Peer

195
00:11:17.919 --> 00:11:21.159
<v Speaker 1>mid Peak was still in the car, although perhaps he

196
00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:24.519
<v Speaker 1>just forgot the map. Dave did not have his crampons

197
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:27.840
<v Speaker 1>with him, but he did have micro spikes. Search and

198
00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:30.320
<v Speaker 1>Rescue and the Picking County Sheriff's Office did a good

199
00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:34.080
<v Speaker 1>job searching. There were multiple helicopters, boots on the ground,

200
00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:37.600
<v Speaker 1>a plane with a million dollar camera, and sniffer dogs

201
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.320
<v Speaker 1>used in the search. Unfortunately, even with all this high

202
00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:44.559
<v Speaker 1>technology at their disposal, the pick And County Sheriff's Office

203
00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:46.960
<v Speaker 1>and search and rescue teams have been unable to find

204
00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:50.840
<v Speaker 1>any trace of Dave. Over the years, multiple additional searches

205
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:53.679
<v Speaker 1>have been conducted, and the Pickin County Shriff's Office has

206
00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:55.600
<v Speaker 1>made it clear that they have not given up in

207
00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>their search for the remains of Dave. In the wake

208
00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:03.360
<v Speaker 1>of Dave's mostie disappearance, Marine Dave's wife, along with members

209
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:06.720
<v Speaker 1>of Day's family, set up the Dave Gives Back campaign

210
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:09.559
<v Speaker 1>to help raise funds and awareness for search and rescue

211
00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:13.519
<v Speaker 1>teams in both Colorado and New Mexico. Marine wants to

212
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.240
<v Speaker 1>ensure that Dave is not forgotten and other families do

213
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:19.480
<v Speaker 1>not have to endure the same ordeal. Forty nine year

214
00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:21.799
<v Speaker 1>old Dave Cook was last seen in the White River

215
00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:25.679
<v Speaker 1>National Forest on September twentieth, twenty sixteen. He was last

216
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:29.559
<v Speaker 1>seen wearing khaki pants, a long sleeved black shirt, a

217
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.159
<v Speaker 1>blue helmet, and possibly a gray jacket. Anyone with any

218
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:36.360
<v Speaker 1>information is as to please contact the Picking County Sheriff's

219
00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:41.039
<v Speaker 1>Office at nine seven zero nine two zero five three

220
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:48.320
<v Speaker 1>zero zero. Next up, we have Breck Phelps. There's a

221
00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:51.320
<v Speaker 1>distinct lack of information in the case of sixty eight

222
00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:54.120
<v Speaker 1>year old Brick Phelps, but here's what we do know.

223
00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:58.720
<v Speaker 1>On October two, twenty sixteen, Breck went on a fishing

224
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:01.799
<v Speaker 1>trip on the Stantislava River in the Stanislaw National Forest

225
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:07.080
<v Speaker 1>in Tuolomee County, California. Unfortunately, Breck never returned to the

226
00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:10.679
<v Speaker 1>shore that has been missing ever since. According to reports,

227
00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:13.679
<v Speaker 1>Breck's friend found his two thousand and seven Nissan vers

228
00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:15.879
<v Speaker 1>that parked along Highway one O eight close to the

229
00:13:15.960 --> 00:13:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Dunelvista Point. The don Elvis To Point is a trail

230
00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:22.159
<v Speaker 1>in the Stannislaw National Force. It gives way to some

231
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:25.200
<v Speaker 1>of the most beautiful views in the park. According to

232
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:28.799
<v Speaker 1>Strange outdoors dot Com, the tract of land around Dunnell

233
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:32.879
<v Speaker 1>Point is described as large and vast, with extreme changes

234
00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:37.240
<v Speaker 1>in elevation, deep canyons, with heavy foliage, and cold, fast

235
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:40.759
<v Speaker 1>running water that filled the crevices and ledges. This was

236
00:13:40.759 --> 00:13:42.879
<v Speaker 1>the trail Breck used in order to get to the

237
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:47.919
<v Speaker 1>Stanislaus River. When Breck's friends and family realized he was missing,

238
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:51.759
<v Speaker 1>they continued the Tuolomee County Sheriff's Office, who embarked on

