The Welcome back to missing. I am Tim here today with Lance. Lance, how are you today?

0:40.3

I'm doing great today, Tim. We have on a guest who we've said before. She always comes to this conversation and she always brings it with the research, with how articulate she is, but most of all with the amount of compassion and empathy that she has for the people that she is looking into,

0:57.8

these families who are missing, sons, daughters, husbands, wives, you know, she looks into these missing person cases and does it not just with this investigator hat on, but with like a human hat on.

1:09.2

But Tim, before we get too far down that rabbit hole, how are you today?

1:12.5

I'm doing great.

2:08.0

We had heard about this, read maybe an article about it at one point, but hadn't really done a deep dive into it until Laura had brought it to us in this more complete fashion.

2:17.8

So really no better person to have on to give us the details and, you know,

2:22.9

deliver those details to the listeners more than Laura.

2:26.1

Now, this is a really tragic story.

2:29.1

This is a tragic story about two boys on the verge of being young men who I hate saying that seemingly just
