What's up you guys? I'm Andrea. And I'm Haley. And you're listening to Inhuman, a true crime podcast. Welcome back, everybody.

Before we get started with today's case, I wanted to give a little case update from episode 54. So way back in the beginning.

Wow. It's a long time ago. I know. It's like, gosh, we're on like, what? 500 something.

Three? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah, like 450 episodes ago.

We covered the Martin family disappearance.

And a lot of you probably have already heard about this.

But for those of you who Hatton, Hatton, yes, that's a word.

So basically just like summarize the case, like back in 1958, the Martin family, which consisted of parents Kenneth and Barbara and their three children, Barbie, Virginia, and Susan.

They went missing after going out to gather Christmas decorations on December 7th.

And in May of 1959, the remains of Susan and Virginia were discovered on the banks of the Columbia

River.

However, Kenneth, Barbara, and Barbie remained missing.

So in 2024, which was like over 60 years after the Martins disappeared,

what was believed to be their family car was discovered in the Columbia River, along with

actually several other vehicles. So their car was not the only car recovered. And then on April 16th of this year, the Oregon State Medical Examiner's Office announced that through DNA analysis conducted by Othrum, the remains of Kenneth, Barbara, Barbie were positively identified.

And police believe that, you know, no file play or anything like that.

They just believe that their deaths were caused by an accident and not a criminal act, which is so sad.

I mean, obviously, like, we don't want it to be because of, like, foul play or something terrible happening.

But it's just so sad that, like like they just got into an accident and,

like essentially drowned and nobody knew anything for like 60 years.

It's really sad.

You can never have full closure even though, you know,