239
00:13:51.799 --> 00:13:56.360
<v Speaker 1>an intensive search form using helicopters, sniffer dogs, and officers

240
00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:59.159
<v Speaker 1>on the ground and in the water. The Sheriff's office

241
00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:01.960
<v Speaker 1>and Search and Risky team searched for Breck but found

242
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:05.679
<v Speaker 1>no sign of them. The Santislaus River and other pockets

243
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>of water were searched extensively as well, but there was

244
00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:11.679
<v Speaker 1>no sign of him ever found there. There have been

245
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:15.080
<v Speaker 1>two other mysterious disappearances in Dunell Vista over the years,

246
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:17.440
<v Speaker 1>and there are cases that will be featured later on

247
00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:20.879
<v Speaker 1>in this video. Sixty eight year old Breg Phelps was

248
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:24.600
<v Speaker 1>last seen on October second, twenty sixteen, in the Stanislaus

249
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.639
<v Speaker 1>River in the Stanislaw National Forest in California. He is

250
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:31.240
<v Speaker 1>described as a white male with gray hair, blue eyes,

251
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:33.840
<v Speaker 1>standing five foot ten inches tall and weighing about one

252
00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:38.120
<v Speaker 1>hundred and seventy five pounds. Anyone with any information is

253
00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:41.600
<v Speaker 1>asked to please contact the Tooolamey County Sheriff's Office at

254
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:46.039
<v Speaker 1>two zero nine five three three five eight one five.

255
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Next up, we have the case of Patricia Sioux Tollhurst.

256
00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Forty eight year old Patrician Sioue Tollhurst also was seriously

257
00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:01.200
<v Speaker 1>disappeared from Danel Vista in Santa i Saw National Forest

258
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:06.039
<v Speaker 1>in California. Again, there's not much information available, but here

259
00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:09.200
<v Speaker 1>is what we do know. Forty eight year old Patricia

260
00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:12.399
<v Speaker 1>owned the Patty Shack restaurant in East Sonora and was

261
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:17.120
<v Speaker 1>known as a kind and loving person. Unfortunately, shortly before

262
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:20.320
<v Speaker 1>her disappearance, Patty had been going through some financial hardships

263
00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:23.639
<v Speaker 1>and had taken a toll on her. She was stressed

264
00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:25.879
<v Speaker 1>out and was hoping that things would settle down and

265
00:15:25.919 --> 00:15:29.639
<v Speaker 1>sort themselves out. The last confirmed sighting and Patricia was

266
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:33.879
<v Speaker 1>on April eighteenth, twenty fourteen, in twain Hart, California, and

267
00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:36.399
<v Speaker 1>while this was the last time she was seen, it

268
00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:38.799
<v Speaker 1>wasn't the last time that her loved once heard from her.

269
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:42.879
<v Speaker 1>On April twentieth, twenty fourteen, Patricia posted a letter to

270
00:15:42.919 --> 00:15:45.360
<v Speaker 1>her friends telling them that she was going to Kennedy

271
00:15:45.399 --> 00:15:49.399
<v Speaker 1>Meadows along the Pacific Crest Trail Desert. This area is

272
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:52.159
<v Speaker 1>called the Promised Land, as hikers have to hike over

273
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.039
<v Speaker 1>seven hundred miles to reach this beautiful spy. In the letter,

274
00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Patricia told her friends that she was going to put

275
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:01.440
<v Speaker 1>her feet in the water, and many hikers talk about

276
00:16:01.480 --> 00:16:06.399
<v Speaker 1>the magnificent waters that Kennedy met us. After this, Patricia

277
00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:10.919
<v Speaker 1>has never been seen or heard from again. When Patricia

278
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:14.080
<v Speaker 1>failed to make contact with friends and family, the Tuolomee

279
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:17.240
<v Speaker 1>County Sheriff's Office was made of wherever disappearance and began

280
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:20.440
<v Speaker 1>their search for It would take two days for the

281
00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:24.919
<v Speaker 1>Tuolomee County Sheriff's Office to find their first clue. On

282
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:28.519
<v Speaker 1>April twenty second, Patricia's white Toyota four Runner was found

283
00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:32.960
<v Speaker 1>alongside Highway one oh eight at Danel Vista Point. Inside

284
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:36.320
<v Speaker 1>was her handbag and other personal items. There was no

