When 25-year-old Trish Haynes disappeared after moving in with an old childhood acquaintance, her family knew something was wrong. Months later, a chilling discovery confirmed their worst fears—Trish had been murdered, dismembered, and discarded like trash. Yet despite disturbing allegations, witness statements, and a recovered piece of her remains, no arrests have ever been made. In this episode, we walk through the heartbreaking story of Trish’s life, her final months, and her family’s ongoing fight for justice.

If you have information about Trish Haynes' case, contact New Hampshire State Police at 603-223-4381.
