Hey, missing listeners. This is part two of our coverage of the disappearance of Erica Franulich from

0:06.4

Middleburg, New York in October of 1986. We've got five parts, so we're going to air three more episodes

0:14.3

after this one. I hope you stick with it. This is a really fascinating case, and this is the first case

0:19.2

that private investigations for the missing investigated.

0:23.1

And like we've said, this is part of the mission of this show and of private investigations

0:27.6

for the missing.

0:28.5

Once the coverage of a case or a missing person's story starts to get a little bit old, we'd

0:33.1

like to bring that back into the forefront.

0:35.2

And speaking of private investigations for the missing,

0:38.2

if you have a tip about Erica's disappearance or any of the cases that are listed on that

0:43.5

website or perhaps not listed on that website, you can call them at 866331-6660, or you can

0:50.4

email them at PIFTMTips at gmail.com, and the website is Investigations

0:56.5

for the Missing.org. For Erica's disappearance, you can also contact the New York State Police

1:02.1

at 518-630-1-7-00. And as far as the private investigations for the missing tip line is concerned, I can't speak for New York State Police, but the private investigations for the missing tip line is anonymous, so you don't need to worry about your identity or anything like that.

1:21.4

All right. Thanks for listening, everybody. Please follow us on social media at missing CSM. Welcome back to Missing. I am Tim here today with Lance. Lance, how are you today? I'm hanging in there. How are you today, Tim? I'm doing well. Lance, this is part two of our episodes on Erica Franilich, and these are pretty hard-hitting episodes. Part two, probably being a bit more eyebrow raising than part one.

2:22.2

Yeah, well, the conversation that we had with Greg and Lou and Greg and Lou are from Brianna Maitland's case, they were employed by Bruce Maitland, who founded private

2:27.6

investigations for the missing.

2:29.3

They are doing this case pro bono.

2:31.3

It's to showcase what PIs for the missing can do.

2:35.3

And the longer this conversation went, the more we realized that this is information that's never been heard

2:39.3

before. And it was more and more revealing the more they spoke. That's right. And we really,

2:45.1

again, need everyone to share. And please go back and listen to Part 1. And please give it a retweet.