285
00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:39.200
<v Speaker 1>indication of where Patricia could have gone, and the Sheriff's

286
00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:43.559
<v Speaker 1>office continued their search of the surrounding areas. Unfortunately, these

287
00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:46.399
<v Speaker 1>searches have turned up nothing. As of twenty twenty two,

288
00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:53.159
<v Speaker 1>Patricia remains missing. Patricia Sue Tolhurst was last seen on

289
00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:58.039

290
00:16:58.120 --> 00:17:01.039

00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:06.119
<v Speaker 1>at the Tiber disappearance weighed one hundred and twenty two

293
00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:08.799
<v Speaker 1>hundred and thirty pounds. She has a scar in her

294
00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:10.880
<v Speaker 1>ankle and a scar on her left cheek that looks

295
00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:13.839
<v Speaker 1>like a dimple. She was last seen wearing a black

296
00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:17.319
<v Speaker 1>pull over top, blue jeans, a Brian leather necklace with

297

302
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:45.759
<v Speaker 1>Brian George Brunell Forty eight year old Brian George Burnell

303
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:49.880
<v Speaker 1>was last seen on October thirty, first Halloween twenty eleven,

304
00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:54.160
<v Speaker 1>at his sister's home in Pleasant Hill, California. The details

305
00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:57.400
<v Speaker 1>surrounding Brian's case are incredibly limited, and all we know

306
00:17:57.519 --> 00:18:00.000
<v Speaker 1>is that prior to his disappearance, Brian had been depressed,

307
00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:04.400
<v Speaker 1>being out of work and also had financial worries. After

308
00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:07.759
<v Speaker 1>leaving his sister's home, Brian simply dropped off the face

309
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:10.119
<v Speaker 1>of the earth, and it wouldn't be until two weeks

310
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:13.240
<v Speaker 1>later that the Pleasant Hill Police Department would get their

311
00:18:13.240 --> 00:18:19.279
<v Speaker 1>first clue. On November fifteenth, twenty eleven, Brian's abandoned car

312
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:21.880
<v Speaker 1>was found at the Boulder Creek Falls trailhead in the

313
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:26.599
<v Speaker 1>Whiskey Town National Recreation Area by staff. Following this development,

314
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.359
<v Speaker 1>the National Park Service Rangers, the Shasta County Sheriff's Department,

315
00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:33.759
<v Speaker 1>the Shasta County Search and Rescue teams, and the California

316
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:36.559
<v Speaker 1>Highway Patrol began their search for Brian on foot and

317
00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:40.720
<v Speaker 1>by air. These teams scoured the woods surrounding Mill Creek

318
00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:43.920
<v Speaker 1>and Boulder Creek, but unfortunately, there was no sign of Brian.

319
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:49.440
<v Speaker 1>After November seventeenth, twenty eleven, the search will scale back

320
00:18:49.599 --> 00:18:53.680
<v Speaker 1>and has been quietly ongoing ever since. Brian George Burnell

321
00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:56.640
<v Speaker 1>was last seen on October thirty first, twenty eleven, in

322
00:18:56.720 --> 00:19:00.559
<v Speaker 1>Pleasant Hill, California. He is described as a white male

323
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:03.880
<v Speaker 1>by foot nine inches tall, with brown hair and brown eyes.

324
00:19:04.599 --> 00:19:07.079
<v Speaker 1>Anyone with any information as to the s whereabouts has

325
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:10.359
<v Speaker 1>asked to police contact the Pleasant Hill Police Department at

328
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Next David Michael Bernie. On June twenty ninth, two thousand

329
00:19:28.400 --> 00:19:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and seven, forty six year old David Michael Burnie purchased

330
00:19:31.920 --> 00:19:34.359
<v Speaker 1>a red Toyota tur Cell and planned to drive to

331
00:19:34.440 --> 00:19:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Georgia to meet up with his two daughters. Unfortunately, David

332
00:19:38.279 --> 00:19:42.119
<v Speaker 1>never arrived, prompting his daughters to report him missing. As

333
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:44.799
<v Speaker 1>with most cases featured in this episode, there's not a

334
00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:47.279
<v Speaker 1>whole lot of information and all we can do is

335
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:50.839
<v Speaker 1>report the facts that are presented to us. The next

