0:44.4	Hot in the Case is only two weeks old and has already charted in 12 charts in nine different
0:53.0	countries. It was the number nine spot of all true crime
0:57.7	podcasts in the UK and the number 13 spot in the United States. Like that's cake. That's not real.

2:03.0	phone calls. She would later tell Logan that she had murdered her baby, but would go on to tell
2:09.6	authorities that she gave away her seven-month-old child in an underground black market adoption.
2:17.2	Neither story could ever be proven, but both theories
2:21.6	seem equally as possible. Whatever theory you believe, only one question remains. Where is
2:30.6	baby Gabriel? Well, there's only one person that knows the answer to that question,
2:37.1	and that's his mother, Elizabeth Johnson. Elizabeth Johnson is one of those people that was dealt
2:44.5	a rough hand at life. Her own mother passed away when she was very young. She was raised in the foster care system.
