Summary

Michael Gorley left his mother's home on May 17th, 2015 to spend the day with friends. When Michael failed to return home by the following morning and those same "friends" began giving conflicting stories to his family about when Michael left the evening before, Michael's mother and sister knew in their hearts that something had gone horribly wrong. But where did Michael go and why did those same "friends" not seem concerned about finding him?

a man went missing while in the company of his friends. Was there one of them who only