336
00:19:50.920 --> 00:19:53.519
<v Speaker 1>update on David's case doesn't come unto late August of

337
00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:56.279
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and seven, when his new red Toyota tur

338
00:19:56.400 --> 00:20:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Cell was found abandoned in Bankhead Forest, just off County

339
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.400
<v Speaker 1>he Roade B fifteen in Winston County, Alabama. After talking

340
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:07.759
<v Speaker 1>to locals, the Coleman County Sheriff's Office learned that David

341
00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:10.559
<v Speaker 1>had last been seen at the Jet PEP gas station

342
00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:14.599
<v Speaker 1>on Highway one fifty seven in Battleground, Alabama, on June

343
00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:18.759
<v Speaker 1>twenty ninth, two thousand and seven. After that, David seems

344
00:20:18.759 --> 00:20:21.440
<v Speaker 1>to have just disappeared. Has not been seen or heard

345
00:20:21.480 --> 00:20:25.519
<v Speaker 1>from since. According to locals, David's car may have been

346
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:28.720
<v Speaker 1>there since July seventh, two thousand and seven, and wasn't

347
00:20:28.759 --> 00:20:33.200
<v Speaker 1>reported or properly noted until over a month later. According

348
00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:36.480
<v Speaker 1>to the Charlie Project, the red Toyota Tursell was out

349
00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:39.279
<v Speaker 1>of gas and the battery was missing. Apart from that,

350
00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:42.279
<v Speaker 1>there was no signs of a struggle or any indication

351
00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:47.319
<v Speaker 1>that anything untoward had happened. Sadly, David left behind six

352
00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:50.720
<v Speaker 1>children and other family members who are all desperate for answers.

353
00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:55.720
<v Speaker 1>His profile on the Charlie Project reads David's mother, sister,

354
00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:58.559
<v Speaker 1>and six children all stated he would not have left

355
00:20:58.599 --> 00:21:00.880
<v Speaker 1>of his own accord, and they think he may have

356
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:04.119
<v Speaker 1>met with foul play. They stated he had enemies who

357
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:08.079
<v Speaker 1>could have armed him. David Michael Burney, as we said,

358
00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:10.279
<v Speaker 1>was last scene at the Jet PEP gas station on

359
00:21:10.359 --> 00:21:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Highway one fifty seven in Battleground, Alabama. He's described as

360
00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:17.440
<v Speaker 1>a white male with gray brown hair, brown hazel eyes,

361
00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:20.839
<v Speaker 1>stands five four to five seven and weighs between one

362
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:23.200
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty five to one hundred and sixty five pounds.

363
00:21:24.119 --> 00:21:27.240
<v Speaker 1>David has several tattoos on his right arm, a scar

364
00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:29.799
<v Speaker 1>on his right arm, and a brown birthmark on the

365
00:21:29.799 --> 00:21:33.359
<v Speaker 1>front of his neck underneath his chin. He's also missing

366
00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:37.480
<v Speaker 1>several teeth. Anyone with information has asked to please contact

367
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:41.319
<v Speaker 1>Ronnie Melton, the Captain of investigations with the Coleman County

368

<v Speaker 1>Sheriff's Office, at two five six seven three four zero

370
00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:56.680
<v Speaker 1>zero zero zero nine to one. Next the disappearance of

371
00:21:56.799 --> 00:22:01.119
<v Speaker 1>Nita Mayo. Sixty four year old Mayo was a hard

372
00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:03.960
<v Speaker 1>working and loving woman who cared for not just her family,

373
00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.400
<v Speaker 1>but others during their time of need. Nita worked as

374
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:10.880
<v Speaker 1>a Licensed Practical Nurse or LPN at Mount Grant General

375
00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:14.440
<v Speaker 1>Hospital Clinic in Hawthorne, Nevada, and everyone who met her

376
00:22:14.519 --> 00:22:18.200
<v Speaker 1>simply adored her. Nita also loved the great outdoors and

377
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:22.119
<v Speaker 1>loved to drive into nature and explore. Her daughter Tracy

378
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:25.559
<v Speaker 1>told COLO TV getting to know all parts of the

379
00:22:25.640 --> 00:22:29.559
<v Speaker 1>United States was something she enjoyed, and she loved scenery.

