Welcome to this bonus episode of sequestered.

Andrea and I wanted to circle back on two cases we've already covered,

cases that left us with more questions than answers.

We'll revisit the disappearance of Zeb Quinn in Asheville, North Carolina,

and the death of Mitrease Richardson in Malibu, California.

So let's jump right in.

One of the strangest details in Zev's story is the page he received right after leaving work.

That page led him to a payphone, and it was traced back to his aunt's house.

Right.

But here's the problem.

His aunt wasn't actually at home when

the page was sent. She was with Misty Taylor and Misty's mom. So was the page a coincidence, a setup,

or the trap that started everything? And if it wasn't his aunt, who else had access to page him?

Was it Misty, Wesley, even Misty's mom?

And the bigger question was, did they lure him there? Like, was it meant to get Zeb alone and vulnerable and change the course of his night?

That one little page is like a spark that lit the whole fuse.

Right. And that's what makes the connection

between Zeb's aunt and Misty's mom so fascinating. They were friends. This wasn't just some

random overlap. It was a real relationship. So now you've got Zeb's family and Misty's family

linked and Jason Owens in the mix and Wesley Smith, who was known to be jealous

and possessive. Yeah, and then there's the car. The lipstick on the window. Like to me, all of that

once I really got into this case, I sort of felt like it was a way to throw off the investigators.
