Summary

Denise Huskins was abducted while spending the night at her boyfriend’s home in March 2015, but when Aaron Quinn went to report what had happened, he immediately became a suspect. The Vallejo Police Department called her abduction a hoax and stood by that belief until a break in the case came thanks to Detective Misty Carausu 3 months later. Denise’s story is the subject of Netflix’s new series ‘American Nightmare’, and this episode is a deep dive into the case, topics not talked about in the docuseries, and our discussion of the story.