380
00:22:29.799 --> 00:22:31.920
<v Speaker 1>She was always putting us in the car and just

381
00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:36.640
<v Speaker 1>driving to discover things. On August eighth, two thousand and five,

382
00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Nita hopped into her silver nineteen ninety seven Mercury Sable

383
00:22:40.279 --> 00:22:42.960
<v Speaker 1>and headed for Sonora, California, to do a bit of shopping.

384
00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:45.599
<v Speaker 1>Nita had the day off work, so she met up

385
00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:48.000
<v Speaker 1>with a friend to have breakfast, and by eleven am

386
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:50.000
<v Speaker 1>the two were done in Nita was on her way

387
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:53.720
<v Speaker 1>to California. Nita was excited about her trip as it

388
00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:56.519
<v Speaker 1>would take her over the Sonora Pass, a beautiful mountain

389
00:22:56.599 --> 00:22:59.880
<v Speaker 1>road in California. The road has only opened at certain

390
00:22:59.880 --> 00:23:01.759
<v Speaker 1>time times of the year due to the weather, and

391
00:23:01.839 --> 00:23:04.200
<v Speaker 1>lucky for Nita, it was opened in August of two

392
00:23:04.240 --> 00:23:07.680
<v Speaker 1>thousand and five. When Nita failed to show up for

393
00:23:07.759 --> 00:23:10.920
<v Speaker 1>work on August nine, two thousand and five, however, her

394
00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:15.160
<v Speaker 1>coworkers knew that something was very, very wrong. Nita was

395
00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:18.079
<v Speaker 1>dedicated to her job and was considered a dependable and

396
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:22.200
<v Speaker 1>well respected nurse. It was extremely out of character for

397
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:24.400
<v Speaker 1>her to not show up to work without even calling in.

398
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:27.640
<v Speaker 1>When her colleagues tried to call her home and received

399
00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:30.720
<v Speaker 1>no answer, they called Nita's next to Ken her children

400
00:23:31.200 --> 00:23:33.240
<v Speaker 1>to inform them that they had been unable to make

401
00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:37.279
<v Speaker 1>contact with their mother. After hearing this news, her four

402
00:23:37.359 --> 00:23:40.839
<v Speaker 1>children made the decision to report their mother missing, and

403
00:23:40.960 --> 00:23:46.440
<v Speaker 1>soon County Sheriff's office launched an investigation. Her children were

404
00:23:46.440 --> 00:23:48.400
<v Speaker 1>concerned that she may have had an accident on the

405
00:23:48.480 --> 00:23:53.079
<v Speaker 1>road between Hawthorne and Sonora. Despite lengthy searches throughout the

406
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:56.599
<v Speaker 1>day and night, no sign of Nita was found. Then,

407
00:23:56.920 --> 00:24:00.759
<v Speaker 1>just two days after she mysteriously disappeared, a shocking discovery

408
00:24:00.839 --> 00:24:04.720
<v Speaker 1>was made. On August tenth, two thousand and five. Nita's

409
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:07.839
<v Speaker 1>nineteen ninety seven silver Mercury Sable was discovered in the

410
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:11.519
<v Speaker 1>parking lot at Donell's Vista in the Stanslaw National Forest.

411
00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Part of this area is a lookout over Route one

412
00:24:14.519 --> 00:24:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Oay that Nita would have driven down to get to

413
00:24:16.599 --> 00:24:20.680
<v Speaker 1>and from Sonora and Hawthorne. Bizarrely, her car was found

414
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>locked with her keys, handbag, purse, ID and phone all

415
00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:27.680
<v Speaker 1>neatly tucked away inside. There were other items in the car.

416
00:24:28.200 --> 00:24:30.400
<v Speaker 1>The only thing that was missing was the camera that

417
00:24:30.480 --> 00:24:32.599
<v Speaker 1>she had taken with her to take pictures of her trip.

418
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Despite numerous searches from both the air and on the ground.

