Our card this week is Lindsay Wells, the King of Diamonds from California.

Since 1999, Seamy Valley detectives have had an interesting case on their hands.

Over the years, the case developments have included work with a psychic medium,

an undercover wire operation, and searches with cadaver dogs.

But this isn't a homicide case. It's the missing person's case of 22-year-old Lindsey Wells.

I'm Ashley Flowers, and this is the deck.

Thank you. is the deck. The deck. On March 31st, 1999, the Seamy Valley Police Department received a missing person's report from a man named John Tate. He said that his fiancé, Lindsay Wells, was MIA. She lived with him

and his mom and had been gone for a couple of days by that point. Now, John said he'd already

checked around with her friends and family, and they hadn't seen her either. But it's not like she could have just walked off.

Lindsay didn't have a car, and the idea that she left on foot made little sense either.

Because...

Lindsay was nine months pregnant with their child.

That's Detective Chris Lamb with the Seamy Valley Police Department.

He told us that one of the more concerning parts about Lindsay's absence was that she was just

weeks away from her April 17th due date, and she missed a prenatal appointment on March 30th,

just one day before John made this report.

Detective Lamb wasn't on the case back in 1999.

He's been playing catch-up trying to get his arms around an investigation that was kicked off 27 years ago by now retired Detective John Parks.

So it's his timeline and his supplemental reports that Detective Lamb is using to try and paint a picture of Lindsay's last movements.

I think anytime someone's missing, you're trying to solidify a timeline, a factual timeline,

something to start working with. And so his initial contact was going back to speak with

John to try and figure out exactly when Lindsay had gone missing.
