Hi, Crime Junkies. I'm your host, Ashley Flowers.

And I'm Britt.

And today, I want to talk about a type of case that terrifies me to my core.

And that's when someone goes missing from a cruise ship.

That seems pretty specific. And I know I have my writer die free key case of Tanya writer,

but why cruise ships? Why, out of all the dark things that we talk about, cruise ships are your thing.

Because if you are going to go missing, literally the worst place it can happen is an international

waters on a moving vessel. The search area is just so vast. There are so many possibilities.

Many of which no one's responsibilities. Right. And it's it can all be dead ends. Nobody knows

who's supposed to like take charge. I've been on two cruises myself and don't get me wrong. They

are fun. They are. But I don't think people realize how common it is for people to go missing from

ships and then never be found. Since the year 2000, there are over 200 people that have just

disappeared from cruise ships. And I could probably do an entire series just on that. In fact,

we're releasing this episode on our main feed today, this Monday. But tomorrow, we're releasing

an entirely different kind of cruise ship mystery. And these two cases don't even begin to scratch

the surface. So I hope no one has a cruise ship vacation planned anytime soon. Because after

you hear the story of Amy Lynn Bradley's disappearance, you might just be a little extra paranoid on your trip.

Amy's story begins in March of 1998. Amy was just 23 years old and a recent college graduate

who just got her own apartment and was about to start life really out on her own. Amy had just

secured a full-time job and her family decided before she started they should all go on one more

family vacation. Amy, her mother, Iva, her dad, Ron, and her 21-year-old brother Brad who was still

in college. This was going to be one last trip for the family to remember like their life together