419
00:24:36.960 --> 00:24:41.000
<v Speaker 1>No sign of Nita Mao has ever been discovered. Sniffer

420
00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:43.559
<v Speaker 1>dogs were brought in, however, they were unable to follow

421
00:24:43.599 --> 00:24:46.880
<v Speaker 1>hercent for more than a few yards. According to the

422
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Charlie Project, Jewel Gene Rice was mentioned in connection with

423
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Nita's case on Nita's Charlie Project profile. It reads. In

424
00:24:54.920 --> 00:24:58.319
<v Speaker 1>September two thousand and five, authorities announced they were seeking

425
00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Jewel Gene Rice in connection with Mayo's disappearance. She is

426
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:05.359
<v Speaker 1>not being called a suspect in Nita's case, but investigators

427
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:07.720
<v Speaker 1>believe that she is a person of interest and may

428
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:12.759
<v Speaker 1>have some valuable information. Police stated Rice's vehicle had mechanical

429
00:25:12.759 --> 00:25:15.519
<v Speaker 1>problems in the Sonora Era on the day Nita disappeared,

430
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:19.039
<v Speaker 1>and she was going around asking people for help. Despite

431
00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:22.440
<v Speaker 1>all this information and developments, however, the police are still

432
00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:24.960
<v Speaker 1>no closer to solving the mystery of what happened to

433
00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:28.839
<v Speaker 1>Nita male on that sunny August afternoon. Nita was last

434
00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:31.960
<v Speaker 1>seen in Hawthorne, Nevada, on August eight, two thousand and five.

435
00:25:32.319 --> 00:25:35.599
<v Speaker 1>She speaks of the British accent, although the particular accent

436
00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:37.960
<v Speaker 1>is not specified, as there are actually one hundreds of

437
00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:42.319
<v Speaker 1>British accents and she is a British national. She is

438
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:45.680
<v Speaker 1>described as a white female with brown hair, brown hazel eyes,

439
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.839
<v Speaker 1>around five foot tall and one hundred and forty pounds.

440
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Nita wears oval shaped prescription glasses with gold wire frames

441
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:55.519
<v Speaker 1>and has her ears pierced. She was last seen wearing

442
00:25:55.559 --> 00:25:58.920
<v Speaker 1>a gold mother's ring with a paradot pinkstone, a bluestone

443
00:25:58.920 --> 00:26:01.559
<v Speaker 1>and a purple stone on her right ring finger, and

444
00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:04.839
<v Speaker 1>possibly a Celtic style silver necklace and a silver style

445
00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:07.000
<v Speaker 1>necklace with one blue and two pink stones and a

446
00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:11.160
<v Speaker 1>small pendant. Anyone with any information has urged to contact

447
00:26:11.160 --> 00:26:15.240
<v Speaker 1>the Tuolomee County Sheriff's Office on eight hundred two two

449
00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:25.680
<v Speaker 1>dashed two four zero six and lastly, who have the

450
00:26:25.720 --> 00:26:30.039
<v Speaker 1>disappearance of Patrick Terrence Whaalan. Thirty three year old Patrick

451
00:26:30.119 --> 00:26:32.599
<v Speaker 1>Terrence Whalen was described by those who knew him best

452
00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:35.839
<v Speaker 1>as warm, spirited and kind hearted. Patrick was training to

453
00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:39.559
<v Speaker 1>become a naturopath doctor and had recently finished his bachelor's degree.

454
00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:44.160
<v Speaker 1>According to sources, he worked extensively with charities raising money

455
00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:47.480
<v Speaker 1>for cystic fibrosis research and dedicated his time to those

456
00:26:47.519 --> 00:26:51.160
<v Speaker 1>in need. When Patrick wasn't looking after the underdog or

457
00:26:51.200 --> 00:26:53.839
<v Speaker 1>studying hard for his degree, he could be found hiking

458
00:26:53.880 --> 00:26:57.519
<v Speaker 1>in the wilderness. In fact, his friends and family jokingly

459
00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:00.359
<v Speaker 1>called him the Survivalist. Thanks to his many hours and

460
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:03.200
<v Speaker 1>hundreds of miles along the Pacific Crest Trail and in

461
00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:06.319
<v Speaker 1>the Glacier National Park, the Blackfeet Tribal Lands, and the

462
00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:10.200
<v Speaker 1>Columbia Falls region of Montana, Patrick was well versed in

463
00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:12.599
<v Speaker 1>the outdoors and believed that nature had a way of

464
00:27:12.640 --> 00:27:16.200
<v Speaker 1>healing us. The last time Patrick was seen or heard

465
00:27:16.200 --> 00:27:19.680
<v Speaker 1>from was on November second, two thousand, when he was

466
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:24.240
<v Speaker 1>in Glacier Park in Montana. As previously mentioned, Patrick had

467
00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:26.400
<v Speaker 1>been spending a lot of time in Glacier Park and

468
00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:30.000
<v Speaker 1>other National parks and forests in the area. Reports tonight

469
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:33.559
<v Speaker 1>give an exact date, however, but sometime after November second,

470
00:27:33.920 --> 00:27:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Patrick's car was found abandoned at the Lake McDonald Lodge

471
00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:39.519
<v Speaker 1>restaurant on the US Highway eighty nine and State Highway

472
00:27:39.559 --> 00:27:42.799
<v Speaker 1>forty nine, towards the eastern edge of Glacier National Park.

473
00:27:43.759 --> 00:27:46.640
<v Speaker 1>It wouldn't be until May twenty seventh, two thousand and one,

474
00:27:47.079 --> 00:27:49.480
<v Speaker 1>that investigators would get their next big clue when they

475
00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:53.279
<v Speaker 1>found an abandoned camp that Patrick had made. The camp

476
00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:56.400
<v Speaker 1>was found at the Atlantic Creek backcountry campground along the

477
00:27:56.440 --> 00:27:59.680
<v Speaker 1>north fork of Cutbank Creek, near bad Marriage Mountain and

478
00:27:59.680 --> 00:28:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Middie and Grizzly Peak. Park rangers were able to make

479
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:07.279
<v Speaker 1>an identification quickly, as Patrick's personal items had been left behind. However,

480
00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:11.160
<v Speaker 1>there was no sign of Patrick. Reports don't indicate how

481
00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:13.279
<v Speaker 1>long the camp had been there or how long Patrick

482
00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:16.039
<v Speaker 1>had been gone from the camp. By this point, Patrick's

483
00:28:16.039 --> 00:28:18.640
<v Speaker 1>family knew that something terrible must have happened to him.

484
00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:21.920
<v Speaker 1>They consider him a true survivalist in every sense of

485
00:28:21.960 --> 00:28:24.160
<v Speaker 1>the word, and he had a kind heart, so it

486
00:28:24.200 --> 00:28:26.720
<v Speaker 1>was very unlike him not to make contact with friends

487
00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:31.319
<v Speaker 1>or family, or to just miss his classes. Unfortunately, extensive

488
00:28:31.319 --> 00:28:36.079
<v Speaker 1>searches of all the areas mentioned previously have turned up nothing. However,

489
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:39.119
<v Speaker 1>his family are still holding out hope that one day

490
00:28:39.279 --> 00:28:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Patrick will walk through the front door and that they

491
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:46.400
<v Speaker 1>will be reunited again. In two thousand and eight, his

492
00:28:46.440 --> 00:28:48.720
<v Speaker 1>family held a vigil in honor of his memory and

493
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:52.799
<v Speaker 1>since then have continued fighting for answers. Patrick Terrence Whalen

494
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:56.920
<v Speaker 1>was last seen on November second, two thousand in Glacier Park, Montana.

495
00:28:57.839 --> 00:29:00.839
<v Speaker 1>He is originally from Cleveland, Ohio, but was living in Portland,

496
00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Oregon at the time of its disappearance. Patrick has described

497
00:29:04.279 --> 00:29:06.759
<v Speaker 1>as a white male with blonde hair hazel eyes. He

498
00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:08.960
<v Speaker 1>stood six feet tall and weighed about one hundred and

499
00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:13.680
<v Speaker 1>fifty five pounds. The Charlie Project notes, according to his family,

500
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:17.839
<v Speaker 1>Patrick was displaying signs of middle illness, including obsessive behavior

501
00:29:17.960 --> 00:29:21.400
<v Speaker 1>and paranoia. At the time his disappearance. He may have

502
00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:23.960
<v Speaker 1>been wearing a short sleeved shirt and blue jeans, and

503
00:29:24.000 --> 00:29:28.920
<v Speaker 1>he also wore wireframe glasses. Anyone with any information has

504
00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:32.400
<v Speaker 1>asked contact park ranger Joe Fowler at Glacier National Park
